 Different type of movie with some good laughs October 6, 2007
John Wiggins (NYC, New York)

Most filmmakers bill their film as being unique and typically most arent even close however this film is something different in a good way. Boys and Girls Guide is set up just like the title says as almost a "how to" or guide on how to get down in LA. Some of the jokes are universal to partying and some are specific to the area.
Production vaule is decent for a straight to video feature. If you are expecting the production vaule of a studio movie you wont get it here. Indie film fans that "get" these types of movies will love it.
 Possibly the best modern Party Movie of All-Time July 23, 2007

I'm a total film nut and have seen just about every movie out there. I saw The Boys & Girls Guide to Getting Down several months ago at a special screening in Hollywood...
It totally blew me away. Raw, hillarious, true to the lifestyle. One of the best party films ever. Brilliantly directed and shot, some great unknown actors, and a clever narration vehicle to move the story forward at an upbeat pace. It's like I was watching a collection of the funniest stories from my nightlife experiences in LA. And honestly, for those green newbies to the LA scene...Very informative. Almost educational. You will probably never see this film in a major theatre, but great gem for the personal DVD collection. I'm def putting it on in the background next time we have a rager.
As an indie filmmaker myself, this is the kind of film that keeps me inspired.
Glad you guys finally got this bad boy to DVD.
Good Luck with the Film.

Totally one of a kind. Not a big budget, over-produced, concept comedy - but a great little adventure one night in Hollywood. We follow a handful of 20/30 somethings on a typical weekend night, all on the prowl to have a good time. There's the bitchy girls, the dorky guys, the punk rockers, the hipster boys, and the 80's rappers.... who all flow in and out of one another's storylines. There are trippy graphics/narration that reminds you of a government how-to guide from the 60's. We are taught how to get into a club, how to find a good house party, how to score drugs, why scoring drugs can lead to heart attacks, how to avoid that boy or girl that you really shouldn't hook up with, and generally how to navigate a successful night on the town.
Great Docu-drama September 14, 2009
Laura Crisan (Orlando, FL)
After seeing only half of this docu-drama on Showtime one night, I decided to buy it! Its well worth a watch if you're open minded and willing to take the coke glorification with a grain of salt. :p Its a fun movie to watch with a bunch of friends on a chill evening, so long as no one takes it too seriously. I have an inkling that someone somewhere would look at this as a serious guide as opposed to a comical view of Gen-Y.
The DVD arrived within a 5 day week, and it works, so I have nothing to complain about.
WOW!!!! This movie blew me away. MUST SEE! ---Amazing! October 3, 2007
Austin (Madison, Wisconsin)
I LOVED it!!! I couldn't stop laughing! There were so many moments where I could relate to what the actors were going through. Very pro-drug, in a VERY good way. Say no to Sketchy drugs people, this movie is a MUST SEE!!!!!
