Comendo Pelas Bordas 2

This movie really pleasantly surprised me. I expected that its sole redeeming feature would be the eye candy, as was the case with the original. But it was well written, capably directed, and Verraros, Hand, and Kochan gave good, hysterically funny performances. I wouldn't have guessed the latter two had any talent based on Eating Out, but it seems that was all Q. Allan Brocka's doing rather than the fault of the actresses. Working with Bartell's words and direction they're a delight to watch. Brett Chuckerman isn't quite as charismatic as Ryan Carnes was in the same role, but he does a good job. And Marco Dapper... is very, very good looking. (Hey, just because it turned out to be a good movie doesn't mean they forgot the eye candy...)

I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a funny, sexy movie to spend some time with.

One of the other posters here refers to "harsh and unsubstantiated" reviews - how right you are. I'm not sure what people were expecting from a film called Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds, but I found the whole thing delightful from start to finish.

There is ample eye candy in the shape of Marco Dapper and Brett Chukerman. (Although Ryan Carnes is sorely missed. The boy is a subtle and sensitive actor trapped in the body of an Abercrombie & Fitch model.) Yes, there is a totally unbelievable plot, but this is a farce, after all. Rebekah Kochan seems to be channeling Jennifer Coolidge, and I mean that as a huge compliment, and kept me laughing all the way through the film's brisk and breezy ninety minutes.

Great fun.

This film is about an attractive but sexually confused new guy in town, who is pursued separately by an ex-gay couple using vastly different methods.

"Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds" is a lot of fun. It uses a light hearted approach to go about the topic. I like the script, it is entertaining, fun and radiates positivity. It even hits back at homophobia with style. Characters are clichéd but very likable, providing the cheesy and at times visually stimulating entertainment. Production is above average given the low budget, which is not very usual for a gay film. It's a delightful and fun film to watch, if you want a laugh.

Lovers Kyle and Marc have a silly lover's quarrel and each go their separate ways. By chance both come upon superhot male model Troy and each is looking to nail him.

For Kyle, he's even willing to go so far as to pretend to join an ex-gay campus group headed by Jacob. Troy's kind of unsure about his own sexuality. He seems one obliging dude, willing to share sex with just about anyone.

This leads to a whole lot of trouble all around, but in the end all the boys and girls in the film seem to be nicely paired off. I do so love happy endings.

There are lots of laughs in this film, but it actually takes a look at a very serious topic, the preying on impressionable kids just starting to find out about their sexuality by some very uptight people. There's a whole lot of new thinking about human sexuality over the past century and a half, but don't try and tell the fundamentalists anything in that regard.

Best performance in the film is Scott Vickaryous as the ex-gay leader of the campus group. The unveiling of the inner Jacob is something to behold, as is the disrobing of Marco Dapper as Troy.

Worth the price of admission alone.

'Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds' is a sequel that is not really a sequel - unless the common thread of social attitudes and gender dilemmas as an ongoing tale is the source. A low budget, well scripted, tightly directed (Phillip J. Bartell) little film about gay relationships, attraction blunders, and pretending to be something we aren't (mixed representations that Shakespeare used a lot!) result in a light and ultimately charming little movie.

Kyle (Jim Verraros) loves Marc (Brett Chukerman) but tires of Marc's obsession with one-night stands and the relationship is 'over'. Pining Kyle is supported by his two loony girl friends Tiffani (Rebekah Kochan) and Gwen (Emily Brooke Hands), each with gender attraction problems of her own. In an art class taught by flamboyant pseudo-straight Neil (Michael Serrato) the three meet the new nude model Troy (superstud Marco Dapper) and together they hatch a plan to repair Kyle's old damage: Troy for all his demeanor is a bisexual who wants to be straight.... maybe and supplies the key to a game of deceit. The manner in which Kyle fakes a relationship with Tiffani in order to convince Troy to join him in a 'change-over program' (read, get close to him...) leads to a series of hilarious 'go straight' classes and confrontation with parents who play both sides of the 'support our sons' game and leads to a perky ending that just happens to make some comments on perceptions of people, with reality winning.

The cast is young (with the exception of Mink Stole and Sarah Lilly, both of whom offer solid professional backgrounds to their roles) and attractive and seems to be having a great time pulling off this light farce. There is plenty of spectacular eye candy (Marco Dapper, Brett Chukerman, Nicholas James, Adrian Quinonez, James Michael Bobby, etc) and the women's roles are kept light and genuine. A great movie it is not, but a fun diversion it most assuredly is. Grady Harp
