About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a bittersweet, family-centered coming-out story with humor, big emotions, and lively dinner-table drama; Not for you if you want a pure comedy or dislike stereotypes—try His Secret Life or Caramel.
Pros: funny and emotional mix; warm family atmosphere; memorable music | Cons: uneven tone at times; some gay stereotypes; crowded subplots
