Happy, Texas (1999)
6/10
Entertaining enough, nothing great
11 February 2005
"Happy, Texas" is an entertaining enough comedy about a couple of crooks who escape jail and find themselves inadvertently stuck in Happy, Texas - where they must pose as two gay men in order to divert attention from their true identities.

This sounds like a rude and raunchy comedy but it's well-delivered and surprisingly tasteless. William H. Macy gives the performance highlight as the closet homosexual police officer. Reminded me a bit of his performance in "Cellular," only...more flamboyant.

This is a funny film with some good performances. If you don't like gay stereotypes as humor, then look elsewhere - otherwise if you have an open mind and aren't easily offended it's pretty entertaining.

I enjoyed it anyway.

3/5
