Chain Reaction

Summary: Overview
Review: "Johan, a cute innocent young guy, enters a gay bar for the first time. The bar is quiet and Johan becomes transfixed by the barman... Amazed by his beauty Johan can't take his eyes off him. His trance is broken by the arrival of the barman's young and good looking boyfriend."

"At first he's amazed by their sensuous kissing across the bar and then he's disappointed at his own innocence. Johan contemplates leaving when a gorgeous hooker walks in. Johan, not knowing he's for sale, decides to stay to see if he can attract the guy's attention. Could this be the one... his first man to man sexual experience?"

"This is just the beginning of a chain of desire as Johan experiences heated passion and sexual fulfilment for the first time. Eight gorgeous models by Bel Ami join his in a chain reaction of heated passions."- From Pride Video

Summary: A Heartfelt Tale of Finding One's Identity
Review: Dear Amazonians,

"The Chain Reaction", starring Johan Paulik, is a sweet story about how a young man comes to accept his homosexuality. For all of us in the gay community, of which I am a proud member, coming to accept our sexuality is a very puzzling and tumultuous period in our lives. So when Johan sets foot in a gay bar for the first time, and feels uncomfortable looking at the barman, we can feel his discomfort.

There is no actual dialog in this film, except for a voice purporting to be Johan's, constantly asking himself if it is all right to have attractions and emotions for other men. As the film progresses, Johan becomes more comfortable with himself, and finally finds himself added to the other characters' "chain" of attraction. This film does not show any "hardcore" sex. If graphic sex is what you are looking for, look elsewhere. However, if you want to see a very believable coming of age film involving gay youth, then I highly recommend this title. I watched this film several years ago, and it led to my own "coming out." As of this writing, I have been out of the closet for over a year, and I owe it, partly at least, to this beautiful production.

I hope you enjoy this The Chain Reaction as much as I did!

Summary: Get this movie...
Review: I was hoping this movie would be either a porn or a documentary. It turned out to be neither. Although I'm an admitted fan of the Bel Ami boys - especially Johan - I was pretty disappointed. It's about as close to an R-Rated gay porn as you can get.

It's trying to be a documentary about a young gay's "struggle with being gay" (Can you say... Cliche?) and it is missing the mark completely. The only dialog in the movie is a British voice using an annoying echo to represent Johan's thoughts. I'm sure even the real Johan is disappointed with the "thoughts" which are more like random ramblings.

If you like looking at naked Bel Ami bodies (presented in the "Playboy Channel" style) and are willing to use ALOT of imagination, this is your film. But be warned, there are much better ways to spend your dollars and see these same bodies doing much more. These are all XXX gay porn stars. This must have been a walk in the park for them.

My advice is not to waste your time or money on this movie.
