A Festa de Formatura

We gay people have been normalised (and that's a very good thing) to the point we can make movies just as bland as straight ones. I guess that's good news.

Despite all of the glitter, glamour as well as the renowned cast, The Prom (2020) fails to become the Oscar contender it aspires to be. The subject matter is definitely worthy of attention, but this movie will probably not stay in your mind for long. An easy movie to watch that is close to deserving a failing grade.

I'm a 50 something straight man and I loved it. As a parent you can do nothing more than love your children for who they are. A joy of a film.

One of the only movies like this that acknowledges how liberalism doesn't do much to change minds. It's also not a coming out movie, which is nice, as that has been done too much and doesn't show the true experience. So, yeah, it's not the best, I'm guessing the musical is better and would be fun to watch. James Corden is kinda annoying, hetero side relationship is boring, it's still kinda forced. But hell, they finally got queer actors to play queer characters (besides James Corden, seriously, why dude). I like that the "gay makeover scene" is a gay character dressing a gay character. I like Emma's first song. My liberal family likes it, so it certainly reaches its audience. I hope it hasn't/doesn't win any awards though. There are much better, more artistic or unique, less flashy and Hollywood, gay movies out there.

It is definitely cheesy but it's a lovely feel good movie. Despite the movie's cheesiness and how it spoon feeds a lot, it's beautiful and enjoyable due to its nice story and its important cause and life messages. And to me that's more than enough to love and enjoy it. Meryl Streep and Nicole Kidman are literally perfect. The colors are catchy and nice, the music is awesome as well. The Prom is a cheesy entertaining beautiful emotional movie. Give it a try.
