The Backstreet Boys are celebrating 21 years of coordinated outfits and questionable lyrics ("sadness is beautiful, loneliness is tragical"?!), and in honor of this milestone, they're releasing a documentary.

Show 'Em What You're Made Of was filmed over two years, and will follow Nick Carter, Brian Littrell, A.J. McLean, Kevin Richardson, and Howie Dorough as they share what their lives are like today. In a press release, the movie is described as showcasing "new and old tensions that need confronting and resolving."
