Pluskylang Great Film overall

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Eric Fisk CGD As a member of the "Conservative" and "Religious Right" I don't have any issues with Homosexuals, and I'll put it out there that I believe committed couples (some who have been in relationships longer then most straight people) should have the right to have Civil Unions or Gay Marriage (what ever you want to call it in your neighborhood.) Many (if not most) homosexual men and women are productive members of our society and contribute a great deal. They need and deserve to just be left alone and allowed to live their lives as they choose and reap the rewards or suffer the consequence of their choices.I'm not a gay basher, I'm not "secretly gay and in denial," nor am I a "hater." Nor am I easily offended or put off by people with lifestyles that are different from my own.With that said, there are too many aspects of "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy" that are simply ridiculous. It's genuinely painful, harsh, embarrassing when it's not unintentionally funny by perpetuating stereotypes.The most absurd aspect of the show is Carson Kressley (Spell check wants to replace that name with "Crassly" – how appropriate…) trying to tell men how to dress. He understands what's "hip and trendy" and knows the basics of clothing construction, but Kressley telling men how to dress better is like asking a plumber how to fixed your clogged arteries and broken heart valve – It doesn't fly.The premise of the show is to try and turn sloppy straight guys into trendy stylish guys, period. Sadly, that never seems to happen when Carson does his best to turn these unsuspecting heterosexuals into "homo-looking heterosexuals" while trashing their own original style. Kressley is simply incapable (or blatantly unwilling) to dress sloppy straight men to look better or fashionable with out making the men look foolish or effeminate (or both.) He also performs his duties on the show with an air of indigence and arrogance that's a bit hard to tolerate.Since the show's been canceled – Bravo should have the guts to do a roll reversal: Five Straight guys do a makeover to make him a little less "queer." It won't happen because turn-about isn't fair play in some circles.

MarMitch Let's face it some people need a kick in the pants if not a new pair of pants. I like this program. I think the 5 guys are entertaining and considering there are cameras following theme around they all seem pretty genuine although Carson flames a bit but you can tell he's like that all the time and not just for the cameras. They are doing the jobs they love and helping some poor filthy guy out is a bonus. I know there are gay men that need help (bobby trendy?) but it seems that most of the hetero men being 'eyed' on this show really want the help. I love the way the 5 all cringe when the heteros 'speed shave'. I'm a hetero female and I find it very entertaining to watch. Thinking about it though, it really doesn't matter that the men are gay, it could be called 'Professional Eye for the Amateur Guy' but then it would be 'What not to Wear MEETS every DIY show on cable'. So the gay aspect is the show's hook. It would be just as good if the word 'gay' was never used, but the comments wouldn't be as clever (like when Kyan was wearing a cowboy hat that belonged to one of the their target guys and Carson called him 'George Gay' (instead of George Straight). I like everything about QE.

johnnysugar Occasionally a television show comes around that is deemed by many to be "groundbreaking" and "brave" in its portrayal of a social minority. Often, these critics are not part of the minority portrayed, and generally don't know a what they're talking about. Often, these shows devolve into showing nothing more than tired stereotypes that fail to show their characters as real humans, people incapable of advancing beyond their set of cliches. "Queer Eye For The Straight Guy" is only the latest in a long line of painfully-rendered back-handed political correctness.The premise of the show is this: five gay men that are "experts" in their fields perform an extreme makeover on a random heterosexual schlub, slowly transforming him into a clean-cut, fashion-conscious, overly groomed heterosexual version of themselves like mad doctors with expensive shoes. Ted (food/wine), Kyan (grooming), Thom (interior design), Carson (fashion), and Jai (culture) make up what has been termed "The Fab Five."The premise of the show could be amusing if taken as a one-shot episode of "Ricki Lake" or another similar low-brow talk show. As a series, it grows old rapidly, with each episode seeming to be an only slightly different variation on a theme. This is not helped by the Fab Five themselves, as each one -- Carson especially -- come off as rude and arrogant to the point of derision. They may be experts in their fields, but that's no reason to belittle anybody who isn't.Many people have celebrated this show and its success as bringing gay culture to the masses, so to speak, as if that hadn't already been done by Ellen Degeneres. The only thing this show does is portray all gay men has shrill, bitchy, shallow fashionistas with a fetish for materialism and hair product. Each man is only as deep as his specialty, and even then, none of them give any hint that they care about the world outside of Neiman Marcus. A person with no experience with gay culture or gay people would see this show and get a very skewed impression of gays.As a gay man myself, I take great offense to this entire show, from its preening hosts to its insipid, infomercial-reject premise. Unfortunately, due to its massive ratings and the fact that some people actually consider this trash to be entertainment, it and shows like it will only continue to flourish. 2 out of 10.
