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

Set in the Arizona Sonoran desert EATING OUT stars Scott Lunsford as Caleb, a hunky straight college student, who falls for Gwen (Emily Stiles). Caleb's gay roommate, Kyle (Jim Verraros), convinces him that pretending to be gay will get Gwen's attention, and it does. But instead of hooking up with Caleb, Gwen decides to fix him up with her own gay best friend, Marc (Ryan Carnes). Meanwhile Gwen’s latest boyfriend Joey (Billy Shepard) confesses to her that he is actually gay. Puzzled by her attraction to gay men, Gwen sadly wonders if she'll ever fall for a straight guy. When Caleb agrees to go on a “date” with Marc, Kyle gives Caleb some pointers, secretly hoping this will eventually bring him closer to his own desire: Marc. But things get complicated and Caleb is faced with a confusing situation -- how does he reveal his true feelings for Gwen without hurting Kyle or Marc? Marc can't tell why the new guy is so hot and cold while Kyle watches the two loves of his life leave him behind. EATING OUT is writer/director Allan Brocka's feature debut and was shot on location in Tucson, Arizona in only ten days. -- © Ariztical Entertainment [More]

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. Full Review |

A sweet and funny take on the crossed-wire romantic couplings of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Full Review |

|
It's too formulaic, much too obvious and features some of the most unpleasant characters in recent film history. Full Review |

Like a Will & Grace episode gone horribly wrong. Full Review |

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. Full Review |

|
... a feature-length sitcom with gay double entendres. Full Review |
|||
|
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. Full Review |

It's cute enough but fails to deliver. Full Review |

A less-than-satisfying cinematic meal. Full Review |

Eating Out is a sometimes-enjoyable trifle. But make no mistake. It's a trifle. Full Review |
