Amazon.com:
While most of the recent outpouring of gay cinema tries to coast on a smile and a little bit of charm, Trick provides some considerable filmmaking cojones to back up its good looks: a talented cast, a witty screenplay, and a sweet sense of romance. Unfolding as part stressed-out fever dream and part farce, Trick chronicles one tumultuous night in the life of aspiring Broadway songwriter Gabe (Christian Campbell), who's suffering from both a heterosexual roommate (who kicks him out when there's female companionship) and a bad case of writer's block. Making an impulsive side trip to a gay bar, he locks eyes with a hunky go-go boy (J.P. Pitoc), who magically appears later that night on the subway, with amorous intentions to boot. Hotfooting their way back to Gabe's apartment, they're interrupted in medias res by Gabe's roommate, girlfriend in tow. From there it's downhill fast, as the two unsuccessfully scramble to find a place to finish things up. On their nighttime odyssey, though, both discover that there's more than sex and heat to their interaction. And much like its premise, Trick evolves from what seems to be a quickie one-night stand to something more substantial, a film with heart and a very funny soul. Jason Schafer's screenplay puts the luckless couple into one bind after another, and furnishes them with incredibly entertaining dialogue; fortunately, both the leads are up to the challenge of bringing it to life. Campbell (Neve's older brother) has a sweet smile and gentle comic timing; the surprise, however, is Pitoc, whose chiseled physique belies both a wicked sense of humor and a sincere-without-being-gooey romantic streak. Both are aided and abetted by a finely tuned supporting cast, most notably Clinton Leupp as an acidic, motor-mouthed drag queen and Tori Spelling in a go-for-broke star turn as Campbell's best friend, a painfully bad singer-actress. By the end of the movie, you'll be entirely won over, and anxiously awaiting a second date and more from these actors and filmmakers. --Mark Englehart

Rating:  - Very Cute
Not the best one out there but it is very cute and heartwarming. The lead was cute but I think Tori Spelling and John Paul Pitoc give the film credibility. Christian Campbell is okay but doesn't seem quite comfortable playing a gay man.

STORY WASN'T VERY INTERESTING.I'VE SEEN MUCH BETTER WHEN COMPARED TO LATTERDAY AND KISS THE BRIDE
Rating: - What did I Order Here!!!!!
I ordered this while on a Tori spree,I ordered her book & I Love Tori so I looked up movies she had done & I never saw or herd about this one so I ordered it paying No Mind to the cover,well I watched it today & aside from Tori Not being in what 75% of the movie I "thought" I read the reviews,I usually do if I've never seen the movie,SURPRISE to Me it's about 2 Gay Men & it dose little for this single,straight,mom,but aside from it not being my forte I did like the guy Derry/Barry the older guy & Hot guy who had his glasses on his forehead while at bar,and few other parts.
Rating:  - Trick Is A Treat: One of my All-Time Favorites
I can't imagine there will ever be a better gay-date movie than Trick.
With two extremely-appealing leads, a witty and romantic script, surprisingly good performances by a host of players, including the totally fresh and unexpected Tori Spelling, and even a sweet soundtrack, Trick will make you want to run right out and fall in love. Not even the hardest heart could watch Trick and not root for the two adorable male leads to finally get together and consummate their long-delayed first kiss.
Christian Campbell is the most-winning boy ever as Gabriel. They couldn't have picked a cuter actor, and he performs the role with a totally crush-worthy innocence and lack of confidence. He fumbles, he blushes, he shuffles, he bats his pretty eyes and looks downward - you'll just want to take him in your arms and protect him from the big bad world.
As his object of affection, John Paul Pitoc is not as strong an actor, but, by the halfway mark, you come to appreciate his sleepy demeanor and sexy New York accent. Pitoc brings a sly charm to his role, and, if he were any sexier, you'd probably find yourself humping the TV.
If they ever give an Oscar for Best Performance by a Drag Queen EVER, Clinton Leupp - in his alter ego of Miss Coco Peru - better get the prize. His brief time onscreen is hysterical and electrifying. He lip synchs a disco version of I Am Woman with a fierceness that will make you forget Helen Reddy ever existed, and his scene with Campbell ... Read More
