Movie Reviews of Girls Will Be Girls
Movie Review: Girls will Be Girls - Always and Forever!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
The story is about a young starlet who moves to LA and ends up rooming with a washed up alcoholic has been diva who may or may not have somehow driven her mother to suicide almost 25 years ago! Throw in another roommate who is single and barren, and searching for a doctor who performed a ... procedure on her. Oh yeah! And all female parts are played by men in drag! I was shocked I loved the hell out of this movie considering it was made in someone's house and starred 3 drag queens. I am not a huge fan of the female illusionist, but here it worked to broaden out the already broad comedy! Seriously picture a real woman after being asked if she's ever had an abortion saying "Honey! I've had more kids ripped out of me than a burning ORPHANAGE!" No, only a man in a frock could deliver that and make you giggle. And giggle and laugh is exactly what I did in this whole film!
It's a hoot! If you like your comedy broad and crass this is your movie! And the special features are not too bad either! You get animated menus with the cast, deleted scenes, a trailer, and a pretty entertaining commentary from the director and cast. IT'S A SPECIMERCIAL! IT'S HUGE!
Movie Review: This is movie is a total "Drag" you will never forget!

What can I say about "Girls will be girls"? It is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. My friends and I continue to crack up each time we watch it, even my 17 year old niece couldn't stop laughing! Don't expect to see a "To Wong Foo" type movie about drag queens going to Hollywood, because these are guys playing women who are already there. The truth be told, there are no women in the entire movie. Even the extras and the photos of covers of magazines are all men. Yes it a bit raunchy and very campy, but it is a side splitting ride to the end. I wouldn't recommend children to watch, although it is a very colorful film. It is also a film that needs to be listened to, as it is full of one-liners and puns. Yes, even 'straight' people will get a kick out of this film. A very entertaining romp, even the audio commentary(DVD only) is fun to listen too. So pop the corn, pour the matini's and invite your 'girlfreinds' over for a night of gutbusting hilarity as Evie, Coco, and new roomie Varla, take Hollywood by storm, or at least, try to.
Movie Review: If you don't love this movie, you're a real drag...
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay I have to admit when I saw this DVD on the rental rack I passed on it over and over. BIG mistake, luckily a friend rented it and got me to watch it. The menu for the DVD was so funny and well thought out I quickly became interested. I still had no idea what I was in for. This film is shockingly funny thanks mostly to the three talented leads. Who would have thought that a film titled "Girls will be Girls" would ever be on my favorites list. You have to admit the title is a little bland and easy to ignore. Maybe that's why it wasn't that successful on the big screen. Oh well this superb feature presentation is sure to gain cult status and people will see it sooner or later based on that. This is a 5 star comedy and it will be a cult classic in less than 5 years. I bought the DVD after that night and I've watched it since then. You'll love it ..if you get the joke.Movie Review: Unexpected Laugh Riot
Summary: 5 Stars
Sometimes, buying or renting an independent film can be a little risky, so I did not expect much from a low-budget movie starring three drag queens. While the popcorn popped, I started to realize that this movie was going to be one to remember.The interactive menus are introduced with humorous dialogue between four of the stars and there are hidden comedy snippets that can be found (on three menus) with a few creative arrow key combinations.
The movie's plot is not entirely believable, but the drag queens deliver some punchlines with both comedic effervescence and excellent timing that, well, only drag queens can.
I am still not a drag fan, but after watching this movie several times (with comentary and subtitles on for variety), I can say that this movie is definitely one for most video/DVD collections. Go buy it now.
Movie Review: delightfully irreverant
Summary: 5 Stars
Sure it was quirky and campy... and even more rude than SOUTH PARK... but it had heart.I've seen Jack Plotnick in small character roles for many years, so it was really nice to see him in a leading role. Clinton Leupp (who pretty much stole the show in that bathroom scene from the movie TRICK) also shines brightly in this movie! He's beautiful as a woman and in addition to being hilarious, he knows how to tug at the heartstrings. Jeffery Roberson was like the cherry on top of the sundae! Even for being so physically large, he has a vulnerable quality that works so well for his character.
I highly recommend this movie for fans of this genre. Watch it with a group of friends and a bottle of wine (or a can of Cheez-Whiz)!
