Just another "gay is funny" flick., 22 November 2003
6/10
Author: George Parker from Orange County, CA USA

"Regular Guys" tells of a straight cop who is kicked out of his flat by his girlfriend and finds himself in bed with a gay man after a hard night of drinking. From there the film takes off to sitcomland as it explores the cop's relationship with a babe on a stakeout; his friendship with his gay flatmate; family matters; coworker biases; etc., etc. When all is said and done, this film does manage some humor and heart, all of it on unsteady legs. Basically a straight flick with gay stuff for comic relief and a par watch with subtitles and some nudity (all male). (C+)
