Adam & Steve is a 2005 romantic comedy that follows the lives of two men, Adam and Steve, as they navigate their way through the challenges of life and love. The movie stars Craig Chester as Adam, and Malcolm Gets as Steve, with Parker Posey taking on a supporting role as Rhonda, a mutual friend of the two lead characters. The story begins in the 1980s, where Adam and Steve first meet at a nightclub in New York City. They hit it off immediately, but after a disastrous encounter involving a dancefloor mishap and Adam's inability to remember Steve's name, their romantic connection is severed.

Fast forward to the present day, where Adam and Steve cross paths once again. This time, both men have changed considerably, both in their appearance and in their life experiences. Adam is now a successful graphic designer, while Steve has become a recovering addict and a yoga instructor. Despite their rocky beginnings, Adam and Steve decide to give their relationship another chance, and the movie follows their journey as they fall in love and try to make a life together.

The movie tackles several serious topics, including addiction, HIV/AIDS, and homophobia, but it does so in a lighthearted and comedic way that never detracts from the characters or the story. The chemistry between Chester and Gets is evident from the start, and their performances are both charming and nuanced. The supporting cast is also strong, with Posey providing plenty of laughs as the sassy and outspoken Rhonda.

One of the standout features of the movie is its strong sense of nostalgia. The 1980s setting is replete with classic pop music, big hair, and bold fashion choices, and the movie pays tribute to several iconic films of the era, including Flashdance and Dirty Dancing. However, the movie also acknowledges the darker aspects of the time period, particularly the devastating impact of the HIV/AIDS crisis on the gay community. This combination of nostalgia and realism creates a unique and compelling atmosphere that sets Adam & Steve apart from other romantic comedies.

Despite its serious themes, Adam & Steve is ultimately a movie about love, and it is this focus on the relationship between the two lead characters that gives the movie its heart. The movie explores the ups and downs of a modern relationship with honesty and sensitivity, and it treats its gay characters with respect and dignity. This refreshing approach to representation in film, combined with its strong performances and engaging story, make Adam & Steve a must-see for fans of the romantic comedy genre.

Adam & Steve is a 2005 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 39 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.8 and a MetaScore of 48.
