The cast recites lines of forced wit that aren't funny, and the clunky plot has too many contrivances.

Gay man falls for straight man who is pretending to be gay man to win the heart of straight girl in this raunchy and offbeat romantic comedy. Attractive but bitchy college student Gwen (Emily Stiles) shares an apartment with her friend Marc (Ryan Carnes), a gay man with a hyperactive social life. Keeping track of Marc's lovers has given Gwen a taste for gay men, or at the very least men who look and act gay. Kyle (Jim Verraros), who is also gay, learns about Gwen's unique preference at a party

A sweet and funny take on the crossed-wire romantic couplings of A Midsummer Night's Dream.
Rarely more than sophomoric.
It's cute enough but fails to deliver.
A less-than-satisfying cinematic meal.
Eating Out is a sometimes-enjoyable trifle. But make no mistake. It's a trifle.
May be predictable and silly, but it's never dull.
You almost want a sequel just to see how hot and heavy it gets when all the characters are finally matched up with their appropriate partners.
It's too formulaic, much too obvious and features some of the most unpleasant characters in recent film history.
Like a Will & Grace episode gone horribly wrong.
It's just too bad it's not still stuck in a plain brown wrapper.
The way these characters are written tells us nothing about them and everything about the guy who wrote and directed this movie, whose name is Q. Allen Brocka and who may be the only person who will actually find it amusing.
... a feature-length sitcom with gay double entendres.
While the filmmaker's ambition to give queer cinema a dopey sex comedy of its own is laudable, the results, unfortunately, fail on a base level. It just isn't very funny.
For a gay interest film.... it is really good, for being a great work of art - no. Some extreme situations but nicely done. Sexy Ryan Carnes gives a really good performance.

Spoilers are plentiful, not that it matters. Caleb, unhappy with his sex life, is convinced by his gay flatmate Kyle that the best way for him to find a woman is to pretend to be gay. Apparently, since coming out, Kyle has been hounded by hundreds of eligible woman all desperate to 'turn' him and get inside his pants,
