Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Thaneevuth Jankrajang There is no warning on how good this little film turns out to be. With a simple theme of a young handsome hustler getting "lost" in an apartment building, it goes on to portray different lives all familiar to an experienced gay man, and yet not dull and never predictable. A night in this young hustler's experience can analyze gays' psyche anywhere. Raw, sexy, emotional, without being too indulgent. At the end, one gets to ask oneself if he is getting lost, wanting to be lost, or simply arriving at home. Ben Bonenfant, as the hustler, is well-acted and well-directed. The boy is so believable as someone to be paid for sex. His facial expressions tell some complexity of being gay quite right. It is so nice to watch a film we can totally relate to. Thanks.

Guanyu4u F I admire TAL-Releasing brand in the entertainment business and their dedication to focus on LGBT issues in their work; we still need that in our era but I got to admit that some of their titles are way too shallow and depend on mere sexual plots without a solid core; this movie isn't one of them. The movie start chic with a good-looking, even sexy, main lead (even guys who are not into twinks would agree) who work as a hustler. After his session with a client, he tried to locate the building exit not knowing that the next turn would bring him more existing encounters. I should firstly praise the director's work, he really tried to squeeze the talent from his actors, an effort quite shown throughout the film. The lightning might be a bit dim but I found it matching most of the atmospheres in the movie. The movie has a timeless vibe - watchers from different times could still relate to the movie stories and the events has a sense of dream-like effect which add to the artistic value of this work. The sex scenes aren't really explicit comparing to other movies in the same genre or with similar story-line. I'll give them in terms of intensity 6 out of 10; I find this quite refreshing. The movie has a message, for viewers who like this kind of things. Still, you could enjoy it with no need to analyze the events. It could be a personal story for the protagonist or for you, it is your choice. I recommend it for a quite night view or with a new date.

mandeli-n O-kay... I hadn't read any reviews prior watching, so for a blank page like me THAT was a torture to watch. I don't know if its done for a reason. It could be - that's what I thought in the end, when the main idea became clear. Anyway, miraculously, "Strapped" turned up to be a highly rewarding movie, and while I still can't say I enjoyed watching it, I don't suppose one hour and a half is too high a price for what you get in the end.Thank you, Joseph Graham. That was truly a pleasure when a maze turned into a labyrinth.

aleksandarsk I promise you I've seen porn movies with better plot. Actually, don't expect a plot, there is no any. No scene worth remembering either. The dialogs are the poorest you'll find in cinema. The characters lack any depth whatsoever. They are all one dimensional. This movie is intellectually offensive, visually poor, artistically waste of people's time. An eclectic, dysfunctional sum of terrible gay clichés (the hustler for example does everything except kiss. We haven't seen that before). You may think, well, it might be a sexy movie worth watching for the actors and the sex scenes. Wrong. There is hardly a sex scene that the average gay viewer will find sexy. You will not see men making love or anything of that sort. Shallow, empty, and very unintelligent movie on all levels. One highlight - the Russian guy in the first scene is beautiful to watch. Watch the first scene if you can and walk away.
