Dicks: The Musical
This is an in-your-face, non-family-friendly, warped musical version of “The Parent Trap”. Identical twins are separated at birth & raised individually by one parent, but they become successful businessmen who meet during a corporate merger & discover they are siblings. In a plan to reunite their parents & create one happy family, the twins switch places to get to know the parent they never knew. This is an over-the-top, outlandish, silly musical comedy written by and starring 2 homosexual men, Josh Sharp & Aaron Jackson, the identical twins who don’t look alike. This film is rated R for language (f-bombs galore & crude terms), sexual content, & some nudity (not likely what you may have expected). It is just so quirky odd & weird leaning more & more towards tasteless, trashy, & vulgar for its humor. It’s a gay spoof of the Disney classic. This film is not likely to appeal to many, unless your sense of humor is a bit twisted. Among the supporting cast is Nathan Lane, Megan Mullalley, Megan Thee Stallion, Bowen Yang, & Nick Offerman.
Alien gives it 2 “Sewer Boys” stars out of 4.
