Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild! (2008) User Reviews

It Tries So Hard, but Mostly Stays Limp

[jaybeebrad · 4/10 · 11 December 2008]

If ever there were an "A for Effort" moment it would be Another Gay Sequel. Desperate to mix charm and wit with gross-out teen sexploitation style humor, this film unfortunately provides 10 unfunny moments for every 1 truly endearing or hilarious one.

On a shoestring budget the plot seems borrowed from the video game "Leisure Suit Larry: Love For Sail". A group of four gay teens(ish) head off to Florida for Spring Break and enter a contest to see who can get laid the most.

It's a testament to our changed world that a gay themed sexploitation film can even be made. Unfortunately making gross-out jokes "gay" doesn't make them funny, and so many sight gags and predictable moments occur in this movie that it prevents a real laugh-out-loud experience.

Whether it's "the prettiest boy" ending up with poo on his face from an unclean sex experience or a father and son power-vomiting all over each other because of accidental incest, most of these shallow moments somehow lose their sheen for even the biggest fan of low brow gags.

Saving the film is the character of Nico, the over-the-top femme of the bunch. Actor Jonah Blechman really commits to the role and what could have been an irritating stereotype manages to come off as genuine. There are also some brilliant parody moments including Nico running down the beach in braids a'la Bo Derek in "10", and even a one-off tribute to cult classic Romy & Michele's High School Reunion.

Where the movie really fails in in the attempt to blend boner jokes and toilet gags with genuine plots about monogamy, relationships and discovering one's identity. Could it have been achieved? Yes, but it wasn't.

Shout outs go to RuPaul in a hilarious turn as an androgynous activities directory who seems to exist mostly just to drop cheesy product placements for the movie's sponsors. Other cameos are less entertaining, such as Scott Thompson's reprisal as the not-so-secretly gay dad of one of the boys.

If every genre has to have a bunch of duds in order to find its way to classics, then the gay teen comedy is well on it's way thanks to Another Gay Sequel.

Had me chuckling

[Laakbaar · 5/10 · 9 August 2014]

Yes, this is gay, silly, dumb, offensive, trashy and pornographic film making -- but I still ended up chuckling for most of the 90 minutes.

This one had decent eye candy, more than its predecessor. Although sexier and grosser, this one was probably not as good as the first one. The plot was unfocused. I'm not sure they should have returned with Jonah Blechman and Scott Thompson in the same roles because their shticks seemed less original the second time around. The sequel also seemed to have more ham and cheese.

This is the first film I've seen with a reverse bell curve on IMDb.com. You're either gonna love this one or hate it. I think you should see it, but only if this kind of movie appeals to you. Personally, I wish the director would make more gay comedies. There is a certain coarse honesty and sophistication to these two films, despite it all. And there should be more gay comedies out there.

Comes up short

[Dee-man · 5/10 · 30 December 2008]

I was a huge fan of Another Gay Movie. While some of the gross-out humor got to me, altogether I thought it was a funny, well-meaning and overall entertaining comedy full of fun homages and great eye-candy. Unfortunately, "Another Gay Sequel" gives us about half the effort and a quarter of the laughs that the previous entry served up.

First of all, replacing the main cast members hurt the film big-time. Now, the original cast's reasons for returning (or probable reasons) are explained in the film's opening, but if you're going to replace the original actors, at least attempt to cast actors who look somewhat like them. Part of Andy's appeal in the first film was that he was dorky looking and kind of generic. Here he's got flaming red hair and a buff body. And while it's kind of hypocritical, it kind of irritates me that Griff's hotness is toned down with a twinkier, even more androgynous actor playing him this time around. Jonah Blechman, thankfully, stayed around and offers up some of the film's funniest lines and moments.

The endearing supporting cast from the original film aren't even here this time. Muffster, Nico's mom and Andy's mom are traded in for the hideously unentertaining "Jaspers" and Perez Hilton, who provides what are perhaps the most annoying 5 minutes of screen-time I've ever sat through. Even the chunk of dialogue he has on the airplane, in which he's playing fairly low-key, made me want to pry my eyes out. It's a shame, because half of the film's budget was probably wasted on having him appear. Also, Andy's dad appears very late and randomly in the movie, making me think that they needed to pad the film with gross-out humor to get the running time up to par.

