I love this movie so much

SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

I think I must have seen a completely different movie from all of the other reviewers as this is quite possibly the worst movie I've ever seenHow on earth you could film it over a period of six years and end up with such a rambling, incoherent series of snapshots is quite beyond me.Lest anyone reading this think it is from some rabid homophobe let me state that I am a gay man, I have lived in the East End, I do consider drag (can be) an art form and I wholeheartedly encourage the human race to seek out alternative lifestyles BUT this just depicts the characters as shallow, self-centered and utterly narcissistic

STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning The enigmatic, flamboyant Jonny Woo invites us into the world of him and his contemporaries, in the wild and colourful world of Soho's drag quarter. While older hands, such as him and fellow cross dresser John Sizzle, ponder what to do as the years draw on and they fit the bill less, younger, up and coming sorts, such as Amber, have their own hurdles to overcome. The film follows each of these similar yet distinctly unique characters as they make their presence felt on the scene and fly in the face of those that oppose them.The many outlets of media have certainly been used in recent times to promote equality and celebrate diversity, which only those with some kind of defect would complain about to any great extent. Colin Rothbart's film zooms in on the widely documented and exuberantly colourful world of the drag scene, bringing some of it's characters to life and giving you a feel of who they are and what they're about. While you'll drop your jaw at some of the outrageous antics and get some impression of an 'alternative lifestyle', the film lacks a certain sense of cohesion and fails to form a really effective narrative structure to piece it all together with.It exists in a time of openness and transparency, and is a product of this environment. You will care about the characters very much and enjoy the lifestyle so much you'll want to celebrate it, it's just a shame it couldn't all get put together in a way that keeps your attention focused. ***

I love this film so much! Watching this with a couple of friends a few months ago was so much fun with a few sad moments in the film. It really touched me as I knew a couple of people in the film and the ones i didn't know I felt I connected with them once the film had finished. There are some great scenes from parties, makeup, flying wigs and much more. The film takes you on the ups and down of 6 performers on the London club/drag scene and the personal lives. Dressed as a girl is a great window into the lives of some amazing performers! Go see it for yourself, you will love it!!!

I loved the film from beginning to end. I always rate movies according to how much they manage to stir emotions within me. In this case, "Dressed as a Girl" is a success namely because it manages to put you through a whole range of emotions - as you watch, you smile, you laugh, you cheer, you cry... This production is not only a beautiful show that makes you rediscover the wonderfully colourful world of drag, and takes you back to the "glorious years" of the movement some 15/20 years ago - it is also a dramatic film in which the main protagonists open up and tell you their real life story, very humbly accepting to reveal their moments of weakness as honestly as their moments of glory. It is this very honesty that is deeply touching, and that occasionally brings you to tears during the screening.A huge thanks to the whole cast and the director for a beautiful moment and for successfully brightening up what had started as a dark hangover Sunday ;D Looking forward to much more of this! cheers XX Alice (PS: I put 9 out of 10 and not 10 only cause its always good to think there's room for improvement ;))
