Neither a "gay" movie nor a straight one; it is simply a funny one.
The movie's steady good humor and respect for character is pleasing - even energizing.
The director is in fine form with The Closet, an expertly acted divertissement that may well be headed for a Yank incarnation within the next few years.
Hilarious French farce.
A farce nearly as cracked as his previous "The Dinner Game."
Veber, also responsible for "The Dinner Game," apparently has a finger on the pulse of French audiences and Gallic-minded Americans, but there's just not a lot of freshness in this Closet.
Has a blithe tone and a capable cast, but Veber's script is 100 percent laugh-free.
