'To Wong Foo' offers you the chance to see Swayze, Snipes, and Leguizamo like you've never seen them before - especially macho Snipes! And dare I say, they look gorgeous!!
'To Wong Foo' is a flamboyant, outrageous and somewhat daring comedy drama with fantastic performances by the lead actors. The film features stunning costumes and make-up. We follow the adventures of three drag queens on a road trip to Los Angeles. Choosing style over substance soon proves to be a big mistake for our three heroes (or should I say heroins). When they find themselves stranded in a conservative small town called Snydersville, they decide to make the most of a dire situation - and never anticipated changing the lives of everyone around them in the process.
'To Wong Foo' is predominantly a comedy, but delivers some fine dramatic moments as well. This is a wonderful, uplifting comedy drama with a positive message. I enjoyed the musical elements thrown in the mix, and good dialogue, as well. I love this film!

I think Patrick Swayze was incredible in this movie. For a male actor to make you believe he really is a female in mind and body is a large undertaking and he did this for the entire length of the movie. I was entertained from beginning to end, and I also saw Priscilla and liked this just as much. Robin Williams has a little cameo at the beginning that is hilarious, and Stockard Channing does a great job as a small town abused wife. Great movie to watch on a weekend afternoon when you just want to escape and laugh!
Sincerily I think this is one of the best "drag queen movie" they have ever made! Yes, I admit it could be considered VERY VERY similar to the most famous Australian movie "Priscilla The Queen of the desert" but it surely cut a good figure!!! Never boring, it also includes some nice cameos played by famous persons, such as Robin Williams, Naomi Campbell and July Newmar herself. It's nice, wit, joyful and very well played, above all by the 3 main actors, men you would never imagine as transvestites,thanking also to their bodies, usually, so much masculine!!! They accepted a challenge and, in my opinion, they won!! WELL DONE BOYS!!!
I LOVED this movie.We were at best buy,I saw it,and bought it on this simple premise-Patrick Swayze in drag.And it looked like a good movie. So I went home,popped it in,and literally laughed out loud.There's something in this drag queen movies,that makes it almost not offensive.I was afraid it would be bad,(We're Christian)but honestly,I wasn;t offended.
The movie was so good,so sweet,so down right hysterical at times,I almost forgot Patrick swayze was a man.He could have easily blended into our church.
The film starts out With PS and WS getting ready.That scene in itself is hysterical,because we see these rugged,masculine men-Putting on heels and stockings and makeup.WS,at one point,kicks his legs and squeals with delight.
They go to the Drag queen of the year award,WS and PS tie,and ge to go to Hollywood.But when the little"Latin boy in drag is crying"they decide to string him along,and they get stuck in podunk town.
There's a Cameo from Robin Williams thats excellent,And the townswomen are so sweet.and Noxeema(snipes)Befriends a little 4'9,80 pound elderly women.
Cant get any beter than that

This movie about three drag queens, two of whom win a trip to Hollywood, is kind of the ultimate road picture. But the three male stars look better in drag than Bing and Bob ever did. I've seen it a couple of times, and never fail to wonder at the transformation of Patrick Swayze, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo into...well, drag queens. One of the best shots in this movie is at the beginning, when Wesley Snipes' character is walking AWAY from the camera. I wish *I* looked that good.
I suppose there was a kind of freedom in making this movie, for them, because they were not playing a character that looks like them in *real life*. I started out watching because if the novelty, ended up being invested in the characters and liking the movie.
And Blythe Danner is always good, in anything she does.
