Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover
101 Ways (The Things a Girl Will Do to Keep Her Volvo) chronicles the romantic and sometimes vexing adventures of a struggling young writer, Watson (Wendy Hoopes). Watson has just moved to the suburbs in New Haven, Connecticut in order to concentrate on her budding writing career. Having grown up in Manhattan her entire life, she is a neophyte to suburbia and of course, to driving. Her over-possessive mother, who is neurotic about safety, convinces her to buy a Volvo, which she quickly realizes she can't afford. Alluding to the famous college dorm flyer "101 Ways to Make Love Without Having Sex", the film follows Watson's attempts to balance romance, car payments and writing her first novel.

2.0 out of 5 stars The movie is Great...the DVD was HORRIBLE!!, April 12, 2003

By	E. Hecht "EDH" (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

OK, I'm a huge fan of this movie. The movie itself is interesting and funny. I am the moderator and creator of the Yahoo Group devoted to Ken Marino (he plays Officer Russotelli in this movie), so it is not like I WANT to say anything negative about this movie. But, I feel completely ripped off and no one else reviewed the DVD version yet...so I feel morally obligated to.

I got my DVD 2 days ago and I am sooooo annoyed! The movie itself seems to play OK (not the best quality I've ever seen but it's OK) but the extras (which is why people generally buy the DVD in the first place) are TERRIBLE!! I will get to the problems in a moment. I first want to tell you that on my Yahoo Group, I did a post asking if anyone else had gotten this DVD. If so, how were their extras? I got some responses and all said that the extra features were as bad as mine, so my complaints are not isolated to my DVD. OK, here are the issues:

A. The trailer had no sound at all.
B. The picture quality of the Deleted Scenes was so bad, that you could barely watch it...it had all those digital looking squares. It was worse than watching a 5th generation VHS tape (taped on SLP mode!). No joke.
C. The deleted scenes froze up AND the sound quality was ATROCIOUS! Every other word was muted (it was all choppy, so you couldn't follow the dialog.)
D. Not to be picky but I'm mad, so I'm telling it all. For what they are charging for this DVD, the case could have been at least somewhat decent quality. I thought all DVD cases were generally the same but this is junk...AND, the picture on the front cover is all blurry and looks like it was printed on a (bad) color printer. These people have some nerve putting out such an inferior product.

I thought venting would make me feel better, but it didn't. Only a refund at this point would.

5.0 out of 5 stars can't get enough of it..., April 25, 2003

By A Customer

i try to catch it everytime it's shown on cable. i just can't get enough of it. too bad though that I cannot find any site that has the music tracklist. I tried to write it all down this morning when i saw it but the letters were too small and the scrolling too fast. can anyone list all the songs? that would be really great...thank you :)

5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it!, November 14, 2002

By	Nicole Phillips (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

I loved it! Thought the characters and the dialogue were fantastic...very clever... Wonder why Hollywood continues to feed us junk these days instead of creative writing like this! Would definitely recommend...especially to anyone who has lived in a big city before!
