Title: Exaggerated and lacking...
Product review: Here's one that will NOT be joining the ranks in my personal library of lesbian/gay films, which includes Desert Hearts, High Art, When Night is Falling, Bound, The Incredibly True Adventure..., Forbidden Love, The Crying Game to name a few. "It's in the Water" is rife with stereotypes, mostly with a tongue-in-cheek approach. Yet I found myself falling victim to my own stereotypes, because I never for one moment honestly believed the female leads in earnest. The men portrayed in the movie, even in their exaggerated-ness, were much truer to their identities. I'm sorry, but the one female lead (don't know her name) looks like Kathie Lee Gifford's twin. I know! lesbians can be glamorous, too, but I just couldn't buy into this one!
