Summary: Bashful's DVD Summary #037
Review: Best:

1) It has a few hilariously bawdy moments.
2) You get to see the sexy (yet non-nude) body parts of Tori Spelling, Natasha Gregson-Wagner and Katharine Towne (although Carmen Electra shows nothing).
3) There's a director/actors commentary track and some funny deleted scenes.

Worst:

1) The boy-girl friendship thing, where they awkwardly date other people before finally considering each other, is SO tired. The audience knows where the movie is going 5 minutes into the action.
2) It was too much like every high-school/frat-party/losers-on-a-road trip movie ever made - except it wasn't all that funny. Sol becomes an adult only in the last 5 minutes of the movie and THEN only to justify that last kiss with his new girlfriend.

Recomendation:

Get this one cheap (used) or rent it instead of paying full retail. It's funny, sexy and outrageous - but not enough of either to make this one memorable as a great comedy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A GROWING LOVE AFFAIR
Review: I bought this on a whim. Being a Jamie Kennedy fan, I learned that he was in it. No one had it to rent, so I bought it taking the chance it'd be a clinker. The first time through I thought it was cute. The second time through I really started to like it. The third time through, I became convinced I loved it. So funny and so well done. The strength of the movie is depicted on the cover art: a multitude of well-developed characters, and no, that's not a pun on the clevage. One thing to take notice of and appreciate are the non-stop superb facial expressions throughout. It also tickles me that everytime something sneaky is about to take place, you hear that catchy, but subtle little reoccuring theme song that simply smirks at you.

Ironically for me, Kennedy played a rather small role, but a memorable one nonetheless, and one that he nails as the doormat for a witch of a fiancee and a pain of a boss.

Again, the strength of this flick is in all the great characters that orbit around the life of Mr. Sol Goode (pronounced "good"). "Ss-ol Goode, ay? Did you think of that all on your own?".

Buy it, borrow it, or rent it, but give this movie a chance!

Summary: A CULT CLASSIC
Review: I can't believe it took me this long to find such a gem. Where did this flick come from and why wasn't it in theatres? Sol Goode blows away any of these romanic comedies that are getting released today. Lions Gate sure dropped the ball on this one. Anyway, if you are lucky enough to come across this review, run and don't walk to get a copy, you will thank me later. I thought the movie was absolutely hysterical. So many one liners I don't know where to start.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great and funny movie!
Review: I first saw this movie on the WB last summer and I thought it was hillarious. I have been waiting for the day this movie came out (it took 8 months!)and it was worth the wait! Wait'll you see the DVD! It as more hillarious than when I first saw it on the WB! It has a pretty predictable story but the characters are great and funny. It's a story about a guy that can get any girl, but doesn't realize the one for him might be right in front of him. And enter in all the comical stuff, and that makes a funny movie. Go buy it. You'll laugh your A#$ off! Guaranteed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sol Goode was all good!
Review: I just bought the DVD of Sol Goode and let me tell you...it's all good. This movie was hilarious. I don't remember the last time I laughed so hard. From the original opening credit sequence to the out takes...I was in stiches. If you haven't seen Sol Goode, you better educate yourself. This film will be a cult classic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome Movie
Review: I love this movie. Although it didnt get newhere near enough press as it shouldve. It was very funny, very enjoyable 2 watch, and i loved the cast and the actors did very well in their roles. Balthazar Getty (Sol) was made for this role, he was awesome. Another reason I love this movie was because the first time i saw it was the night i got with some girl....but she eventually dumped me...hahaha. But im not gonna get into that. This movie is great, time after time. Ive seen it like, 5 times and its still funny. I would definitely recommend anybody to buy this movie.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Expected Much More
Review: I watched this film after seeing a trailer then reading these reviews, and I have to say I was pretty disappointed. It was pretty typical and not really that funny, save for a couple moments. The whole plot (boy/girl 'friends' who really have a thing for each other) has been done plenty of times (and much better). To compare this to 'Swingers' is riduculous, 'Swingers' is a much better film. I wouldn't waste your time with this one.
