Product Description

Having shared quite possibly the most excruciatingly embarrassing night together in cinematic history at the back end of the 1980s, Adam (Craig Chester) and Steve (Malcolm Gets) part company and don’t look back. Fifteen years later the pair meet again and fall in love, not recognising each other from their earlier encounter. After a year together overcoming their neuroses--of which there are plenty thanks to that fateful night--the penny finally drops and it is too much for Steve, who calls the whole thing off. Adam is left heartbroken and it is up to their two friends, the formerly obese stand-up comedienne, Rhonda (Parker Posey) and stoner serial-seducer Michael (Chris Kattan) to try and patch things up. Can the pair learn to get past their embarrassment? Will Adam’s family curse finally break? And will Rhonda realise she is no longer fat and that she needs some new material?

5.0 out of 5 stars Riotous 27 Aug 2006
Format:DVD
This film is perhaps the funniest I have seen and was a pleasant surprise in being so! Often I have rushed out and bought 'gay' themed films simply because they are 'gay', that have been largely pants, dull and poorly produced.This is NOT the case with Adam and Steve and is funnier than any 'straight' film I have ever seen. I thought I was in for more of the same old tat with this DVD but I almost burst an eye with laughing out loud! The cast are excellent, the writing is genius and the chemistry between all of the characters blew me away. In other words... it's not bad (!)

The film never really takes itself too seriously - so even the parts which traditionally would make you squirm at the 'cheese factor' are easily digestible !

It's nice to see a 'gay movie' that does not focus on the lead actors being extremely good looking (at the expense of their acting ability !). Instead, the story is quite naturalistic - yet comical. It is interesting that the actor who plays Adam actually wrote it too - and though he is the 'star' of the movie, one is grateful at the way he does not overplay for laughs, steals the best lines or grabs all the sympathy and empathy from the viewer.

A lovely film. A lovely story with it's heart in the right place. A lovely cast. And with the few belly laughs added to the mix - makes this a must for any gay man's DVD collection. (And for once, a film suitable to maybe watch in front of Mum or Dad, or at least not have tucked in a box on the top of the wardrobe somewhere !?)

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Movie! 29 Oct 2006
By Alfie
Format:DVD
We rented this movie from Amazon and didn't quite know what to expect... What we got was laughter and a feel good factor that some gay movies don't often provide. It just got better the second time we watched it and I've just ordered a copy for keeps!

Go hire/buy this movie - you'll love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars At last - a gay feelgood movie! 18 Oct 2006
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this on a whim. As a gay man I love the gay genre of filmmaking but to be honest I was getting a little bored with the "doom and gloom" aspect. I was so glad I got this film, it is hilarious!

Adam is a luck-cursed man who meets his dream date (a 'Dazzle Dancer'!) in Danceteria in the eighties. After a truely hilariously disasterous date that causes repercussions on both sides they meet in modern day NY. They do not recognise each other until much later on in the movie when they are deeply in love.

This film was very very funny and all my straight friends love it too!

If you want to kick back and just have some fun then get this movie, a bottle of wine and someone hunky to share it with, you won't be disappointed!

Loved it! Really cheered me up and made me laugh out loud many times. I loved the two leads. The comic timing is spot on. Look forward to sharing it with others and having another viewing. Will really lift your spirits if you feel a bit down!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome! 1 Jan 2013
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I thought this would be a stupid little flick, but oh, it was so much more! It was actually really funny, not silly as I thought, and romantic, as well! I even teared up a bit, but don't tell anyone. ;)

The actors were really great [watch Noah Segan and his facial expressions omg!], it has a fantastic soundtrack and it is just a really sweet and funny movie. I really very much liked it!

Love is Touch
Touch is love
Love is reaching
Reaching is love

No one could sum up this film better than this nearly final music. But the film is going a long way beyond the simple words in these four lines and two verses. It is not enough to just touch the other and be touched by the other. We must understand that touching is a very complex activity. You have to touch the mind of the other and vice versa be touched by the mind of the other and in the same way your mind is supposed to touched the other and the other is supposed to touch your mind. But speaking of the mind, everything must be included and sorted out not in any way to judge or try what is good or bad but just to know who the other is and vice versa and to accept the other the way he is and to be accepted by the other the way you are. And that's what is meant by reaching.

Straight sex erases this dual relation since one is a man and one is a woman and everything is reduced to that difference, but when the two persons are two men, or two women, the differences are so much deeper and more secret, less visible and more complicated. They cannot be reduced to a simple difference in sex since the two people are of the same sex. The differences are mental, intellectual, artistic, physical and of course the past of the people is different, their heritage is different and so many other things are different, but not the sex and nothing can be reduced to that circumstantial difference. It is so easy to forget all these things in a straight couple, to reduce the whole thing to a simple difference in sex. Actually the sex difference, or similitude, itself is the least important element in a love relation that can be even just as strong and yet not lead to sex.

Got this film as a rental. I thought it was awful. The acting, charecter development, the pace, the plot, just about everything was wrong with this film
