Devolves from pre-teen potty humor to troubled gay lives
Rotten tomatoes has a review for "Just Before I Go" that about summarized it well enough: "Lurches along a wobbly line between salacious comic nastiness and nauseating sentimentality.".
One of the strangest films I've seen in a long time that starts out a bit vulgar and nasty and turns into a kind of pedestal for the tribulations of these gay couples in the film. I fast forwarded it and the movie got more and more gay-centric. I'm like, WTF. Usually, I turn a movie off at the first glance of two men kissing. Don't care. I got my opinion. It turns my stomach.
I kept this one on well past the kissing dudes part, and the plot just devolved into these homosexual relationships and their struggles, hopes, and dreams of the future. Movie chat says I have a low IQ and that there's more to the film. I get it. Life changes. Struggles with the past and my struggle with the second half of this movie.
