The Worst Film Ever

Absolutely the worst movie.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Sweet office boy Gabriel (Christian Campbell), a wannabe Broadway musical writer, is forced to spend a night out on the town when his selfish straight roommate keeps monopolizing the apartment for flings while his girlfriend is out of town, and ends up meeting the handsome Mark (John Paul Pitoc), a quietly charming dancer who entices him for a fling. The only problem is neither of them have a place to go, and when they do manage to find time alone in Gabriel's apartment, they are interrupted by his comically neurotic friend (Tori Spelling) and later the girlfriend of the roommate. So while trying to find a place to successfully do what the boys do, they find they share more than just a desire for sex, being tricked by fate (as the theme song reveals) as they possibly head for more than just being each other's "tricks" (a slang term for pick-up).Taking another gay tale of the naked city, "Trick" ends up being a sweet and likable romantic comedy, taking the viewer into the nightclubs of Chelsea, an Off-Off Broadway theater, a piano bar, a late-night village diner, and finally to the corner of 7th Avenue and Christopher Street as the two new acquaintances part. "What kind of a girl do you think I am?", the confidently macho Mark asks when Gabriel inquires about their initial plan for sex. Along the way, there's a visit with Gabriel's older effeminate friend (Steve Hayes), who sings a dirty song in Spanish, a truly hysterical intentionally bad performance from Spelling as she sings one of Gabriel's songs at a musical theater workshop, and views of various types of gay and lesbian characters, some naughty, some nasty, a few nice, yet all identifiable to anyone who has ever ventured into a metropolis gay ghetto. Campbell and Pitoc share a sweet chemistry that has you really rooting for them, and you will laugh until you cry at the obnoxiously over-demanding character that Spelling plays. There's also a fabulous cameo by Miss Coco Peru who is not afraid of allowing the camera to get a little too close to her face to parody the drag queen image which only serves to show that there's more beyond her than what you see on screen.As far as this one's place in the over-emergence of gay cinema in the 1990's, it certainly is one of the more interesting, because it really explores the desire to find love while de-emphasizing the physical nature of the stereotypical sexually needy gay male. Even its title is a metaphor, the first impression being that it is all about the pick-up, then raising that flag in the viewer's head that indeed, it was about something else all the time.

This film is about a shy young man going out of his closet by picking up a go go boy. However, they don't have a place to go to, and the next few hours become a chaotic mess.This is a linear film that concentrates on the events that happen on one unbelievable night. The story is simple and straightforward, but convincing. There are a lot of scenes with great music and eye candy scenes. The acting is mediocre, and the only person to have stood out on acting skills is Tori Spelling. She successfully portrays this annoyingly enthusiastic woman who cannot stop talking.The good thing about this film is that it is funny and entertaining. It does not play on the stereotypes, and does not show anything gross or degrading. It is a rather enjoyable film.

I knew this movie existed for some years, and after a while I decided to give it a chance, and I'll never regret it. It's one of the sweetest, most romantic, and funniest movies I've ever seen.Some people complain about the credibility of the storyline, but it's not supposed to be credible.The whole story makes you believe that it's possible to meet the one by a "trick of fate", as the end credits song says.Definitely it's worth watching several times. I own the DVD and watch it every once in a while, and I always get a biiiiiiig smile during the last scene.

This is the coolest 'Love At First Sight' gay movie with a plot out there in the world. This movie is the best. Christian Campbell and JP Pitoc did a excellent, excellent job in this movie. The portrayal of the cute nerdy guy that doesn't work out (much) meeting the sexy hot go-go boy was superb. Tori Spelling did a good job too with the singing and dancing to Christian's character piano playing. The funniest part of the movie was the roommate Rich, played by Brad Beyer. He was the roommate from HELL. This movie was filled with some common things that normally happens when a guy tries to pick up another guy from a club or bar and these guys portrayed it well. I loved the cameo of Joey Dedio (Captain Planet) in this movie also. All-in-all the movie gets TWO thumbs up from me.
