Summary: I Have Always Loved This Movie
Review: Bad Girls is my all-time favorite movie. Okay, some of the plots are a tiny bit lame, but what can you expect from a Western? I find this movie to be a fresh look at Western style movies, with strong females using any and every card they have to do what they want. It also has a cast of amazing actors, most that are getting more successful with time. If you like action-packed movies and powerful women, buy this movie!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Introducing the Chicks-ploitation Flick
Review: Everyone knows about the Blacks-ploitation films of the Seventies. Well, this is the same rot but exploiting the chick flick genre. How could such wonderful actresses demean themselves by appearing in this terribly written, terribly directed film? Don't be fooled into thinking it's anything close to a strong woman film--there's gratuitous violence, rape, women being humiliated, one scene contrived just to show us Drew topless. None of the characters had any depth. The storyline itself made no sense. If you have a brain, you will kick yourself for watching this. If you want to give someone a lobotomy, force them to watch this

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bad Girls
Review: I am a western lover and BAD GIRLS is one of my favorite movies. I have never seen anything like it since westerns usually are shown from the male perspective. It's about time we get a great female western, especially told from the perspective of prostitutes.

Summary: Brillent movie, too bad not on DVD
Review: I have always loved this movie. It has great action in it and is based in the old west; what more could you want. Since I am a huge western fan and live close to the badlands, I absolutely love how it captures how the old west was. If you love westerns this is one for you. For once the girls get the leading roles in a western.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great movie!
Review: I really liked this movie! You don't often come across western movies where women are the heroes but this one really has some powerful, strong and brave women. Drew is gorgeous as usual! Anyone who likes action and girl power will like it!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bad is the operative word: Jonathan Kaplan's Bad Girls
Review: Is this country so starved for a decent western that we have to sit through this steaming cow patty to find it? In the first few minutes, four prostitutes leave town in a frenzy after one of them kills another's client in hooker defense. I don't have any character names, because this all happens in the first ten minutes without any background to who the characters are or their relationships to each other.

The women escape and go for a pie in the sky dream of running a lumber mill in Oregon. Enter James Russo, Madeleine Stowe's former beau and current outlaw. He takes all of Stowe's hard earned money. She works hard for her money...so hard for it, honey... Dermot Mulroney of the "Young Guns" series happens by to flirt with the ladies while seeking his own revenge. The rest of the film consists of at least three of our five heroes getting capture and disappearing, then the others riding to rescue them. Three times...they shouldn't have quit their night jobs.

The four leads are pretty and beautiful and buxom and nothing like the Old West's real soiled doves. The quartet could have stepped off a Ralph Lauren fashion runway. For a more realistic portrayal, try either "Unforgiven" or stupidly titled "The Wicked Wicked West" with Kelly McGillis and Brenda Fricker.

You know the routine in this kind of film, the bad guys lose, the good girls (or is it bad girls?) win. Director Kaplan apes the late great Sam Peckinpah, throwing in slow motion scenes. Unlike Sam, Kaplan uses slow motion for no motivation or reason, just to do it.

Except for Mulroney and James LeGros, all the men here are pigs who are just holding these poor women down. A great feminist statement that is ironic in a film that dumped its first female director in favor of Kaplan, who decides we cannot get through the film without a couple of glimpses of Drew Barrymore topless. Girl power!

This is not a good western, your first clue is the five different writers listed in the opening credits. All involved have done better, and you would be better off checking those out instead. "Bad Girls" are bad in more ways than one.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: OMG .....THIS WAS SOOOOOOO NOT GOOD
Review: One of the worst movies ever made. Bad script, bad acting. A horrible waste of talent of each and every one of the actresses.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Garry Hixon on Drew Barrymore
Review: This is Garry Hixon with Mirror Vision Inc. again and I thought Miss Barrymore was wonderful in Bad Girls, the line where she says PIGS! is funny, this is a good movie, its been years since I seen it. It is weird that I like Drew so much and she is so big, an exercise in futility I guess, Mary Stuart Masterson, Andie Mcdowel and Madeline stowel are also in this one, obviosly a mirror image of young guns, (...)style, at the end they ride off into the sunset , sidesaddle of course, Drewli is her amazing self in this one, a cherry chocolate in steven spielbergs banana cream pie, she is a sequin cherry creme in our silky showdog dream! (Paper Moon) Do yourself a favor and type in Drewli on Google and youll see garry hixon talking about Drew Barrymore. I recommend watching this movie drunk or stoned.-I love you Drewli, you are the real Tweety Bird

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Have Always Loved This Movie
Review: This movie has always been one of my favorites, and I am having a tough time understanding just why Fox has not yet released it on DVD... years ago they released a "director's cut" version of it on VideoDisk...and it has been out for years on VHS tape... but not DVD yet? Oh well.

This movie has a great, fun storyline, and the soundtrack is beautiful, as well as the area in which it was filmed. Most of it was filmed in the breathtaking rolling foothills near Jamestown, CA, and in the former Red Hills Ranch movie town of the same area. You might recognize the town in this film as the same one shown in Back To The Future Part III. Anyway, just enjoy this movie for what it is... a fun Western, but where the women are the heroes and prove to the men that they can take care of themselves. Thanks for listening.

Rating: 5 stars
