| Welcome to the Now Playing Reviews Database where
you can find our opinion of films which have had a cinema release in the UK.
Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of
all our reviews appears below, and this week's current films are found on the Now Playing Main Page.
Most films are now available for rent on DVD and we recommend ScreenSelect who operate an efficient online rental service by post with no late fees and you can keep up to 3 DVDs for as long as you like. If you'd like a film permanently in your DVD collection, then the best prices are normally found at Amazon. | |
Cheaper By The Dozen Movie Rating:  Wretched | |
| When Tom Baker (Steve Martin) is offered his dream job, coaching his college alma mater's football team, he and wife Kate (Bonnie Hunt) move their 12 kids to Chicago. Open rebellion breaks out among the couple's resentful progeny after Kate leaves on a publicity tour to promote her new book. | |
| This wretched family comedy relies heavily on vomit jokes, inane slapstick, and the dubious charm of overacting children. Martin and Hunt's amiable warmth provides scant compensation for a group of petulant adolescents and young moppets who behave so monstrously that they serve as arguments for both strict birth control and corporal punishment. The movie's central premise - that it is somehow wrong for parents to occasionally satisfy their own needs - is breathtaking in its idiocy. |
