Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Coffee Date is a fast-paced comedy filled with sexual shenanigans of a misguided kind. Straight-laced Todd (Jonathan Bray) embarks on a blind date with Kelly, but his mundane world is quickly turned inside out when his female date turns out to be a hunk (Wilson Cruz, Party Monster ). Friends and family even his mother not only think he s gay, but help thrust him towards this new romantic endeavor! Surrounded by an excellent supporting cast including comical Jonathan Silverman and Oscar®-nominated Sally Krikland, Coffee Date is a refreshing, madcap comedy of errors and the perfect metrosexual date movie.

This movie dances around the relationship between a gay man and a "straight" man. It definitely has enough laughs to keep the viewer entertained plus an unusual amount of suspense. How will this move end?

The acting is right on. It is a delight.

Straight or gay. A problem many many people wonder about. This story tells it in a novel way. I liked the movie and it was fun to watch.

Since others have described the plot of this film I won't waste time doing it again. I'll just give a few thoughts on what works about it and what doesn't. It definitely has its sporadic charm in more than a few scenes. The actors are quite good, possibly with the exception of Jonathan Silverman, who just wasn't all that credible as the homophobic brother turned full fledged homo. Wilson Cruz and Jonathan Bray were perfectly cast as the gay and straight men caught in a relationship that's misunderstood by everyone around them - the chemistry between them is great! Sally Kirkland is fantastic! It's nice to see her again. She's always had a penchant for playing slightly loopy, clueless characters and doesn't disappoint here. The problem with the film it that halfway through it begins to feel like a broken record. I felt as if I was seeing the same gag over and over again and it got a little tiring. The film also seemed too long. It could easily have been tightened with the removal of a good 10-minutes. But the film's flaws are overshadowed by its charm and sincerity. You'll laugh more than once. Watch it with your honey.

Rating: - So Close And Yet...
Coffee Date is a delightful movie on so many levels. The very premise offers so much and not only to gay audiences. The performances are first rate and charming. There's plenty of eye candy but there's clever dialogue and outrageous scripting that move the story in manners I've not seen before. The last few minutes bothered me and I wish I could give Stewart Wade, the writer and director, the opportunity to make that as good and tight as the rest of the movie. Still, it is his movie, not mine, and if that's my only complaint, I expect he'll be able to sleep nights knowing what a good movie he created.

This is a movie worth adding to one's collection.
