You Should Meet My Son!

You can't not like this movie! It's full of crazy quirky characters that are charming and entertaining.

The plot is simple and easy - the title tells it all! Brian's mother and aunt are on a mission and they learn an important lesson.

The production 'look and feel' in this movie is about on the same level as the TV show 'Mama's Family' with the same type of extreme but funny characterizations.

This is a movie anybody can have a good time watching and 'laffing' with it and at it. My favorite character is the silly southern blond girl friend near the end of the movie!

This comedy is really delightful! It is warm, accepting and just really funny. I loved every second of it!

Set in Southern USA, this movie deals with a conservative mother's reaction to finding out her son is gay: she sets out to find him a husband!

I read about this movie at afterelton.com, and it looked promising. Boy, oh, boy, does this movie deliver the goods! While it's true that it shows that the movie was shot on a shoestring budget, you honestly don't even think of it as any big impediment at all. In fact, it adds to the "earthy" feel of the entire movie.

I did read that the accents were really supposed to be fake; but being from India, and never having been to the States, this isn't something that I could pick up on: I leave it to Americans to rate that particular aspect.

I would have to say that the strongest aspect of the film would be the wonderfully quirky characters:

Mae and Rose really shine in this film; hell, you could say it's THEIR movie.

All in all, it's a light hearted movie which doesn't fall into the trap of taking itself too seriously.

I totally recommend this one!

"You Should Meet My Son!" is a wonderful comedy that will have you in stitches. Things go awry after Brian, an attractive and ideal man nearing his thirties, is discovered by his mother and aunt to be gay. Before long, the two stodgy Southerners realize that this is not a flaw in Brian's wonderful character, but rather just another part of who he is. Determined that Brian should have a happy and fulfilling life complete with a stable relationship, Brian's Mom and aunt embark on a journey to find him a man while befriending some "colorful" characters along the way. However, things don't go exactly as planned, and Brian's mom and aunt are left trying to get Brian out of a complicated ordeal that only adds to the hilarity of the movie. Probably one of the best low-budget films I've ever seen, you'll definitely get a good laugh out of this movie.

I didn't have high hopes for this movie since in looks low-budget, the female protagonists are all very loud and everything is shown very stereotypical, but boy was I wrong. They use all of these "disadvantages" and make them work really well together.

The idea behind this movie is brilliant and the realization is very successful and funny. To me, it was like a combination of Absolutely Fabulous, My Big Fat Greek Wedding and The Birdcage. Everyone was pleasantly annoying and chaotic and Bryan does well in being the most stuck-up character in the bunch.

I definitely recommend it as a evening-relaxing movie!
