This film had potential with an outstanding ensemble cast and some good performances but my goodness the script was all over the place. Maybe it was editing but the entire film was so disjointed. Characters were poorly developed.

Was it the best film ever made? No. But it was a entertaining enough to watch. I actually found myself enjoying it. I wish people would allow themselves to step back from reality a little bit and just enjoy something for what it is. Doesnt need to be overanalyzed

This is one of those films where someone has decided that a coasting relationship that is of little interest to those in it, and of even less to those of us watching needs to be the subject of a bit of shake, rattle and roll. The mundanity of life is beginning to sap the passion from the lives of "Adam" (Scott Evans) and his boyfriend "Marklin" (Augustus Prew) and that's not being helped by the newly invigorated "Cammy" (Michelle Buteau) completely loved-up and the rest of their friends going through their own forms of mid-life crises. Is it possible that all these shenanigans will make them appreciate that what they had was worth fighting for, or will they just serve to point out that you only get one life and shouldn't be afraid to move on when the time comes? At least here we are not looking as the usual white-tooted, gym-baby, characters - there is a semblance of normalcy from the characterisations, but there anything remotely innovative stops. The acting and writing are the stuff of a daytime hospital soap and the stereotypes included could be ticked off from a checklist written fifty years ago by Quentin Crisp. Will they or won't they? I'm afraid I really found the story arc ensured that I didn't much care.

This movie goes absolutely nowhere, acting is mediocre at best. Kate Walsh is completely wasted in this movie. My rating of 5 Stars is even pushing it.

I guess in order to get a decent rating for a movie involving gay men it has to include half naked chiselled bodies accompanied by that one homophobe character who comes along to shake things up. Haven't we evolved into wanting more for our gay characters and wanting to actually see and relate to a long term relationship between two men. This movie has its faults but deserves more credit than what it seems to be getting. It's nice to see two men in a long term relationship trying to navigate the ups and downs of what they want their future to look like together.
