Eating Out: The Open Weekend DVD review

Zack (Chris Salvatore) and Benji (Aaron Milo) decide to vacation at an all-male resort in Palm Spring and face a difficult decision when one of them suggests they explore an open relationship for the weekend. Still smarting from his break-up with Zack, Casey (Daniel Skelton) decides to take a break with Penny (Lilach Mendelovich) and they end up at the same resort. Determined to show Zack heā€™s moved on Casey convinces Peter (Michael Vara) to pretend to be his boyfriend unaware that things are far from plain sailing between Zack and Benji.

Eating Out: The Open WeekendĀ is the fifth instalment in the popularĀ Eating OutĀ series. Popular characters Zack, Casey, Benji, Penny and Lily all return for another sex comedy with its tongue firmly in its cheek.Ā Ā Eating OutĀ is as loved as it is criticised but if you go into the movieā€™s expecting a saucy and fun time then you wonā€™t be disappointed.The Open WeekendĀ is perhaps the raunchiest instalment yet with plenty of male flesh on display (and some hot ladies if youā€™re into that kind of thing).

The Open WeekendĀ is a worthy follow-up to last yearā€™sĀ Drama CampĀ and continues to build on the characters weā€™ve come to know and love. Zack has to adjust to not being the hot one in his relationship, Casey canā€™t decide if he wants Zack back or not and Penny and Lily face-off for the attention of a man. Benji on the other hand wants to shag everything that moves and makes Zack question his decision to leave Casey.

Over the course of the movie thereā€™s the usual shenanigans where the characters deceive one another, enjoy a few sexual encounters and are forced to face their true feelings. All of them learn that what they thought they wanted may not be the case but itā€™s how they get to that conclusion that is so entertaining.

The selling point ofĀ Eating OutĀ has always been its hot cast and this new instalment certainly doesnā€™t disappoint. Not only do we get the smoking hot Chris Salvatore, Aaron Milo and Daniel Skelton, we also get a new addition in the shape of Michael Vara. Vara plays Peter, an old school friend of Caseyā€™s and brings an additional layer of buffness and pecs to the proceedings.

Of course we love seeing our favourite Aaron Milo back on our screens and heā€™s looking hotter than ever as the rather saucy Benji. He gets to flex a bit more of his acting muscles in this movie and he also gets plenty of opportunities to wear next to nothing (which is absolutely fine by us).

Eating Out: The Open WeekendĀ will delight fans who have followed the series so far. Aiming to be a gay equivalent to theĀ American PieĀ series,Ā Eating OutĀ always delivers on its promise of sex, nudity and buff guys.Ā The Open WeekendĀ is a thoroughly enjoyable raunch fest and weā€™ve got our fingers crossed that a sixth movie will be following in the not too distant future.
