While most of the recent outpouring of gay cinema tries to coast on a smile and a little bit of charm, Trick provides some considerable filmmaking cojones to back up its good looks: a talented cast, a witty screenplay, and a sweet sense of romance. Unfolding as part stressed-out fever dream and part farce, Trick chronicles one tumultuous night in the life of aspiring Broadway songwriter Gabe (Christian Campbell), who's suffering from both a heterosexual roommate (who kicks him out when there's female companionship) and a bad case of writer's block. Making an impulsive side trip to a gay bar, he locks eyes with a hunky go-go boy (J.P. Pitoc), who magically appears later that night on the subway, with amorous intentions to boot. Hotfooting their way back to Gabe's apartment, they're interrupted in medias res by Gabe's roommate, girlfriend in tow. From there it's downhill fast, as the two unsuccessfully scramble to find a place to finish things up. On their nighttime odyssey, though, both discover that there's more than sex and heat to their interaction. And much like its premise, Trick evolves from what seems to be a quickie one-night stand to something more substantial, a film with heart and a very funny soul. Jason Schafer's screenplay puts the luckless couple into one bind after another, and furnishes them with incredibly entertaining dialogue; fortunately, both the leads are up to the challenge of bringing it to life. Campbell (Neve's older brother) has a sweet smile and gentle comic timing; the surprise, however, is Pitoc, whose chiseled physique belies both a wicked sense of humor and a sincere-without-being-gooey romantic streak. Both are aided and abetted by a finely tuned supporting cast, most notably Clinton Leupp as an acidic, motor-mouthed drag queen and Tori Spelling in a go-for-broke star turn as Campbell's best friend, a painfully bad singer-actress. By the end of the movie, you'll be entirely won over, and anxiously awaiting a second date and more from these actors and filmmakers. --Mark Englehart

 Entertaining and sweet. December 5, 2008
J D (Savannah, GA Someone save me!)
Most gay movies follow the same tired formula which I will not go over here. I will say this movie is not that much different BUT the actors are believable in their roles, the music is fun, the laughs are pretty good and it is upbeat. It is my own personal experience that leads me to recommend this. The movie is nothing special but it I found it enjoyable.
 Gays as ordinary people people November 21, 2008
Gene Krider (Statesville, North Carolina, USA)
I bought this movie by accident, thinking it was "Tricks." I am not gay but I have written operas and a musical and I could sympathise with the hero. I have had a friend like the girl. The go-go dancer was beautifully played. I liked the song "Enter You." Non-gays should see this for a look into the gay life which is very much like straight life.
Charming, fast paced and romantic film August 7, 2008
Langston Hughes (Little Rock, Ar.)
This is a romantic, funny and very sexy movie. My friends (straight and gay) always enjoy watching it at my place. The guys are really hot; the story is somewhat suspenseful and the music is great. Tori Spelling is hilarious; there is electricity between the male leads and the movie is quite fast paced.
Cute Movie August 7, 2008
A. Howard
Fun, cute romance. The New York City setting adds a lot to this comedy, and Tori Spelling is hilarious.
 Very Cute July 9, 2008

Not the best one out there but it is very cute and heartwarming. The lead was cute but I think Tori Spelling and John Paul Pitoc give the film credibility. Christian Campbell is okay but doesn't seem quite comfortable playing a gay man.
