    I could probably write paragraphs about this but smarter people than me have done that already and I need to see this two or three more times before I can be an intellectual about it.

    Appreciated that Demi Moore is frequently dressed in backless outfits for the first half or so of the film (when she's not in spandex). Feels like an interesting harbinger of what's going to happen to her spine about halfway through. This isn't a spoiler if you've seen the poster for the movie.

    A very disappointing AMC Screen Unseen. A tragically terrible script.

    Martin-Green and Morales are excellent, but even the greatest actors of all time couldn't pull a script like this out of the gutter. I know that's true because they literally had Morgan Freeman and Ed Harris in this! And it still sucked!

    I just want a movie where the main character is a lesbian at the beginning of the movie and is still a lesbian at the end of the movie, instead of going off to college with her ponytailed farmhand boyfriend named Chad who made her realize she wants "dick sex" (actual quote from the movie!??!?). This could've been one of the all-time greatest lesbian comedies of all time. We'd finally get to watch something other than But I'm a Cheerleader. …

    There wasn't a minute that I wasn't entertained and amazed. Mouth fell open at the very end. I understand it won't be everyone's thing but I'm simply astonished. Feels like something that would've gotten a 20 minute standing ovation from Ebert.
