Whirlygirl (2006)
I’m not sure what happened here… Director Jim Wilson, who produced Message in a Bottle and Dances with Wolves (two of my favorite films), really messed up his resume with this one. Ok, I take that back. This one’s on the writer as well. As bad as the film was written, I finished it. And that’s saying a lot about the director, considering how terrible the film was.
Monet Mazur from Torque (which will probably be the only role you recognize her in) plays Whirlygirl, a stripper who makes her bucks from horny prep schoolers. The guy lead is played by Julian Morris, whom I’ve never heard of until this movie. He’s the prep schooler who falls in love with the stripper. His grades start slipping and his life spins out of control.
Kind of like Scent of a Woman with a stripper twist (which I like), but totally butchered. First off, this guy’s no Chris O’Donnell. And no woman, no matter how hot, tops Al Pacino blind. And that’s final.
