This is a rather insubstantial film that appears more intent on taking a swipe at religious intolerance - especially at the bigotry of the Church of Latter Day Saints - of homosexuality. Wes Ramsey "Christian" is a good looking Lothario who sails through life working as a waiter then seducing and shagging his way through his nights. When a group of 4 young Elders move in to an adjacent apartment, he bets his team in the restaurant that he can seduce one of them. He sets his sights on tall, handsome Steve Sandvoss "Aaron" and off we go... The film does try to address the emptiness of Ramsey's existence and broaden it to a wider comment on promiscuity and shallowness, but mostly it's an over-long love story that takes an age to get anywhere, then ends in really rather predictable way. The plot has more holes than a string vest - and for reasons that do not appears clear at all to me, Jacqueline Bisset crops up from time to time as the almost angelic owner of the restaurant. Sandvoss is very easy on the eye, which does make it watchable - but otherwise, it's just another love story with a sticky start...
