COYOTE UGLY (2000)
MORGAN'S RATING
A sexy romantic comedy featuring a spectacular sound- track, Coyote Ugly is the story of one girl's wild adventure in the big city. Graced with a velvet voice, 21- year-old Violet Sanford heads to New York City to pursue her dream of becoming a songwriter, only to find her aspirations sidelined by the accolades and notoriety she receives at her "day job" as a bar made at Coyote Ugly, a new night club with a twist. It's the hottest place in town, featuring a team of sexy, enterprising young women who tantalize customers and the media alike with their outrageous antics.

"The most disappointing movie of the summer." -- Stephanie Zacharek, Salon
