Every so often in a movie you come across a characterization that goes beyond the theme and text of the movie itself and provides a portrayal of a character that could be taken as a whole and used as the basis for a separate movie. Such is the character of J.R. portrayed by Camilla Griggs which, surprisingly, is rarely commented upon by reviewers of this movie. Too often she is seen only in contrast with Loretta's feelings and as the antagonist but her character, her personality, what she's looking for and how she goes about it and about meeting her needs is unusual and she could be viewed separately and appreciated. My suggestion is to watch the movie through once and then watch it a second time, paying particular attention to the character of J.R., to how she relates to her newly come by job, her newly come by girlfriend and the others in her life including Loretta. I'm amazed that I haven't seen Camilla Griggs in anything else because she's certainly a talent.

Terrible terrible terrible film.The acting was atrocious.The storyline was weak. The subplots were just plain...bad.The lovescenes were boring.The characters were unbelievable.The sets were unrealistic and ugly.The music was horrible.The inter spliced "comic" was possibly the most interesting part.Good film to watch if you want to die of boredom.Any film starring a cowboy hat wearing lesbian police officer with the hairdo of a weather presenter in cowboy boots playing basketball called JR should be used as an alternative to corporal punishment.I think this is possibly the worst film that I have ever seen.

This movie sucked ......BIG TIME. The acting was on the level of a soft porno. All the lesbians I've seen never looked this good.The characters were weak. The script was predictable. The lighting was bad. The scenes were framed awkwardly. This movie wouldn't even make a good cable reality show because this movie is surreal. The mocca-vanilla thing is cool,but frosty. I am a big Chastity Bono fan too and I missed her. I guess I was snoring at that point. When the Dyke pool player put the nine ball in her side pocket I almost lost it. Even the sex scenes appeared forced. I was starting to believe the two choco-vanilla twisted lesbians were not even lesbians at all! I couldn't figure out what these two actually did to make a living, hang out in a gay bar? I'm sorry, this movie is just plain awful!

This is a very likeable movie about some lesbians looking for love, especially the main character, who thinks she might have finally found someone long lasting -- if she doesn't mess it up somehow. I would have liked it better if the acting and writing wasn't so amateurish at times; the likeability of the characters and (for some) the subject matter does make it worth watching. Besides, sometimes the unpolished and well tad bit bad quality of the film is unintentionally amusing. One question: why is the most sexy scene not one when one of the lesbians who actually like each other are together? If you like this, I suggest "The Incredibly True Story of Two Girls in Love," and "Desert Hearts."
