CGiii Comment
What is it with Affleck...he really makes the worst film choices and he has a strange fantasy (fascination) with converting lesbians - perhaps, his ego has overtaken him.
Smith, he of Dogma and Silent Bob fame, writes and directs this revealing portrait of himself - a comic geek transposing himself into the body of a Hollywood type.
Pure creationist rubbish, it has none of the humour of Dogma.
Seriously, this is only for the aforementioned geeks and males who think they are the epitome of masculinity.
In the real world,this is an offensive heterosexual fantasy that denies the existence of born-that-way homosexuality.
Affleck is rapidly becoming a pastiche of himself. With all the nepotism and cronyism - quality is suffering.
A vile film no matter how you look at it and an offensive waste of time.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A pair of comic book authors named Holden McNeil and Banky Edwards, who live in New Jersey, have been best friends for 20 years. They spend their time working in their studio, and in the evenings they are going out. But their friendship is about to be disputed for the first time in their life, when a beautiful young lesbian woman named Alyssa Jones enters their life and Holden falls in love with her. Now Holden has to deal with Banky's jealousy, and with his new girlfriend's very rich past.
