If its a gay movie, why is it so homophobic? At one point when the main character is telling his friend he might be bisexual, his friend starts making really homophobic comments and the movie never acknowledges it. at the end, the friend just accepts it, he is not shown that what he said was wrong or anything. they also show really awkward "sex scenes" (if you can even call it that). just overall terrible and i do not recommend.

What we have here is a personal story that feels a bit too personal. By that I mean it feels like it was made for a very select audience, perhaps even an audience of one. It's okay for filmmakers to create stories that mean a lot to themselves, but ideally they will mean a lot to many others as well. That's what made 'Ladybird' so wonderful. That's a personal story that feels personal to everyone. It's so full of empathy that all viewers can connect with it and be genuinely moved by it. 'Alex Strangelove' never reaches those heights. Plot-wise, here's the rub: Alex Truelove is a high school senior with typical high school senior problems. He is stressed about getting into the right college. He's stressed about school. He's stressed about figuring out this sex thing. His friends tell him sex is no big deal, but for some reason it hasn't happened for him. He loves his girlfriend, and she loves him too, but he has been putting off that part of their relationship. She doesn't know why and neither does he. Or maybe he does, but he isn't ready to admit it to himself yet. One night at a party, Alex meets a cool guy. Everything becomes harder and harder to understand. It's unclear to viewers, as it is unclear to Alex. He's on a journey to self-discovery. He just hasn't reached his destination yet. Daniel Doheny (the guy who plays Alex) is terrific. He successfully plays the part at various times as charming, funny, awkward, confused and downright mean. It's a challenging role to pull off, and he hits all the right notes. The actors who play Alex's girlfriend Claire (Madeline Weinstein) and the cool guy Elliot (Antonio Marziale) are both fine. They aren't as nuanced and realized as Doheny's Alex, but they don't stand out in a negative way. The film's resolution leaves a bit to be desired. Some loose ends remain untied. It probably would have been better to never introduce those storylines in the first place. The script would've been tighter, and nothing crucial would be lost. Overall, this is a funny and fun movie that's part 'Superbad' (because of the parties and foul language) and part 'Love, Simon' (because of the sexual self-discovery). But it isn't as good as either.

This could have been a good film. It's got a witty visual style with just the right amount of cutaways and special-effects gags. But the language that pervades the film is staggeringly ignorant, tone-deaf and at odds with its subject matter. For a film that rightfully attempts to normalise same-sex relationships, it's disappointingly blasé about alternative gender and sexual identities - and many of the main characters unhelpfully try to persuade Alex that he's not gay or bi, that bisexuality doesn't exist, or that it's just a phase, or it's all in his head. Jesus Christ. This film is disturbingly irresponsible and I would recommend you watch Love, Simon a second time instead of enduring this contradictory mess. The parent characters barely got a look-in and added nothing whatsoever, while the FMC barely passes the Bechdel, if at all. I think this is the first time I have ever felt compelled to write an IMDB review - to make sure nobody else is subjected to this garbage. 4/10 because the main guy was a good actor - shame he had to get mixed up in this.

As a gay teenage boy, I was excited for a decent teen comedy that is gay, and it even started out like that in the beginning but after the first party scene was over, the rest of the movie turned to crap. For a comedy, there really isn't any jokes for the ones that are jokes had been said so many times before like an awkward sex scene but it goes on for way too long. Also, did we really need to have Alex ex-girlfriend hating him twice just so they can make up later? this crap is already annoying once in movies but then they decided to do it twice like "Oh, it was just a misunderstanding" BS. BTW for a movie that market itself as a gay movie, there is little gay in this movie. It almost if it like the original script was so generic that they believed by putting a few gay moments would make better. It Didn't. Overall, the only good thing I can say about this movie is at least its release through Netflix so I wouldn't have to waste my money on movie theater tickets.
