Bar Girls

How do you like to see the same jokes over and over again? It's not funny and the characters all talk with the same tone. It also makes lesbians seem very promiscuous which is not true for all of us. I don't think the characters are really representative of lesbians. I'd go for "Better than Chocolate" or "Gia" for a movie that portrays real human feelings and don't look like they are acting.

This is a very likeable movie about some lesbians looking for love, especially the main character, who thinks she might have finally found someone long lasting -- if she doesn't mess it up somehow. I would have liked it better if the acting and writing wasn't so amateurish at times; the likeability of the characters and (for some) the subject matter does make it worth watching. Besides, sometimes the unpolished and well tad bit bad quality of the film is unintentionally amusing. One question: why is the most sexy scene not one when one of the lesbians who actually like each other are together? If you like this, I suggest "The Incredibly True Story of Two Girls in Love," and "Desert Hearts."

Every so often in a movie you come across a characterization that goes beyond the theme and text of the movie itself and provides a portrayal of a character that could be taken as a whole and used as the basis for a separate movie. Such is the character of J.R. portrayed by Camilla Griggs which, surprisingly, is rarely commented upon by reviewers of this movie. Too often she is seen only in contrast with Loretta's feelings and as the antagonist but her character, her personality, what she's looking for and how she goes about it and about meeting her needs is unusual and she could be viewed separately and appreciated. My suggestion is to watch the movie through once and then watch it a second time, paying particular attention to the character of J.R., to how she relates to her newly come by job, her newly come by girlfriend and the others in her life including Loretta. I'm amazed that I haven't seen Camilla Griggs in anything else because she's certainly a talent.

Terrible terrible terrible film.

The acting was atrocious.

The storyline was weak. The subplots were just plain...bad.

The lovescenes were boring.

The characters were unbelievable.

The sets were unrealistic and ugly.

The music was horrible.

The inter spliced "comic" was possibly the most interesting part.

Good film to watch if you want to die of boredom.

Any film starring a cowboy hat wearing lesbian police officer with the hairdo of a weather presenter in cowboy boots playing basketball called JR should be used as an alternative to corporal punishment.

I think this is possibly the worst film that I have ever seen.

Loretta (Nancy Allison Wolfe) is a successful lesbian writer of cartoons with problems in her romantic life with Annie (Lisa Parker). She is a habitué of a lesbian bar. One day she meets Rachel (Liza D'Agostino) and they start a new life together. When J.R. (Camila Griggs) starts flirting with Rachel, all the insecurity of Loretta rises in a jealousy situation.

This romance in a lesbian environment is a movie for a very specific audience. This movie seems to be too much stereotyped, but lesbians, fans of soap opera or simply a viewer curious of a lesbian movie may not be completely disappointed and may have some fun. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Clube de Garotas" ("Girls'Club")
