I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (2007)

The film predominantly uses gay stereotypes and the discomfort of its straight protagonists for comedic purposes, resulting in a portrayal that largely mocks rather than affirms LGBTQ+ identity. Despite a late attempt at a message of acceptance, the net impact is problematic due to pervasive ridicule and the reinforcement of harmful stereotypes.

The film portrays Larry's Catholic faith as a sincere and positive aspect of his character, providing him with moral grounding and comfort. While some characters use religious justifications for homophobia, the film's narrative clearly condemns this bigotry, distinguishing it from genuine faith and positioning the audience to sympathize with the victims of prejudice.
