Defying acting

Defying Gravity had little to do with gravity, but certainly was defying something. The plot summed up is frat boy gets boy, gets dumb, loses boy, loses ability to speak clear sentences, kisses boy, everything is fine again.

The characters are poorly developed leaving the viewer mystified as to why they each do and say what they do. The plot is so lacking that I am still wondering why coming forward with information about a beating causes a moral dilemma. The moral of the movie is apparently that going to a gay coffee shop will help you come to terms with being gay. Or maybe it’s the coffee…
