In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Two seemingly completely different girls, who hate each other since college, by (un)happy circumstances become roommates and start their own hotline agency. Anything more than this would be spoilers. Lauren Miller-Rogen and Ari Graynor are really charismatic and you'll fall in love with them from the beginning. Movie starts quite boring and develops into mediocre comedy, but near the end I was laughing out-loud and because of it, although movie overall doesn't deserve it, I'll rate it 7/10

My wife and I just watched this during a chick flick marathon. She loves romcoms, I make no secret that the "girls from different walks of life become friends" trope will win me over any time, so this seemed like a good fit.We didn't even know the half of it.I'm going to go right out and say it: This is a coded lesbian romcom. This isn't about a WO-mance or "gal pals," this is a flat-out lesbian romcom and one of the most realistic on screen romances I've ever had the pleasure of watching. I can't count the number of times my wife and I shouted "ME" at the screen or cooed over how sweet and genuine the budding romance between Lauren and Katie felt. Sure, Katie gets her sorta stilted romance with awkward movie maker boy, but at the climax (no pun intended) she literally walks away from having sex with him to go make up with Lauren because she loves her. Furthermore, I don't think the implication at the end that Katie is going to continue seeing movie boy while being in a relationship/loving Lauren makes either of her relationships less valid, and the movie doesn't either. As for the sex line side... lord we were laughing all the way through! My wife worked the graveyard shift in an adult video and toy store, and for us to get to see sex work portrayed in a sympathetic and humorous light was really refreshing and charming. We need more movies like this, where gay people are presented as just people, where being a virgin isn't stigmatized, and where sex work is treated like a regular thing. Put this on up on the shelf with "But I'm a Cheerleader," ladies- we finally have another movie where being a young lesbian isn't doom and gloom or a man's poorly written sexual fantasy.

After watching a great movie, I didn't change the channel. This movie went on immediately and was sucked into the storyline immediately. Lauren was just left by her boring boyfriend and Katie's once rent-controlled NYC apartment are both in need of a roommate. Justin Kong plays the funny, gay friend to both and persisted/insisted these once polar-opposite frenemies to share an ideal apartment together. Hesitatingly, they desperately agree!The story continues with the two ladies sharing a phone-sex hotline business and create an awesome friendship along the way. They each learn life lessons from each other.Surprisingly, this was not a big chick-flick hit!!! Funny, cheesy, and clever all in one. Perfect to watch with a best gal pal.

"Hello world for a good time call 1-900-mmm-hmmm." Lauren (Miller) & Katie (Graynor) are both at a rough patch. Lauren's boyfriend is moving to Europe and she lost her job, Katie can't make enough to stay in her apartment so their mutual friend decides it's time they move in together. When they meet they remember they hate each other and it becomes tense, until they find a way to make more money then they ever dreamed of. The preview to this movie made it look very funny to me and I was excited about watching this. The cameos were great and the movie was funny but it was a little more girlie then I was expecting. This is more then a movie about phone sex, its about friendship and being true to yourself. As cheesy as that sounds watch it and you will see what I mean. While there are some pretty racy things in this it's nothing over the top so don't expect a soft-core type movie. Overall, not as funny as I was expecting but still funny and worth seeing. I give it a B.
