Really Surprised!
Crappy film
It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
View MoreIn other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Matt is an ordinary teenager who accidentally finds himself with a girl in an elevator during a blackout. There, he falls in love with her but unfortunately, he's completely unaware of her identity. Now, he must find her between 100 girls before the end of school otherwise he might lose her forever. We follow Matt throughout the whole movie in his weird attempt of finding the girl of his dreams which proves to be a lot harder than he thought (although she's right under his nose the whole time).It's a very romantic movie which inevitable teaches us loads of stuff about both boys and girls, how they see each other, what they want from each other and most important, how they are able to love each other. An interesting story which proves to be quite addictive and provides an unexpected ending (at least for me). I surely recommend it, especially to teens. Enjoy!
View MoreThough I don't usually go for romantic comedies, "100 Girls" is a standby favorite of mine. When Matt is trapped in an elevator during a power outage with a girl whose face he didn't see (obscured by a large load of laundry she was taking to the dorm laundry room), he finds that the anonymity of darkness allows him to overcome his shyness and actually talk to the other girl, rather than his usual response of being stunned into tongue-tied silence. Several meaningful conversations later, they share an incredible sexual interlude in the dark elevator, and Matt wakes the next morning hopelessly in love...and no idea as to the identify of his 'mystery girl'.This film is hilarious and awesome. There aren't many well-known actors in it, but that's okay. It still illustrates many poignant points about sex and the differences between men and women. I think that anyone who sees this film will end up laughing as well as nodding their head in silent agreement of the ideas and arguments put forth. You don't have to agree with everything, just sit back and enjoy the battle of the sexes! The humor is very good. Everything from a competitive battle of table hockey with the one girl involving a game of the loser stripping nude, to the young man finding himself in a troubling situation with the obnoxious and phony boyfriend of another girl, the laughs and the surprises never stop. All in all, this is a great movie that I highly recommend. However, it only works as a great film if you understand what to take seriously and what to laugh at.Overall rating: 7 out of 10.
View More100 Girls tells the story of Matthew, a nerdy College student who has a sexual encounter in an elevator during a blackout and spends copious amounts of time trying to figure out her identity. What sets 100 Girls apart from other teen comedies is the dialogue- centric scenes which add a level of intelligence to the characters and also help move the story along. However, this also proves to be disadvantageous, as the film's characters fit every conceivable stereotype. Matt is the awkward nerd. His roommate Rod is a misogynistic dimwit who spends hours putting weights on his penis whilst degrading and depersonalizing women. Matt enlists the help of former high school acquaintance Wendy, the stereotypical cute girl next door. His and Rod's Women's Studies professor, Ms. Stern is hairy-arm-pitted man-hater. Patty is the hyper-sexual slut and her boyfriend Crick,the hyper- masculine sexual abuser. Dora is the "ugly" girl unaware of her beauty. Other characters include Cynthia, the blonde knockout and Arlene, the competitive "tomboy". Matt later attempts to dress in drag as Francesca and discovers that as such, he is able to communicate more effectively with women. This, in turn, bolsters his confidence and culminates in a speech in front of the girls dorm, where he realizes he can have any girl he wants. In summary, while this film tries to pass itself off as a critique of gender relations, it is in actuality a slightly more intelligent variant of the sex romp. If you enjoy unconventionality, this film is worth a watch.
View MoreI really enjoyed watching this movie for several reasons.Firstly, (and let's get this out of the way right now) it was written by the same person that gave us "Eight Days a Week," another narrative classic which gives guys like me hope.Second, it delves into not only the male frame of mind, but also takes us into the other side of the spectrum and shows us how women think about men.This time around, we have a different character: Matthew, who, during a blackout on a college campus, has a sexual encounter with an unknown girl in an elevator. Unfortunately, when he comes to in the elevator, the only thing that can connect him to said unknown girl is her panties.Just like "Eight Days a Week," Matthew also has a friend with an absurd quirk. (Think Peter's friend with an even more disgusting prop.) I've noticed in these movies that the narrator has such vivid descriptions of their objectives or possible threats... it's like there's something even I could stand to brush up on.Finally, I love how it all ties together. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it, so I'll just leave you all with this: anyone who sees Michael Davis movies will become obsessed with Michael Davis.10/10
