Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Fire Island (2022)

Every year a group of friends go to Fire Island for a week of hookups and fun. This year, Noah is determined to get his best friend Howie laid and is putting his own pleasure on hold until that happens. Though Howie meets the perfect guy on day one, the guy's friends aren't so sure about Howie.

This is feather-light and every bit as predictable as any rom-com from the '90s, but it still hits the spot. Lots of laughs and some genuinely moving moments. The biggest issue here is some stiff acting -- but it can be forgiven since the group is so winning.
