4th Man Out (2015)

Director: Andrew Nackman

Stars: Parker Young, Evan Todd, Chord Overstreet...

Length: 1h 26m

Language: English

A car mechanic in a small, working class town comes out of the closet to his unsuspecting, blue-collar best friends.

From my experience, movies with a strong coming out of the closet theme often make me anxious. Those moments in the movie when you feel like there’s a quiet before the storm and you’re anticipating what’s going to happen next, how the family or the friends are going to react, they always have an emotional, even slight adrenaline rush to them.

What I liked about this movie is of course its positive and optimistic approach, which I always endorse. I liked how the gay character is portrayed like this next-door type of guy which made him feel pretty relatable IMO and it was just nice and refreshing to see this type of a character for a change, after watching many movies where gay men are portrayed in a stereotypical manner. Other than that, there were some genuinely funny moments to me, like when he tries dating and meets all these weird guys. His friends also get more funny as time passes and they get more comfortable with the idea of their friend being gay.

It’s a positive movie, but unlike some others out there, it’s not unrealistic, which is a combination that I guess is really difficult to achieve, so hats off to the director.

However, there were some things I found annoying and that’s when all these supposedly grown-up characters act and live their lives immaturely and when all they do and talk about is who’s sleeping with who, who’s scoring, and when they make their life mission to get laid. I’ve never been a fan of this type of humour. ********prude much********** LOL but honestly, instead of my friends trying to set me up with random dudes, I’d rather they just back the hell off and let me go through my things alone, especially if we’re 20-something like in this movie.

Rating: 4/5