Thankfully, the movie does have its funny and sincere moments. The exchanges between Nico and Stan (Brent Corrigan) are cute and thoughtful, as is the turmoil between Griff and Jarod in deciding whether or not to open up their relationship. RuPaul provides some hilarious one-liners and random appearances in the movie. And the references and homages in the movie - ranging from "Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion" to "10" and "Thriller" - kept me sane.

Altogether, "Another Gay Sequel" comes up short in terms of keeping with the tone of the original, and gives us a bunch of new characters (and actors) who, unfortunately, can't capture the campy and hilarious mood that the first film gave to us.

Disappointment... putting it nicely

[camyado · 2/10 · 28 December 2008]

I did love the first movie. It ran with the idea of making a gay version of American Pie and ran with it. The character's became realistic and though it lost me at times it's charm held me till the end.

The second however, was an abomination. The script needed many many more edits before it made it into production. The fact that all of the actors had to be replaced was one of many problems. Their replacements were not completely thought out. Andy's in particular, seemed nothing like his character in the first.

However the premise still had some promise. Taking them all for spring break sounded very hilarious and had plenty of room for laughs and promiscuity. And we were instantly introduced to "Jaspers" our three antagonists. And Griff and Jarrod's budding relationship opened up the idea of sexual monogamy a real issue that many couples face today, a promise for some type of depth to the entire plot.

They failed.

It seemed like all the plot lines had promise even Nico's rather week like with a bad luck Tiki seems to be the set up for some hilarious consequences.

But then the script fails to deliver.

There was not enough prep put into this movie and there was not enough thought given to the final product. And finally the promise of yet another sequel "Gays in Space" sounds atrocious.

A waste of film...and your time.

[jamesmccormack · 1/10 · 16 August 2009]

Gee, I need to write at least ten lines but can sum it up nicely: THIS MOVIE IS A PIECE JUNK AND NOT WORTH YOUR TIME. What were they producers thinking when they green lighted this mess. It is one of those films that make you feel embarrassed for the cast and want to kill the writers. No redeeming values. No comic value. Lousy acting. I could go on and on. Such is the sorry state of gay cinema. Let's see, the plot device behind this film is a content to determine who can screw and get screwed the most during spring break. As impossible as it many seem, this film makes "Justin Loves Kelly" seem like a work of art. No need to view this film. You have been things to do with your life.

sad distant echo of the original Another Gay Movie

[jvframe · 1/10 · 25 December 2008]

Tonight I sat down to watch the newly arrived "Another Gay Sequel" DVD, expecting it to at least live up to the standard of "Another Gay Movie" (which I had thoroughly enjoyed and can happily recommend). I found myself reaching for the remote to fast forward through too many scenes. The Sequel is really REALLY flaky, extra fluffy and totally pointless. There's nothing at all to be gained by watching it - certainly not any sense of entertainment. I won't even consider watching, let alone buying, a further sequel. Perez Hilton is probably the most annoying aspect of this film, but Ru Paul is hot on his heels for that honour. The basic fault lies in having such an inane script. The bevy of nice looking actors, no matter how naked, had no hope of saving this film.

Finally a movie that makes a gay go straight

[thesar-2 · 1/10 · 21 January 2009]

'Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild' is quite possibly one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Ever. Ever. Ever. And here are words I never thought I would type: If this is the true gay lifestyle and if this is the only exposure someone has to the "gays," I'm going to have to agree with the late Jerry Farewell and condemn the lifestyle. This movie was so unfunny, so unpleasant, it was utterly painful to watch and yes, I had to continue to watch just to see each scene that got more disturbing than the last. I can't even give the cast/crew credit for trying, which I normally do; that's like rooting for the terrorists, for, at least they're attempting to make their voices heard. I've despised movies in the past, but rarely will one both make me cringe as well as almost vomit on how bad it is (Side note: don't eat while watching, as I did – seriously and no joke, I almost vomited.) Shameless product (websites) placements, God-awful attempts at spoofs, jokes – OK more accurately, just flat statements (there are no words to describe) – that are seen thousands frames in advance and loss of respect for the once great RuPaul, for he was in the movie long enough to know how incredibly bad of a decision to support these idiots. Perez Hilton runs around mocking religious anti-gays. Fine, we get it and yes, there's other ways to spread tolerance, or even ridiculing those you don't agree with. The only close-to-funny gag (yes singular) was them making fun of the original cast for failing to return due to "not being labeled as gay for doing two gay-themed movies." More likely, they simply read the script and knew they were above this (ah-hem) bottom-dwelling nightmare.

So many negative reviews, give it a chance...are you expecting 'Milk' from a title like this?

[daniel111916041 · 5/10 · 8 November 2016]

This film is NOT supposed to be taken seriously, that's a given. It's a harmless bash at every gay stereotype you can imagine, it's camp, driven and funny.

Many moments in the film have that extreme cringe factor, but you have chosen to invest time in a movie titled 'Another Gay Movie: Gays Gone Wild' you can hardly expect subtleties like the camera veering off to record a fireplace while sexual activity is implied...

RuPaul and Lady Bunny bring classic drag comedy, while the main cast are easy on the eye and don't appall with their acting skills. The Cameos from Muffster and Nico's Mum are also welcomed with a wide grin.

I would say if you are bored and want to spend an hour and a half amused yet bemused, laughing but not really knowing what at and trying to guess the countless films this one parodies, go for it! Like I said it's harmless!

I Don't Think I've Ever Been So Offended In My Whole Life.

[mcw6957 · 7/10 · 1 February 2009]

My fiancée went to the movies to see the original & when it came out on DVD I watched it with her. I wasn't put off by the rampant homosexuality some of my favorite movies are pretty gay(Mysterious Skin,Shortbus & Hedwig)no it just wasn't filthy enough. Well part 2 exceeded my filthy expectations in full campy spades. One hour forty minutes of trash cinema that had me unable to look at the screen for most of that running time. This is one of those movies that people will love or hate. There's no middle ground. If you don't mind stepping out of your comfort zone & shutting off your brain Gays Gone Wild is a lot of fun. Anyone else ready for part 3 Gays in Space?

Cringe-worthy and pointless. A big disappointment

[imdb-17369 · 2/10 · 25 February 2010]

I've finally got around to watching this movie tonight - albeit with Spanish subtitles - and it truly is ghastly. I, like most of the other reviewers here, really enjoyed the first movie which had life and spark to it. This has none. Yes, there's lots of good looking naked male flesh around but if anyone wants that we all know where to look. The plot is tasteless, and - for me - the scene where Scott Thompson as Mr Wilson (dressed in a dog costume) mistakenly humps his own son, then follows a flurry of vomiting from him, his son and his son's love interest is beyond tasteless. This film is utterly charmless, inane, and I agree that watching paint dry is preferable. I hope that this sequel is just a glitch and a third film in the series will go for charm and not paint all us gays out to be butt-chasing, screaming queens.

Crass, gross, juvenile, and ... downright delinquent! And deep? Loved it!

[arusj · 9/10 · 9 September 2008]

OK, to be frank, this movie was not ever meant to be the best work of cinematography ever, and perhaps the director and the producer may agree. With that said, let's look at it for what it is: an instant cult movie, grotesque, exaggerated (and sometimes painfully real) look at the gay subculture of today, whether people agree with it, or not. Going to this movie with an open mind is, to say the least, the only way to enjoy it. Having preconceived notions and self righteous imperious attitude will only result in disappointment.

I went to see this movie with my best friend and guru, my yoga instructor. I had seen the movie several times, but after her unbiased and objective views, and talking about it at length, I have come to see this movie under a completely different set of eyes.

