Myles and Brody are best friends with two very different ways of finding love. Displeased with their current love lives, they make a pact to be together if neither finds love in ten year’s time. Now two months shy of their deadline, both friends set off to do whatever it takes to avoid ending up as each other’s last resort.… Expand
So two best friends scribble down a contract on a napkin that states that should they both be single in ten years, they are to marry each other. One of the pair, “Myles” (Jack Turner) is a successful lawyer, but also more of a loving and romantic sort of lad who always ends up coming on way too strongly and getting dumped. When that happens, he habitually meets up with his pal “Brody” (Michael Adam Hamilton) for death by chocolate. He is a much more confident guy, a cop, who picks up men effortlessly but who isn’t remotely into anything longer-term than fifteen minutes then some pay-per-view. Both are out, proud and accepted by their friends and at work where just about everyone else thinks that they are really made for each other, but can’t see the wood for the trees. Then “Myles” meets “Hunter” (Adam Bucci) with whom he feels a connection, only for his pal to meet him too, and… This whole film is cheesy and predictable but the two lead efforts are quite engaging and it’s the sheer (albeit optimistic) normalcy of the film that makes it a bit different. Nobody cares that they are gay, indeed the dynamic between “Brody” and his partner “Richard” (Moronai Kanekoa) delivers some quite pithy patrol-car banter as the former’s sexual successes and kinky accoutrements are frequently the topic of conversation whilst his pal fares less well with the ladies. It’s quite a fun look at the shallowness of gay lifestyles, and in that it can be a little lazily stereotypical, but it’s still quite watchable as the conclusion looms ever larger without the merest hint of doubt!… Expand
