I don't know why everyone else likes this movie so well. As I write this, this is the lowest rating here. It could have used another, especially considering the script's many flaws. In a movie like this there should be at least one good shot of an attractive shirtless man every ~10-15 minutes, and this movie failed there-but I digress. The first half has a good amount of skin (no nudity), but the second half has almost none. The two leads have chemistry and look good, which is a plus, though by the end I wanted Shaun to have at least one character flaw for interest's sake (he doesn't get any). It's like the screenwriter forgot to add motivation and the director was hoping nobody would notice. Zach is deeply in the closet which causes him to be horrible to the perfect three above, but none of them care that he's gay and Shaun's gay anyway-so most of the drama is baseless. ) while Jeannie is flawed in every way (homophobic, depressed, drug abuser, bad mother, unattractive. The characters are oversimplified-Gabe, the girlfriend, and Shaun are perfect in every way (supportive, accepting, hot, good with kids. ) while Lots of plot holes, like forgetting about Zach's father in the wrap-up and the implausibly compressed one-month timing of the relationship.
