Romy and Michele's High School Reunion
N**R
Hilarious
I liked it even more than I did when it first came out. There aren't too many buddy pictures about women. And it was great that their goals & dreams didn't involve hunting & trapping Mr. Right. Just a good story about two friends.

One of the best underdog stories.

Lisa and Mira are hilarious
I hadn't seen this movie in years and rented it recently. The dialogue and the 3 main actresses--Mira Sorvino, Lisa Kudrow, and Janeane Garofalo--are hilarious. See it and laugh about your great or awful days of high school.

Always a delight!
Who can resist this Go-To bit of fluff? Romy and Michele consistently provide a well-needed smile.

Still funny after all these years!
I remembered liking this movie years ago when it first came out, but hadn't seen again in all the years since. This Blu-ray release gave me a good excuse to watch it again and I'm very glad that I did.Romy and Michelle was still a very fun film to watch, even after all these years. Mira Sorvino was just incredible, absolutely inspired, as half of this pair of ditsy airheads with a flair for fashion--and Lisa Kudro and she both had fantastic chemistry together. They were the perfect two actresses to play these very funny, utterly clueless yet thoroughly endearing characters.The story is simple: Romy and Michelle are two underachieving girls having loads of fun, utterly clueless that their unsuccessful lives are anything but great until, in preparation for their 10 year high school reunion, they fill out a questionnaire about their lives since high school and realize that on paper they look like a pair of losers. It is the first time that they've ever looked at themselves objectively and the first time thoughts of being anything but great has ever so much as crossed their minds.Embarrassed to have others think of them as losers, the two of them hatch a plot to masquerade at their reunion as successful businesswomen (claiming to have invented Post-its) in order to impress the clique of girls who made fun of them back in their high school days.Need it be said that once they're at the reunion things don't come off exactly as planned--and that's where some of the fun comes in. I won't say more in deference to those who haven't seen the movie yet.I have to admit that I really enjoyed watching these two actresses performing together once more after all this time and that I laughed as hard as I do with most comedies made today.The filmmakers said they had a second Romy and Michelle film ready to go, but the studio said no to a sequel--even though the first film made money at the box office. Touchstone's complete lack of interest, with no explanation offered, came as a shock and was an utter mystery to them.It's really too bad we weren't treated to more of these two crazily funny and entertaining character's stories--they might have become a very successful franchise. I certainly would have loved to see more of them myself.Even though I enjoyed the movie and highly recommend it, I must report, though, that the Blu-ray appeared a little soft looking. Although it looks better than the DVD, this disc was not at the sharpness and clarity level I'm used to from Blu-ray. The color was really very good and the audio was an improvement over the DVD, but the lack of crisp sharpness on my 65 inch TV is a real head scratcher. Maybe they overdid it with the grain reduction/noise reduction. Who knows? It's certainly a little below par for a Blu-ray from Disney home video.But slightly soft picture aside, I'm extremely glad I bought it and if you get a chance to see this fun and funny movie, do take advantage of the opportunity. It certainly has it's share of hilarious moments.I'm so glad that this Blu-ray gave me a good reason to spend some time with these two very funny and highly enjoyable characters once more. I won't let so many years pass without a visit with Romy and Michelle again.

A Classic!
This is a classic movie! So many memorable quotes to recite but according to my significant other, this movie requires a specific type of humor. Still consider this a must have in the digital library - along with Clueless, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead, Mean Girls and House Bunny!

Un bellissimo Cult anni 90
Era da tempo che desideravo il DVD di questo divertentissimo film! La trama è molto simpatica, in sintesi 2 grandi amiche dalle scuole superiori sanno della riunione dei 10 anni per festeggiare il loro diploma, guardando indietro si rendono conto che non hanno avuto un gran successo nella loro vita rispetto ai loro compagni, ed una volta arrivate alla riunione hanno delle belle sorprese!Il DVD ha 3 lingue incluso l'italiano, purtroppo nessun contenuto speciale!
