Goofs

About 30 minutes in there's a scene of the daughter and her new boyfriend on a bridge. The license plate is from Illinois but the height on the bridge sign was in meters not feet would would indicate the movie was filmed in a location that is on the metric system.

User Reviews

Get Out of the Closet

It's nice to see bigger budgeted gay-themed movies like this, but it's simultaneously, it's sad that this is incredibly unoriginal and predictable. But, that's really for the first 2 acts. I will say the climax made up for most of the movie's faults, like watching our lead made one DUMB decision after another. Like he thought out each scenario and did the opposite of the correct way to handle it. Still, it's passible especially for light-movie watchers.
