Starring Tricia Vessey, Gaby Hoffmann, Bonnie Root, Mia Farrow, Ryan O'Neal, and Peter Bogdanovich

The New York Times Dana Stevens
Its frank good humor stands in sharp contrast with the strange combination of timidity and exploitiveness of more widely distributed recent teenage comedies.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Manohla Dargis
Like oversolicitous lovers, the filmmakers are hung up on foreplay -- and not enough old-fashioned teenage raunch.
Read Full Review >Village Voice Amy Taubin
Refreshingly direct and even courageous in its confrontation of female pleasure -- specifically orgasms and masturbation, the staple of teen-boy comedies, but hitherto off-limits for girls.
Read Full Review >New York Post Lou Lumenick
Too crude for serious audiences and too serious to be good exploitation, Coming Soon is a teen sex comedy that's predictably getting a token theatrical release prior to its imminent debut on home video.
TV Guide Editor
Just because it was written and directed by a woman doesn't mean the title isn't exactly the vulgar double entendre you think.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas
It's amazing how boring endless talk about more and better orgasms can become.

The only thing redeeming about this movie was the song during the scene in which the two girls are in a bedroom composing a personal ad for the Village Voice. I assume it's called "Sex", but it's not credited at the end of the film. Strange. I'd buy this artist's CDs in a heartbeat, if I only knew his name. But the movie is horrible.
fr0sty gave it a 7:
Well, the only other person to vote was obviously looking for some nudity and raunchy sex scenes. In the midst of that mindless search, he missed a great, though predictable, script, some well played performances by two of the three leads (Tricia just lacked any connection to her character), and incedible cinematography. My favorite shot of the whole film is the close-up on the iguana, which as the lizard turns away, changes focus to Tricia's character sitting on her bed playing with her animals. This movie was definately a triumph of a film, spinning the web on chicks instead of guys. Funny how girls getting naked and having on screen sex scenes warrants an R, but girls fully dressed TALKING about sex originally garnered an NC-17...
