Date and Switch

Everybody, gay or straight, deserves a friend that supportive.

Fairly enjoyable buddy movie some nice vibes in the bulk of it. I love the cast, not much great dialogue though but smooth silliness and has some great moments! Definitely a great one for supporters of gay folks, the main actor is awesome along with the best friend I enjoy him anything I've seen him it. I admire Zach he even directed an excellent horror in the last couple years for some reason can't think of the name. This has a lot of charm/wonderfulness mashed in well I'm shocked the low rating yet it is fair too. I think it's magnificent how Dakota starred in How to be Single a couple years before this both are wonderful!

I found this to be very watchable, often interesting and rather cute ...but really nothing significant/great. I feel giving it 6-stars is being generous; anything higher would be an insult to other films.

Matty (hunter Cope) and Michael (Nicholas Braun) are best friends and have grown up together. They are now approaching their prom night but are both still virgins. Well we all know the smell of desperation oozes out of virgins like a reversed effect pheromone and so they decide they have to get some serious bedroom action.

So they make a hash cake in preparation for a big celebration and go about the art of seduction - badly. Then Matty announces he is actually gay - as if this minor bombshell wasn't enough Michael starts to fall for Matty's ex girlfriend. The path to non virgindom then begins and despite Michael's attempts at helping his best bud get his rocks off, he starts to feel the strain and there inevitably will be some ups and downs (sorry awful joke that).

This is just great fun. Megan Mullally has a small but perfectly formed part as Mattys mom and the clichés are kept mostly at arms length. The jokes are really well observed and everyone puts in a great performance - maybe because they were all enjoying themselves. Either way this is a film that put a smile on my face and kept it there - I hope it can do the same for you.

I've watched plenty of gay movies/series and unfortunately they always tend to stick to the same stereotype of the "queen", colourful, flamboyant gay men. This one finally breaks free from that mould and presents a consistent coming out/of age story with a non-stereotypical gay main character, someone who doesn't like musical theatre, Britney Spears and is actually on the chubby side, which was quite refreshing to see. Granted, it's still a teen/prom movie like oh so many out there, but the acting was fine throughout and the setting/location was pleasant too. It was good to see some familiar faces like Dakota Johnson, Megan Mullaly and "Ron Swanson" acting like his usual butch self, albeit with glasses this time around. I thoroughly recommend it if you are tired of the usual gay stuff and want something light and fun to watch.
