As a gay man and an avid movie lover all I can say is don't waste a minute of time or a penny of money on this. The editing is bad while the 'artistic' touches waste time and the screenplay all add up to one of the worst movies of the year.

Very sad movie about a young teenager living in a lower middle class and not knowing how to deal with his sexual orientation or coming out. The scenes of casual sex with older men are heart breaking.

A young man not knowing what to do with his life. So relatable to the young generation these days who abuse drugs and mess things up. And Harris Dickenson's acting is good.

Sad movie, anxious in same scenes. Claustrophobic. It reminds me "Ragazzi di vita" of Pier Paolo Pasolini, but these bunch of guys are not proletarians but middle class.

Good acting, good plot, and I enjoyed the movie more than I thought. Hope they pick up the story where it left off, because I wanted to see how the characters continued to develope.

An aimless young man (Harris Dickinson) hangs with his buds at a Brooklyn beach, but spends his nites cruising online for older men.

This film feels foreign in style:An aimless young man (Harris Dickinson) hangs with his buds at a Brooklyn beach, but spends his nites cruising online for older men. He even scores a girlfriend to help him deny his inevitable attraction. This film feels foreign in style: scenes play out in real time with minimal activity or dialogue, there's no musical accompaniment and lots of lingering close-up shots of Dickinson's inner conflict. Dickinson has a model's beauty and build, but it doesn't distract from his his genuinely compelling performance. Still, the lackadaisical pace and lack of narrative thrust hinder the full appreciation of this intimate, moody character study.… Expand

A well crafted movie that exploits the inherent drama of "coming out" in an unwelcoming environment.

Add drugs, booze and an unsympathetic group of friends to the mix and you have a complex, painful brew of frustrated, destructive yearning and self reflection - all exquisitely shown with masterful movie making. However, the movie lacks a third act and there's no resolution of the main troubled character.… Expand

O filme é muito parado. Achei que seria bem melhor... Poucas cenas de sexo e poucos problemas sendo resolvidos. Na minha opinião, o filme não traz nada de novo a ser abordado.
