Info

Ryan and Jennifer are opposites who definitely do not attract. At least that's what they always believed. When they met as twelve-year-olds, they disliked one another. When they met again as teenagers, they loathed each other. But when they meet in college, the uptight Ryan and the free-spirited Jennifer find that their differences bind them together and a rare friendship develops.

Boys and Girls Audience Reviews

Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
ebiros2 The movie captures the outstanding beauty of San Francisco bay area. In reality, the area isn't as glossy looking (there are many poor areas, and poorly maintained areas) as in the movies, but if you look carefully, there are areas like those shown in the movie.Movie's treatment of life as a college student at UC Berkeley is just as glossy. UC Berkeley is only school that I know of that the campus is part of the town that the school is located. There are no perimeter set that isolates the University from the surrounding town. School merges right in with the town. This contrasts sharply with Stanford, that's across the bay where its campus is isolated from its surrounding town of Palo Alto by quite an expanse of land and roadways.Is life in school like shown in the movie ? Well that's made extra glossy too. The movie should be viewed as a situational drama that's situated in UC Berkeley. College life aren't like what's shown in the movie either. These are kids from super privileged household if they really existed.Movie's plot is very predictable. What else would boys and girls in college do ? I thought it could have had bit more charm, and/or more story to it. For those who might have fallen in love with San Francisco bay area after seeing this movie, the area is no doubt beautiful, but isn't as new or glamorous as the picture shows it to be. It is now an over crowded place with danger of major earth quake looming.
insomniac_rod To be honest, I had very low expectations before watching this movie. But as I'm a die hard fan of Claire Forlani's sexiness , I decided to catch this on Cinemax.I ended up liking it a lot. It's a clever romantic story that deals with the burdens of growing on the sentimental aspects that deal with love relationships.The ending is very credible and I bought Prince Jr.'s final speech for convincing Forlani's character to "be with him". It ended up in a perfect way. I mean, they had a wild night of sex but it had positive consequences such as starting a sentimental relationship although it was very difficult at the beginning.A really worthy romantic comedy. Please give it a chance, you won't regret. I'm a huge fan of Mrs. Forlani but the movie is also worth your time.
johnnyrj So I'm sitting at my pc downloading Megadeth cds when I glance over to see what my wife is watching on TV. Having been with my wife for 10 years now I can usually guess what she's watching, and she has a tendency to enjoy romantic comedies. I wasn't wrong. The only thing worse than a romantic comedy is one that's contrived and insults the intelligence of the common viewer. I only managed to catch one scene but it left an impression on me which in turn led me here.The dance scene where everyone is supposed to be in a bar made me want to throw up on myself and then lick it off and smile about it. What bar on this planet has everyone doing a coordinated dance routine followed by a shower of soap / paint and water? How many bars on this planet have a shower setup on the dance floor? I also noticed the "dj" (guy playing mp3s with his pc) grabbed an umbrella to protect himself and his "equipment" from the "spontaneous" shower on the dance floor. Last time I checked WATER + ELECTRICITY = BAD. The only problem was that he never covered his "equipment". Oops. I like most of these actors and they have done far better work than this contrived, Hollywood laced garbage.
Christopher Tidy The plot of Boys and Girls is simple. A boy and a girl (Freddie Prinze, Jr and Claire Forlani), who at first seem a most unlikely couple, gradually discover their similarities. To me, the film gets off to a slightly slow start, but becomes increasingly watchable as it progresses. The plot is similar to that of When Harry Met Sally, but the style of the film is totally different. It's essentially a teen movie in the vein of Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. But it matches up to other teen movies well and offers some good laughs (mainly from Jason Biggs as the womanising, compulsive liar of a room-mate). For anyone interested in the technicalities of film-making, the final scene in which the plane takes off is very smartly edited, too. In summary, if you like teen movies you'll enjoy this, otherwise you'll hate it.
