Ratings and reviews

This is a GAY CLASSIC! Albeit a bit old school in nature, it kind gives off the " Robin Williams Birdcage meets Wesley Snipes Tu Wong Foo" vibe, but putting glitter, Sass and Australian Didgeridoo on top. One has to use imagination as its void of sexually explicit content as most modern gay films tend to be. This film showcases the joi de vivre of campy drag queens, doing what they love and not being ashamed about it!

This movie is still one of my all time favorites. It's full of humor and drama that walks hand in hand with a very touching story. It also touches on some very serious topics. This movie really has it all. Have seen it many times over and will continue to do so, I'm sure. I will always recommend this movie.

Brilliant deserving the same sort of cult statis as rocky horror. All three lead actors deserve oscars for their roles especially considering the roles they normally play,showing their incredible skill and range as actors.
