The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of Ethan Green Trailers

Ethan Green (Daniel Letterle) has no problem finding guys who want to sleep with him or even date him, but finding someone to settle down with is a different story. Given three choices -- a sexy teenager, a hunky jock, or his ex-boyfriend who is about to get married -- will he find a Mr. Right, or is he destined to an unfabulous existence. Based on a popular gay-themed comic strip.

Reviews

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
larapha A lot could be said about this somewhat neglected movie. Where Ethan a woman, situations would differ very little, perhaps with less skin. The plot centers on the difficulties of Ethan in finding Mr. Right, for, as was stated by another reviewer, he looks for Mr. Alright. It's a reality for many people, always in search of prince charming. This is told in a light, hilarious way. Ethan is surrounded by a cast of beauties (with a cutest David Monahan among them) and drops them all, for one reason or another, or simply for no reason at all. A film that can be seen many times, with different moods and appreciation, bringing joy and, why not, some philosophical insights.
nyghtweaver I went into this movie with low expectations due to several reviews. I learned the lesson in early childhood to 'never judge a book by it's cover', and somehow I forgot that lesson when reading those reviews. I've recently been making my way through a series of gay themed movie, and this ranks among the top of I've seen. It was funny and heart warming and sad at times. And yes, it was somewhat predictable. However, another saying I learned was 'it isn't the destination, its the journey'. Certainly true in this case. This is a strong comedy all by itself. As a gay comedy, again it is one of the best I've seen. The Hat Sisters absolutely stole the show. Give it a try. I don't think you'll be sorry.
stingwin-1 If you want a very funny movie than this is it. Very good gay movie.. Very good gay movie and David letterle does a good job in making us laugh. The situations he gets himself in a very funny. ..He was great in camp and i had to look and make sure it was him. He is a little older in this movie but still$$$$$..if you know what i mean. I buy a lot of DVD movies and end up selling them but this one is a keeper. I watch it and it picks up my day. There a lot of other personalities in this movie. I wish this was my life but no way . So go out and buy this movie and enjoy it when your down. It will make you smile and wish it was you. So smile away.
gradyharp A funny line from a funny song, but somehow it captures the mood of this light little comedy, made with enough wit and ingenuity to keep our attention, rehashing some tired gay stereotypes with a fresh approach, and in the end just offering a pastiche that should find an appreciative audience. George Bamber takes on his first directing role and uses a comic strip (Eric Orner) translated for the screen by David Vernon and populates his movie with an attractive cast of men (and women) and ably manages to make the individual frames of a comic strip almost become a smooth storyline.Ethan Green (the talented Daniel Letterle) has problems with relationships: he has been in many from Juarez (Ramon De Ocampo) who still lives with Ethan's gay boy loving mother Harper (Meredith Baxter), to previously closeted baseball player Leo (Diego Serrano), to Kyle (David Monahan) to the very young Punch (Dean Shelton). The crux of the story revolves around the difficulty of selling Leo's house and the ways in which the various ex-lovers interact provides the somewhat frustrating line of dialogue.Comic relief is supplied by two elderly gentlemen known as the Hat Sisters (Joel Brooks and Richard Riehle) as well as the shenanigans of the real estate people. Of course we know from the beginning who will end up with whom, but the getting there is fairly fun. The cast obviously has such a good time with the film that they forget to enunciate and so much of the dialogue is swallowed. But they are all fun to watch so it matters little that the superficial aspects of the story remain sub rosa. Grady Harp, October 06
