Sorority Boys (2002)
5/10
A bad movie
25 December 2003
'Sorority Boys' is so bad and so stupid it almost becomes fun again. Almost is not enough. The story is something I will not discuss because when other things are right in a movie like this, the story doesn't need to be very good. The jokes need to be funny. Here they are not, although I had one big laugh somewhere. Unfortunately it was just one.

For the stupid things we can start with the three guys dressed up as girls. Those things can be pretty funny but not when the three guys look like guys in women clothes. The movie has done nothing to actually make these guys look like girls. What is even more stupid is that we as the audience are the only people who see that, apparently.

This is not everything. The guys who do not look like girls end up in a house where only girls live. You can say that these people are not the most beautiful girls, although one of them is played by Heather Matarazzo. Another one Leah (Melissa Sagemiller), who is sort of the leader of the group, is actually very beautiful and that girl is exactly the one who dressed up Dave (Barry Watson) is falling in love with. The other two guys are called Adam (Michael Rosenbaum) and Doofer (Harland Williams), just for the record.

If this movie could be good in another way I don't know. I think the idea has some nice things and a lot of oppertunities. When they stop with the idea and try to do it this simple I feel a little disappointed. If you want to see a funny movie about a man in women clothes you better watch something like 'Tootsie' or' Mrs. Doubtfire'.
