Review

One of the funniest and sweetest gay romantic comedies in years, Is It Just Me? delivers a refreshingly witty take on one gay boy’s search for Mr. Right. Cute, but unaware of his adorableness, Blaine (Nicholas Downs), a newspaper columnist can’t seem to meet guys, let alone form a relationship. His beefy go-go boy roommate Cameron— who has no shortage of willing partners —can’t understand why he doesn’t pounce and enjoy some one-nighters. Instead, Blaine hides in his room and searches Internet chat rooms for a kindred spirit. He may have found one in the form of Zander, a shy recently relocated Texan. But when the time comes to exchange photos, Blaine accidentally sends an image of his hunky roomie, and things go from romantically promising to just confusing. This case of mistaken identity escalates when Blaine begs his roommate to go out with the charming, sandy-haired Zander. When it seems they hit it off, our lonely hero feels love has passed him by again... or did it? Think Cyrano de Bergerac by way of Eating Out, writer/director J.C. Calciano’s first feature film is a hilarious, captivating winner. And the guys aren’t bad either!

Sweet movie

I was skeptical in seeing this movie becuase it just seemed to scream "fluff"....however, after watching, I can say I was wrong, this really is a good movie.
The storyline is as old as time, just freshened abit, the actors quite good, the eye-candy, gratuitous, yet tasteful.
This movie reminds us all of our insecurities, of the "tangled webs" that we've weaved, and the torture of pining for another.

Cute and charming

Wow, a gay movie I actually enjoyed! I wish I had seen it at the movies with a group of friends. This is a movie we need to support.

The story is not original: boy meets boy, boy lies to boy, boy loses boy and finally boy get's boy! But the actors are so appealing that it makes it work. Gosh darn it, if that damn cowboy didn't won me over, even when his "acting" skills were a little lacking. But I have a soft spot for cute cowboys!

I chuckled from the newspaper subscription calls. I get a lot of those here in Austin, ugh!
The aspect of this movie I enjoyed the most, was there were no crazy or demented characters with bizarre motivations. I actually cared what happened to the characters. A job well done by the director, J.C. Calciano. I look forward to seeing more of his work!

Was this movie wonderful? or is it just me?

This is indeed that rare gay-themed movie: witty and entertaining, with a very talented cast, and devoid of that too-familiar low-budget feel. It is filled with interesting (if somewhat stereotypic) characters, and will charm the pants right off of any self-respecting card-carrying gay man, and perhaps a few of your friends, as well. Admittedly, it starts with the standard boy-meets-boy premise, but takes us on an enjoyable "will-they/won't-they" ride. ( No, the outcome is never really in doubt. ) Buy this DVD to put right next to "Trick" on your "favorite movies" shelf.

It's old Hollywood. Boy meets boy - boy loses boy -boy gets boy. I loved every minute of this movie!

Isn't it Romantic!

Wow - I really enjoyed this movie! The storyline and writing was extremely well done and the actors played their characters superbly. It's been awhile since a gay romantic movie this well done has come along. Is it just me? was worth the wait!
