Simply Perfect

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

A gay couple are hit men for the mafia.This is your standard comedy of twists, turns and mistaken identity. The twist here is that the main characters are gay, but their parents do not know... that they are mob hit men. It is pretty good, and this simple plot device gets carried on for quite a while successfully.The strength of this film is in its approach to "gay themes". Obviously it relies on stereotypes, but I think that it handles them in a tasteful manner that is not derogatory or insulting to the LGBT community. The very fact so many openly gay people were involved gives it a certain stamp of approval.There is less emphasis on the mob parts, so if you are looking for a Mafia comedy, this might not necessarily be your thing. It is good, it is funny, but the Mafia is really not as central as it first appears.

i don't even know where to begin...if i could give it a "zero"- for truly awful- i would. What is the point of having "gay" main characters when in truth they were really bad straight actors that obviously had in their contracts that there would be no touching, kissing, etc- anything that would actually make them seem like a gay couple. I am sorry but the plot was... Horrible. Not to mention the weird military sub plot that made absolutely no sense whatsoever. This was poorly written, directed, acted, and well lets just get straight to the point it sucked. I would not recommend wasting an hour and half of your life on this BS movie and think that i should have been paid for the time i spent wishing for it to get better. Do NOT listen to the other reviews (i unfortunately listened) go do something better with your time.

I am gay and my partner and I had to force ourselves to stick with this one through the end. The script could have been developed a bit more and perhaps it would have been OK, but no such luck here. The possibility for a sophisticated, funny movie revolves around the fact that the gay male lead duo are the antithesis of stereotypical. While they are macho mob hit men, the straight sons of their boss love cooking and fashion design. That's fine, but it goes a bit too far when at one point the lead guys can't figure out, even working together, that egg shells shouldn't end up in something people are going to eat. What does that prove? That gay people can be stupid, too? Despite the role reversal, all the stereotypical gays eventually are incorporated into the story en masse. This seems to suggest that the non-stereotypical lead characters are an anomaly among gay men. If I wasn't gay, I am guessing I would have enjoyed it - but we gave it 4 thumbs and 4 big toes down.

That's the only way I can describe this dog. Just awful. Two chuckles for very rare "funny lines" and one star for finished product. I may lie to local video store & claim dvd was defective. At least I'll get a credit for wasted money! LOL! Could have been so much better without stereotypes & militia parent storyline. I do give my "hats off" to actors that portrayed Stephen & Danny. They were the only redeeming factors in a poorly written script. Did I mention that they were "easy on the eyes"? WOOF!
