Hallmark clone? Yup. Over the top fairy tale? Agreed.
The best feel good happy ending gay themed romcom I've ever seen? Absolutely 100%
I can't count how many gay themed movies I've wasted hours watching with angsty, cry me a river, gays get the shaft because that's what they deserve storylines. I've longed to see a sappy love story where the guy gets the guy and no one dies or leaves. I wish something like this existed when I was young.
This is the one. It's well done, the lead actors have GREAT chemistry. Even though both of them are straight, they put in the work to make the romance believable and heartfelt. The supporting characters could have been a bit more developed (they were in the book) but they're still funny and likeable.
I highly recommend this movie, especially for young people.
