| Posted by: blankpage at January 13, 2004, 9:56 pm | | Topic: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion Forum: JoBlo | | I saw this movie in March, and instantly fell in lurve with it. It is possibly my biggest guilty pleasure. It's so '80s! I love that! It's so silly and cute, too. Just a great, fun movie! | | Static Link |
| Posted by: thompsoncory at January 13, 2004, 6:50 pm | | Topic: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion Forum: JoBlo | | I loved this movie! It was so clever and funny and both of the actresses are a riot. The dialogue is gonna become classic someday, for the script is very funny and well-written. Here are some other lines I remembered from the top of my head: Michele: Didn't he die? Michelelaughs) Oh, I just get so happy when they finally let her shop! Romy: I invented Post-Its! 9.5/10 (A+) | | Static Link |
| Posted by: urbanlegend23 at January 13, 2004, 7:13 am | | Topic: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion Forum: JoBlo | | A very enjoyable comedy, with Mira and Lisa making a nice team. I dug their relationship and think it was nicely written and acted, they pulled off the chemistry. My particular favourite part was when Romy and Michelle got the car and were going on and it kept stopping..."SHIT!" dadadada "SHIT!" dadadada "SHIT!" That said, didn't find the movie very memorable and I don't think it holds up as well on second viewing...but I 'll need to give it a third to finalise my grade. Grade: 7/10 | | Static Link |

Oh I know, we're just being honest! "Sorry, not you, no, I was trying to scare your little boy!" God, I just love this film! An online buddy of mine and I quote it a lot (since it has such awesome quotes), so it made me want to see it again since I haven't seen it in awhile. So, I grabbed my ol' VHS copy and popped it in on Saturday. This is just such a hilarious and clever film! A lot of people compare it to a female version of Dumb & Dumber, but it's certainly smarter and much better than that annoying and immature movie. I don't know if this movie could be more quotable. There's so many great lines. Michele: Oh my God, you did it! Romy: Yeah, I did. Michele: What did you have to do? Romy: I had to give everyone in the service department hand jobs. Michele: Well, while you were doing that, I made us a tape of all the nostalgic songs from high schoo... | | Read Entire Entry |

You did a very nice job Sad Man, I doubt I could have done better. Mine probably would have blew. It's much easier to like someone else's review better than your own, at least for me it is. I'm really critical of my work, and I'm hardly ever satisfied with it. I need to take some writing lessons, and I definitely need an editor. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: Mike at June 13, 2003, 2:32 pm | | Topic: Romy and Michele's High School Reunion Forum: JoBlo | | This is my all time favorite comedy. It's very funny and original, with a great 80's soundtrack. All of my family and friends know this movie by name, and will never forget it, because I've seen it SEVERAL times and have made them all watch it over and over again as well. My whole family really enjoyed it, and all of my friends did too. A GREAT comedy that I'll never forget! Mira Sorvino and Lisa Kudrow shine in what is their best performances in my opinion. I'll always remember them for this movie. My only little complaint is that the dream sequence gets boring and a tad sickening after multiple viewings. The rest is practically flawless though. Grade: 10/10 or A+ (I know a lot of people won't think it deserves this high of a rating, but it's just my "personal" favorite. I have a lot of memories of watching this movie and it just grew to be my favorite comedy.) | | Static Link |

It's an underrated flick that not many know about it. Most people think it's stupid and "inmature", but I find this movie to be very clever and funny. I was very surprised of how much I liked this, I even bought the DVD. The same thing happened to me with Legally Blonde (8/10 or B+). Which I also really enjoyed. Writing is the key in this comedy. The script is very witty and clever. There are lots of great dialogue between Romy and Michele. There a lot of one liners that you can quote. Like ..."I hope your babys look like monkeys"... Or ..."Who lost their virginity first?".../..."Oh big wow! With you cousin Barry, I wouldn't brag about it"...And I just loved every time they said "Me too!". Like I said, the writing was essential in this comedy. You may think its stupid but I laughed my ass of anywa... | | Read Entire Entry |
