You know who they are: it's those guys with the close-cropped haircuts, buff-shaved bodies, piercings and tribal tatoos in all the right places. It's those boys who are inTo the circuit party scene... it's a brotherhood... it's a total roving party from one city to the next. The White Party, the Black & Blue Party, the Blue Ball... The scene has a darker, dirtier side and both parallel elements of the circuit world are explored in this sexy, lively reality-based film.

Didn't fly close enough to the sun
It was easy to get through this entire movie, don't get me wrong. It is just definitely not worth a second viewing because you know you didn't miss anything. This is a documentary focusing on boys going to the be-all end-all circuit party, the White Party (or is it White Ball?). They got a group of three guys (Scott, Jason and Todd) who, while interesting, really don't add much to the overall point of the movie. The Jason has and Scott IS dating Todd when the movie is filmed. If anything they show us the most average experience one might have at a circuit party. Their personal drama is what makes their segments interesting but in the end does nothing more than prove something that could have happened at any club or watering hole anywhere. The next boy is Tone (prounounced Tony and hereafter spelled Tony cuz spelling Tony as Tone is just stupid). He is the junkie of the experimental grouping. We have all heard tales of how bad the drugs are at these parties and he is supposed to be the posterboy for that addiction. If he is the worst of it, I am not nearly as worried as I was. He was, at best, a part-time junkie. Don't get me wrong, Tony does have a drug problem, but did not seem nearly as profound as we are led to believe. The last boy is Brandon, who is the one who has never been to one of these circuit parties before. Again, nothing profound. His segment does show how even a straight lace like Brandon can easily give into the "atmosphere" of those parties which was interesting. Overall, this movies does not offer anything about circuit parties that you do not already know. I am saying that as someone who has never even thought about going to one. But, as someone who has never gone it was interesting to see some of the inner-workings and what not. The non-stop scenes full of shirtless hotties does help this movie's case. All of the five main boys are pretty cute, too. One thing about this movie is the selection of those five main boys. It introduces more guys but does not go into their 'characters' too much, which is a shame. I wanted to know more about all the second class characters as the main boys I had figured out early on. The movie limited itself far too much, it should have been longer and more indulgent on the ugly side of circuit parties. If you have been to a circuit party (even a minor one, I am guessing) you don't need to see this movie. You already know. If not, it is worth a look but just don't go out of your way to see it.

Great documentary!
What a great look into the dark side of pleasureland for grown up boys who get caught up in the drama of the circuit world. Though not all agree that its always a true case with everyone that loves to go to the dance parties for the love of the music and the scenery. It can be said that for a few that get caught up of the mystery of addiction, drugs, and sex when all get mixed up in one setting, that it can take a toll of friendships, relationships and the human body. I loved the followup of the main characters and hope they can make a continuation of how they have changed since the making of the movie.

Not the Greatest Film
Being Gay, I knew people like this that are portrayed in this movie. Not friends, just acquaintances that remained on the outskirts of my existence. Party, drugs, booze, cheating, lies.....all a part of this lifestyle. It's rather a sad movie and it's behavior like this that prevents us from being treated equals in this society. Unfortunately, these people still exist and as I get older, I hope one day these people will become extinct so we can gain the respect from ALL that we deserve.

When Reviews Lie
I bought this on Amazon after having been misled again by bogus reviews. This DVD is a waste of time. It does not succeed on any level. It's a bunch of silly, shallow gay men acting like fools. I expected Club Kids with great costumes like Michael Alig popularized in NYC. The only message here is that drugs can be dangerous. Gee whiz, I didn't know that. The drug abuse is not scary enough to drive anyone to rehab. It is not "fabulous, honest, engaging, or provocative." It is boring and not erotic as suggested by the cover.

DVD
They call it a gay film, but I don't why. It was more of a story of a few friends who went on holiday + were talking of the bars + clubs + their drinks. We found this DVD was simply boring. Honestly don't waste your money on purchasing this DVD, it was not worth the money.
