John Apple Jack

(I'm going to say this review contains mild Spoilers but little not already mentioned or strongly alluded to in the opening description)This movie had such potential but ultimately made little sense. Even the brief description is wrong. John (the playboy) was JACK's boyhood crush not vice versa. The characters were wildly inconsistent at times, at least in part, to be humorous. But mostly it is just annoying and didn't make sense. For example, the father fires John from the family company, cuts him out of everything completely and but by movie's end all is well. They never showed how this transition came about. It was never explained why Jack had a crush on John for TWENTY years. Or whether he had any boyfriends in the meantime or why he would wait so long. Why did John fall madly in love with Jack after almost ignoring him 20 years? No answers in this film. Most unfortunate - why did they cast the gorgeous hunk "Paul" only to give him such a small part? Would have loved to see him in a Speedo swimsuit.

The actors are sexy, especially Chris, but he doesn't look at all like he does in the movie. He has much longer hair in real life and a hairy chest that was bare in the movie. Curious as to why they shaved it.

His personality was sexy in the movie, don't know about his real life personality.

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.

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

I'm going to be completely honest... I'm a black man and I thank GOD there weren't any black men in this movie (at least the first 30 mins I could stomach). The stereotypes, fetishization, and racism towards the Asians was ridiculous! Like my face was seriously frowned up and I cringed so much from the acting! Nothing made sense and there was no plot! No point and no purpose. Like... Everyone else summed it up so I'm not going to spend time on this. If I can give lower than a 0 on this I would. Like they would have to owe me in order to watch this garbage dump of a movie. Smh... Just have someone run over your foot with a car. It'll be way better than sitting through this mess.
