The laughs flow easily though deft dialogue and Morgan's crack timing, and Amstell dodges most of the clichés associated with the gay rom-com, like over-the-top gal pals and cartoonishly clueless parents. I enjoyed it.

Rated: 3/4

I have just watched Redbox’s first attempt at original content, Benjamin, and you won’t see a worse film this year.

Benjamin might play towards the raunchy side but never crosses the line when it comes to the subject matter.

...walks a fine line between sentiment and outrageous political incorrectness.

Max Burkholder is beautiful, but doesn't get enough screen time to make this dumpster fire worth watching. It's so terrible that one suspects it must be some kind of inside joke on Saget's part--but there's no clue what that might be. It makes one of those Hallmark movies they only show on Christmas Day--about two brothers separated at birth who find each other thanks to a magical Arby's sandwich--look like Shakespeare.

How is this a movie? It’s an hour and a half of torture to sit through. Unbelievable.
