As a gay man, I was pretty embarrassed watching this and couldn't make it to the end. Do queens like this really still exist? The whole "film" felt like an ad for World Gym or New York Sports Club. The people "interviewed" all struck me as super stupid and they all said the exact same thing: "I used to feel ugly, but now that I go to the gym I have more boyfriends." I wasn't expecting much when I spotted this on Netflix, but the director didn't even meet my low expectations. And a documentary? Did the director skip the documentary course at film school? There are a couple moments when the film pretends to expose a serious topic, for example drugs or eating disorders, and the only way you can tell is because the incessant background club music pauses for a few seconds. Otherwise, this struck me as a film trying to romanticize the mid-to-late 90's, when urban queens were required by law to work out. But for a more accurate look at contemporary gay experience, you're advised to watch Modern Family.
