🎲

Gay romantic comedy film criticized for leaning heavily into stereotypes, being unfunny, and portraying deeply unhappy characters despite claims of empowerment.

"If the person who directed the movie was straight critics would (rightly) be calling it a trash film that leans into stereotypes so hard that it's almost comical how inhuman the characters act. Almost, because I never actually laughed once during this supposed romantic **comedy.**"
