zif ofoz I actually thought the actress that played Amanda was a guy in some kinda cheap drag!Then I discover it is actually a girl!!!So there you have the most interesting element in this dumb movie - a girl playing a guy that became a girl. Didn't Julie Andrews do this decades ago? You can spend better time looking up the answer to my question above than watching this movie - which - by the way - is totally devoid of any acting skills!I'm actually sorry I watched it!
jcinsov I pride myself on being open to new directors and film houses. This seemed interesting, so I gave it a shot. From the very first scene, one can feel that undefinable awkwardness of bad acting. The dialog from the first scene was unbelievable. Everyone spoke like they were high school kids. I really regret this movie. I think the worst sin this movie made was the message. I won't say what that message was but when you get the the end of this flick you will see exactly what I am talking about.If the director ever reads these forums this is what I would like to say to him- you can't make EVERYONE be a stereotype or off the wall impossible character or it won't work. Not everyone has to be (or can be) stifler.
ichocolat Is it normal for many to equate everything that films that do not have big budgets to be lesser of quality than the blockbusters? It is saddening because even with all the hypes, not all big budgets films are good. Take Iron Man for example; with the brouhaha and gimmicks, the film failed to achieve its expectations.I personally liked this film. But if it is not for the silly ending, I'd have recommended it to my friends.The underlying concept of loving unconditionally is portrayed here, which most of us take for granted. We love somebody because the person fits our requirements, but what if it were not the case? All in all, a good watch for me.
Justin McGill First off.. I gave this film a "6".. because.. it actually from the TRAILER you'd suspect.. takes the idea of the rom-com and marks some new.. and I was actually think.. this would be a FIRST..Unlike say "The Crying Game" which the big twist is that she was a He.. was it seemed to be what if a straight guy found out the hot chick he was dating.. was also, once, a he. So.. there'd be a BIT more weight than the traditional fluff of the rom-com. And we get that.. for a little bit.. until the last 15 minutes of the movie just COMPLETELY cops out and turns the entire film that was into just so much more fluff.Now.. I'm STRAIGHT.. so I don't care about the big twist.. but it just seemed like the twist for the sake of the twist, and to pad the running time a few minutes longer. What could have been something of a film more on the level akin to Kevin Smith's "Chasing Amy".. turns into a movie Sandra Bullock threw to the bottom of the pile (not that you could blame her really).Now.. the performances were, sadly, very strictly amateur theater steakhouse.. what MIGHT have saved the movie from a dollar rental (or more likely a SHAMED 3 AM viewing on some cool hipster wanna be touting this as "independent" film)... It's just not. What NERVE and courage the film mustered up in the first bit is completely deflated by the end.The writing is kind of weak.. and I can forgive that all.. if you have something to say.. in fact, I could have forgiven this film if it had STUCK to its guns.. but at the end of the day, it wasn't that movie.. it was just some fluffy rom-com masquerading as something important.. using issues that.. I think may be even more prevalent in society as medical technology develops.. this actually seemed a GOOD time to throw in stories about acceptance.. and love.. (but like I said.. the last bit of the movie just takes a giant SPIT all over it).It's really unfortunate too.. Like I said.. I'd give the movie a rent in the dollar rental section, and recommend it.. but the point when they FINALLY reconcile? just TURN IT OFF.. imagine THAT as the ending.. and it would have been a fine enough movie. But.. keep watching and you will definitely understand my point of view on the film.
