I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry Movie
Chuck Levine (Adam Sandler) and Larry Valentine (Kevin James) are Philadelphia firefighters and sworn friends who are ready to sacrifice themselves for each other without hesitation. While Chuck is a real womanizer, Larry takes no interest in women. He was widowed early and left with two small kids. He loved his wife deeply and vowed never to marry again. As firefighting is a hazardous occupation, Larry wants to name his beloved kids his pension beneficiaries. When bureaucratism prevents him from doing that, he discovers that the only way to cut through red tape is to pretend to be gay so that they can get domestic partner benefits. It means that if something happens to Larry, his pension will go to Chuck who will be able to provide for Larry's kids. Larry asks his friend to do him a favour and Chuck reluctantly agrees to. From that point on, they find their lives turned upside down...
