What is it about American gay soaps that they almost always have to follow the same shy and retiring lad lives with sexually accomplished beefcake storyline? This time it’s “Blaine” (Nicholas Downs) who lives with the sex-machine that is “Cameron” (Adam Huss). They are good friends, but “Blaine” has an habit of overdoing it with the men in his life, scaring them off then returning to his flatmate for advice that is always the same. One day, “Cameron” is cruising using his pal’s laptop and the end product is that contact is made with “Xander” (David Loren) who chats with “Blaine” but thinks he looks like… Well, you’ve got the gist. Rather than just own up, though, he decides to try and play the date through and that sets us on a fairly obvious course of mistaken identity, lies, and pretty much everything else from the “Janet and John” book of contrived, implausible, rom-coms. It does manage to take a ping at those folks who order coffee that is extra hot and extra foamy and at the fickleness of the internet one night stand community, but in no way that is remotely original. The ending suggests someone told the director they were running out of file space, so it is compacted into a two or three minutes that really sums up this predictable and over-scripted cheese fest. They are all easy on the eye, it’s not a difficult film to watch, but I wouldn’t bother if I were you.
