    Variety | Robert Koehler

    All-encompassing drama. Read full review

    Los Angeles Times | Kevin Thomas

    At once a sexy soap opera, at times lurid and bathetic, and also a gritty cautionary tale made by a filmmaker honest enough to have it both ways. Read full review

    San Francisco Chronicle | Mick LaSalle

    If anyone wants to watch naked men in the shower, naked men doing erotic dancing, naked men in bed and almost-naked men pumping iron, this is the film to see. Read full review

    The New York Times | Dana Stevens

    There is a real subject here, and it is handled with intelligence and care. Read full review

    L.A. Weekly | Chuck Wilson

    Mostly, Shafer and co-writer Gregory Hinton lack a strong-minded viewpoint, or a sense of humor, about a world in which the DJ has the power to unify, if only for a night, men of godlike beauty and the mortals who worship them. Read full review

    Boston Globe |

    Like ''Showgirls'' and ''Glitter,'' the most entertaining moments here are unintentional. Read full review

    Austin Chronicle | Marrit Ingman

    It's too bad Shafer spent his budget making a fiction feature instead of just shooting a documentary about the scene. So much of the film is melodramatic kitsch, but there's still a movie in here. Read full review

    Village Voice | Dennis Lim

    Even from deep in a K-hole, you'd need about 10 seconds to figure out the remaining plot twists in this jaded muscle-queen morality tale. Read full review
