Product Description

From hit-making producer Jerry Bruckheimer (GONE IN 60 SECONDS, ARMEGEDDON) comes the special unrated extended cut of COYOTE UGLY. It's the intoxicating sexy comedy starring an unbeatable cast of hot new stars including Piper Perabo (CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN) and Maria Bello (PAYBACK). Moving to New York to pursue her dream of becoming a famous songwriter, Violet Sanford (Perabo) finds herself desperate and broke. Through a twist of fate, the shy, innocent Violet lands a job as a barmaid at the hottest nightclub in town -- the down and dirty, wild and fun Coyote Ugly. Overflowing with attitude, the "Coyotes" spend more time on top of the bar than behind it, tantalizing the standing-room-only crowd with their outrageous antics! It's one wild adventure for a small-town girl with big city dreams.

As a producer, Jerry Bruckheimer makes movies for guys, mostly action films like Top Gun and Gone in 60 Seconds. The ones he makes that feature women, such as Flashdance and now Coyote Ugly, broaden their appeal with a fondness for "strong women." For Bruckheimer, that means self-determined, attractive women who don't need men to get what they want. Is there anything sexier than that? In Coyote Ugly, the charming young waif Piper Perabo stars as Violet, a New Jersey waitress who moves to New York to make it big as a songwriter. She has absolutely no idea how the music business works, relying instead on her faith in her own abilities. In order to make ends meet, she gets a job in a bar called Coyote Ugly, where the bartenders are scantily clad women who dance on the bar and order around their mostly male clientele. Really, they are strippers who don't have to take off their clothes. In fact, the owner (Maria Bello) orders them to enact the first rule of strip clubs: "Appear available but never be available." Bruckheimer is smart enough to focus on the naive girl instead of the seamier side of the story, following her as she realizes her dream and picks up a disposable but nice man along the way. Further "empowering" the female figures in the film, Zoe (Tyra Banks), the bartender whom Violet is replacing, leaves in order to go to law school. See? They're as smart as they are sexy! Then there's John Goodman, who turns in an absolutely charming performance as Violet's concerned father. This is a sweet and inoffensive film as long as you don't think too much about it. --Andy Spletzer

DVD features
The bonus features on the unrated extended cut DVD of Coyote Ugly are just like the movie itself: innocuous and entertaining. Guys will be happy to know that Piper Perabo's nude love scene has been included, and girls will enjoy the commentary track, cut together from two separate tracks on the previous DVD release, and focusing primarily on a lot of lightweight anecdotes by Perabo and her "Coyote" bar-girl costars; it just may be the most air-headed DVD commentary ever recorded (along with occasional comments by director David McNally and producer Jerry Bruckheimer), but it's obvious that these young women bonded well and thoroughly enjoyed making the movie. The other features are mostly culled from the movie itself: In "Coyote 101" the Coyotes recall their training (spinning bottles, learning dance moves, etc.); "Action Overload" a perfunctory compilation of the movie's hottest Coyote moments; "Inside the Songs" pays cursory tribute to songwriter Dianne Warren; "Search for the Stars" chronicles the arduous process of casting the Coyotes from among 4,000 hopefuls; and LeAnne Rimes (who provided Perabo's singing voice for the film) appears in a music video for "Can't Fight the Moonlight," one of several fine songs that Warren wrote for the film's bestselling soundtrack. The deleted scenes aren't bad; at least one of them should've been added back to the film, especially a scene where Bello's character tells the backstory of how and why she opened the "Coyote Ugly" bar to realize her own big-city dreams. --Jeff Shannon

From The New Yorker
Cynical Hollywood moviemaking at its worst. The latest mess produced by the overblown hand of Jerry Bruckheimer ("Gone in 60 Seconds," "Con Air") concerns a Jersey songwriter (Piper Perabo) waiting for her big break while working in a loud, razzle-dazzle nightspot full of dancing bartenders and drunken patrons. Maria Bello, Tyra Banks, Izabella Miko, and Adam Garcia stomp the bar to pieces in choreographed mayhem, but there isn't a shred of a story to hang their characters on. The film, directed shamelessly by David McNally, is so haltingly edited that body parts seem to be flung at the camera; it's a whirling dervish of butts and breasts which makes "Flashdance" seem the height of understatement. -Bruce Diones

>>>Info About UNRATED SCENES
I got my hands on a copy the week before it came out and here are the extra parts that weren't in the initial release...even as bonus deleted scenes. I may have missed some...it has been some time since I have seen the movie.

- Extra solo dance scene with Tyra Banks to the song "Up In Here" (If Tyra could dance a little better they probably would have kept this scene)

- More outfits and dialogue can be seen in the changing room scene with Violet and Cammy.

- Phone conversation with Violet's dad includes her telling him to hold on while she dresses.

- Sex scene has been upgraded to softcore porn. (Obvious body double)

- Bra scene on the bar seems to be extended, correct me if I'm wrong

- New baseball scene with Cammy taking her clothes off to distract the opposing team. (Cheesy)

- Various inserted close up shots of the women's curves.

My advice is to stick with the original version. I have bought unrated DVDs before and this is the ONLY one where I regret doing so. Unless you are a straight man...which if you were, why are you buying this chick flick? That's about the only person who would enjoy the new additions. I literally cringe every time the new scenes come on. The theatrical version was sexy...but not in your face, trying way too hard to be sexy like this version.

A Movie to Howl For!-"COYOTE UGLY"!
"Coyote Ugly" has to be the best romantic dramedy this year, even though this year has had it's share of bad romances-Autumn in New York, Down to You and The Next Best Thing just to name a few. The bar dancing scenes are incredible accompanied by a fantastic soundtrack including one of my favorites, "Pour Some Sugar on Me". Plus there are two new great songs from LeAnn Rimes,who is also in the movie, but I'm not reviewing the soundtrack so I'll skip this. And that's just the stuff you see in the previews. What you don't see on the surface through the previews are the great performances from newcomer Piper Perabo, Adam Garcia and the always great John Goodman. the story is mainly about Piper Perabo's character, nicknamed Jersey, who goes into the big city trying to get someone to perform her well written songs. She runs into several problems with a new boyfriend, some disagreements with her father, and many crazy encounters at the bar "Coyote Ugly". The title is explained in the movie to mean when you go home with a one night stand after a night of big drinking and you wake up with someone so ugly that you would rather chew your arm off than wake them up to know you're leaving. Believe me, you're not going to feel that way leaving this one! BUY THIS MOVIE!!!

Lived Up Expectations
Coyote Ugly is a fantastic movie that not only incorporates that typical... guy finds girl, loses girl, gets girl back... chick flick storyline, but also a whole lot of fun and excitement. It was in my opinion, one of the cutest and funnest movies of 2000. Piper (Violet-leading actress) played the right role for the part. She has an innocent face that's hard not to fall in love with. As for the leading actor, he too shines in his part, with his down to earth personality that depicts the hard-working population of society. I highly recommend this movie, not only for the so called, "hot babes," (as many males would describe it) but for the countless breathtaking moments of desire for sweet love. If you're a romantic, you'll surely LOVE this movie, because I know I did. Leann Rimes really fit in great in the picture also. Her songs worked magic upon the atmosphere of the movie. I even have the soundtrack! Anyhow, I hope all of you watch this movie because I'm sure both guys and girls will enjoy it, and maybe you'll appreciate your significant other afterwards... or strive to reach your career.
