Yes, I am gay, and yes, I have a sense of humor, and yes, this is one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my entire life. And no, not because it is gross, and not because there is too much sex, but because there is not one single funny moment in the entire movie. I sat there stupefied -- too inert to turn the damned thing off.
I saw Todd Stephens' "Edge of Seventeen," and OK it was kind of amateurish, but it had a good heart. This movie has nothing but kind of cute guys. That's it. And I agree with other posters that much of the "parody" is (or should be) extremely offensive to gays or lesbians or Asians or really most anyone. And it doesn't even show that much skin, despite what other reviewers have said. (It is not "full of frontal nudity" -- it has a single closeup of Richard Hatch's johnson.)
Friends recommended this movie, and maybe it's better seen in a theater full of people (rather than rented and seen at home, as I did), but the laughter would be by association rather than anything genuinely funny in the movie. I also watched "Little Miss Sunshine" on DVD at home, and it had me laughing out loud.
Run as far away as you can from this movie. Rent something by John Waters. Anything. Amazingly, incredibly bad.
