The title character is too self-absorbed to be all that engaging, and the movie's depiction of gender issues seems retrograde.

Despite its many infuriating flaws -- not the least of which is Amy's self-absorbed personality -- Amy's O's honesty will win you over. Jan 31, 2003

When compared to the usual, more somber festival entries, Davis' highly personal brand of romantic comedy is a tart, smart breath of fresh air that stands out from the pack even if the picture itself is somewhat problematic. Jan 2, 2003

The whole mess boils down to a transparently hypocritical work that feels as though it's trying to set the women's liberation movement back 20 years. Oct 4, 2002 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

About Amy's cuteness, Amy's career success (she's a best-selling writer of self-help books who can't help herself), and Amy's neuroses when it comes to men. Sep 27, 2002 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Like Kissing Jessica Stein, Amy's Orgasm has a key strength in its willingness to explore its principal characters with honesty, insight and humor. Aug 29, 2002 | Rating: 4/5

a nightmare date with a half-formed wit done a great disservice by a lack of critical distance and a sad trust in liberal arts college bumper sticker platitudes. Feb 12, 2003 | Rating: 0.5/4 | Full Review…

Julie Davis is the Kathie Lee Gifford of film directors, sadly proving once again ego doesn't always go hand in hand with talent. Nov 27, 2002 | Rating: 0/10

Frankly, it's kind of insulting, both to men and women. And it's not that funny -- which is just generally insulting. Oct 2, 2002 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Amy's O is an American indie comedy starring Julie Davis as Amy, author of a self-help novel titled "Why Love Doesn't Work", which has made her very successful and very rich. Surprise, surprise, she meets a man and starts falling in love, thereby making her re-think her negative outlook on love. Along the way, Amy looks at her own sex and love life, often in obsessive detail, examining her own neurosis and other peoples hang-ups. It's a very mediocre film - Julie Davis is fine enough, though a little grating after a while, but the supporting cast, including the love interest, are all pretty blah. The story is also completely unoriginal and the conclusion is horribly yucky and Hollywood-ish. To be honest, you'll get (a lot) more laughs, drama and insight out of any Sex & The City episode. I was pretty disappointed.
