I hate to say it, but I've been suckered a few times into buying Lesbian "R-rated" films. These flicks are sadly lacking in the nudity department, let alone the sexual arena. I guess if you were a Lesbian and just wanted to see Lesbians communicate, well then, maybe these flicks might just be for you. I refuse to by another "R-rated" movie. The "R" just tells me that the makers of these films were more concerned about Box Office receipts than actually making a provocative movie. From now on it's NC-17 baby. Lets hope more are produced in the future. "Lust,Caution" [NC-17] by the way, was an excellent film!

well then you haven't seen this!!! I saw this in a crowded art theater with quite a few other lesbians present. At one point the two main characters begin a dialogue about how they love each other. Trite enough in itself. Then one says to the other, "Well actually I don't always love you in fact sometimes I don't even like you." When finally my film going companion had enough and yelled out, "Well, I hate you both!" bringing the house down in a roar of laughter. She pretty much summed up my feeling. I hate this film. If you like bad movies and like to laugh at how stupid everyone can be then definitely watch this. Although it lacks the wonderful camp of showgirls. Which is another terrible film but at least its good-bad ya know? For a decent lesbian film When Night is Falling comes to mind or Bound for that matter.

"Bar Girls" is an enjoyable little romantic comedy about an obsessive, incredibly funny cartoonist, Loretta, who is continually looking for that perfect significant other. When she actually finds her, she thinks it's too perfect and all her neurotic, but hilarious, self-sabotage tendencies kick in. Clever dialogue between Loretta and her best friend, tension-filled moments between Loretta and the film's stereotypical "bad girl", as well as tender moments of self-awareness make up for the film's obviously lacking depth. The intermittent scenes of Loretta's cartoon and the cartoon's heroine are hilarious! In all, "Bar Girls" is kinda cheesy, but an enjoyable 90-minutes nonetheless.
February 11, 2005I had thought about buying this DVD for a long time then it appeared on The Movie Channel, so I could see it for free. I almost couldn't stand to watch it even then. The acting is terrible and the situations between the women are even worse. I don't know why any of these characters would be considered attractive to anyone. If this is what is being used to represent lesbian culture, we're in worse shape than ever. Don't buy this. In fact, don't watch it.....even for free. Too bad I couldn't give it zero stars.

what happened to the gorgeous, husky-voiced, luscious, deliciously dykey Camila Griggs who plays the agressive cop J.R. Now, she is hot. My "ultimate dream girl" fantasy to quote her character in the movie.You could cast her as the Xena uber in any of those fan inspired novels with no leap of imagination whatsoever. Someone should've starred her in her own lesbian indie. The woman has got to have a following. It was great to see a strong, totally believable (and very attractive) amazon gay woman portrayed for a change.
