[Winston T. Boogie]

I saw this some time ago streaming. My take was it was a hilarious, politically incorrect, irreverent, throwback style high school comedy with young horny lesbians replacing what would have been young horny boys in the 1970s or 1980s. It was the kind of comedy that actually did make me laugh out loud. I thought the writing and acting were sharp and witty. I don't think it did much that was very different from horny high school comedies from decades past, it just made the horny students female and lesbian. The humor remained the same.

To me, I thought it made a good double feature with Ethan Coen's horny lesbian road movie. Which also basically took standard situations and put lesbians in the roles that in the past we more likely would have seen guys playing. It works, if the comedy is funny, no matter the sex or sexual orientation of the characters.

If you enjoy that style of comedy, I think you will enjoy these pictures. If you tend to find that style of comedy offensive or just find sex comedies to be not your thing, then probably avoid these.
