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

If anything about this scenario sounds remotely interesting, it's not.

Jonathan Padget, Washington Post

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.

Jason Anderson, Globe and Mail

It's a better-than-average gay relationship film, largely because neither plot mechanics nor the same old camp intrude much.

Despite cliches, film does click.
