Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

There's a richly promising premise here that, amazingly, few other coming out films have tackled: how do you come out without losing your best buddies, especially if they're regular working-class, beer-drinking, pussy-chasing guys. Unfortunately, Fourth Man Out doesn't manage to negotiate the territory without resorting to the most annoying and lazy stereotypes. So just about every other gay man that our hero Adam meets is a snippy queen. And the only one that's not a snippy queen is a lying, cheating, sleazy douche-gag. Okay, this is a comedy, but seriously... does the core audience for this kind of film really find the pretentious fairy that amusing? The chorus of straight best friends are no less stereotypical, but somewhat better drawn, and the humour less forced. Still, Fourth Man Out never quite lives up to its early promise, and the definitive film about how best buddies survive one of them coming out is still to be written.

(Spoilers) This a story about a guy portrayed as very "normal" who at 24 y/o tells his lifelong buddies he is Gay. Well, he starts with his best friend.There were a number of things here that were very good - his friends were generally supportive, the dialogue was mostly realistic, the picture quality, scenery and filming was well done. Three of the four main characters were very good looking, in shape, fairly well muscled. The story was entertaining and there were several pretty good comical situations. I really liked the part where his best friend is acting funny upon hearing the news and the lead says "I'm still the same guy." I applaud the inclusion of common sense, which we need more of.However, this is supposed to be present day - it is hard to imagine that his friends, sister, or parents did not have the slightest inkling he wasn't straight after knowing him all his life. There were a number of places where I wasn't sure what message was being given by the film or was it just poor attempts at humor? For example, the lead's first date was with an unattractive man who misrepresented his online dating photo. When the lead isn't interested, the date asks the lead character if he is shallow, only wanting someone good looking. Uh, no, the date is obnoxious and quirky as well. This date pops up a couple more times and far too much time is wasted on him, again poor attempts at humor. But later when the lead (finally) meets someone presumably not loaded with personal issues, they talk for about 15 seconds and the movie is over.I didn't understand why the lead, when explaining he was Gay and his parents didn't seem to get it, he had to put something in his mouth and simulate oral sex. "that kind of Gay" he explains. (????) I found the mother's instant acceptance strange, the only thing she was "upset" about was they missed out on sharing his "real" life. Really? How could our lead have completely missed that his parents have been totally accepting/non-judgemental for his entire 24 years? I suppose its possible.It was funny enough and the guys were plenty good looking that I'll probably watch it again. But as others have said, the stereotypes just won't go away.

I rented this the other night on On-Demand--with great trepidation. I have seen "indie" films before on the subject of coming out, and most of them made me wretch because they were so bad. Did I ever find a nice, refreshing surprise in "Fourth Man Out."Adam, an auto mechanic who could live in Anytown, U.S.A, decides on his 24th birthday that it is time he came out to his uber-straight buddies. He is tired (and weren't we all at one time or another) of playing the straight game; tired of denying his true feelings about who he would rather be with. Trouble is, Adam is kind of a wimp and simply cannot find the right time to tell his buds. Oh, that time does finally come, with some funny/some touching results. I applaud director Andrew Nackman for dealing with his subject matter like an adult. The characters in this film all seemed real, and if you're a gay man, you've probably encountered them all. The farting scene had me in stitches! I also applaud the writer, Aaron Dancik, for making his characters real and not caricatures. I have seen so many films where a "straight" director did not have a clue how to treat his actors. They either had the acting range of a turnip or were taken so over-the-top you just wanted to slap them until your arms got tired. Parker Young plays Chris (the best friend), and Evan Todd plays Adam, the guy who just cannot get out of his own way.Rated "R" for language and adult situations. There is no nudity or male/male sex--either implied or actual. Recommended.

Evan Todd gives a stellar performance, in this average movie, of just a normal work-a-day guy coming out to his friends. He's tired of living the lie so he spills the beans to his life long buddies and they learn to live with it. Each one has his own female 'relationship issues' so now their adult life bring a new relationship issue between themselves.Director: Andrew Nackman & Writer: Aaron Dancik keep the gay issue lite because this shouldn't be an issue between friends that have been friends since childhood. There are funny moments as Adam (Evan Todd) tries to meet up with other guys. Some are just too weird for words. Nothing seems to go well and his friends want to help - but how?4th Man Out is easy entertainment. A coming out flick that doesn't throw challenging scenes in the story. It's just about an average guy, who everyone seem to like, becoming himself.
