character. Paul Iacono is brilliant and I can't imagine him as any other character -- which is how I felt about his TV character RJ Berger, who is worlds apart from this role.Sasha Pieterse is blond Denise Richards pretty, but a whole lot smarter. Xosha Roquemore is all legs and laughs. She mutters a brilliant line that made me bust out laughing: "I ain't mad at that" -- watch for it. She owns the role and is smart!G.B.F. smacks of a cult favorite and star-maker. I suspect in a few years we'll look back at this pop-masterpiece and marvel at all the now-celebrities who broke-through in this cast.

not sure everyone in the audience got, but there were quite a few of us that found it hilarious.Cons--- If I had any complaints at all about it then I would have to say it would be the language. In some instances I felt like the foul language was overused to a point where it was a little distracting and took away from the overall movie b/c I don't feel like everyone talks like that. It may be a generational gap/area of the country gap with me though b/c these were supposed to be high school students. I don't feel like I'm terribly old though, and I do cuss so I'm not a prude. I guess it was just a little more than I was used to, and as a parent it made me feel a little awkward with my 13 year old cousin at the movie. I didn't feel it was appropriate for the 13 year old age group because of foul language alone, and it should probably be rated R when it's in theaters. However, with that said I really did enjoy the movie!Someone in the audience said the hideous yellow feather looking dress made that one girl look like big bird at the prom, which I found very funny in the middle of the quiet movie theater.

this movie does have an amazing cast who all did a good job at performing very realistically and not over the top.

keeps everyone laughing and engaged while provoking thoughts and conversations usually only heard in Gay- Straight Alliances. I was fortunate enough to catch a screening of the film at FilmOut San Diego's LGBT FIlm Festival Premiere and I am so thankful I did! Northy's writing in the film is both heartfelt and humorous, the cast in it's entirety delivers stellar performances, and Stein tells the story with clear direction and purpose. Not a moment is wasted in this film and you'll never be bored!The best part of the film though is it's various messages that hone in on many issues not yet touched upon in any previous high school film due to G.B.F.'s gay male protagonist. The politics of coming out versus being outed, the staggering difference between the response at least in a well-meaning high school such as the one featured in G.B.F. of a gay male being outed versus a lesbian female, the value of diversity against a stereotypical and homogenized depiction of high school royalty, and of course, the delicate line between being a straight ally to the LGBT Community and being a tokenizing and trivializing straight "friend" to another due to their gay orientation. As someone who is usually skeptical of LGBT-related films and who usually critiques and leaves movies with a sense of disappointment, I left this movie with a sense of satisfaction and joy. This film was everything I wanted it to be and whenever it comes out in the future, I will aspire to own it in my own movie collection. Furthermore, I have a strong feeling that this movie will not just be big within the hearts of LGBT Film Festivals and Lovers of Quality Gay Films such as myself, but will soon be associated with the Great-So-Called-Straight High School Films such as Clueless, Heathers, Easy A, and of course Mean Girls, which is referenced numerous time within G.B.F..This movie is for everyone and is an answer to the cries of people like me that is the eye- rolling bunch mentioned earlier . If you can see this movie, if you do have access to see this movie now--GO! It is well worth your time, your money, your laughter, and your tears!

make you smile and certainly put you in a good mood. And that's all it was designed to be. Sure, it delivers a great message, but don't expect some Oscar winning cinematic masterpiece. Take it for what it is, and you'll love it. A lot. So grab some popcorn, invite your friends around, hit the lights, sit back and enjoy a night in with this hilarious movie : Fans of Mean Girls, Easy A, She's The Man, Clueless etc will enjoy.PS: It's a 9 instead of a 10 simply because I felt Mrs Van Camp was underused. That's all!

Megan Mullally, Karen from "Will and Grace" , who's rented a bunch of the most inappropriate gay movies to watch while newly out and/or with your mom "Milk," "Boys Don't Cry," "Shortbus," and "Brokeback Mountain" , as evidenced by the numerous outtakes played over the end credits where the actor playing opposite Megan can't stop bursting out laughing at Megan's deadpan reaction commentary to the sex scene in Brokeback. One of the best gay indie comedies I've ever seen, and if I knew any gay teens I'd buy them a copy -- while a farce, there's a lot of good stuff about self-identity and self esteem but never devolving into preaching in this R-rated comedy. If you enjoy light comedies, give this one a try.

your expectations continually on their ear. The top flight cast includes Natatsha Lyonne, Megan Mullahy, Xosha Roquemore, Jonathan Silverman, Rebecca Gayheart and Michael J. Willett as Tanner, a newly out of the closet gay guy who "Doesn't act like the gays on Bravo," according to the school's three most popular girls, who quickly give him a stylish queer makeover to make Tanner their idea of a proper new "Gay Best Friend." All this leads up to the prom in the classic teen comedy tradition, and its all silly and fun, but the heart and soul of B.B.F belongs to Paul Iacono, who plays Tanner's flamboyant best friend Brent who happens to be gay and more "femme." Iacono's crack comic timing still allows for emotional depth of his character's soul to come forward. In a delightful movie full of cake and ice cream, Iacono's serves you the deep main dish. Don't miss this one.

fact that even the supporting characters are memorable, like the Asian guy and the Mormon guy. It's such a drama filled fun film, I really enjoyed watching it.

real, and vulnerable. More of the truth begins to slip out before it all hits the floor. So I would recommend this for Mothers to watch with their Sons, and for others to just watch it, there is a lot of good humour in here, and a good feeling or 2 to be had as well.
