- If you're a person that has lived on the east coast mostly all of your life.. and thought that California was the land of sunshine and beautiful people.. (thanks to the countless tv shows depicting Orange County) well, you're only half right.. it's not the case up here in North California. And this is how i'm experiencing it.

I Now Pronounce You CHUCK & LARRY movie review


This movie is gay. Yes, indeed. But with that simple remark is what causes ignorance amongst people in our culture.

This movie is about two straight male firefighters: Larry (played by Kevin James) whose wife passed away about a year ago and his best friend Chuck (played by Adam Sandler) who is a manwhore. The movie is complicated, but it's not hard to understand what the two have to go through to get the benefits of marriage for Larry's two children. Also the movie plays a really good part about the gay community. This movie touches the discrimination that homosexuals have to endure against the government and also the people that protest about it. It's such an eye-opening movie because you can get a visual perspective of how hard it is to have to face hate by people on an average basis. As what Larry & Chuck realized after going through this whole ordeal.

One funny thing about this movie is that there were many characters that you first assumed that were straight. But obviously, they aren't. It's interesting for this movie on how they played the 'first impressions' and also stereotypes. Gay people live like straight people, there's no denying that we're all human. But as our culture moves towards the next decade, are you planning to become a person that hates another person based on how they live for the rest of your life (In return, you will also be hated upon by society in general)? Or are you going to be a person that will be open to all aspects of life and people, in an effortless chance to have peace amongst ourselves and others?

Ok, i'm straying a bit from the movie, but from what i said in the last paragraph, it's a very true statement that you (and those affected) will have to answer soon enough. But you should definitely watch this movie, there are sooooo many celebrities in this movie. Tila Tequila from myspace is in it, Lance Bass, and the usual gang of actors that normally star in Happy Madison movies such as this.. yeah. you must watch this movie!! it was #1 at the box office, and there's a reason for that.
