Highly Overrated But Still Good

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

The catchy theme song, sung by Deborah Gibson, & the comedic situations of this film reminded me of something Doris Day would've starred in, if she were making movies today. It's not for everyone, but it's enjoyable. If Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, & Britney Spears can star in movies, then certainly there are more movie parts out there for Deborah Gibson. This was a good vehicle for her film debut.

I rented this on video out of curiosity - had no idea it actually played in theaters (not here in NYC, though).The story concerns a gay soap actor (played by Chris Bruno) who is about to marry an innocent, unsuspecting young woman to help his hunk image, much to the chagrin of his longtime boyfriend, who is forced to play "best man" at the wedding. Enter the bride's best friend/maid of honor, her klutzy date (the insufferable Sean Ruennette) who is soon mistaken to be the lover of the actor's boyfriend (don't ask), the bride's mother (Valerie Perrine, looking all at sea and who can blame her), and a pesky reporter (Deborah Gibson, the one bright light in this mess) with some compromising photos of the actor and his guy...and you've got a headache. How much contrivance can a movie handle?And we're seriously stretching credibility here - a lot. This kind of "gay deceiver" plot might still work, but the script is so witless that the story seems silly & dated. The bride-to-be seems incredibly naive for the 90's. The film actually spends the most time on the budding romance between the klutzy guy and the reporter, so the central "farce" plot sort of gets the back seat. The final denouement hinges on those photos and a mailbox found (are you ready?) on a path next to the woods. Enough said.

My Girlfriend's Boyfriend had a decent plot and took place in one location. This movie however is an underground low budget movie that lives or dies be the actors. I liked it. The actors were alright, nothing Oscar worthy. The story line involving a jealous gay lover was very funny and so was the script. This however seemed like a really good cam corder project. I enjoyed it however but now we know that this filmmaker can make movies like this it's time for him to move on and do something better.For the people that didn't like it, I don't know what to say. It is an underground movie. So underground indeed it theater in New Jersey. I'm a bit mad that I didn't see when it didn't receive distribution (I think it could have been a small success on the art house market). The movie only played at one theater for a week: The Screening Zone, a small 2 screen was there, I was in the next theater seeing Hurly Burly, another movie that lives or dies by the actors. Go see this one for a laugh and see Hurly Burly for something to think about.

Sorry to say, I was bored about 2 minutes into this flick. The actors ham it up so much, they almost distract you from the flat dialogue. The Director tried really hard, maybe too hard, but nothing clicks in this movie. Our audience giggled once, but at the end, we all looked at each other, and left the theater wanting to see a REAL movie.
