Absolutely Fantastic

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Whirlygirl isn't terrible, but it's definitely not memorable. (It's not even engaging, had I not been working on some tedious hand tasks while it was on I would have shut it off.) If I were 14 I might have thought Whirlygirl was pretty swell. At its core the film is essentially the standard fantasy storyline of a plain boy's life being transformed by an encounter with the exotic.In Whirlygirl the exotic is the "whirlygirl" herself, an exotic dancer (she doesn't exactly strip) whose erotic dancing skills are legendary. (That seems a ridiculous plot device, even more so considering the film is set in contemporary times.) Boy goes after girl and adventures of one typical type and another ensue.The adventures in Whirlygirl never really feel all that exciting. The various self discoveries don't feel revealing. The scenes of abandoning yourself to the moment feel like imitations of better films.Whirlygirly doesn't feel like a story from someone's life, it feels like a film. Setup, plot device, plot device, plot device, cliché supposedly dramatic conclusion. The End.Despite dipping its toes into drama Whirlygirl is really just a feel good film that's not sickeningly sweet. As such it's a fine film to watch while sick on the couch or stuck in a hotel room that has free HBO.

Wow, this was really terrible.I don't care if they say it was based on a true story, this honestly, and I'm serious, honestly, was the worst movie I have ever seen. The actors were OK, but the story line was just plain stupid. It's about a stripper/escort who honestly looks 10 years older than the main character and his obsession with her, amongst the other 2 or 3 nutballs involved in her life. She out weighs him by at least 20 pounds and he thinks he can go busting into homes/apts in New York like he's freakin spiderman or something. At least in the end he gets a grip...oh my I seriously would never recommend this movie to anyone. What a waste of time.

Whirleygirl stars Julian Morris as a student athlete at a prestigious academy who falls for a stripper who comes to the school to perform. Morris is the straight laced student who figures out how to get a stripper on the grounds to perform. As she is dancing she notices him and gives him a kiss and steals a valuable memento off of him. He actually tracks her down to retrieve his belongings and romance ensues. This is definitely a take off of "Risky Business" but is nice in its own way. Monet Mazur plays the stripper and she does a good job. Morris also does a good job as the good guy torn by his attraction to the free spirted "whirley girl". This is an OK drama and worth viewing.

When i first saw this movie i thought it was going to suck. but i was actually surprised at the effort that the people put into making this movie. although it wasn't a very popular nor original film i still liked it. another thing i liked is how it was filmed at my school Avon Old Farms. when i was watching it, i was in my common room where one of the scened was filmed in, it was cool to see the common room being used by other people besides the school kids. this movie was a lot like "the girl next door" when i say this i mean that it had the plot involving 2 kids, a rebel teenage girl and a not-so-rebel teenage boy. the plot pretty much consists of the girl turning the boy into a rebel and the bay turning the girl into a not-so-rebel girl. like i said, it was a lot like "the girl next door" just not casted with famous people. overall its a good film, i suggest anyone who reads this should see it.
