This is a painfully obvious, predictable and broad-as-a-barn farce about a Southern mother and her gay son. If non-stop, shrieking fake Southern accents, garish stereotypes, and humor as subtle as being hit in the head with a cast iron frying pan send you rolling in the aisles, then you will probably love this movie. I was raised in a subtler, less obnoxious South than the one celebrated here, and I am too happy being gay to relate to this hysteria, so I hated it.
But any gay movie that celebrates being gay deserves some support, so I gave it three stars just for having its heart in the right place. God bless it, its makers, and anybody who can enjoy it.
