While Lez Bomb certainly doesn't hit all the shots it takes, I think it's a really important (and entertaining) step forward. Go to Full Review
Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times Nov 9, 2018
Overwritten and overlit, Lez Bomb frequently undercuts its own charms. Go to Full Review

Draco R Apr 15, 2019 One long clique and tepid acting along with unbelievable scenes make this a movie you want to miss. The only saving grace was some of Dern's quips to the family as he was the first to discover the real relationship. See more
Kylo W Mar 6, 2019 This is painfully stupid movie. How hard is it to say I'm gay. The parents are ridiculous.
George S Feb 11, 2019 aside from Cloris Leachman and Steve Gutenberg the rest of the players are unknown but this movie features two women whom have a loving relationship they both want to get out in the open to everyone it just happens to be Thanksgiving and Maggie is having trouble coming out to her family since everyone just happens to be there making assumptions and causing a lot of misunderstandings her girlfriend, Hailey is anxious to celebrate the occasion but Maggie's concern about everybody else's feelings not to mention that she's a Christian is causing several obstacles the first hour is pretty funny but at the same time frustrating cause you want everyone to know the truth already plus it doesnt help that each member of this family has their own baggage to carry from drugs to sexual awakening the film does toy around with a couple of difficult transgressions; does anybody want to be gay?, it's not a lifestyle choice obviously, does our feelings matter more as well as happiness or others?, how can we be the best versions of ourselves if not with the ones we love?, a parent can only be as happy as their child, we shouldn't have to worry about others accepting us for who we are, just us instead, religion and sexual orientation don't have to clash with one another not that many stories exist around the holidays involving the LGBTQ community but this is definitely a breath of fresh air branching out to this demographic this is funny, heartwarming, and very honest about what to do with taking the next step in any relationship See more
Kylo S Dec 15, 2018 This movie is awful and is obviously some stupid fantasy in some writer's head. The acting by the two women is terrible. Professional actors cannot save them or the script. Do not waste your time with this garbage. See more
Nov 29, 2018 Honestly, this was such a great watch! It was so funny and the whole room was LOL-ing throughout the entire thing! Highly Recommended! See more
George L Nov 24, 2018 A journey for a main character in a modern telling of coming of age/coming out story that i've not seen before; a perspective that is refreshing and awakening to consider. It is couched in the familiar family chaos that is comes with the holiday movies, but with different dynamics for reach and every character. The humor and performances are a bonus. See more
