The Shiny Shrimps is like inside a man's boxers: there are no real surprises but what is there is enjoyable.
A gay copy of France's successful Sink or Swim last year, The Shiny Shrimps is the story of a water polo team competing for the Gay Games. Based on a real water polo team, the good news is this film far outshines its trailer which angered me for feeding the stereotypes of the flamboyant gay man. Fortunately, the actual film is more balanced and while there are certainly gay stereotypes (it is a mass market comedy, after all), at least there's more than one type.
The Shiny Shrimps hits all the right notes even if it's the same old song and dance. You'll laugh out loud, identify with the characters and leave the cinema feeling good. What more can you ask for from a mainstream comedy?
