Editorial Review:
College freshman Joe is new to school when he mistakes a rush invitation for a come-on form a cute fraternity brother. He's no less confused after a hazing ritual between him and Christian, his "big brother" in the Greek system, takes an intense and intimate turn. After Joe sets Christian "straight" about his sexual interests, Christian confesses that he himself is straight - but with "issues". A twisted love triangle forms when the confused Christian turns a romantic weekend getaway with his girlfriend into a double-date; inviting along his gay sibling Michael and "little brother" Joe. Trouble starts when Michael and Joe hit it off and Christian is left to face his own issues, straight or otherwise. Special guest appearance by Kelly Clarkson.

wasted money 
2008-06-26 - I bought this cause it looked like it might be good, well that was far fetched! The low budget I can deal with! Its the acting thats aweful! It reminds me of a really low budget edited for TV softcore porn, parts seem to have been chopped out and then pieced together in a not so uniform manner
wuz actually pretty good 
2007-10-28 - look this movie was not all that bad. sure, not every movie can be a huge budget block buster like brokeback mountain was, but this film had a pretty kewl and quirky soundtrack, and the characters had alot of heart. i know, maybe the sexuality of some of the actors may have been a little up in the air, but at least they really put themselves into the role. the character who played joe was good in an oddball sorta way, but by far the best character in the movie is christian, played by dennis rittenhouse. christian plays a crush of joe's, and while sharing a couple intimate encounters, when the lights are on he shys away from commitment or even acknowledgment of thier mutual feelings. this heartbreak is conveyed in an original and really talented way. so in summary for the most part this movie was totally worth watching at least more than once because of the introspective relationship theme and because the acting was heartfelt.
Really bad
2007-10-02 - Were scenes deleted out of this movie because one scene after another didn't make sense. The dialog was all over the place, the acting was terrible, the college guy looked like he's 40, and Kelly Clarkson is in it for some reason.
not as bad as reviewd 
2007-06-12 - this movie is not really as bad as it is said. yes the resolution might not be crystal clear or the actors might not be as experienced but its a very cute movie.
The concept is good but...
2006-06-20 - The concept is good but it stops there. The script is somewhat amateur, the casting is unrealistic in age/maturity perspective and most of all the acting would fail most high school drama classes.
