Well-rounded collection of gay-themed shorts.

Top Critic

Features a quartet of efforts more reflective of the filmmakers' career aspirations than of a desire for meaningful expression.

Top Critic

Requires only four titles for its 87-minute running time, a sign of how much more substantial and ambitious work in the field has become.

Mixed bag.

Top Critic

While Strand's gay-shorts series took a tentative step toward maturity with 2000's Boys Life 3, this fourth anthology represents a full-blown regression.
