SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
Michael Ledo Two guys chase women in bars. Scooter (Nathan Anderson also screen writer) is the "ugly one" who tries too hard with bad lines. Brad (Brian Patrick Murphy) is the quiet good looking one the women want, although what he wants is a relationship. When Brad meets Rachel (Maitland McConnell) at a club, he wants her, but she has a boyfriend. Wanting to get close to her he adopts Scooter's gay idea as the group venture out on a camping trip.The scenes were not overly crude, yet again they were not overly funny. Okay as a rental.F-bomb, sex, nudity (Mindy Robinson, Maura Murphy)
christopher_greenleaf While there may have been the seed of a funny idea with this plot, the way it actually plays out lacks any humor whatsoever. The chubby lead actor is totally charisma-impaired and the whole thing is simply unfunny and illogical. I was amazed to see Eric Roberts involved with this tripe. The plot, if you want to call it that consists of this: a chubby office worker and his hapless, but more socially adept friend go out every night and the chubby one uses some amazingly obnoxious pick-up lines and gets embarrassingly shot down constantly. If this sounds at funny to you, trust me it's not. The behavior is totally boorish and never once actually translates as humor. The chubby man at some point realizes (in a painfully obvious and stupid scene) that women seem comfortable with Gay men, so the next thing you know the chubby guy is wincing, limp-wristed and behaving like a total queen dressing like Wayland Flowers and wearing a boa engaging in the most odd and stereotypical behavior ever, but of course it seems to work. This was allegedly a "true story" and if so, I'm sure it didn't play out anything like this. Like the other negative review here, I wanted to like this film, but took the rare step of just shutting it off because it was so incredibly bad. I would be very, very suspicious of any and all positive reviews of this film given how remarkably awful this "film" is. Avoid at all costs!
Dark_Lord_Mark Well, I thought it was a fine movie. The premise is two straight guys in a dry spell decide to be gay to get the ladies. Does it work maybe, but do they find themselves in the process? I seen a couple of reviews, and it goes like this, "Awful and Homophobic," or "Not Funny." No THIS WAS HILARIOUS. It takes modern PC culture and Social Justice and laughs in their face. 90's comedy is back in this movie, and it does not have to apologize.It does NOT have that much sex and breasts or nudity. It is actually a somewhat of a warm hearted comedy deep down. The leads are very likable and this movie is worth the effort to watch.I give it an 8.5 out of 10. Please do give it a shot, I know I did and I loved it.
shawnmichaelsheehan This was a great little film. Well casted, with a great story and flow. As I sat up all night coding for work it was an excellent break and I will definitely be spreading the word on this one. I can see great things in the future for Mr. Apffel. You did an outstanding job and I look forward to seeing what you put together as time goes on. The grandmother had me laughing my ass off, perfect choice. The entire cast had a great dynamic. it leaves you with the sense that everyone had a lot of fun shooting the pic. So I gave it a 10. It was an original idea, a funny and entertaining idea which covered every possible point on the spectrum from hilarious crude humor to heart touching moments. Scooter and Lizzy at dinner was one of the funnest few seconds I have seen in a long time. Excellent work guys/An American in Budapest
