Summary: (Boys dressed like) girls just want to have fun
Review: I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. I thought it would be simply an American knock-off of "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert", but it wasn't. Well, okay, it was a little bit ... but it was more lighthearted, and arguable more fun. Patrick Swayze gives a surprisingly believable and sensitive performance as bossy, mother-hen drag queen Vida, and John Leguizamo is predictably hilarious as ghetto drag-queen-wanna-be Chi Chi. Wesley Snipes is good as the slightly hardened Noxema, although you can sense his slight discomfort at playing the role. Plotwise, it's pretty light ... traveling cross country, the girls have a breakdown in the middle of nowhere and end up waking up the residents of a small midwestern town. The film touches on some serious issues (homophobia, domestic violence, etc) but the emphasis is mostly on being fabulous and having fun. This is the perfect movie to watch when you just want to laugh and lift your spirits.

Summary: A little off the mark, but still a fell-great movie!!
Review: "Sometimes it just takes a fairy..." Let's be honest - this movie wasn't going to win any oscars, but...it's still a fabulous movie! It's funny how most of the movies that are near and dear to my heart were viciously carved to pieces by the critics. I can watch this movie over and over because it is a feel good movie. Sure, it's a bit far fetched...calling these "girls" drag queens is not correct, they are transvestites or transgenders. I guess you can tell the producers of this movie weren't "that way". HeheBottom line is: it's a great movie that you can watch over and over. The storyline is great, humor and wit is great, musical numbers are great, costumes are good and the overall message is awesome. "I love you Miss Vida Boheme". "I've waited a lifetime to hear those words spoken to that name." Need I say more?

Summary: Full of propoganda, amoung other things...REALLY BAD !
Review: None of the three male stars in this movie were convincing homosexual-transvestites. I found it very hard to watch this movie. It's not funny at all and the propoganda in it is so obvious(I suppose that's a good thing). It does nothing but try to brain-wash any and all things that are natural about being a real man. While I don't believe in being violent towards homosexuals, I do believe that accepting this unnatural behavior, as somehow natural, is the most damaging thing you can do to those who practice this life style. To truly love your neighbor is to help him and to help by warning them of the dangers of their life style.
I was so surprised to see these three men playing these roles. It's hard for me to see them as real men in anything else now.
A real man will absolutely hate this film. I warn you, you can potentially be brain-washed if you watch it. [].
I don't recommend this movie at all !!!

Summary: More than just a "Priscilla' rip off.....
Review: Some may say it's a 'Priscilla - Queen of the Desert' rip off, and indeed 'To Wong Foo...' shares a very similar story line to Priscilla (drag queens embark on a road trip) and whilst it lacks much of the wit and charm of Priscilla, there is no denying that 'To Wong Foo...' has its own very special charm and sparkle. Revolving around three drag queens (played by Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo), who set off on a road trip to Hollywood California. Mishaps happen along the way and they become stuck in a small country town. It seems that all is well with the country folk unsuspecting of their true identity. Not is all well though and the three drag queens turn the country town on its heels so everybody benefits. So you could call 'To Wong Foo...' a fable of sorts. It's unlikely that such a town would be so accepting of three outrageous drag queens, but if you suspend your belief in the realities of the harsh world for a moment this movie will give you a very special message. Wonderful performances from the three leads, with Wesley Snipes being an eye opener as a flamboyant drag queen. We are so used to seeing him in masculine action movies and it's wonderful to see him flex another side of his acting muscle. For me though the standout is John Leguizamo. When adorned in full dress and make up he actually makes a convincing female. We have seem him portray a variety of roles over the years and 'To Wong Foo...' is another string to his bow. Shame he is so underrated in the movie world. The picture quality on this DVD is clear and crisp and hard to fault. The vibrant colouring really brings out the bold strong hues of the costumes. Sadly the only special feature is a series of several deleted scenes. Interesting to watch, but I would liked to have seen more effort made with the special features. It may not have the charm, wit or personality of Priscilla, but be rest assured that this movie is a wonderful fable of how acceptance and tolerance is a better way of life than hate and inequality.

Summary: To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar
Review: This is a funny movie, including Wesley Snipes, Patrick Swayze, and John Leugizamo. They did sound like girls. But one part, I don't get. Were they acting like girls or men dressed up as women?

Summary: Wesley, Patrick and John as drag queens, need I say more?
Review: What a hilarious movie. I was so impressed how three straight men like Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo were able to pull off playing the roles of three drag queens. The scenes in this movie are completely hilarious. There are also great supporting performances by Robin Williams, Stockard Channing, Blythe Danner, Michael Vartan and a special appearance by RuPaul. This movie is filled with hilarious lines, funny situations, some good music, amazing acting and some touching moments. I definitely recommend this movie. This film may not have won an Oscar or a Golden Globe but it has won my heart with it's endearing characters and that's enough for me. Too Wong Foo is what great drag movies are all about.
