    This movie would have been a lot better with nudity! Otherwise, it was great to drink to.

    Get ready folks as we step once more into a formula feel-good chick flick. Somehow though, Coyote Ugly is more painful to watch than any before it. If you're a guy, most likely your girlfriend will ask you to watch this, please, say no. I can't can't describe how tedious I found this, there are so many cringe-worthy moments I can't possibly begin to go into them here. To be fair this film isn't aimed at me, and there were some attractive females as well, so it gets 1 mark. I'm off to watch Predator and feel manly again. Expand

    I've been to the real CU bar in NYC, and this movie made that bar look even better. I hope to someday meet Cammie, the russian tease.

    The only thing that looks even remotely interesting is the bar - if you haven't seen it before. otherwise - a shallow, boring, unrealistic and unfunny piece of crap. i can't believe i actually wasted my money for a cinema ticket to go see this.

    Ok, so it doesn't say a lot plot wise, but Coyote Ugly makes for an interesting review on femanist issues. Is Lil the bar owner really a slave to this sex selling bar, or is she making something of her life by trading on the desires of men? Is this true of Zoe to a similar degree, leaving the bar to use the money she made to turn herself into a lawyer? Yes, the songs are alright, your attention held by the changes in the life of this small town girl. Don't forget, they're making a point here too, girls you can come out of your small towns, stop serving pizza and serve beer with a swivel of your hips instead. A mixture of values if you think about this film, and it's giving me something to review for college so I'm giving it a 9 cos it's better than watching Casablanca again! Expand

    The film's interesting. The story behind the bar with musicians who manage to make a living one way or another. Half of the movie is probably covered in booze and bras, but that's how most people see it. There are some lessons to be learned, I take that back... a few lessons here. It's worth a rent, just not a buy.

    I had the misfortune of believing the movie would improve as it neared the end. I was wrong.

    Why did Bruckheimer bother making it, and why did I bother seeing it?

    Thought this movie would be another T&A movie when I was dragged to it by my younger brother. However, I was pleasetanly surprised, so much so that I saw it twice in 3 days!! For me, the highlight of this movie was Adam Garcia, who played the main character's Aussie love interest. He played the part with the right amount of cuteness, sexiness and vunerablity. All-in-all 2 thumbs up for Coyote Ugly! Expand

    Absolute and utter mix of both bile and vomitus, an infinite bollox of stupidity, a useless, endless, hopeless mass of posing drunken prostitutes, signifying nothing.

    Coyote Ugly is one of those movies that hides behind its feel good ending. The fact that everyone ends up happy at the end doesn't mean that the film isn't a sexist, overly long, overly shmaltzy piece of terrible cinema. Sure there may be some who consider the film a piece of female empowerment cinema (Zack Snyder probably) but in the real world its just a story about a girl who gets pushed into a corner and uses her 'feminine' ways to get herself out. The romance between Perabo and Garcia is empty as the two have no chemistry and the scripting is terrible. Its beginning to end a terrible film that I advise you to avoid. Unlike Sucker Punch this piece of female empowerment doesn't have some visually stunning fight scenes to fall back on, just a tepid love story and some uninspired music choices. Expand

    Plays out like a raunchy episode of "Felicity."
  2. Another piece of phony uplift from producer Jerry Bruckheimer.
  3. Welcome to the brave new world of slut-chic cosmetic feminism.
