    I can?t believe all the bad reviews I have read about this film. This movie was funny! Definitely not an intellectuals film but entertaining none the less. I didn't find anything offensive about this move as so many reviews are saying and by the way I am a gay man. If you like simple-minded low brow humor (and maybe more so if you are gay) you will like this film. As usual, never listen to the over analyzing talking heads.… Expand

    I have a bias for nudity, Irish actors and dwarves and so I gave this pinkeyed rummage of stereotypes all that it deserves. The director/writer, for all of his Guy Ritchie influence, blows at comedy like Paris blows at sex.

    Great Fun. Forget the PC crap. A good 90 minutes of queer entertainment.

    This film was made to shock. But in truth it blatantly knocks stereotype thinking on its head at the end of the film. I presume most critics didn't watch it to the end - this genre requires it. It also has the sweet undercurrent of a man coming to terms with his sexuality. May I just clarify that the two main characters are not from Dublin, but from two undefined places within Ireland - one has an Ulster accent, the other accent less acute.… Expand

    As a gay male I found it amusing. It's just sophomoric low-brow humor. There are lots of movies that are much worse than this one. Killer Condoms is a good example of something worse. Remember folks, those who can't do-review!

    I thinks it's sad how we're so snesitized to anything poking fun at stereotypes. This movie was thoroughly enjoyable and was time well spent. It is not offensive, this being said by someone who is gay.

    9 Dead Gay Guys, a dark comedy in the John Waters tradition, takes place in such a cartoonish, good-natured universe it's hard to imagine anyone taking offense.

    The film scores points needling the guys' lingering insecurities.

    The film strains mightily to be flashy and hip but finishes more in the realm of the merely distasteful.
