Eating Out Reviews
St. Paul Pioneer Press
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.

May be predictable and silly, but it's never dull.

Not every filmmaker can be the next American Idol.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
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.
In this dreary erotic roundelay, Caleb (Scott Lunsford) is a straight man who likes tough women.

While there's zero chemistry between any of them in any combination, there is an awful lot of the excruciatingly shrill Gwen.
A slight sex comedy that would work far better on stage than screen, where it seems far too talky and too slow.

The story doesn't make any real sense, and the production values are home movie-cheap.

TV Guide's Movie Guide
A tasteless comedy that nevertheless leaves a nasty flavor on the tongue.

This low-budget college-campus farce succeeds in being occasionally playful but is mostly annoying.

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

It's just too bad it's not still stuck in a plain brown wrapper.
