Quick Review: Adding little on both the stage play and the original 1970 film, refusing even to modernize the period it is set in, this unnecessary remake definitely looks good due to its cool retro feel and slick visuals, but the tiny setting, unlikable queer characters, and simplistic plot driven by cheap intrigues and spicy talks makes "Boys in the Band" mostly for LGBT audiences, and not even the 'relevant' all-gay cast can help it feel less false and contrived.
