There’s just one problem: Kline’s character has no idea he’s gay. What follows next is largely a fish out of water comedy with broad, inoffensive undertones of inclusion that also manages to miss almost every aspect of what it means to be an LGBT person beyond the spectrum of amusing a traditional audience....
