Review of Trick

Trick (1999)
7/10
A pleasant 90 minutes of fluff.
6 July 2013
The story was nothing special, but the movie was enjoyable because of the two main male actors, Christian Campbell and John Paul Pitoc. I could not stop thinking how easily Christian Campbell could pass as the twin brother of the Northern Ireland actor Michael Legge (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377701/) who appeared in Cowboys & Angels and Angela's Ashes.

For the most part the story is simply a series of sitcom-like frustrating situations that arise as Gabriel and Mark try to get alone together, along with the requisite set of misunderstandings that seem to doom the budding relationship.

It's a pleasant piece of fluff. Watching John Paul Pitoc especially makes the time spent well worthwhile, although some of the supporting characters tend to be annoying ... but then that's life, of which this is meant to be a small slice.
