Critic Reviews

• G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle

  Loaded with silliness and eye candy.

• Tom Keogh, Seattle Times

  Eating Out 2 is the kind of sex comedy that can get pretty raw, but it remains playful and smart enough to keep one interested. Performances count for a lot.

• Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times

  [Director Phillip] Bartell crafts some quips, but the momentum falters when he goes maudlin.

• Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times

  Eating Out 2 is sweet-natured, but like the first edition, lame and way too talky.

• Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune

  ... cheerful but one-note ...

• Andrea Gronvall, Chicago Reader

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

• S. James Wegg, JWR

  The jaunty second helping in the Eating Out series is a playful romp through an art school’s halls of desire.

• Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall

  The best surprise about this sequel to the 2004 gender-confusion romcom is that it's actually a better film--sharper, stronger and funnier.

• Don Willmott, Filmcritic.com

  gets most of its chuckles from bitchy zingers and off-the-wall metaphors along the lines of "more tense than Star Jones in a training bra." Rimshot!

• Chris Hewitt (St. Paul), St. Paul Pioneer Press

  No one who saw the wretched Eating Out was demanding a sequel, but it's here and it's a lot better.

• Phil Hall, Film Threat

  For once, a sequel that is infinitely superior in every possible way to the original.

• Ed Gonzalez, Slant Magazine

  The film relishes in capturing those fluid days of youthful abandon when everyone's sexual agency was up for grabs.
