TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Reno Rangan The title name was good. The story looked interesting as well, but only a basic platform. Despite 90 minute film, there were empty in the middle of the narration. Or you can call it a drag. It started off quite good, revealing about two childhood friends growing together towards the end of the high school. Then suddenly everything changes between them when one of them declares to another that he's a gay. Following that, all the pros and cons of how their future relationship would be were told.Family too has some part, but it was focused from a friend's perspect how unexpectedly the things would change in such situation. There was some fun, though not that great. Actors were nice, and so the direction, even though the script was taken out from the blacklist. I think averagely worked out. With usual teenage film cliches, still enjoyable one. Maybe by the youngsters. For the rest, it is good to watch as a timepass flick, otherwise not worth it.5/10
Prismark10 Gawky childhood friends Michael (Nicolas Braun) and Matty (Hunter Cope) are about to graduate and have their high school prom and strive to lose their virginity before then.When Matty comes out as gay to Michael he accepts it but then makes a play for Matty's girlfriend while also trying to hook up Matty in gay bars where they also bump into one of their teachers.However Michael has betrayed Matty confiding in him and tries to make amends at prom night.The premise of the film while refreshingly different does also come across as another bawdy let us get laid before prom comedies which you find in movies like American Pie but with added gayness.
Tom Dooley Matty (hunter Cope) and Michael (Nicholas Braun) are best friends and have grown up together. They are now approaching their prom night but are both still virgins. Well we all know the smell of desperation oozes out of virgins like a reversed effect pheromone and so they decide they have to get some serious bedroom action.So they make a hash cake in preparation for a big celebration and go about the art of seduction - badly. Then Matty announces he is actually gay - as if this minor bombshell wasn't enough Michael starts to fall for Matty's ex girlfriend. The path to non virgindom then begins and despite Michael's attempts at helping his best bud get his rocks off, he starts to feel the strain and there inevitably will be some ups and downs (sorry awful joke that).This is just great fun. Megan Mullally has a small but perfectly formed part as Mattys mom and the clichés are kept mostly at arms length. The jokes are really well observed and everyone puts in a great performance - maybe because they were all enjoying themselves. Either way this is a film that put a smile on my face and kept it there - I hope it can do the same for you.
kosmasp The word had a different meaning a long time ago. But if we get movies with a homosexual theme (sort of, not the whole cast being that way) that are supposed to be appealing to a larger audience, it is mostly with females. In this case we do get the male perspective if you will. And it's not really telling you how to behave or not. You could actually say, that it's even so much about the sexuality (only as much as you want to make it), but how to grow up and stand up for yourself and your friends in life.Having said that, the movie is pretty funny and light, if the subject matter is not appalling to you of course. There are no dumb stereotypes (which is refreshing) and the movie itself takes the viewer seriously. Are there still some clichés in there? Of course there are. It's inevitable, but does not really matter in the whole picture.
