initial expectations

(5) I was counting the days till I could see this movie…not because I'm a big fan of bartending, or alcohol for that matter, but because the movie looked like a lot of fun. And I wanted to see Piper Perabo in action. I'd heard a lot of good stuff about her.

(4) Sex sells right? A tease of a trailer plus some hot looking women... ummm...hey, I'm a guy!

pace

(5) There was never a dull moment. I didn't take a break from my emotional roller coaster. One minute I'm crying (I started bawling during the first five minutes, no joke), the next, I'm howling…just like a real coyote. Really.

(5) On-the-go type pacing to match the hype of the Coyote Ugly ladies. Slow parts are few, if any. Or maybe I was just too engrossed in Piper.

plot/story

(3) The plot has been done countless times before and it's just as predictable as the rest of 'em. But I still enjoyed watching it unfold and pretending that I didn't know what was going to happen next.

(4) This isn't really about hot sexy women. It's more a love story. I have to say that the romance genre is pretty predictable...boy meets girl type thing. But, it has some nice touches, interspersed with some hype scenes that make it stand out from other romantic stories.

cast/acting

(5) The girls did an excellent job acting like they were hot and sexy…maybe because they're really hot and sexy. I think Tyra Banks did the least amount of acting…and had the least amount of lines. But hey, she looked good. John Goodman and Adam Garcia weren't too shabby, either.

(5) Hot, sexy, and convincing. And the main thing that counts in this genre... chemistry between the lead actors. Piper is especially stunning (in more ways than one), showing why she was casted out of thousands vying for the lead, and why she was Summa Cum Laude from her University where she studied her trade.

good stuff

(5) Let's see what we got here. 5 hot girls skimpily dressed, dancing wet on a bar to pumping music in front of a hyped-up crowd. If that's not good enough stuff for ya, I don't know what is…unless, of course, you're the jealous type and you can't stand your boyfriend gawking at 5 hot girls skimpily dressed, dancing wet on a bar to pumping music in front of a hyped-up crowd. In that case, skip this movie.

(4) 5 sexy vixens, which includes the famous Tyra Banks, and rising star Piper Perabo, who had my eyes glued on to her the whole time! Add a ruckus of a party in the bar, and you have the perfect mix. However, a PG-13 rating, and you get more tease then Gs (G-strings that is).

overall

(5) This movie had it all: excitement, drama, and pure entertainment. I give it a high 5!

(4) The only reason this isn't a 5 is because the trailers made it seem more sexy than it really is. The tease worked, BUT, if you're gonna tease me, you better finish it off. An R rating would have been nice...hehehe... For a love story, this is pretty entertaining.
