Taking upon himself to investigate Lee's case further, and helps Lee get charges dropped on him. Ben confesses his feelings for Lee, who also has been going through a childhood trauma of his father leaving him for another man. But soon Lee will have to face his own feelings for Ben.
The ending where Lee suddenly feels love for Ben is random. Yes, we see traces where the two men bond over hiking and zest for life, there is never any solid reason to show the two men falling for each other. Yes, the two begin to form a sort of ‘opposites attract’ chemistry but everything happens too fast. The conflict of Chuck and Jane falling in love, then breaking up and then again coming back together was as random and the leading men's chemistry. I bet the film was made on a super low budget. The only decent thing about the film was good looking Lee and his acting. Rest everyone was just meh at best. Its a scrappy film, that bit more than it can chew in its aspirations. This film has weak plot, bad screenplay, average acting and a very choppy edit. The intentions are ok but the flaws are too many to overlook. (3.5/10)