It was beautiful that two people loved each other so much that in order to stay with each other, they took the time to define their love, their limits. Amidst all the surrounding debauchery, their love prevailed, even in the most of difficult and extraordinary of circumstances.

It was equally beautiful that the red head (slut) found the true love in the Latin guy, which was very pure and exciting, and proved that just having casual sex is so much superficial and different than the feeling behind true love and the act of love making.

In regard to Niko, the main star, the realization that we all sometimes see a little bit of him within ourselves is very touching. In many ways, we often have a self view of us to be so different from the rest of the world, as if we were aliens in our own planet.

Sure, of course, this movie is crass, gross, juvenile, and almost downright delinquent. But, who cares. If you can't laugh at this movie, the very least I can recommend you seek help.

I liked it.

Cheesy, clichéd and unfunny

[Gordon-11 · 21 June 2009]

This film is about four guys having a crazy holiday in Florida, where they participate a race called "Gays Gone Wild".

The title of "Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild!" is very cheesy, which is exactly what this film is about. There is plenty of cheap and dirty humour, with terribly clichéd characters doing terribly clichéd things. There is hardly any credibility in this film even having considered that it is a brain off comedy. Moreover, the "Gays Gone Wild" contest is basically promiscuity, which is grossly irresponsible to promote.

"Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild!" is a disappointing comedy, and it is not really that funny either.

Better than the first.

[dasa108 · 7/10 · 5 November 2022]

Once moderately successful, there is an instant desire to keep stretching the idea until it is exhausted. Following the example of American Pie, the lovable characters appear again, almost entirely played by other actors. Despite this, the secondary and guest stars make the film even more enjoyable than the first by reaching the limit within the vulgarity that is the norm these days. Although it is not a film suitable for all audiences, the sum of clichés and a gigantic number of references to gay culture makes the experience of seeing the film unforgettable. It's not a masterpiece but at least it's better than a lot of stuff being made today.

Not as good as the first one!

[Paulinho17 · 5/10 · 29 December 2008]

Okay. This one is much worst than the first one.

Of course they couldn't make it as good as the first one...but still..

The first thing that I disliked at first sight, was the actor change. I mean the title says it "the sequel", but of all the 4 boys, just one is the same. Although one of the new guys is similar to the previous, all the others are much different, and they are not so good. I mean it. They are terrible.

The story itself isn't that bad. But there's not that passion from the first one that would make you cry; side perhaps from the mermaid.

I really don't recommend this movie for the folks that saw the first one. It's really disappointing. It still has some funny stuff...but....

Don'T Waste Your Time

[daveslists · 1/10 · 3 January 2009]

To say this movie is not only a waste of your time, a waste of time of anyone involved with this "film" and a waste of the energy and anything else associated with this disaster is an understatement...

I did not find one even one scene minorly funny scene, yet found at least a handful which were totally nasty and disgusting...

If this is what passes for humor in the "gay community" today...then let me be an outcast as I cannot find one positive comment to make about this "film" unless you count finally seeing the end of it as a positive...I cannot find one reason why anyone looking at the screenplay for this could conceive why this should have ever been made...were they hoping the mindless sheep would flock (pun intended) to see this film?...I think that whoever heads the studio that made this should be immediately terminated...although this same studio will probably be the next one in line asking for a handout...oops I mean a bailout...oops, I mean a loan so they don't have to file bankruptcy...this studio should go down in flames!

Total crap

[canadianguy62 · 1/10 · 12 February 2010]

A total piece of s#@t! Save yourself two hours of your life and do something meaningful, like watch paint dry!

I really enjoyed the first one and was anxious to see the sequel. I cannot recall if I laughed once. I certainly squirmed a lot, groaned and shook my head.

I have often heard that it is difficult to get a move from script to the screen; too bad that adage did not hold true in this instance.

Ru Paul and Perez Hilton were absolutely awful! The worst of a bad lot (and that is say a great deal!). Brent Corrigan's butt was very nice to look at, but I can find that on-line, along with the rest of his naked body!

Seriously, save yourself and watch something else.

