Another Gay Movie (2006)

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I saw the unrated version of this film, I have never seen a gay film that has so many sex scenes. Basically, all the young actors have to show their butts. They only thing they didn't show is the frontal area. And they all had some tongue to tongue kissing on screen, too. They all acted so real, and seem to enjoy doing those scenes, I start to think that maybe they are all gays in real life.It does have some funny scenes. All of them are gays. One of the mother is a drag queen who is a male obviously. So unless you live a gay life 24/7, it seems improbable. Then it has myriad sex scenes, so those things certainly lowered the rating.Gays are minorities, they are supposed to be the people who are open minded. However, in this gay film, if it is not racist, it is at least ignorant. It made fun an Asian girl who can't speak proper English. It seems that in Hollywood, hot looking girls are exchange students from Europe, such as in the film "American Pie", but only dumb girls who can't speak English come from Asia.And the four main protagonists are all Caucasians, I certainly didn't see any Asian gay men in the film. Just like the rest of the films made in Hollywood, most of the gay films made in Hollywood also have a lot of Caucasian males. In the other film "Another gay sequel", all four protagonists are once again all Caucasians. In real life, there are gays of all kinds of ethnicity. It is time for a change!

Director Todd Stephens' stab at a gay teenage sex comedy in the style of Porky's or myriad other 1980s films should ostensibly have been a disaster, but emerges as far more inventive and amusing than anyone could have expected. The story takes the old nutshell of the gaggle of four high school friends determined to lose their virginity before starting college and makes the protagonists gay. A familiar parade of gross-out/rude humor takes the stage, but the film puts itself to the head of the pack due to several accomplishments that go far beyond changing the sexual orientation of its leads. For one thing, many of the jokes truly do hit the mark. The film has a good feel for exactly the naughty comedy it is going for and succeeds, and it has a surprisingly upbeat nature about it - an element missing from many of its predecessors. A steady array of cameos from gay celebrities in amusing roles maintains interest - from Lypsinka and Scott Thompson as parents to one of the boys to Graham Norton as a teacher to former Boy Meets Boy lead James Getzlaff as a hunk to former Survivor winner Richard Hatch as himself, etc. It also has a good feel for its audience, in that a la Porky's it knows how to tease and titillate, but it also delivers and does so with a wink. There is a lot of male skin on display here from the leads downward and it is usually more welcome than not. The memorable sequence where three of the guys tap into the security cam in a gym shower a la Porky's to spy on the eye-popping soapy Jason Ridge in a "private" moment ranks as one of the best guilty pleasures in a long time, not only for the stimulating visuals but the frankly hilarious commentary from the voyeuristic on screen audience. The leads are all perfect. Michael Carbonaro is hilarious as the dreamy/nerdy guy who functions as the focal character, Jonah Blechman hits all the right notes as the stereotypically flamboyant gay guy. However, special mention needs to go to both Jonathan Chase and Mitch Morris, cast respectively as a gay jock and his overlooked smitten best friend. Both guys are incredibly appealing and their relationship provides a surprising amount of sympathy and heart to the proceedings. The script really seems to like all four of the leads and that makes it easier for the audience to accept them at face value even when the comedy heads into the realm of slapstick. Stephanie McVey is also a comic highlight as Blechman's eternally clueless mother. Certainly not something to show your friends who want to watch Hamlet, but a decidedly upbeat guilty pleasure for those in the mood for its kind. Followed by a truly lamentable misfire of a sequel with only one of the four leads returning.

This movie to say the least is a softcore gay porn. The theme of the film was well writing, not including the sex scenes, but all in all I enjoyed the script. The reason for the low rating was because all it needed was a POV Camera and this would of been classified as a porn. This would of been along the lines of the porn flick of Pirates if such camera was placed. I am not homophobic in any case but this is not to be shown to any unsuspecting man, for he will just look as if he was really looking at a porn. The acting was OK though, not Oscar winning but still better than most. I do on the other hand recommend it to anyone who really has an open sense of humor, it did make me laugh but I was also caught off guard.

Some movies are gems in the sewer that is the modern-day movie Western World movie industry. While Hollywood has done everything worth doing and refuses to let anything other than unimaginative bile spew forth from its over-stuffed bowels of mediocrity small companies make movies that are worthwhile, fun and make movies for art rather than for the sake of profit. Having said that, there is sometimes a lot of cinematic excreta to be found there too.This movie came highly recommended to me by an idiot and someone who thought Superhero Movie was funny. Even though warning sirens were going off in my head like a million babies screaming at once, I thought that I may as well keep an open mind and hope that it wasn't so bad. And to my surprise it was just as idiotic as I expected.I don't mind gay people taking pride in their sexuality. I'm straight, go me. They're gay, good for them. But I like a bit of taste in my comedies, which is why I usually shy away from high-concept (read: trashy) comedies. But this took gay pride and cheap, trashy, smutty humour and then went way overboard with it. I felt this movie might have been more akin to homo-erotic videos than to an actual movie.Another gripe of mine was that the characters were so stock they pretty much came out of the Hollywood "Sweatshop for Token Characters Factory for Movies that Appeal to F***wits." And do the people responsible for this movie *seriously* expect me to believe that absolutely everyone within a town is gay? I'm going to stop myself here before I rage further. Anyone who sees this movie and enjoys it should consider a dose of shotgun mouthwash immediately. But it won't matter anyway, since you're all going to accuse me of homophobia. Not that you just read that part, since you stopped reading when I didn't kiss this film's ass.
