You don't come across many movies that feel obliged to include their genre along with their title, but that's the route that this year 2000 movie has gone for. It's a semi-autobiographical tale from Greg Berlanti, who also directed the film, which means it's one man's vision. All of the characters are loosely based on himself and his friends, and their lives as a small gay community in West Hollywood.
What makes this film stand out for its time is that it didn't make the homosexuality of its characters into the source of the drama or the comedy. Their homosexuality is presented as normally as heterosexuality is in other films, with the characters shown to be perfectly normal people who just happen to be gay. While this may not be unusual as we approach the 2020s, it was in 2000. With Zach Braff from 'Scrubs' in the central role, this is almost 'Friends' re-imagined as a gay comedy.
