[T]he success of Bar Girls is due as much to Hoang’s talent as it is to the new thinking at the Ministry of Culture and Information.

A 2-in-1 edition of the fresh and funny romantic comedy Bar Girls, featuring a group of women whose lives and loves mix and match in a Los Angeles bar. Based on Lauran Hoffman's stage play, the film focuses on the central characters Loretta, (Nancy Allison Wolfe) a smart yet insecure cartoon writer, and Rachel (Liza D'Agostino), a charming, commitment-shy actress. Together, they face their fear of past loves and pain and start anew.
