It's been done before, and done before better. A year ago The Girl Next
Door had most of the same concepts, themes and lessons. Studious boy
meets wild girl, boy breaks the rules for the first time, girl
straitens her life for the first time, they fall in love, and then
what? However, the amateur writer (McCormack) should have remembered to
add a climax, or even a third act. It was one of those movies that just
seemed to be, "Is this the conclusion?" Debuting in his first American
film, said UK actor Julian Moris, gave a realistic, well done
performance. Whirly Girl Monet Mazur is beautiful; unfortunately, less
could be said about her acting. Profanity and nudity may be an issue
for ratings, there is mild nudity during the sex scenes and what kind
of language would you expect from 18-year-old boys? [ show more ]
Nothing bad could be said about the image or audio quality. Then again,
nothing new in the world of aesthetics was brought to the picture
either, nor should have been. It's a typical 'on location' picture. The
musical score is mostly combined with a mix of pop and rock hits,
appropriate for the scenes but soon to be outdated.
Don't get the wrong impression I did enjoy the picture. It was as good
as average for its genre and worth seeing once. It repeats some cut and
paste storyline; however, Whirly Girl is cute, funny, and entertaining
in its own. The scenes at the boarding school with the horny teenage
boys are hilarious and very tangible for any young adult male. This
picture serves the appetite of its young adult (17-25) target audience.
