After going through men... "The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life Of Ethan Green" is the story of Ethan Green, an adorable 26 year-old professional 'assistant' looking for love in all the wrong places. After going through men like Kleenex, Ethan finally meets the holy grail of dream dates, Kyle Underhill, a gorgeous professional baseball player who's just come out. After declaring that Kyle is in fact 'The One' to his skeptical friends and family that include his lesbian roommate Charlotte, his boring but reliable ex-boyfriend Leo, the irrepressible Hat Sisters, and his loving gay-wedding-planner mother, Ethan and Kyle begin a tumultuous four-month love affair. Disaster strikes when Ethan's former boyfriend, Leo, threatens to sell the house where Ethan lives. In an attempt to avoid being evicted from his home and jeopardize his new relationship with Kyle, Ethan concocts a wild scheme to keep his home from being sold. Enlisting the help of a 19 year old real estate agent's assistant named Punch, who possesses a romantic agenda of his own, Ethan soon manages to weave a madcap web of lies and deceit that lands him in EVERYONE'S dog house. Naturally, the scheme crashes and burns and Ethan is unable to prolong the sale of the house. In the film's climax, Ethan is forced to finally make a choice between the hunky Kyle, the impassioned Punch, or a life of endless speed dating. -- © Regent Releasing [More]

Not un-entertaining, but director George Bamer's debut feature may play better on video.

Ethan Green may not exactly be fabulous, but it is pleasantly diverting.

The mostly unfunny -- and unfabulous -- trifle never rises above sitcom level.

A frothy lark with a decided sense of the outrageous, sincere affection for its characters and their romantic plights.
