I had low hopes going into this movie but it kept my interest, which is why I rated it above average. The stereotypical artsy dysfunctional gay couple with a bad therapist can be found all over LA, Chicago, and NYC. Don't get me wrong, they were a like-able couple, for the most part. I'm just glad the writer didn't make one of them battle a meth or a sex addiction. That would've completed the stereotype.
Furthermore, we have the stereotype of the overweight female friend/hag who is desperate enough to date a homeless guy. We have the stereotypical interracial couple featured in every LGBT movie over the past decade. These characters added some flavor to the gay couple's storyline but largely just there for the sake of diversity. The gay couple redeemed themselves at the end with some proper communication between adults. I'm still not sure why Karl was such a secret. Adam fell in love with Marklin's nurturing personality. Despite the plot holes and stereotypes, it was worth my time. You won't get much better out of typical gay cinema.
