Disclaimer I was about 10 natties and an old fashion deep going into this so will be a bit more forgiving
Tldr: if you saw the trailer you saw enough of the movie unless you're really interested. not great, not as bad as I thought. 4/10
First off I will say this was a big budget movie. Feels like it with great directing, editing, sets, actors, etc. There was also clearly some writers in there with talent and I lol'd a couple times and was laughing about 50% of the time. The story is a kinda role reversal rom com where it follows the flighty b-word and her quest to change the hunk and be with him. So sound alright right?
Well, the star and person I assume was involved with a lot of the writing Billy Eichner is terrible. I mean he has a couple funny moments, but only a few in a 2 hour movie where he is there the whole time. There is not a single scene where he does not bring up being gay, either to assert dominance over lesser straggots or apologize to the higher ups on the totem (LGBTQ PLUS, yes they spell the whole thing out EVERY TIME) pole. But mostly to lob random "lol gay guys are so x" jokes that get weird after the first 5 times. Then there's the fact that they intentionally talk about gay butt s*x around a straight couple's like 8 year old kids and the wife is like YASSS QUEEEEN. Then he gets mad that the dumb hunks mom doesn't talk about docking with 2nd graders and later the hunk is link "grug sorry I made you shutup about gay s*x :(" and of course the mom comes around and gets a "you might be gay!" scene please clap
This was a chance to show the world that a gay couple could be normal (that's literally the start of the movie is an exec wanting him to write a gay movie for straights) but the character we're supposed to relate to (I think?) is neurotic, makes taking it in the butt his entire personality, and tries to groom kids. His love interest is a normal swole country boy who is shown the way of being an obnoxious cute twink and overcomes this. Empowering. Not to mention the casual steroid usage
Somehow the trains came off as the most reasonable in this movie and that should tell you what you need to know

How does it feel to be a filthy bedouin who belongs to a lineage and culture which has never actually accomplished anything for itself? The only remarkable traits of your people are that they sit atop oil which white people pay you for and that you are dishonest and relatively dim witted. If western leaders weren't a bunch of jew addled traitors they would have wiped your people off the face of the earth and simply taken your oil rather than paid your r-slurred royalty a single cent.
Now we have a scenario in which a bunch of dune coons run around playing 21st century warlord with weaponry their stupid people couldn't possibly invent and pooping up life on earth for everybody. We never should have sold you so much as a Lamborghini let alone a fricking autocannon. Handing you sand BIPOCs modern weaponry is like handing a small child a hand grenade.
If your people were worth their weight in salt they would turn their own lands into a place fit for human beings. Since they aren't able to, they flee to our lands and proceed to breed like rats while feeding their children with fraudulently earned income and welfare paid for by white people. You and your ilk will eventually outnumber us in our homes and our lands will become as shitty and useless as your lands. Cograts, you'll achieve dar es salaam but you won't have running water or a functioning power grid. You played yourself.
Shameful behavior from a deceitful desert tribe. Yet you feel pride. So strange.
Begone, rat.
