Amateurish production

This movie is at the level of an amateur production that must have been extremely low budget. The acting is horrible beyond belief as all the "actors" seem to be real amateurs who probably thought they were making a video for social media. What I cannot understand is how this even made it to mainstream media! It's really, really bad!

So, so, sooo bad

I hardly ever write reviews on movies but this takes the cake. It's hard to come across very good gay independent movies in general. I couldn't take my eyes off this train wreck of a movie. Between the acting and horrible dialogue, I found myself talking aloud at the atrocity. Who comes up with this crap!?

Poorly written & poorly acted tragic waste of time

The best thing about this movie is the trailer, which promised a light, silly, and cute gay comic romp. It is actually a tragedy, a trite & tedious concept that plods so insipidity that it is a tragic waste of the viewer's time. Nice camera work & pleasant soundtrack, though.

Silly drivel

This thing is convoluted so save your neurons, have this on as background music. Chinese and Asian stereotypes abound like the plague and I had to cut it off at the halfway mark. I don't like any of the characters I'm supposed to like and all I want is for the end to be all the characters, except the one kid to be hit by a fireball at the end so I can break out the Sahlen's hot dogs and revel as their sweet cries of agony rise from the fire

Save your time and energy., watch something else

Worst thing that has ever happened to Chinese after Nanjing Massacre

This is just plane horrible. It completely fetishises Asians on so many different levels. So the Asian mother just has to have a ridiculous accent? The Asian boy toy of course just has to be so feminine and slutty. Chinese guys just have to be sexually repressed and only has responsibility in their life and finally, it is another white guy's opportunity to be the savior.Asian gay men, just like Asian women become this projection of stereotypical infatuated loyal husband that loves the white guy for 20 years, and whatever stupid thing the white guy has done the Asian guy will just always take him back. All the talk about Chinese food is just infuriating, the western-centric assumption of "westernizing Chinese food". This movie is practically a hate crime against Chinese.Why is this even legal on the market.
