Movie Reviews of Another Gay Movie (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: Superb Cast in a Wonderfully Over the Top Parody
Summary: 4 Stars
Todd Stephens offers his second fine film about gay life (Edge of Seventeen was his first) and aptly titles it ANOTHER GAY MOVIE. It is a colorful, fast-paced, wonderfully silly, knock 'em dead parody of gay stereotypes boasting a fine cast of actors who know how to pull this caper off and seem to have a terrific time doing it!
Four gay high school friends make a pact at graduation that they will loose their virginity before Labor Day. Egged on by the gross lesbian Muffler (Ashlie Atkinson) the four plan their ploys in a funny session and the fun begins. Andy (Michael Carbonaro), in constant fantasy about his teacher Mr. Puckov (Graham Norton) 'prepares' himself with various instruments only to be discovered in embarrassing situations by his wild mother (John Epperson aka Lypsinka) and his bisexual father (Scott Thompson). Nico (Jonah Blechman) is so over-the-top outrageous that he believes no one knows he is gay - not his warmly wise mother (Stephanie McVay) or his hilarious blind 'girlfriend' Daisy (Joanna Leeds). Star-struck he goes after celebrities such as Richard Hatch (playing himself) to little avail. Jarod (Jonathan Chase) seems to have little trouble attracting studs like Beau (studly James Getzlaff) and Griff (Mitch Morris) is stricken with the hunky stripper Angel (the ever so buff Darryl Stephens). Each young man finds the trail to loss of virginity a trial but it all comes together 'in the end'.
Films like this are tough to pull off: audiences think they will be offended by the fairly frank and inside jokes. And perhaps with a less talented cast the movie could be off-putting. But this ensemble cast knows just how far to push the button and the result is a hilarious romp that has a lot of very worthwhile undertones. Grady Harp, November 06
Movie Review: Bright Lights, Suburban Angst
Summary: 4 Stars
If only all gay movies were like "Another Gay Movie." It's deliciously irreverent, it's sweet and silly and sexy and funny. It's filmed in lurid, saturated colors and has charmingly simple sets. It betters the off-kilter energy of "Girls Will be Girls," "But I'm a Cheerleader," "Die Mommie, Die!" and everything else that inspired it. I suggest that this is what "Far From Heaven" should have been.
A few of the film's best moments: the enema scene, the lesbian's "This is out of my jurisdiction" line, and the sweet moment at the end of the aerobics class when the instructor invites the studious, awkward student to the bar.
A comedy like this pleases even more because of its references to wicked films like "Mommie Dearest" and "Carrie," and to the funniest scene in "The Sweetest Thing" (if only the rest of "The Sweetest Thing" had been this good). Mommie Dearest as a character is surprisingly subtle--but (have no fear!) that doesn't prevent the wire hanger moment at the film's beginning from being scary in its own way.
The film goes happily along, combining nudity, humor, and wonderfully varied characters. The four central characters are, of course, stereotypes in a film that sends up stereotypes, but here, in this raunchy comedy, they're so well written and so well played that they suggest greater depth than they do in Very Serious films.
Those looking for strong moral values in the film will want to see the glass table sequence, practically a public service announcement for ingénues everywhere. Everyone who can appreciate things witty and bawdy will want to rent--and maybe even consider buying-- this totally gay movie.
Movie Review: Way over the top
Summary: 4 Stars
It took me awhile to sit down and watch this movie. Only because I am a big fan of gay movies and I wasn't sure how this would be. I shall tell you it is quite funny. Just like in the american pie movie four friends decide to try to lose their virginity. They don't just want any guys they want older college men. The four characters are the over the top Nico whos mother has no idea he is gay. (She is played by the same women who played the mother in edge of seventeen) We also have Jarod the straight acting top. Insecure with his penis size. Griff, the valeditorian of the school who wants to know how to work it. Next is Andy Wilson, the bottom boy who wants to be subdued by his teacher. His mother depicts Joan Crawford. All throughout the movie there is sexual tension between Griff and Jarod. Each one has an experience with a guy that doesn't go quite right. They use many scenes from different movies. Edge of seventeen, The Broken Hearts Club, Bad News Bears, Ect. Guest appearences by Darryl Stephens who plays Noah on Noahs Arc, Stephanie Mcvay, Scott Thompson, Graham Norton, as well as others. With such a good looking cast and all the butt shots this is quite the gay movie.Movie Review: The gay version of American Pie
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this movie not knowing anything about it because Amazon offered it with another film I wanted for a farily cheap price. And I am so glad that purchased it. This is what American Pie would be if all the characters were gay... with quiche. Four frineds set out during their last free summer before college to loose thir anal virginity urged on by one larger than life Lesbien named Muffler. The guys run the gambit of some uniquely funny gay sexual situations and frustrations. From the first time that you had and enema before sex, daddy bears, bubble butts, poppers, bondage, and penis angst, just to name a few. You'll notice that the movie is not rated, but I would guess that it would be an NC17 due to a few scenes of male full frontal nudity. Overall, I would defeintly recommned this movie.. I'm still laughing and saying WTF.Movie Review: So Hysterical!
Summary: 4 Stars
I laughed my F-ing a%$ off. This was so hysterically funny. The director described it as a Gay "American Pie." I suggest seeing this if you can accept that funny is funny no matter what the sexual orientation. I watched it with a guy, and, although he looked away at some of the "unrated" scenes, he generally got a kick out of it too.
I would rate this on the same hilarity level as Jenny McCarthy's "Dirty Love." The only criticism I have of the film is that they relied a little TOO much on stealing scenes from the Pie movies throughout. But totally worth the money, whether renting or buying.
