Film ThreatPhil Hall
The idea of a gay version of "American Pie" might not seem too tasty, but Another Gay Movie offers a fabulous surprise in not only matching that rude boy classic's unapologetic rude humor but by establishing its own identity as a genuinely funny and often touching coming of age comedy.

New York PostLou Lumenick
A fabulous and often hilarious variation on "American Pie" that substitutes quiche, gerbils and various sex toys for apple pie. Read full review

Entertainment WeeklyOwen Gleiberman
Stephens stages Another Gay Movie in a style of low-budget fluorescent overkill, but a handful of the gags are low-down funny. Read full review

Likable-to-a-point. Read full review

VarietyRobert Koehler
This is son-of-John-Waters with most of the grossness but none of the essential anarchism -- silly pop trash set for vid-classic status in gay households. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterFrank Scheck
In his director's statement, filmmaker Todd Stephens proclaims that he wants his latest effort to be "the gayest movie ever made." Damn if he doesn't succeed. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleG. Allen Johnson
An over-the-top, rollicking, candy-colored raunchfest. Read full review

Seattle Post-IntelligencerPaula Nechak
The film, despite the occasional gross-out joke, can't disguise the fact that it's a sweet old sappy -- even dated -- love story. Only Molly Ringwald is missing. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKevin Thomas
Writer-director Todd Stephens set out to make the raunchiest gay teen movie ever, which this picture most certainly is, but the result is far more frenetic than funny. Read full review

TV Guide MagazineKen Fox
There's a fine line between subversively transgressive and just plain gross, and this coming-of-age-movies parody from Todd Stephens, who wrote and directed the charming and underrated "Gypsy 83," crashes right over it. Read full review

Chicago TribuneSid Smith
Combine the uninhibited raunchiness of John Waters with the gross-out zeal of the Farrelly brothers and you get Another Gay Movie, a parody and comedy more numbingly disgusting than funny. Read full review

Boston GlobeMichael Hardy
You get the impression that the cast and crew of Another Gay Movie could have made a genuinely funny film if they weren't obsessed with out-grossing the already gross "American Pie." Read full review

The A.V. ClubScott Tobias
Arriving late to the scene, Another Gay Movie coughs up the same awkward gags about coming of age via false starts and sexual humiliation, only the genuine sweetness and camaraderie that made the first "Pie" movie bearable has been replaced by glib self-awareness. Read full review

Village VoiceR. Emmet Sweeney
Boasting a "Scary Movie" rate of scatalogical jokes-per-minute, it fails to match that franchise's low yield of guffaws. Read full review

L.A. WeeklyTim Grierson
Making a gay film only slightly less intolerable than its straight counterparts isn't much to be proud of. Read full review

The New York TimesNathan Lee
A rude, rollicking and exceedingly raunchy attempt to turn "American Pie" into "American Quiche." Read full review

Chicago ReaderJ.R. Jones
The word "raunchy" doesn't begin to describe this. Read full review

Washington PostAnn Hornaday
Whether or not it's crucial for the gay community to have its own "Porky's" is a question for the ages; but please, not Another Gay Movie. Read full review

A devastating disappointment. Badly acted, amateurishly directed and woefully unfunny. Read full review
