Save your money for something good and enjoyable
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

"In Their Room: London" is a documentary from 2013, so this one will have its 5th anniversary next year. The writer and director is Travis Mathews and this is his third entry to the ITR film series. After Frisco and Berlin, the action moves to London, but honestly, there is nothing in here that has any connection to London at all, except maybe that the protagonists are speaking English. We see interviews with a bunch of homosexual men and some of the stuff they say has to do with their sexuality, while some totally hasn't. To me, to be honest, it sounded like rambling that was sometimes pretentious, sometimes pointless, but never poignant. I see Mathews has pretty much exclusively gay-themed movies in his body of work, but judging from what I saw in this one here, it's nothing of quality at all. I hope gay audiences are seeing this as well and not simply hypnotized by the fact that this is about people who are like them because as heteros with taste in film do not simply like a movie because most people are heteros and homosexuals should act accordingly. I give this one here a major thumbs-down. Not recommended at all. The filmmaker tried to make it interesting by including people of different ethnicities and ages, but it is just not working out in terms of story-telling at all.
