Actor Derek Magyar makes an impressive feature debut in this somber video drama about a financially savvy but emotionally distant male escort. Go to Full Review

If anything about this scenario sounds remotely interesting, it's not. Go to Full Review
Jason Anderson Globe and Mail 07/06/2007
2.5/4
Boy Culture is an undemanding but sufficiently engaging serving of smut and sentiment. As such, it reclaims territory that queer cinema has largely ceded to TV shows like Queer as Folk, The L Word and Six Feet Under. Go to Full Review

1.5/4
A traditional vapid romantic comedy. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Audiences outside gay cinema will, frankly, probably find it too callow to emotionally invest in. However, for those who do see it, they will likely be surprised, and entertained, by its arch insights and near-camp bearing. Go to Full Review

A C @angelalovessweetmovies 10/09/2023 Loved Boy Culture!! Great cast and the writing was so good!! A great story and mix of romance, fun, humor and heart!! Thanks for an enjoyable film 🤍🤍 See more Philip P 08/06/2023 Smart and funny with wonderful performances. Surprisingly moving as the lead character learns from an older gay man the value of taking emotional risks in both life and love. Sexy too! See more 07/08/2018 Pretty entertaining and very fluffy. Some interesting ideas and a few scenes were chuckle-worthy. I found it a bit cheesy at times especially the end but there were some things I really related to and it was just a cute movie. I can't complain. 2.5/5 See more 06/12/2016 A great indie gay flick. Great performances, hot guys, beautiful chemestry, entertaining, and a great story. See more 05/20/2015 I'm biased, but I continue to think they did a marvelous job adapting from the 1995 novel of the same title. See more 04/09/2015 A male prostitutes narrates his life of complicated relationships. None of the characters were likable nor did the plot interest me, it is essentially a low budget soft core porn.
