MPAA RATING: Not Rated

Starring Jim Verraros, Emily Brooke Hands, Rebekah Kochan, Marco Dapper, and Brett Chukerman

How far would you go to get the person of your dreams? In "Eating Out," Kyle (Verraros) convinced his straight roommate to pretend to be gay to get the girl. Now, with the help of Gwen (Hands) and Tiffani (Kochan), Kyle pretends to be heterosexual to land Troy (Marco Dapper), the new guy -- and nude model -- in town, only to find himself joining the campus ex-gay support group and nabbing a girlfriend! Kyles ex boyfriend, Marc (Chukerman), is horrified at the plan and decides to pursue the confused Troy with his own tactic -- being his out gay self. Who will win him first? In the boy eat boy, boy eat girl world of Eating Out 2: Sloppy Seconds (the first American gay sequel ever), stakes get raised, sexual boundaries are obliterated, and the answer is never what you might expect!

Chicago Reader Andrea Gronvall
This video sequel to the gay comedy "Eating Out" (2004) is funnier, lighter, and faster paced.

Film Threat Phil Hall
The ultimate rarity: a sequel that is miles ahead of its predecessor in every imaginable department.

Variety Robert Koehler
Sequel is no more than a cheapo campy goof, but this edition does contain a higher quota of laugh lines and an unsubtle message that efforts to make gay youth "go straight" is destined to fail.

Village Voice Rob Nelson
As before, the fun is somewhat capped by absurdly stilted acting and daytime-soap-quality DV, but the nonstop sub-Araki glibbage is plenty peppy and so is Rebekah Kochan's ding-a-ling Tiffani, a dead ringer for 90210's Tori Spelling.

Boston Globe Wesley Morris
This sequel, with the return of the first movie's insatiably slutty Los Angeles collegians, is as vulgar as its predecessor and just as almost-smart.

Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
Eating Out 2 is sweet-natured, but like the first edition, lame and way too talky.

The New York Times Jeannette Catsoulis
A Rubik’s Cube of shifting sexual orientation and elaborate sex fantasies, “Sloppy Seconds” gathers all the accouterments of soft pornography -- cheesy music, low-rent acting and attractively framed genitals -- into a plot of stunning imbecility.

San Francisco Chronicle G. Allen Johnson
A rollicking comedy for the gay niche that rarely rises above the level of a high school skit, Phillip J. Bartell's sequel to 2004's "Eating Out" is loaded with silliness and eye candy.

Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington
A soft-core sex comedy that keeps throwing out comic variations on the idea of the line between gay and straight sexuality.

Aaron V. gave it a0:
I can get past the sloppy filmmaking but this movie just isn't funny at all.

Allen f gave it a1:
The best thing I can say about this is it's better than the first one. Why I wasted $11 watching it I've yet to determine.

Kevin C. gave it a0:
Not very funny at all. Rent it if you've seen everything else in the store.

Jim W gave it a0:
Completely forgettable and lacking in entertainment value.

Zod M gave it a10:
Hilarious movie. Saw it at Outfest and the laughter was so loud you couldn't even hear lines toward the end. A real crowd-pleaser, and a lot better than the original!

allan b gave it a0:
subpar sex farce. nothing remotely amusing or intelligent. nothing to recommend.

Martin L gave it an8:
Wow, it's a love it or hate it! I'm somewhere in the middle, but closer to love than hate. Some of the actors were better than others, but the ex-gay meeting and the going down scene were really really funny, and I don't care that it looks low budget cuz it probably is!
