Watch Ladybugs For Free

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This isn't the best movie but is watchable. I wouldn't show it to an 8 year old but fits the PG-13 ratting with ease. The fact that Dangerfield is the star and the premise is that a boy cross-dresses as a girl to be the ringer on an all girls soccer team should be some tip offs as to the content. If you didn't like it maybe you shouldn't let your TV be your baby sitter and have them bake some cookies for the church bake sale instead. I'm sorry but the movie deserves better than the only comment posted, bad as the movie is.If your kids like soccer and you don't mind some off color jokes this isn't a bad movie to get if you can find it. As stated the movie is well within the PG-13 rating.

I assumed this was a safe movie for kids, one about a young girls soccer team. Well, it WAS about the soccer team but it also had numerous sex jokes and innuendos, along with a lot of profanity and just plain sleazy remarks. Whoever wrote this script must be a real sleazebag. I should have noticed the PG-13 label, but somehow missed it. That would have tipped me off. For those who disagree with my remarks, tell me why they had to rate it PG-13 if it is such a sweet and innocent film??? .The main kid in here is a foul-mouthed brat, too. Rodney Dangerfield, the adult star of this prize-winner, has some funny lines but the general tone of this "kids" movie turned me off, big-time.Do not show this to your little girls.

This is going to sound crazy to most of you, but here it goes. Ladybugs is one of a handful of films that made me want to be a film maker. Seriously! I was 14 when I saw Ladybugs for the first time on video. Once I watched it, I watched it again. Something about the movie interested me to be a storyteller myself. The direction, the story, even the location of the film inspired me to start writing, acting, and begin taking film classes. Something about this feel good movie made me want to make movies myself. At the time, Jonathan Brandis just started acting himself. HE had done the Never Ending Story a few years before and was an up and coming actor. A month ago, Jonathan Brandis was found dead in his LA apartment. Though I never met the man, nor worked on any of his films, his "legacy" if you can call it that, had left a mark. His talents end on such a short note, it is unfair that his best work will never be seen. Even though he has left some good and bad movies behind, I recall most of his work as work of talent and joy.

***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** You wouldn't guess what the movie was about when you heard the name "ladybugs." You'd think it would be a story about ladybugs, but it isn't. It is called ladybugs because that is the name of the soccer team. It is a girls soccer team. The coach played as Rodney Dangerfield, has a son named Matthew who has to watch one of the girls soccer games. He watches the game and also has a big crush on one of the girls named Kimberly. The ladybugs play a really bad game, and Matthew who watches the whole thing tells his dad what he would do if he played. Then that causes his dad to let Matthew play disguised as a girl because he wants a winning team and wants to keep it a secret from everyone. The next game he starts playing and changes his name from Matthew to Martha. Everyone thinks he's a girl, and he helps everyone out. The ladybugs become a winning soccer team because of him. Then one day Kimberly comes to his house, and he has to change from a guy to girl. She watches T.V. with him, but then Matthew's mom comes home so he keeps having to change from Matthew to Martha to his mom and Kimberly. Then his mom finds out that he was pretending to be a girl, and makes him quit soccer. Then the coach reveals to them that Martha is Matthew, and the girls can no longer have him on their team. You'll laugh really hard when you see it. I'd recommend it to everyone except I think more girls would like it then guys. It's a really funny movie, they have to keep anyone from knowing Matthew is on the team, if you haven't seen it see it. If it's ever on T.V. watch it with friends, they should enjoy it.