A LITTLE better than the first but that's faint praise

[preppy-3 · 2/10 · 20 September 2008]

The four "lovable" gay guys from "Another Gay Movie" go to Ft. Lauderdale for Spring Break. It seems there's a contest called "Gays Gone Wild" going on there--the object is to be the one to have the most sex partners. Andy (Jake Mosser) is all for it but then falls for handsome Luis (Euriamias Losada). Luis loves him...but won't have sex. Monogamous couple Griff (Aaron Michael Davies) and Jarod (Jimmy Clabots) decide to sleep around--but will their relationship survive? Nico (Jonah Blechman) falls in love with Stan the Merman (Brent Corrigan). Yeah it's stupid but the beach party movies of the 1960s had a mermaid so why not a merman? OK--I HATED the first one. I found it disgusting and horrendously unfunny...but I saw it at a preview and didn't know it was a gross out comedy. This time I KNEW what I was getting into. The humor is still disgusting (unless you find extreme sexual humiliation and bleeding funny) but I was able to deal with it. Still this isn't a GOOD movie by any means.

It's very colorful and the cast is rearing to go. They're all attractive and Clabots and Mosser have beautiful bodies. There's no frontal nudity of them though--just back. The acting is not bad. Mosser overacts dreadfully at first but calms down as the movie progresses and gives out a very affecting performance. Davies and Clabots portray a gay couple realistically and are quite good. Blechman annoys me (WAY too femme) but he was good. Corrigan (whose did gay porn) is quite handsome and charming as a merman. The movie also has a few serious and well-done moments with the guys discussing relationships. Also there are plenty of buff good-looking guys strolling around near naked throughout most of the film. Some great eye candy! However--there's one problem. It's really not that funny. I admit I laughed out loud a few times but not much. Also the gross-out humor is out in full force here--two sequences involving non-stop vomiting and Crazy Glue used as lube are just beyond sick. Also the script wanders all over the place--characters and scenes come up out of nowhere! To make it worse there are parodies of old horror movies thrown into the script seemingly at random. Now I LOVE horror movies and I got the parodies--but they're totally out of place in a gay comedy. My audience sat through them in dead silence.

So, aside from the color, a few good moments, some good acting and plenty of good-looking men this really isn't that good. I can honestly give this only a 2. Seriously--the guys are incredible but the movie is really a chore to sit through sometimes.

Sort Of Disappointing Sequel To An Already Disappointing Sex Comedy.

[filmfan2 · 2/10 · 18 July 2009]

Ho-hum... Like the first movie,if they hadn't put in all the gross out scenes and its over-reliance on "guest star" cameos,as well as a tighter(no pun intended)story,this might have been a better movie instead the disappointing,muddled mess that it is.

Performances from OK(i kinda liked the guys who played Andy & Jarod and Jonah Blechman(?) is a stitch,as always)to the "WTF?".(Perez Hilton,anyone..HELLO!)

The storyline is all over the place,however Again,not a terrible movie but not a winner either.

Stick with the movies it parodies.

Don't waste two hours of your life watching this drivel

[simon-1369 · 1/10 · 8 March 2009]

We loved the first movie (Another Gay Movie), and had read that Another Gay Sequel was 'not as good' and 'trashy'. "Fine," we thought. "So it won't be as good. Sign us up for another fun little gay romp-o-rama anyway."

What a stinking pile of manure this is. I'm having real difficulty believing that Todd Stephens actually had anything to do with this movie. It is not funny at all. In fact, it goes way over the line of the naughty fun of the first film into purely offensive bile. Seriously, this movie made me feel ashamed to be gay.

So the four boys go off to Fort Lauderdale to have as much sex as possible. Great, sounds like fun! Reality: gay men spreading STDs like it's nobody's business, off of their heads on the buzz of hedonism, having dreams about fisting zombies who go so far that hands break through flesh. It's really extremely unpleasant.

And completely unfunny! I mean, how can anybody actually laugh at this drivel? I wet myself with laughter whenever I watch the first movie. This sequel should come with subtitles, telling you when to laugh.

