Amazon.co.uk Review
For anyone who wants to catch a glimpse of the Los Angeles "lounge" scene that was in vogue during the early and mid-1990s, here's the movie that virtually defined that brief but colourful nightlife milieu. As an added bonus, it just happens to be a very funny, observant story about love, loss and male bonding among a group of friends who struggle to find decent jobs by day, and lurk through Hollywood's hottest nightclubs by night. A sort of latter-day Rat Pack, they include Mike (writer-actor Jon Favreau) and his closest buddy, Trent (Vince Vaughn), who are waiting for the big show-biz break that seems to be eluding them. Mike's twisted up about the girlfriend he left back East to pursue his going-nowhere standup comedy career, and Trent uses the word "money" as an adjective ("Man, we look totally money tonight") with such frequency that you may find yourself slipping into lounge-lizard mode after watching the movie. One of the most noteworthy indie-film success stories of the 90s, Swingers is a time-capsule comedy that seized its moment in the spotlight, launched several promising careers and continues to maintain its lasting appeal. --Jeff Shannon

5.0 out of 5 stars this movie is money baby!, 23 Jan 2002
This review is from: Swingers [VHS] [1997] (VHS Tape)
man this film rocks,if your like me and your feeling low about yourself due to being single or recently dumped by your girl then this movie is a real pick-me up.the main man 'mikey'is just that guy,he has low self-esteem and cant get to grips with chatting up women in bars,but his buddys rob ,trent and sue make sure he gets what he needs. a funny,well written and filmed movie,made on such a small budget ive seen it 5 times and im gonna see it again.afterwards youll wanna slick your hair back,find a nice jazz/swing bar and kick it ...

5.0 out of 5 stars This soundtrack is money, baby!, 15 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Swingers (Audio CD)
This is a class soundtrack. Lots of old jazz and swing music, generally, but really outstanding stuff from Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and Dean Martin. Most instantly recognisable track is the classy "Pick Up The Pieces" by Average White Band. (the tune with the sax that goes "der der der der, der der der der, der der der DER DER DER DER, DER DER DER DER" - whatever, you'll know the song, brilliant). Just part with the cash, baby, and let the beautiful babies know you're money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Film, shame about the DVD, 25 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Swingers [DVD] [1997] (DVD)
Swingers has got to be my all-time favourite film, and there is no question that everybody should own it on some format or another. That said, this DVD is not what I had hoped for. The only extras are subtitles in English and a couple of trailers. No commentary, no documentary. Even the scene selection is a bit dodgy, as the movie is divided into just ten parts, which makes it hard to pick out the classic moments. If you're a Swingers fan, buy it, but don't expect too much.
