In reference to small, gay-indie movies, I've seen a lot worse than Wrecked, though not by much.
In reality, the only positives to mention is the lead character, Ryan (Richards) is actually not that bad and the different angles/shots kept me somewhat interested. The only real reason to see this, for those interested in porn, is the excessive amount of sexual activity and nudity. I wouldn't even call this soft-porn, though it's borderline (you supposedly see full-penetration, but after a second glance, it's obviously not.) The movie's only 73 minutes, and I would say a good 30+ minutes or close to half, is sexual situations.
That's fine, if that's what you want to get into: a porno with something resembling a plot. And the plot's not really that strong. We have Ryan trying to move past his ex and begin anew as a theatre star when all of a sudden (!) his ex returns promising he's cleaned up his drug addicted history. Of course, without a spoiler, it's easy to tell that not five minutes pass before he's using again, both the drugs and Ryan.
Apparently Ryan's not too bright, or simply wants to be in a lying, abusive relationship. I'm no psychologist, and I guess there's millions out there actually seeking a partner void of conscious and looking for trouble. But, nevertheless, that's basically the storyline and the downward spiral of Ryan's life.
All of this said, I actually applaud the director(s) and writer(s) for not holding back. If they wanted to show the explicit scenes, they did without reservation. (And yes, I would say the same things above if this involved the heterosexual realm.) But, I do have to comment that what they wrapped around Wrecked, i.e. the shallow storyline, was not worth the time.
