This is the second vertical AI BL drama I've sat through, and honestly I went in knowing better. I had it on while I was doing cardio at the gym, and what struck me was just how much the plot echoed the last one I watched. Same step brother romance angle, same mystery girlfriend showing up near the end, same extra guy pining after one of the leads. Genuinely the only thing going for it was the runtime, the whole thing wrapped up in forty five minutes flat. The setup kicks off with Finn moving schools because his mom just married into money. He finds out his new step brother Aiden goes to the same place, and he's warned to keep his distance from him. Their first run in at school is rocky, just like you'd expect, but there's this odd pull between them neither can shake off. Finn keeps telling himself not to read into it because Aiden's straight and openly homophobic. Things shift when some kids start bullying Finn and the student council president, Ryan, steps in to ...
What the hell!! Very rarely have I seen where there is absolutely no character development and the viewers are just left to make up their own version on why a certain individual is behaving the way he is or doing things that he is. This film is unbelievable. Despite having a very good looking man as one of the leads. It was just the huge discrepancy of what this movie could've been and what it ended up being.
Lincoln is a 18 year old young man with a happy life with friends and a girlfriend. Except he is also closet gay, which he accidentally discovers about himself after being propositioned by a older man. One such occasion he meets Minh, an Vietnames half black immigrant, who makes Lincoln do stuff that he wouldn't do normally. He forces him to take his father's boat down the river to explore unexplored while professing his love for Lincoln. They bind with each other but soon reality dawns. Lincoln goes back to his girlfriend. Minh continues to look for his ideal boyfriend / partner. He finds a man in a bar, tales him to a secret place and then just kills him and this s where the movie just ends. I am not kidding.
It seems like the film was supposed to be an odd love story between this rich white boy and a Vietnamese immigrant, but sadly the film doesn't go anywhere. The story takes forever to get started...and ends up going nowhere! It just stops with no resolution at all. Actor playing Lincoln was super attractive and even acted well but Minh's accent was hard to comprehend at certain places. The production quality of the movie was very poor, grainy, poor audio and terrible direction and screenplay. The stories don't hold together. Emphasis shifts from one character to another.
Don't be fooled by the poster. Please dont waste your time on this film at all. Besides the extremely good looking lead actor, nothing about this film is worth investing your time in. (1/10)
