SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

sandy-340 This is one of the most vulgar, dreadful, meaningless movies I've ever seen. Anne Heche is a hyperactive nut running around the city with two creepy characters - a dogooder weirdo and a criminal sex addict. Can they get a little LESS creative?? Trashy, disgusting, gross... there is no way to describe this pile of garbage. It makes women look stupid, shallow and pathetic at every turn. I can't believe they wasted their time on this mess. I thought it was going to be at least insightful... but it was just a giant disappointment on every level. ZERO talent on display here! Don't waste your time ... you'll be so nauseous after the first 15 minutes, you won't want to watch the rest.

Roth van Turnhout The movie stars Anne Heche and Marcia DeBonis as the kind of unrealistic best friends. Primarily focusing on the friendship between the kindly Bebe (Marcia DeBonis) and the crazy Dee Dee (Anne Heche, as herself?....), the film consists of an almost female cast. Taking place over one day in New York City, Bebe eagerly prepares for a date she has later that evening with a man. Dee Dee, her best friend, is not enthusiastic about this upcoming event. Dee Dee and Bebe wander New York getting Bebe ready for a date and making scenes. Along the way they pick up a sex-addict sidekick (Alia Shawkat) This results in some crazy situations...You can see that it's a very low-budget movie. However there are funny moments, especially from Heche. It is not a great movie, but an enjoyable chick-flick...

Paul Magne Haakonsen "That's What She Said" is a chick flick, no doubt about it.That being said, then I am not saying that the movie is bad. As a guy, then I found the movie to be entertaining enough and also had its moments of fun and laughter, but as an overall pictures, then the movie just wasn't extraordinary or unique enough to stand out for my liking.The story is about three women in New York; Dee Dee (played by Anne Heche) who is struggling to get past a break-up that is haunting her, Bebe (played by Marcia DeBonis) who is waiting for the phone call from a guy she slept with once while drunk, and Clementine (played by Alia Shawkat) who has just been dumped by her boyfriend.The three individuals playing the lead roles were doing good jobs with their given characters, and portrayed them quite nicely."That's What She Said" does handle the three different story lines quite well and managed to weave them together in a good and comprehensible way. And as such, then director Carrie Preston did a great job.However, this is a chick flick, and I am sure the women in the audience will enjoy this movie far more than the men. As such, then I at rating this movie as being mediocre, because it wasn't outstanding to me in any way. A 5 out of 10 ratings from me.

DaliParton This movie is about women, but as a guy I am going to write about it from from my perspective. If any men had spoken lines, I can't remember them. Men still had a role, but mostly as off-screen foils for the women. Despite all that, this is a movie with a lot more to offer viewers of both sexes than stereotypical chick-flicks like The Notebook or the majority of rom-coms.It is a story about three women in NYC coping with their own personal sets of dysfunction in a variety of tragicomic ways, with emphasis on the comic. The humor is not so over-the-top like Bridesmaids or Bachelorette, but there is plenty of raunch starting off with the opening scene in which one of the women cancels her appointment for a Brazilian wax and makes do with about 5 disposable razors instead. The three main characters have their backstories revealed in a series of quirky events that include jail, subway masturbation, really bad haircuts, plenty of drugs and alcohol, coffee house lesbians, a vibrator used as a lethal weapon and an entire showgirl kick-line falling off the stage because of one act of revenge. It culminates in an estrogen-soaked version of the brawl between buddies trope after which they all raise a glass to various universal ideals with a feminine slant.The movie is much more low budget, low-key, talky and character driven than the blockbuster comedies we've all seen or at least seen marketed. That isn't a bad thing at all, it's got a lot more verite than those and is still a fun little film.Best one-liner in the movie: "Stop fighting, I'm getting carpal tunnel."
