Cruise Control

About This Movie

Cruise Control is like a snapshot of early 2000s queer nightlife, capturing that awkward tension of seeking connection but always falling short. The pacing feels a bit off at times, mirroring Josh's own rhythm in the club scene. It's funny, sure, but there's a layer of melancholy that hangs in the air. Performances are pretty much what you'd expect from indie comedies of that era—some hits and some misses. The film doesn’t rely on flashy effects; it’s all about the dialogue and the relatable, if a bit frustrating, dating scenarios. I think it’s distinctive in how it portrays the challenges of LGBTQ+ dating without ever feeling overly dramatic or preachy. Just a slice of life that resonates, you know?
