Not exactly original, but...

Rating: Null/10 (16 January 2002)

Fine, there's absolutely no originality in the sweet-girl-meets-cute-guy story, so do not expect any surprises from this movie: it is predictable and you can see exactly where and how the story is going to end. There's no great acting either: Perabo is OK playing the small town girl having a hard time trying life in New York City, and Garcia's Aussie accent is funny (if not very convincing). Well, so far, nothing really exciting about Coyote Ugly... but WAIT A MINUTE! The girls dancing at the bar, the crowd cheering, the music! Wow, it makes you feel like being there! Those people can party! I say if you are of legal age for drinking, go get this movie!!! And then, when you think it can't get any better, John Goodman dances on the counter! Come on, see it and have some fun.
