This is How Movies Should Be Made

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I'll keep it short as possible. The idea of a gay "turn" heterosexual is absurd! A movie where a heterosexual guy discovers himself gay is acceptable, since it is the sexuality already presumed from birth. A gay guy has already gone through the "finding himself" phase, sexuality is not a back-and-forth thing. Now, there are two scenes in this movie that make me disgusted, and both are with the bald "macho". The first one is when he tries to comfort his friend by referring themselves as the "normal guys", saying that that's the way heterosexual guys are. And the second one is on the plane, in which he goes to rescue the main character, so that he does not have a "relapse" when a gay guy flirts with him.

I wouldn't call it comedy but drama. It's nothing funny or smart in showing internalized homophobia of main character. I don't buy this story. No matter how much producers claim to be "neutral", they are, in fact, endorsing the "pray away the gay" bulls**t by giving it airtime and credence.This is dangerous and I am very disappointed for the end of the movie. It sounds fake from beginning to end. The directors of this movie, want us to believe that a gay man can live a life of a straight person if only he meets the right woman, which seems to be the point of this comedy. But it's not true. It's absurd and nonsense. And it's not funny. The story is not only hard to believe, it's hard to watch too.

I KISSED A GIRL is an clever spin on a common theme of gay movies. This time, rather than the stiff straight guy who realises he's gay, we have a happy and successful homosexual about to marry his partner of ten years...only for him to get drunk and sleep with a beautiful Swedish woman. Soon he's obsessed with her. Is he straight? Homosexual? Bisexual? He doesn't know, and his confusion - not helped by the less than useful assistance of his best friend, who'll sleep with any Russian hooker he can, only to find the one woman he can't do without is his bossy, large-nosed secretary - makes up the movie. Like every rom-com there's a lot of cliché but the film is charmingly adult, witty and has that refreshing and peculiarly French frankness about sex. The people are beautiful (often in surprising ways) and the confusion creates some wonderful farce. Contrary to another comment, this is not a homophobic film. Rather the plot is a sign of how far public acceptance of homosexuality has come; one of the funniest jokes is the way his parents are so accepting of him being gay that they don't know what to think when he tells them he's fallen for a woman. This is a rom- com that's both romantic and funny - and nicely shot to boot. Give it a try.

Jérémy is gay and lives with his long time friend, Antoine, who is becoming a doctor. Jérémy is also associated with Charles, who is straight, in a young company producing consultancy reports. Problem starts when Jeremy meets a Swedish girl, Adna, and spends the night at her place. The whole film is then about him getting confused, not sure whether he should stay with Antoine, or cancel the prepared wedding and move to Adna. Relationship with Charles, whose advices and attitude are a bit provocative and pushy, makes the situation more difficult. Adna, on her side, has become attracted to Jérémy, not aware of the real nature of the couple Jeremy/Antoine, this one being introduced as Jérémy's brother. So at some point it is clear that all lies will evaporate, every party will understand what is going on, and decision will have to be taken.I suspect that those who wrote the scenario, were not sure on how to finish it. They probably considered several available options. What could be the best happy end in such a comedy ? I was satisfied by the last part (but not the final scene), especially the funny trip to Sweden. Even if this end is seriously unrealistic, The whole film should not be considered as more than a series of clichés and theatrical play intended to try to make you smile. No lessons about sexual identity can be extracted from this material. But it may generate some discussions about possible migration from one side to the other.Overall "I kissed a girl" is watchable, but a bit flat and can be avoided as well. It will probably annoy most gay people, as a celebration of normality and conformism.
