Synopsis

Firefighters Chuck Ford and Larry Valentine are guy's guys, loyal to the core—which is why when widower Larry asks Chuck to pose as his lover so that he can get domestic partner benefits for his kids, his buddy agrees. However, things get dicey when a bureaucrat comes calling, and the boys are forced to present a picture of domestic bliss.

beauzee as relatable as this 2007 film is to "today", it does have a few issues in...what?...believability? would a raging heterosexual assume the role of "gay partner" to help out his buddy in his goal of assuring that if he passes (he and Adam are firefighters) his children will have a good parent, in Adam? (James lost his screen wife recently and he is preoccupied with her memory and the reality that he could die at work).there's some discomfort with the handling of the subject of "gay marriage" as a ton of clichés do get thru in the wild horseplay. but the script is brilliant, and so is the acting and comedy editing.I see Sandler here, as a combo of Jerry Lewis, Al Pacino, and ...Adam Sandler. Look, he's no "deep" artist...but he is great at what he does. Buy this comedy!
vannessamarovatsanga Do not address other Reviwers. Okay Fine. If you watch this film and think it's gay-bashing you do not know, that gay people have a sense of humour too.Ridiculous idea to start with, a surprisingly fun and engaging comedy.Tolerance and Acceptance and avoiding Fraud charges -key words,so lets goThe scene in the shower room after the lads find out about Chuck and Larry is Priceless. Like a lot of Adam Sandler films you still get the impression it's aimed at 20 year old boys with a 12 year old s mentality at times but it more than makes up for it with the fact that,unlike most comedies watched in this horrid horrid experiment of mine. It made me laugh. Copious amount of Laughter. And I would watch it again
Mystical_lonewolf I decide to give it a two instead of a 1 for a reason; it does intend to say, "Hey, it's not nice to attack gay people, let them marry." But the reason it didn't get a higher score was due to stereotypical stuff about gay people.I am pro-LGBT rights, i write blogs working on this subject and from what i know, this film makes gay people look too stereotypical. I am never a fan of Adam Sandler, but his character here is not helping this film. As for the "japanese chapel owner," all i can say is, "what is up with this?" They decided to instead of focusing on really showing Gay people as they are, they decided that we should make them look pitiful, unrealistic, and cringing.I don't know the makers of this film's true intent or what they really thought of LGBT people and civil rights, but i can do a better job of this and make it very funny as well and never come off as stereotypical or bad.I would suggest to anyone that want to see LGBT people are who they truly are, i suggest films like "Shelter" "Beautiful thing" and "Just a question of love" because they portray gay people in a realistic light. This film "I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry" pretty much just screams, "Hey, leave them gays alone, it's not their fault they're fruits!" I'm sorry but if you want to show support for civil rights, even in comedy taste, you're going to have to do better than this. Way better than this.
parkerdecaro I do love most of Adam's films but this one is by far the worst Adam Sandler movie i have ever seen. The comedy was bad the story line was demeaning to the homosexual community.Adam needs to stop accepting to be in these kind of comedy films they are vary horrible movies they have never been that funny and should not be made . I think Adam Sandler had played in some really good movies but this one is defiantly not one of those movies. I think Adam should start trying to get into my serious acting. I am not trying to hate on comedy films i think some of them are vary vary funny and fun to watch. In conclusion i think Adam has done some vary good work but this movie defiantly not in the top 5 Adam Sandler Movies.
