Shelter (II) (2007)
2/10
I should have walked out
28 August 2008
I would have walked out of this film after half an hour, but my date insisted on staying since we'd paid for the tickets. Afterwards, he apologized, and agreed that we should have left early.

On the one hand, it's nice to see a gay film that's trying to be something more than a pointless parade of naked guys. On the other hand, this film hasn't found anything else to offer.

On the plus side: * Reasonably well shot * A gay film that actually tries to show grown up relationships and responsible human beings.

On the downside: * Very weak script * Painfully predictable plot * Bad casting. (There's a complete lack of chemistry between the two romantic leads) * Weak editing (The film keeps cutting away from the action to show long surfing montages that don't advance the plot in any way.)
