Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
This underrated comedy-drama by Andrew Fleming may one day be seen as a reflection of the muddled sexual politics of the 1990s. Three dissimilar college students played by Lara Flynn Boyle, Stephen Baldwin, and Josh Charles become unlikely best friends, forging a relationship so exclusive it actually troubles onlookers. From the inside, however, the trio are enjoying the safety of their own bond and exploring varying needs of love and sexual adventurousness. Erotic, bawdy, sensuous, mysterious, and nostalgic, the film can make a viewer envy the state of grace these characters have found with each other. All three actors have never been better. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - A Great Gay Comedy/Drama
"Threesome" is about the different kinds of relationships people can find themselves in the world. Two guys are best friends in college and one happens to be gay. The gay guy falls for the straight guy and then a girl comes into the picture, making things a little complicated. The script is strong and the performances are splendid, especially Stephen Baldwin. Film is in widescreen format and comes with a wonderful director's commentary. There's also a great ending to the story as one figures out ... Read More
Rating:  - Threesome is wicked cool
This is a story of three college friends. At first a mix up with the first name of a female student lands her in a male dorm. They try to tolerate each other (well she trys to tolerate her male room mates) but they eventually become the best of friends and then something more flares up between them. I liked it because it broke the rules of friendship and even though it was a bittersweet ending you could tell that they were glad to have known each other.
Rating:  - Maybe a little close to home
This is an unabashed hyper-hormone, sexual-tension comedy filled to the brim with small truths and nostalgic college coming-of-age moments. If you didn't have friends like this in college (at least maybe a little) then you missed out.
This threesome is driven and largely controlled by one Lara Flynn Boyle, who is fantastic and energetic and believeable as the drama queen trying to get the gay guy while the straight guy pines away for her (and she gets to spurn his every advance.)

Rating: - Funny and Poignant Look at College Life
Threesome (1994), despite some lapses into puerile humor, remains a thoughtful film about college life. While films like Reality Bites (1994) focus more on the trials of life after college, Threesome ventures into the lives of three students who meet during their third year of school. Eddy (Josh Charles), a transfer student, finds himself assigned to room with a likeable yet Neanderthal-esque, Stuart (Stephen Baldwin), whose primary focus in life includes cutting corners, drinking, and conquering hapless ...

Rating: - Not For Prudes
I bought the VHS in 1994, just got the DVD for Christmas in 2004. Threesome is nearly eleven years old but you won't be able to see that by watching it. It's just as much fun now as it was then. It's a movie like a fine wine...it won't age no matter how old it gets. But be warned. This film is not for prudes who can't see beyond the " sex talk ". Alex, Stu and Eddy do get down and dirty at times but sex is not the only element this film has to offer. Once you expand your mind and strip Threesome of all the ... Read More
