Went into this expecting to love it and I sort of still did despite the sudden Christianity and regrettable plot twist. Cranston makes anything worth watching and Ainsworth really shines in this I'm now totally convinced he'll make a great Link and can't wait for that movie. Jack Champion finally finds a suitable role playing a shit actor but he still has the most punchable face in Hollywood with that shit eating grin. Still way underrated no idea why this doesn't have more watches.

“Bagpipes sound like a mistake!”
Cringe and camp and faggy and encapsulates the awkward nature of being a flamboyant gay teenager. Charming and saccharine, with a set of parents to rival Olive’s in Easy A. Plus Jack Champion isn’t difficult to watch.

Maybe i was watching it for naked Jack Champion and not for the plot...
Not bad movie that says what it wants to say in it's title. Just okay if you wanna burn some time
