Summary: A pleasant breath of fresh air
Comment: I heard about Shelter on Afterelton.com, read the reviews, watched the trailer, and being a fan of Gay Cinema, became really curious as to how this one was going to be. I've seen a lot of gay cinema; and I find it unfortunate to say that a large quantity of it has been... less then par. It's either bad writing, low production value to the point of hurting the story telling, it's too weird....
Shelter is a very well told, well produced film that deserves every award it's won. The acting is good, the shots are beautiful and for once, it's a gay film that [SPOILERS]
...actually ends happily. I must say that I found this just as, if not slightly more enjoyable then Brokeback Mountian

Summary: Gimme Shelter...
Comment: Sometimes, rarely, after having watched dozens upon dozens of disappointing films, you get lucky and come across one that not only lives up to, but surpasses all the praise that more often than not was just hype anyways. And... also sometimes, you go back to watch it a second time just to see if your first impression was correct, and you are horrified to see that you were mistaken and that this is just a lousy film and you don't know what you were thinking. Have I sufficiently confused you? Then let me just say that this film, "Shelter", was one of the most beautiful, surprising, well acted, noble films I've ever seen. These actors, most of whom are either unknown or not "stars", are so, so much better than the small but undying, rotating, irritating crop of so called superstars that monopolize every churned out piece of Hollywood garbage. The performances here are so seamless, modest, and real, that you feel that you are watching just that, real life. Of course, watching real life can be boring, and what most actors and films of today completely fail at is to not only make the story interesting, but enables it to go beyond being entertainment to give it that intangible element of realism that truly moves you. In this film you feel their pain, joy, loneliness, frustration, and liberation in your very gut, and that is rare for films today, especially a "small' film that does not bang you over the head with special effects or try and bring a tear to your eye with overacting and ear splitting sweeping music. Though this film has a gay story line, it is relevant to anyone who is alive, and it's message about love, loyalty, and being true to yourself is for everyone. I will not go on and i will not tell you the story line as plenty of other reviewers have already done this, and some of them very well. I will only say that as a person who grew up loving the movies and having been disappointed in 95% of all the films made in the last 25 years, it is so refreshing, enjoyable, and heartening to come across a film as beautiful as this one. It is poetry. It is perfect. It hopefully makes some people aware that there are different and positive qualities that define a "family." It is the best film of it's kind that I have ever seen. And the actors, director, writer, etc..should all be extremely proud of their accomplishment, and, as a disheartened, quality- starved filmgoer, i thank them all.

Summary: Loaded with angst but...
Comment: The beginning of this film had me frustrated and angry for Zach. I kept asking myself why allowed himself to be used by his pathetic excuse for a sister. But he was the one in the family with heart and responsibility. Then we meet Shawn. The brother of Gabe who is a good friend of Zach's. The two form a friendship again even after knowing each other for years. The chemistry between them is awesome and the one....only one...(darn) heated love scene, is electrifying. It was a good movie. The only complaint I had was I wanted more good sexy fun between the two men, and less brow beating agony. But I do get the producers were looking for mainstream, and mainstream love to see gay men punish themselves...yawn. Buy it. It was still a feel good film worth the time.
