it was different than a lot of the gay themed movies we see. you see are two young teens that meet at first glance and then again later on after their meeting on the train. they decide to head and hang with each other all the while getting into all kinds of trouble. For one its something he hasnt done before or experienced. The other boy its because he has everything already and is bored so he needs this things, stealing, shooting guns and kidnapping to keep him excited and interested in life.

They also have other issues back at home one lives with his mom in the lower parts of the city. While the rich kid that has it all stays far away from there and parents are seldom around to provide any kind of structure. They keep uping the stakes until one day after following a woman home. They (one of them) decides to kidnap her and thats really where the story starts to heat up. The rich kid (also interested in his friend but doesnt speak on it) and isnt interested in her in anyway other than something thats fun and funny. The other is more inclined to sympathize with her and starts to fall for her.

I thought it was pretty interesting how its touched on but not put out there too much. His longing and fascination with his friend, he doesnt really press it on him. He treats him well and gives him time and attention. All and all i found Out of Hand to be something that is watching worthy if only to see that all gay films don't have guys running in drag, speaking in a girlish tone or just fitting every label. They put on gays in general Out of Hand...kept the story in hand,acted nicely and directed also in a way that allowed the actor/actresses to do their thing and add something to their character.
