This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

My advice: skip this one. Really. You have better things to do. The only laugh I got from this film is reading the IMDb synopsis - "Sex and the City meets The Wedding Banquet." I don't think so. You may find a chuckle or two because the film -and everyone in it - is sooooooooooo bad.This is film is so amateurish it does not deserve to be in the movie database. The script is at the high school creative writing class level. This is a bad sit com parody you would expect to see on your local public access channel. The acting - if you want to call it that -is horrible. Attn: Jay Wong: you cannot carry a film. And, Sandra Lee: please keep your day job. The "sexy" boarder is Robert played by James Marky - I just don't see it.To top it off, this feature looks like is was shot with someone's home video recorder - flat, lifeless. Don't get me started on the editing - scenes are held way to long for no reason. Camera shots are usually wide to capture the whole room and all the people in it. So there is plenty of awkward staging. No pesky medium and tight shots to get in the way.Lots of miscues in this one. Key to the plot is the "heat" between Daniel and Robert. But, there just isn't anything so the film fails because it is centered around this "dangerous relationship". Funny how the film synopsis lists Robert as a cute guy from the South. His character is from Indiana. Last time I looked, that state is in the Midwest. In a useless subplot, Daniel's "girlfriend" is dating a "black man" The horrors! But he looks Asian to me.But there is some nudity (mostly limp is you know what I mean) in the film - more on the level of soft porn.

I liked it a lot. Yes, it's very much indie and low-budget, but the point of the movie was to show things from the Chinese-American character's point of view, to show why the answer to "why don't you just come out to your parents?" can be a lot more complicated than others may imagine. Worthwhile and fun and sweet.The style and acting was meant to be naturalistic, and the emotions are kept pretty restrained. I kind of liked the way the characters were very much depicted as pretty much ordinary guys, like the ones I knew growing up. The movie avoids extremes that are so common that we don't even think about them. There's no big, high-drama drug problems (at one extreme) nor no guys with jet-setting (perfect but empty) lives, and the funny "best friend" characters aren't so terribly arch. Seems pretty true to life, which forces you to concentrate on the story and message, which is pretty quiet, emotionally brave turf to tread. In that sense, it takes some risks in its simplicity.

I rented this movie expecting it to be a cute love story. However that was the only that I got from the movie. The movie not only proved to be a low-budget film through the usage of amateurish filming but also in a terribly poor acting. The actors weren't unable to convey much real emotion and everything seemed so forced. If we were to bypass the above mentioned flaws, we are still left with a terribly written script. There dialog is bland and often times sporadic coupled with humorous moments with such poor lines that it leaves one completely unsatisfied and frustrated. Also the interweaving of Chinese dialog and Chinese customs without much explanation proved to be too selective because it is probably only understood by Asians. Also, there are many gratuitous nude scenes which proved to be quite distasteful.

The humor one may expect, resulting from inter ethnic situations and gay life are here. Gay sit coms (particularly when set in, where else? San Francisco) have become all too common and stereotypical. Yet, this one has some quirkiness, and enough insight to balancing love, family and other responsibilities to make it stand out.
