It's supposed to be post-feminist breezy but ends up as tedious as the chatter of parrots raised on Oprah.

Reviews for Amy's O
Feels familiar and tired.

Davis ... gets vivid performances from her cast and pulls off some deft Ally McBeal-style fantasy sequences.
08/23/02
A depressingly retrograde, 'post-feminist' romantic comedy that takes an astonishingly condescending attitude toward women.
08/22/02
[Davis] has a bright, chipper style that keeps things moving, while never quite managing to connect her wish-fulfilling characters to the human race.

Top CriticDavis has energy, but she doesn't bother to make her heroine's book sound convincing, the gender-war ideas original, or the comic scenes fly.

Entertaining despite its one-joke premise with the thesis that women from Venus and men from Mars can indeed get together.

Amy and Matthew have a bit of a phony relationship, but the film works in spite of it.

Despite its title, Amy’s Orgasm is not a porno, though it is as tedious as one.

Surprisingly insightful

Imagine Susan Sontag falling in love with Howard Stern.
