"If you're thinking about going to see "The Stepford Wives," I advise against it. Comparing this lame, sitcom-style, utterly unbelievable re-make with the sinister, subversive original is almost a case-study in the dumbing down of popular culture. It also contains the usual assumptions of the Hollywood gay-written movie: women are generally morally superior to men, and the only true heroes are career women, Jewish lefties and effeminate gay men. Please. It didn't even come close to being camp."
-Andrew Sullivan, calling the film "not gay enough." Or perhaps "too gay." I can understand Sully's complaints in reference to Tony Kushner and others, but I always thought Paul Rudnick was better than that.
