This film is about a man who pretends to be gay and has a date with a gay guy, in order to get the girl he wants."Eating Out" is a low budget comedy, but it has all the right ingredients to be an entertaining film. I like the story as it is a refreshing change from all the standard romantic comedy. It has adult themes and at times stretches on for a bit too long, but these scenes do not feel out of place. There is a lot of positivity and social support for the main characters too, which is uplifting and empowering."Eating Out" is fun, lighthearted and makes people happy. That's all that matters for a comedy.

I could sum up this movie in just a few words: awkward, plot-less, and cliché.Do yourself a favor and don't waste an hour and a half of your life watching this movie. That is, unless you enjoy straight men awkwardly pretending to be gay to win the hearts girls who unrealistically flirt with them despite the fact that the men have declared their complete gayness. This movie was a complete mess.I seriously had no idea where the plot (if it can so be called) was taking me throughout the entire movie. By the end, I was just horribly annoyed.The only remotely entertaining part of this movie was the main guy's ex-girlfriend, who is the only character who actually has a believable personality. She actually made me lol a few times toward the end.Other than that, I seriously hate this movie with a passion. If you want to see a good gay move, rent Trick, Latter Days, or Boy Culture.

I got this movie yesterday, after read several comments of this movie being really bad. I am a art and film student, just began to shot my short 15 minutes film and nervous about the final result. I can certainly hope it won't be as bad as this movie is ! I know sometimes in comedy you can't create a really close connection between the actors. However this movie took me to another level... Even in a comedy type of movie, anyone could think that a straight guy recently been blown by a gay guy, and kissed his flatmate and tells him that "If he was gay a little" he would be his boyfriend, could question his sexuality a bit, don't you think? I found this movie very hard to digest, from every point of view you wanna see it. No much to see of Caleb(Scott Lunsford)questioning his sexuality, or even face the fact that he might as well being a bit confuse after all. If there is anything worth in this movie, it has to be the scene where Caleb and Marc(Ryan Carnes) going for a barbecue together at Marc's friends. I was looking forward to see the connection growing between these two guys, and just when you think they are getting there, they decided to get a video together. Then we are taken to another level here when the phones ring and is Caleb's flatmate (Jim Verranos) who can't honestly act (sorry to say this, sounds like a nice guy though) and the very hard to take Gwen, Marc's flatmate. I found her character very annoying to point I couldn't feel any sympathy for her character at the end. The end, I can't began to describe how bad it is. Honestly Gwen and Kyle, deserve one other. I feel sorry for Marc, as he is portrait as the "uncommited gay guy". However we could see that in fact Caleb feels a bit for him after the party they got together and the scene in the video store where Caleb confessed to Marc 'You are just awesome in the piano"....Certainly this is something that if I was directing the movie I would like to explore more. Let's these two guys end together, correct me if I am wrong, but I got the impression that if Caleb didn't move any faster to Marc, was not only because he confessed to be straight, it was because he felt he was betraying his roommate and flatmate Kyle. Very disappointing film it was for me, the end was abrupt and confusing, the acting was at times over the top, specially by Emily Stiles and Jim Verraros, but the scene where Caleb's parents came for dinner is out question one of the worst...!

Eating Out is a warped college sex comedy from up-and-coming indie US director, Q Allan Brocka.Shot in ten days on MD, it's about Caleb, who falls for fag hag Gwen, infamous for turning all her previous boyfriends gay. The way for Caleb to steal her heart? To pretend that he's gay, according to his roomie, Kyle. But the plan backfires when Gwen decides to set Caleb up with her best friend, Marc.The cast includes Scott Lunsford as Caleb, Emily Stiles as Gwen, Ryan Carnes as Marc and Jim Verraros as Kyle. Rebekah Kochan has a memorable cameo as Caleb's kinky bonk-buddy Tiffani.Eating Out is light, pacey and funny, although it's obviously been made on a shoestring budget. In addition, the actors never transcend caricature to behave like real people. In one scene Caleb and Marc get it on, with Caleb only able to do so while Gwen whispers phone sex talk in his ear. It's clear that Marc's being used here, but he barely even notices.If that doesn't faze you, you'll probably enjoy Eating Out, which screens as part of the Melbourne Queer Film Festival, running from March 11-21.
