Willy/Milly

My friends and I used to go to our local video store before it got rid of its VHS, back in the day and we'd rent piles of video's always making sure that we only rented things that we hadn't seen and looked strange. Something special was in a bright pink box with a little doodle of a girl looking down her pants in shock and we knew right away that we had to rent it.

This is not by any means one of those movies which will one day explode in popularity, but when my friends and I watched it, we couldn't believe what we were seeing it had us rolling on the floor laughing and we probably watched it about six times in one weekend because it amused us so much. If you love movies that really are quite stupid but in a fun guilty pleasure sort of way this is a definitely a movie for you, plus tiny Seth green is hilarious.

This is one of those films i just have to watch again every now and then, because i like it, and because it's damn funny. It tells the story of a girl who wants to be a boy, and by magical means, her wish is granted. Some scenes had me rolling on the floor laughing.

This film, besides being a great movie, also deals with some important teen issues in a very funny way, which i thought was great.

One of my favorite feel good movies!

10/10

found an unopened copy of this in a garage sale and it was such an unassuming movie that i fell in love with it after first viewing. mainly cause i related to it so much. I'm not lesbian, but i do want equal treatment.

this movie addressed that issue without being too heavy. and you cant help but cringe at the development of the storyline, not because its awful, but because the acting was so real.

it didn't have popular actors, except for john glover, who was hilarious, i might say. but the mom was really funny too.

it also reminded me a bit of revenge of the nerds.

be prepared for an unusual plotted, lines bordering cheesy, not-for-intellectuals type of movie, and you'll like this one.

Very funny lost gem from my youth. I remember seeing this when it came onto TV. I have seen it twice and then forgot all about it for years. Thought about it yesterday and set upon the task of figuring out it's title. Hooray , I found it! I highly recommend this if you come across it in one of it's three titles. Milly's best friend's reaction to her newly grown penis is hilarious.Good family comedy despite somewhat "blue" moments. Yes, the premise is a little far fetched but come on, it's a comedy aimed at young adults. Would buy in a heartbeat when it get's on DVD (hint hint). Seriously, why isn't this on DVD yet? I see on here far less worthy films made by the director and producers re-released.

" Boys have got it made ", or so reckons ' Willy Milly's ' Milly Niceman ( Pamela Segall ), a budding young astronomer whose life is dramatically changed thanks to an ancient spell and a rare solar eclipse. For Milly's deepest darkest desire is granted, enabling her to experience life as a boy and with all the correct equipment to do it! But Milly soon discovers that being ' Willy ' doesn't neccesarily mean that life gets any easier, especially when she comes up against the high school bully!

Based on a story by Alan Friedman, Paul Schneider's offbeat ' Willy Milly ' is a truly hilarious fantasy comedy, one of those rare movies that can be enjoyed time and time again. Sharply scripted and impeccably acted, Segall delights in the lead role and she is offered terrific support by the likes of Patty Duke and John Glover as the Niceman parents and the lovely Mary Tanner as her dumbfounded best friend Stephanie.
