Review of Get Real (2009) by Brian M — 06 Oct 2010

Here is yet another gay themed movie that falls flat by playing out obvious homosexual sterotypes. It seems that everyone in this movie dislikes fags except for the two main charactors and one girl, who is your sterotypical fag hag.

You have the closeted teen homosexual, the confused homosexual, the fag hag, the bashers, and, your typical closeted married homosexual. Not to mention the oblivious family and friends. I don't know, I just found it all kind of been there, done that. It didn't offer up anything fresh or new. Certainly nothing to get excited about.

However, the acting in the movie was decent, and I was kind of routing for the main charator, but, the rest of the movie did nothing for me. Just when I thought there might be a tender moment between the main charactor in his love interest, the creator of the movie has to do the typical. And, that was to make the love interest bash the fag to impress his so called friends, and avoid outing himself.

I was hoping for a happy ending to this film. But, there was none. Unless you want to call a fag hag getting her drivers liscence a happy ending. Well, there you go.
