delicious little date movie, 3 April 2006 Author: thelastjunglist from Big City, USA Romantic comedies are formulaic and predictable. Still, there',s such a thing as a "superior" genre film, and Adam & Steve is one of the lamentably few that rate that description. Although it',s a gay romance, there',s nothing that made me as a straight guy remotely uncomfortable. I do think the fact that gay actors played gay characters made things a bit more fluid- much better than, say, "Jeffrey," which featured straight actors overacting gay.I laughed a lot more than I remember doing at any Rom-com in recent memory. Parker Posey really stole the show for me, but I',ve always been a fan of hers. The romantic aspect of the film is campy and farcical to the point of absurdity, and hence didn',t bother me too much- and the jokes are constant and quality.If I were to register any criticism, it would be of the generic plot devices- hidden identity, comical misunderstandings, the obligatory Rom-com chase-across-town-before-it',s-too-late. But as I said, it',s a genre film, and well done for what it is.
