Movie Review They/Them/Us

They/Them/Us 

Directed by Jon Sherman 

Written by Melissa Vogley Woods, Jon Sherman

Starring Joey Slotnick, Amy Hargreaves, Jack Steiner

Release Date February 1st, 2022 

They/ Them/Us is a modern sitcom crossed with Fifty Shades of Grey. Though the movie has some minor charm it lacks anything to truly make it special. They/Them/Us is another in a surprising yet slow growing trend of sex positive movies that have the appeal of not shaming people over their sexuality but the film also carries the tone deaf quality of a woke dad, trying way too hard to show the kids how cool he is. 

They/Them/Us stars Joey Slotnick as Charlie Goldman, a college film professor recently separated from his wife. Charlie is getting back out into the dating world while also trying to co-parent a pair of obnoxious teenagers eager to blame their parents for every minor inconvenience in their life. For Charlie’s son, Danny (Jack Steiner), that means getting heavily into drugs, first marijuana and then psychedelics. For Danny’s sister, Anna (Shanna Strong) that means complaining that no one is doing anything about Danny.
