***Cruising Bar 2*** is a 2008 Canadian comedy film, directed by [Robert Ménard](/source/Robert_M%C3%A9nard_(director)) and [Michel Côté](/source/Michel_C%C3%B4t%C3%A9_(actor)).[1] A sequel to the 1989 film *[Cruising Bar](/source/Cruising_Bar)*, the film stars Côté as the same four separate characters he played in the original film, now dealing with much more middle-aged sexual and relationship issues.[2]

Gérard's wife Gertrude ([Véronique Le Flaguais](/source/V%C3%A9ronique_Le_Flaguais)) has finally had enough of his constant infidelity, and is filing for divorce; Patrice is in a downward spiral after his girlfriend breaks up with him; Jean-Jacques is struggling with [erectile dysfunction](/source/Erectile_dysfunction) issues which have led his psychiatrist to suggest that he might actually be [gay](/source/Gay); Serge, perennially unlucky in love, tries [Internet dating](/source/Internet_dating) which may finally change his life for the better.[3]

The film's cast also includes Marie-France Duquette, Chantal Dauphinais, [Lise Roy](/source/Lise_Roy) and Hélène Major.