The constant shameless commercials throughout the film (gay porn websites, brands of lube, you get the picture) and the weird misplaced animation sequence of dancing genital crabs are the cherry on the top of just how hideous this film is.

Stephens should have stayed in bed the day he decided to write this film. Maybe he did. Really, don't waste two hours of your life watching this drivel.

A total disaster

[mnpollio · 2/10 · 11 August 2010]

If Another Gay Movie was surprisingly better than anyone had a right to expect, Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild is far worse than one could possibly imagine. This sloppy sequel finds our four heroes reuniting for Spring Break at Fort Lauderdale and entering a contest where the winner bags the most guys. Pretty much nothing works this time around. It seems inconceivable that the same creative minds are behind this sequel. It trods some of the same territory of its predecessor while attempting to strike out in new directions, but fails on both fronts. While the sight gags plumb ever further depths of tastelessness and gross-out humor is at a maximum, very little of it is actually funny. Some of the jokes do not even fit in appropriately with the film. Gone is the feeling of upbeat light-heartedness that grounded the original. Much of that tone was what made it stand out from the pack, but this sequel feels more like one of the crowd lagging towards the very back. Familiar gay faces make appearances again, but mostly to little avail this time. Of the four leads from the original, only Jonah Blechman returns and it comes as little surprise that he contributes the best performance. After a knowing wink in the opening acknowledging the cast changes, the performances are down hill from there. None of the replacements equal or better their predecessors. Aaron Michael Davies and Jimmy Clabots are cute as the gay couple, but they are unable to capture the appealing chemistry generated by Mitch Morris and Jonathan Chase in the original. And the screenplay is no friend to them in that respect. If Michael Carbonaro was a dynamo in the hilarious focal role in the original, then Jake Mosser is downright tragic as a replacement. Mosser is arguably more conventionally handsome than Carbonaro, but he has no comic timing and does literally nothing in the part. Another disappointment is that while the original film truly seemed to like its main characters and have some degree of respect for them no matter the ludicrous indignities being suffered, this sequel rarely treats them as anything more than props for the next gross-out gag. While there is a decent amount of male skin on view, this sequel never manages the feat of the original that was able to expertly balance appropriate amounts of nudity, titillation and comedy. Certainly there are no guilty pleasures as amazing in this sequel as the simultaneously hilarious and erotic moment from the original when three of the guys tapped into a security cam in a gym shower room to perve at a clueless Jason Ridge having a "private" moment. In fact, there really are no memorable moments in this sequel. Word has it that creative mind Todd Stephens wants to push for a third film, but this viewer would caution him to reflect long and hard on what made the first film a success before making so much as another step, because this misfire comes close to flushing the whole franchise down the toilet.

Switch your "reality-based" brain off and just enjoy the madness!

[rayjaygee · 9/10 · 12 January 2009]

First things first; this is not like the first movie. In the first movie you have crazy scenarios occurring within a plausible/realistic context, and the narrative of the story was clear-set and followed a linear unfurling path. However in the sequel, reality has no business here. There's numerous addresses to the camera, ridiculously naff special effects, references to the fact that this is just a movie, for god's sake there's a mythical sea creature in the story!

You can tell from the very beginning of the movie that the aim is not so much to tell a heartwarming coming-of-age story, but rather to make you laugh as much as possible by presenting crazy over-the-top, sometimes revolting, gags which it does with gusto. In fairness, this had to be their approach to making this movie. If they were going to make this a serious and realistic follow-on to the last movie, how could they have possibly explained away why three of the four main leads look completely different?! No, they had to just forget about reality and just go all out for funny gags. And on this level it worked; I laughed throughout the whole movie. Result!!

The only thing I would criticize is the use of "actors" who can't actually act - I'm talking about you Perez Hilton! I cringed whenever he was on screen. It was like watching the antics of the drunken slut at a party; you just felt embarrassed for him.

Jonah Blechman deserves a paragraph of praise. He definitely stole the show in this movie. From his zany uber-camp performances to his heartfelt monologue; kudos Jonah. I don't think the movie would have been anywhere near as good if he had wimped-out and jumped ship like three other certain actors.

