Press Play: 4th Man Out

Note: I know it has been quite too long since my last post. Nothing more to say there in this. Instead, we'll discuss a movie. I'll try to make it a Monday thing, but of course today's the exception.

4th Man Out

It came out earlier this year, Netflix exclusive possibly? Well, the reason I discovered it was through the interesting library of gay movies that are on there. I've got quite a list to watch, so I had the time to give this a chance. I won't always write about movies like this, but since it is still fresh in my mind, I figure I might as well breathe life back into this with this subject.

The star of the show is Adam. We start the movie off with the first incident, that being Adam wants to tell his friends that he's gay. It's a bit difficult for him when everyone seems to believe he's straight. He works up the nerve to do so when he believes his best friend, Chris, is mostly drunk. However, all three friends seem to be sober to hear enough. After the initial shock, all three of them realize how it doesn't change Adam as being their friend and want to do what they can to help him in the romance department.

I won't go into greater details over the premise of the movie, but it is definitely quite an interesting movie. The bro-mance between Adam and Chris is shaken up between subtle hints, but the prime focus is on Adam's attempts at love. It's easily relatable to anything that people go through in that situation. I did enjoy the way the movie ended, even if it is the traditional happy ending set-up. But only if you like that sort of thing should you give it a try.
