Product: Sorority Boys (2002)
Rating: 1.0
Dim witted mess
The makers of this drivel owe me $8.75. That's the money (and two hours) I wasted on Sorority Boys after reading a positive review of the movie. No, I wasn't expecting "The Age of Innocence" from this film, but there have been some "guys in drag" classics over the years and I thought maybe this might be fun. This movie is incredibly bad, I don't know where to begin. It's embarrassingly bad. Frankly, it's downright STUPID.This is a Hollywood movie, so it must have had a decent budget. But being creative with money was obviously beyond the director and producers' grasp. The three actors in drag are so badly made up with cheap wigs and unbelievable costumes that you'd have to be a complete imbecile to think that they were actually women!!! I've seen community theaters do a better job than this. And all the characters in this movie believe that they are women; are they blind! Is it a star trek time flux! After all, the movie does take place at a college as opposed to an insane assylum.OK, so realism isn't one of this movie's fortes! I'm still flabbergasted that ladies who have commented on this movie didn't find the cheap comic exploitation of women (wet tee shirts, ugly girls referred to as dogs, girls with facial hair etc. etc.) in the film appalling!It's equally distressing to have to sit through the film's sleazy working of an audience's assumed homophobia. I wonder how many viewers stayed to the end of the credits for the big surprise cannibalism scene!!!!. Funny! No. Stupid! Yes!This movie might have made a pleasant diversion with a better script and a better director. There's nothing wrong with the premise. The talented actors who play the lead roles must have had some inkling of how degrading the entire movie really is.What's really depressing, is that many of our teenagers in the USA actually find this movie a worthwhile entertainment.Anyone with a brain, avoid this at all costs!
