Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
overthecounterart This is a film that differs from the rest. It sends a deep message but isn't in your face about it. It was an enjoyable film and kept me entertained, and i recommend it to everyone because no matter who you are I'm sure you will appreciate the overall message of it. The cast is what makes this film work, and the fact that it shows a different perspective on a particular situation is what had me hooked from the beginning. The Jewish parents in this film are definitely relatable and comical. When i first was asked to watch it I didn't really want to because it was a film about a Jewish gay man, but once i saw it I was happy i did because it wasn't in your face about those subjects, it was overall about a more deeper issue, which is the issue of acceptance and loving your family for who they are. It was delightfully handled and seems like it was made for an entire family to enjoy.
asaelmart2009 Just recently saw the movie in Atlanta, it was amazing!!! it nice to see a movie that can relate to today's families, and not another typical gay movies were sexual encounter goes over the top.This is a great movie to see with anyone, family, friends, gay or straight, it's very funny but at the same time it clearly pass the message to everyone who's watching of acceptance and love. Am very pleased with this movie and hope it makes it to the theaters nationwide so everyone can really enjoy it. Great work by the cast and Excellent JOB to the Director of the movie. Wish the best!I highly recommended for people to go and watch it if is coming near you, it will be worth it.
Sally Elias I saw Oy Vey My Son Is Gay last week when I was visiting a friend in NYC. They were doing a screening of the film for amfAR.After the cartoon intro, the actual film started off odd and very choppy. It was almost uncomfortable to even watch. As the film progressed, I had high hopes for the movie. A good cast and with so much going on in the gay community, a good chance to really talk about relevant subject matters through comedy.I was disappointed on all levels. The film was simply embarrassing to watch. Instead of focusing on relevant subject matter it perpetuated obvious stereotypes of the GLBT community. I'm a proud parent of a gay child and I was offended that this was the best that they could come up with.I'd highly recommend seeing something else. It was waste of an hour of my time. No good messages to walk away with. I doubt it will ever make it into a theater.
geierdmtr I watched this movie last week and its an excellent attempt on a Jewish/gay comedy.. love all the actors, the performances are superb. the message of the movie is very current, hopefully its going to change a couple of hearts at least. So good to see such a good script to come to life, great job. watching it made me realize how things are changing, and movies like this one are becoming mainstream, which was unheard of just a decade ago. what a progress, and even if prop 8 passed, those are the signs that the times of discrimination are slowly becoming the past and equality and normality are very close. watch the movie and experience how extraordinary circumstances become normal.
