Mediocre movie. It's one of those movies that are bad but you just can't turn it off because you need to know what will happen next.
Here, a straight attorney pretends to be gay in order to lead the representation of a client. The client is being accused of firing a guy because he is gay, so the client wants a gay attorney on their side to show that they have no problem with it. The straight lawyer wants to make partner at his law firm, but Julie Bowen wants to stop him. The light for the gays was excellent. It's a pity the movie wasn't better.
Our straight attorney turned gay is played by Jay Harrington, who is on Desperate Housewives now. Michael Ian Black is his gay roommate (Michael is the guy in the Sierra Mist Super Bowl XL ad with Kathy Griffin). So, we have a straight guy who has no problem playing gay, living in a tiny apartment with a gay roommate. You go girl! We also see that Jay's parents are very supportive when they find out that he is gay.
Reichen Lehmkul plays Michael's one night stand. He shows up in a towel. Does not utter a word. He dates Lance in real life.
There are tons of cliches in the movie, like when some gays say that Jay doesn't look gay enough because he has no muscles, but they are all okay with me. You can rent the movie, just don't expect much.
