This clunky road movie about three drag queens (Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes, and John Leguziamo) who get stranded in a sleepy Nebraska town on their way to a beauty contest, is too uplifting for its own good. Released during drag's mid-'90s heyday when RuPaul and the Wigstock documentary were all the rage, To Wong Foo aimed straight for the mainstream with its inoffensive camp and "can't we all get along" moralism. While gay-activist groups howled about straights getting the lead roles in To Wong Foo, in the end the filmmakers really couldn't have done better than this trio of actors. John Leguziamo provides real sass and bite as a Latino (or should we saw Latina?) drag queen, and Wesley Snipes is surprisingly fierce as the imposing leader of the pack. Saddled with a cloying Southern accent and off-kilter wig, Patrick Swayze barely holds his own with his costars, though. To Wong Foo is best viewed as a cultural artifact of a time when it seemed as though drag could rule all tomorrow's parties. --Ethan Brown |

My mom had mentioned that a few years ago there was this movie that had Patrick Swayze in it and he dressed as a woman and went on this road trip with other cross dressers. The hardest thing about this movie is knowing and remembering the title. I ended up finding it by dumb luck. since owning this movie from the end of December 2008, I have watched it 5 times. Great movie and it just cracks me up! |

Drag queen love. |

To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything Julie Newmar is a cute and funny film about three drag queens who want to be legends. Patrick Swayze is the prettiest man/woman ever! Wesley Snipes, well he isn't so graceful. This is a great buddy buddy flick, check it out sometime. |

I have treasured this movie for years. I own the vhs version, but rarely want to take the time and trouble ( all that rewinding) to get it out. With the new and used option at Buyadvd it is very simple to find your favorites at great prices with just a few clicks of a button. Who can imagine those three hansome guys posing as women? Hard to believe but they do it well. Even with those bulging muscles they all are great at portraying elegant "Drag Queens". This movie is wonderful, funny, and setimental. I never tire of watching it. At the time this movie came out there seemed to be an era of "Drag Queen" movies. This one, by far, is the best. The others are entertaining as well however; I believe this one tops them all. While watching you can Laugh, cry, and relate to the personal growth of each of the characters as they try to help "the little boy in drag" reach "her" true potential. These amazing "career girls" also give the entire tired and dowdy town a great makeover. I would highley recommend this movie to anyone for a great evening's entertainment. |

THE MOVIE THAT KILLED THREE CAREERS |
|
Ah yes, the movie that killed three careers. Wesley Snipes was a respected action man until he put on a dress in this movie. Same with Swayze. Leguizamo is at least a comic, but when was the last time you saw him in anything either. Now I know Swayze is sick, so I'm not bashing him. Just being honest. If you want to maintain your reputation as a leading man DO NOT put on a dress. Swayze himself was quoted as feeling very bitter over the reaction to this movie. "I don't care what people think of me anymore", he once angrily declared. Wearing a dress will do that to you. Men... be MEN. Draw the line at certain things. Arnold put his film career in a tailspin when he got pregnant in a movie!!! Before long, he experienced his own End of Days, and switched into politics. I can't think of more than two male actors who can wear a dress and still maintain some "cool" about them. Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence. Outside of those two actors, you're a fool to wear a dress on the bigsceen. Imagine Clint Eastwood, Sean Connery, Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, Harrison Ford, Al Pacino, John Travolta, etc. wearing dresses!!! Maybe the three actors in this movie would be amoung those names if they had not made this turkey of a movie, and forever ruined their images as leading men. |
