D.E.B.S.

DEBS is a romp, no wonder it is being made into a studio feature film. I have seen it at 3 festivals now and it's still funny. My new favorite director is Angela Robinson. She rocks. Can't wait for the DVD which will be out in November.

This well written short is extremely entertaining. A humorous campy sendoff of bad girl stereotypes and action movies/tv had me laughing. The assistance of Power Up gave this indie unexpected top notch production values. Find a chance to see this if you can. It appears the director has sold it and a hollywood version based on the idea will be out. Take the time to see this original idea from an up and coming director.

i think this may be the best movie I have ever seen. I can't believe that I laughed from the credits to the end. What a refreshing film. So sexy and gay. This film was romantic and I fell hard for lucy diamond. She really takes charge and leads this adventure. gay wm will feel empowered by the debs attitudes about life. i brought my friends over to see debs and the girls laughed a lot the two boys laughed even harder. I love a lot of films but this one is tops. jordannna brewster is captivating, sara foster is so cute.Young girls will really identify with the debs. Action, compelling and fun are the best way to describe watching debs

When watching the splendid D.E.B.S. (2004-also reviewed) for the first time a few years ago,I tried to find the original short film it was based on,but kept hitting dead-ends. Watching the film again today,I got lucky and stumbled on the short,which led to me seeing D.E.B.S. first mission.

View on the short:

High-kicking with panning shots over exam papers written in 3D lettering, writer/director Angela Robinson & cinematographer Kristian Bernier present a compact version of what was to come with the feature film, as the Pop-Art High School-wearing spies slam into rapid-fire whip-pans. Spying for only 7 minutes (and 3 minutes of credits!) the screenplay by Angela Robinson keeps the mission at a surface level, which whilst keeping the pace snappy, does not go into the character depth that the feature would take D.E.B.S. in.

I liked it because it was silly and did not focus on sex and the women involved were attractive and not the stereotypical butch overweight lesbians. I also like that the movie is not to heavy on the lesbian part of it, it is lesbian light. It is entertaining but if you try to take it seriously thinking that it is anything but a fun light movie, then you will be disappointed and not get it. It is over the top much like the Charlie's Angels movie. The humor in it is obvious but playful and I enjoy a movie that does not take itself seriously. Overall it was a good movie that is nice for an evening at home where you just want to escape for a while.
