An indie grab bag. Read full review

Philadelphia InquirerDesmond Ryan
Not up to the freshness and inventiveness of its predecessors.

New York Daily NewsElizabeth Weitzman
A rare opportunity to see shorts without having to spring for a ticket to a film festival. Read full review

Mr. ShowbizKevin Maynard
A modestly entertaining ride.

Film.comErnest Hardy
The latest installment in the "Boys Life" series has just as many hits as misses -- more misses, actually -- but the high points easily stand alongside past triumphs. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKevin Thomas
Lively, amusing collection of five films that take a wry look at being gay. Read full review

Boston GlobeLoren King
A mixed bag. With such a brief running time, there are not enough high points to recommend the five shorts that make up the film.

L.A. WeeklyChuck Wilson
More problematic is "Inside Out," starring Jason Gould, who also wrote and directed, based on his own experiences as the son of Barbra Streisand and Elliott Gould. Read full review

New York PostLou Lumenick
Worthwhile mainly because of "Inside Out," a 28-minute autobiographical film written, directed and starring Jason Gould, who not-so-incidentally is Barbra Streisand's son.

San Francisco ChronicleBob Graham
The show takes little more than an hour to finish and less than a minute to forget, while politely reminding us not only that gay movies have fallen on hard times but also that they refuse to give up. Read full review

Professionally produced and surprisingly tame. Read full review

Village VoiceDennis Lim
French director David Fourier's six-minute mock-instructional free association, "Majorettes in Space," is alone almost worth the price of admission. Read full review

VarietyDennis Harvey
A typical grab bag of works of varying depth, all of them breezy and entertaining. Read full review

The New York TimesA.O. Scott
Pallid compared with the flaming id of television's "Will and Grace," the happy swizzle stick Jack, who's all appetites. When series television is more entertaining than a series of short independent films, that's something to worry about. Read full review
