Dream Boat (2017)
A cruise ship and 3,000 men – it is a universe without heteros and women that usually remains a mystery to the outside world. Once a year the Dream Boat sets sail for a cruise exclusively for gay men where most passengers are united by the wish to live life authentically as themselves in a protected place.

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Having been on a Gay cruise I can say most of this film is accurate but a LOT of other points of interest are left out. But the main problem with this film is that the five guys it focuses on are just plain incoherent.
How can you have any type of expectation from a gang bang trip? How can you search for a soul mate in a place made for sex? Why the need to dress up like a bunch of 5 year old on Halloween night? How can you think like a teenager in your 30's? This baffled me like crazy. Really unexpected discussions between grown people. Actually psychological undeveloped grown people.
Honestly, why did they make a documentary about mostly gays guys whose family/religion doesn't accept (maybe that's the reason they go on a gay cruise, but still they are repressed as if they were in main land) Mostly ppl who scaped their country to some European place cuz being gay was a torture in their homeland, which is something gay people deal with (I know, I am gay) But all this movie doe sis showing how gay people act when they're at outside the laws, like their only purpose is to find someone with great abs, sexy bearded face, otherwise, they are not worth it Real gay people as not as shallow (at least I want to believe that), we don't go from cruise to cruise to find our best sex experience which might or might not be the love of our lives All this movie makes is showing gays from many cultures/problems (handicap, fat, ugly, not tanned enough, old) everything that society sees as a homophobe facts is represented here, as if all gay people are so damn selfish Take my advice, even if you live in a homophobe country and want to feel connected to people with the same traumas, stay away from this, this is the worst example of how a gay person is...a person
Saw this film last night at the Sydney Queer Film Festival with 3 mates. We all found it rather disappointing as we'd all been on a Cruise Ship before and had a lot more fun than these poor devils seem to have experienced....the men that were chosen to showcase all had religious upbringings and while this is not itself a bad thing, it weighed too heavily on the course of the movie....the cinematography was excellent but overall that couldn't save the limp story-line
