This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I'm really into gay films at the minute and this one didn't disappoint. There were some moments when I cringed so much, it just felt awkward. The story as a whole was quite cringeworthy to be honest. But you could see where it would end up and I'm happy with how it did. The actors are really hot and, even though the acting isn't great, I loved it for the personalities the actors gave their characters. The ending was extremely awkward right until the point where Caleb's family leaves and the secrets come out. I was so happy that Marc and Kyle got together. They have to be one of the hottest couples in existence.It's essential that you watch to the end of the credits because that's the best part of the film - so damn hot. It was the perfect ending really.

This is a truly remarkable, very funny & yet sensitive movie. Ryan Carnes (Marc) and Scott Lunsford (Caleb) gave the best performance among the cast. Both were so natural on their acting abilities that it didn't surprise me when I heard that this movie won multiple awards.Scott Lunsford created a perfect fit for this character "Caleb" as a reluctant straight guy pretending to be gay so that he can bed down this girl named Gwen(played by Emily Stiles) that he likes who happened to be the best friend and roommate of Marc (Ryan Carnes) who's gay and attracted to Caleb. It's a perfect love triangle so to speak.Emily Stiles did a very good job too playing the role of a fag hug who speaks her mind. The only disappointment to this movie was the acting of Jim Verraros who played the role of Kyle. He may be a good singer but his acting ability apparently shows that he's quite an amateur.Nonetheless, the movie was directed really well. It's truly remarkable that they cast 2 lead actors such as Lunsford and Carnes who are not just good actors but very good looking too. Carnes' acting was worth an academy award while Lunsford's stunning good looks, perfect body shape and dazzling, seductive eyes are total turn ON!!!

Some other person posted this is the worst gay film since "All over they guy," which struck me as a very bad point since "All over the guy" is well received and amongst netflix top rented 20 gay & lesbian film charts, and has remained a top rented for over 2 years. Yes, "Eating Out" is very amateur. Yes, it is a no budgeter, silly plot, and some of it is badly edited. But, ya know what? I enjoyed every minute of it. Part of the reason is I really love Ryan Carnes. I have liked him ever since he appeared on "Desperate Housewives." Ryan is a natural actor and physically a major turn on for me. And there were quite a few funny site gags as well. No, there is no message in this film, there is nothing very realistic in terms of how us gay dudes live, and the entire plot was beyond silly. But among all the low low budget straight to video gay themed comedies flooding the DVD market, this is one I really enjoyed. Yup,many will not agree, but I don't really care. To each their own, right? I liked "eating out."

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.
