Skipped Parts - DVD

Quite frankly I ordered this movie because I have a major crush on Michael Greyeyes and whenI saw his name on the cast list I couldn't resisting buying it. It's a good movie, very well donewith a unique story. So, ladies, if you want some gorgeous eye candy along with a very goodmovie, this is the way to go.

This is a great coming of age story that I have watched twice in one week since I decided to buy it on a whim. The story of Lydia and Sam and their exile to Wyoming, their unconventional relationship as mother and son is unforgettable. Lydia isn't a woman who is very good at being a mother considering she drinks quite heavily and goes home with men at the bar. When Sam meets a girl named Maurey, they both decide to start trying to figure out what sex is like. Lydia tells them how to have sex and from that point on, this movie is a strange, oddball journey. This film shows what can happen to kids who grow up too fast, but it does this in a way that is heart-warming and different than most films.I especially liked Michael Greyeyes' character, Hank Elkrunner. He plays a good guy who falls for Lydia only to have to deal with her wild ways. All of the actors in this film did a great job. And surprisingly, this film has a happy ending.All in all, a great, funny film that is sure to stay with you long after its over. Hilarious

This movie was cute. Does not give a realistic view of what would actually happen in this situation, but hey it's fiction. It's not meant to be a realistic portrayal of life. It's meant to entertain you for about an hour and a half and give you a feel good time. The lesson here is that family can be made up of all kinds of characters, and that it all happens under the most unusual of circumstances. So don't watch this movie expecting some life lesson on morals (unless you take away that everyone was accepting and taking care of each other, which is what society should be about). Watch it because it'll make you smile.

I love this movie. I will watch anything that Michael Greyeyes is in. Movie is not to be taken seriously obviously. Just fun!

"Skipped Parts" is like a rollercoaster ride through a library where the only books available are the ones missing the steamy chapters. Sam, our hero, is on a quest for knowledge, but not the kind you'll find in your typical encyclopedia. No, he's got his sights set on the forbidden fruit of literature - the sultry, scandalous, and downright saucy stuff. Sam's determination is as strong as his awkwardness, making for a hilariously cringe-worthy adventure as he navigates the treacherous waters of adolescence armed only with his pen and his burning curiosity.

Absolutely a riot if you are a male and grew up in the late fifties or sixties. Our poor hero suffers through so much as he tries to lose hisvirginity, with a girl who knows not quite as much about sex as he does. Then throw in a single mom, who likes to live with a revolving dooron her bedroom. Due to language and the subject matter is is most definitely R rated and not for the faint of heart, But it is a riot of fun.

Bug Hall's acting is really campy, piss-poor, & the plot of this film is stupid as hell, & it's a really strange film that I really don't recommend or suggest to ever really buy or own.

fresh funny movie about topics that some people will be uncomfortable with. the movie does go from laugh out loud to serious smoothly though showing real consequences for actions. wonderful acting. great story. one of a few movies I rewatch. good picture on dvd extras include commentary.

Excellent movie! Great cast

Really enjoyed the movie

Different; not sure about such youthful discovery/exploration of sexuality, but great to see such famous young actors ... Mischa Barton, Bud Hall, Brad Renfro ... in the early years of their careers, under the guidance of an interesting director ... a plus that it was filmed in Saskatchewan!
