"Larry and Chuck are trying to pretend they are domestic partners in order for him to sign some city forms so that Larry's children will be provided for if anything happened to him. An overzealous bureaucrat brings the arrangement to the front page of the paper and the men learn that sticking together in your time of need is what truly makes a family.”Movie type: Comedy - This is a comedy not unlike most of star Adam Sandler's career work, male-oriented, silly, juvenile, sometimes raunchy. The gay themes will limit the film's appeal and give parents some pause.

Reviews:
”Average There's nothing here to appreciate for anyone who isn't a Sandler fan and, unfortunately, too little even for those who have dubbed themselves lifelong supporters.” Berardinelli, Internet Critic
”Below Average Unless you like your summer movies laced with a heavy dose of homophobia, sexism and racism, steer clear of this unfunny Adam Sandler movie.” USA Today
”Below Average ...this painfully uncomfortable buddy comedy trips all over itself to say something positive while still managing to offend. Worse still, it's just not funny.” TV Guide Online
”Poor Trite, tired and shockingly unenlightened, especially for a comedy pretending to be about tolerance.” Newsday
