Not much love.

"I wish I could report that this charismatic and capable team, directed by the busy Joe Mantello, transported me vividly and uncompromisingly into the dark ages of homosexual life in these United States, and that I shuddered and sobbed in sympathy. But even trimmed from two acts to an intermission-free 110 minutes, the show left me largely impatient and unmoved.

Part of this is a matter of the miscasting of the production’s biggest marquee names, the seriously talented Mr. Parsons and Mr. Quinto. More important, though, is that this real-time drama only rarely seems to be happening in real time, with real feelings."
