It's a refreshing take on Pride and Prejudice. A romantic comedy full of wit and heart.

This is a thoughtful, enjoyable, heartwarming film. It's nothing groundbreaking, perhaps especially for a community that will find this painfully (and often hilariously) true and relatable. The cast is fantastic all around. Equating it to a cult classic comedy like Clueless feels like a bit much -- it's a more restrained, realist take. Expand

A clever and authentic queer adaption of "Pride and Prejudice". Great storytelling, good pacing and a solid cast of actors make this for one enjoyable, funny and joyous film.

The dynamics do not go beyond the superficial, and perhaps as much as it can be argued that its intention is not to go into any depth at all, that also highlights the lack of substance provided.

The dynamics do not go beyond the superficial, and perhaps as much as it can be argued that its intention is not to go into any depth at all, that also highlights the lack of substance provided.

There are bits and pieces of humor that work in scattered moments but don't really make up for the rest of the events that unfold on screen.

As I said, what Fire Island wants to be is just fun before anything else and I assume that a certain part of the audience will accept it that way and there will be those who won't. After all it needs to be consumed in those terms for you to get a better deal out of it, because what this film doesn't achieve is to give variation to a tired genre.

This funny queer vacation movie is a riveting watch! It's nuanced but light exploration of the vast areas of queer culture is both biting and hilarious. I liked the abundance of perfume genius on the soundtrack and the charater arcs

A group of friends gathers in Fire Island for one last summer, but not before amorous drama ensues. This is based very loosely on Pride and Prejudice with the gang putting up with snobby queens, while looking for true love. Comic Joel KimA group of friends gathers in Fire Island for one last summer, but not before amorous drama ensues. This is based very loosely on Pride and Prejudice with the gang putting up with snobby queens, while looking for true love. Comic Joel Kim Booster wrote and stars (while constantly bearing his fit body), along with his real-life best friend Bowen Yang (of Saturday Night Live fame). Their on-screen friendship and quest for romance comprises most of the plot. The other members of the group (including Margaret Cho) are primarily relegated to the occasional wise crack, which brings up the most disappointing part of the movie, it's not that funny. Sure, there are few choice lines, but this film relies more on the energy of the ensemble to keep it bright and breezy. It may appeal gay audiences, but THIS gay audience was hoping for more outrageous fun. Expand

The opening act of director Andrew Ahn's summertime road trip tale about a troupe of shallow party boys (most of whose characters are seriously underdeveloped) to the infamous queer resort off the coast of Long Island is so cloying that the temptation to shut it off is almost impossible to ignore. With laughs few and far between and an overall approach that plays more like an introduction to the gay lifestyle for uninitiated heterosexual audiences than a bona fide piece of legitimately engaging LGBTQ+ cinema, viewer patience is seriously tried almost from the outset. That's especially true for gay audience members who've themselves seen (and probably experienced firsthand) material like this countless times before. While there's an anemic attempt to fuse some depth into the story during the second half with its nods to Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," it's not enough to salvage a project that's obviously trying to tap into the Gay Pride Month demographic in hopes of milking it for all its worth. Given the wealth of better gay-themed movies out there (such as Bill Sherwood's far superior "Parting Glances" (1986) with its numerous Fire Island references), it's easy to understand how this one bypassed theaters and went straight (no pun intended) to streaming.

This is one of the most boring movies of the entire year with an extremely cringy script.

It's wokeness that isn't heavy-handed, with witty and humourous dialogues. The relationship between the characters is very endearing and portrayed beautifully by the cast. The themes approached by Fire Island aren't new, but they're done tastefully with a good twist. Fire Island isn't perfect, but it's sure to become a queer classic. Expand

Found it entertaining and energetic, even if plot wise it was pretty standard formula.

Completely soulless, one dimensional characters, dialogue from 2014, Matt Rogers is a disaster, and Bowen can't do drama.
