Martin Donovan and Christina Ricci in The Opposite of Sex (LGBT W/O)

Date of Review:  Jun 23, 2001
The Bottom Line: The Opposite of Sex is a movie that amuses you on the surface, then annoys you. You really have to work to get past the annoyances.
Review: Summary

Christina Ricci plays a bitchy, bossy, scheming, and bigoted 16 year old, and the filmmakers try to figure out how to make us like her.

DeDee Truitt (Christina Ricci) is a tornado. A one-woman destructive force, she lies,...

Sex: recreation or procreation?

Date of Review:  Apr 21, 2000
Review: Actually, the movie justifies both (Look at above title). Scripted by Don Roos, the movie seems to constantly expect us to categorize the characters into "love" and "hate" lists, even if we weren't even thinking of doing so. Christina Ricci puts up...

The Opposite of Sex --- An interesting dark comedy that is quite quirky

Date of Review:  Nov 15, 2007
The Bottom Line: It's recommended because there aren't many films out there like it, but it may not appeal to all fans of film.
Review: The Opposite of Sex is supposed to be a "scathing comedy" (according to its tagline), but isn't quite as provocative as it would like people to think. The film is presented from the point of view of Dede Truitt, a 16 year old girl that has just...

One of the most honestly hilarious movies in years

Date of Review:  Oct 29, 2002
The Bottom Line: Give it a try..
Review: There is a line that cuts right to the core of what The Opposite of Sex is really about right at the end of the film. It is perhaps one of the best movie lines of all time. Matt (Ivan Sergei) says to Bill (Martin Donovan), "You don't get to make it...

THE OPPOSITE OF SEX AKA THE OPPOSITE OF A GOOD MOVIE

Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2006
The Bottom Line: Not recommended. It just doesn't work.
Review: Something is wrong when the main character, Christina Ricci (Dedee Truitt), who plays a 16-year-old pregnant miscreant, is screaming in pain while in childbirth...and you're glad. Ricci was the most experienced actress in this movie and brought a...

Jerry Springer in the Movie's but where is Jerry?

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2000
Review: So where should I begin on this one? Yet another movie that emphasis on alternate lifestyles. But on the bright side this movie has a little bit of everything in it that makes a movie, well a movie. Included within the movies walls are none other...

The Opposite of Sex - an example of great casting...

Date of Review:  Apr 21, 2000
Review: When I first saw the opposite of sex when it came out in the theater, I wasn't sure what to expect.I knew Christina Ricci, who played the little girl in the Adam's family Movie (Wednesday?) was in it, and I knew there were gay characters, and...

The opposite of...well, something anyway....

Date of Review:  Mar 23, 2003
The Bottom Line: Its got all kinds of stuff Tipper Gore and Joe Lieberman really, really wouldn't like our kids to see...take that as you will.
Review: Prejudice warning: I happen to be a big fan of those indie-type comedies where people talk endlessly about their issues with relationships and sexual identity and their inability to fit in with normal society. Election? Loved it. Ghost World? Loved...

Watch the Opposite of sex with friends

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2000
Review: This movie is laugh out loud funny. This film was a very different role at the time for Chrisina Ricci, but she did fabulous in the part! If you enjoy being able to laugh at life's mysteries, you will enjoy this film.

This movie explores...

Slightly better than other black comedies I've seen recently

Date of Review:  Feb 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: Even though I didn't find this funny, I did enjoy the performances from the main cast.
Review: "Dedee Truitt" (Christina Ricci) is a manipulative 16-year-old who is pregnant. She takes us, through narration, on how she has manipulated men, including the gay lover (Ivan Sergei) of her half-brother (Martin Donovan), to get what she wants.