Biggest surprise; Rupaul is actually a really good, natural and convincing actor. We don't see enough of him on this side of the Atlantic.

Look, just watch the movie with the intention of having a laugh. Switch off the nit-picking film-critic part of your brain and you will enjoy this movie.

Abysmal

[Jdmaldonado814 · 1/10 · 5 July 2012]

As corny as the first movie was, I still genuinely liked it. This is nowhere near what the first one was. Shame on every single person who had a hand in it. I honestly don't think I've ever seen a worse movie in my life. Giant crabs, incest, golden showers, zombies, mermaids....Who the hell decided it was a good idea to put all that in 1 movie. It's utterly ridiculous. I literally found it hard to watch some of the scenes. I had to close my eyes during some parts because they were so disgusting and/or absurd.

Shame on every single person who had a hand in it.

Please do yourself a favor and avoid this movie at all cost. I wish I had as so many of the other reviews recommended.

Almost, and not even enough

[musicmen04 · 1/10 · 19 March 2009]

It's very rare i turn off movies, especially with a gay theme and rarer that I comment on them, but this movie was so bad I had to do it. The first movie was so great; I still watch it over and over again, but this sequel was filled with nothing but tired and forced humor that the first movie didn't have to try for. I'm not sure if it's the director's fault, but it was such a letdown. I think they tried too hard to be funny or they might have rushed just to get a movie out, but it was just plain terrible. The guys were totally cute and overall did a good job, but maybe they should have taken the time to watch both movies one after another to see where they started to change what didn't need to be changed. I'll still buy the movie to support the cause and sorry for the negative review, but come on Todd, you must have friends that will be honest with you.

Sequelitis

[NoDakTatum · 4/10 · 3 December 2023]

While the word "subtle" doesn't occur to anyone witnessing the further adventures of Nico, Andy, Griff, and Jarod from "Another Gay Movie," I think writer/director Todd Stephens may have had a better sequel if someone had just said "enough already." Nico (Jonah Blechman), Andy (Jake Moser), and couple Griff (Aaron Michael Davies) and Jarod (Jimmy Clabots) head to Fort Lauderdale for spring break. There, they enter a "gays gone wild" contest, where the winner is determined by the most amount of sex a man can possibly have. Our heroes' main competition is Jasper (Will Wikle), constantly flanked by his cronies- Jasper Chan and Jasper Pledge. The Jaspers sabotage the boys, who all begin to question their hedonistic lifestyle.

Seems straight (sorry) forward? A little meh? Don't fret. Perez Hilton plays himself, after getting konked on the head and finding Jesus. RuPaul is Tyrelle Tyrelle, the hotel's activity director. Scott Thompson is not given enough screen time as Andy's equally gay dad who happens to show up in Florida for the sex competition. Come on, Nico finds a mer-man and has a big musical number celebrating sexual urination. However, a lot of the film is just not funny. Stephens wallows in vulgarity and gore when it seems a punchline was lacking. While most of the cast is great, Blechman is the only one of the four leads returning from "Another Gay Movie," Hilton's extended cameo is the same joke over and over. Any attempts at physical comedy thud instead of working. Director of photography Carl Bartels' palette here is so lush and bold, I expected to see colors drip off the screen like spilled paint. Blechman's Nico reminded me of Hedwig, and Moser, Davies, and Clabots are so likable, I cringed at most of the material they were given. For the record, Will Wikle (as the flawless Jasper) is so funny he should get his own film- trust me, you know someone like him, gay or not. The music is fun, especially the opening theme by one Nancy Sinatra, and the overly obvious product placement is a hoot. Yes, there is more a ton of sex, and the explicit content may turn off the casual viewer. I like a good comedy as much as the next guy, but Stephens went for the shock laugh and couldn't get me to smile. Also, for a big loud spoof, not much is spoofed. "Another Gay Sequel: Gays Gone Wild" is like all the really dirty parts of all of John Waters' films gathered together without any context or story.

Good lord no
