I'm amazed at the nine star rating. This is your standard crap gay movie, with an unlikely plot, a cast of third rate actors, poor direction, bad sound, choppy filming etc. There must be thousands of gay men and women working in the US film industry - can't half a dozen of them get together and make a decent gay comedy? I can only assume that the audience who, according to another reviewer "was laughing and clapping throughout the movie" must have been stoned out of their minds. OK the hero was passable, and the Puerto Ricon guy was really cute. And why do these sort of movies always have to have a screaming black queen? Not a very good advertisement for the gay black community.
OK, I give up. What is it with US gay films that seem to attract the most terminally incompetent cameramen and sound engineers? Here we have a potentially charming gay romantic comedy ruined by rotten sound engineering (half the dialogue is either drowned out by the sound of high heels clomping across wooden floors or is simply muffled and inaudible) and bad camera work. There must be hundreds, thousands, of competent sound engineers and cameramen in the US - why can't the gay film industry sign a few of them up? OK, rant over. Apart from all this, I did enjoy the film, which has a fun, if predictable plot, and commiserations to the very good cast. I can only hope that one day someone will re-make the film rather more professionally.
