A 21 ans, Violet Sanford rêve de devenir diva et de connaître la gloire. Elle quitte le foyer familial pour New York. De désillusions en échecs, elle a de moins en moins confiance en elle et ses espoirs de réussite éclatante s'amenuisent chaque jour. Acculée, elle accepte de travailler dans un bar country, célèbre pour ses serveuses aux allures provoquantes, le Coyote Ugly. Dans cet univers d'amazones dirigé par la séduisante Lil, Violet acquiert un certain sens du spectacle et une vraie popularité. (texte officiel du distributeur)

Coyote Ugly is one of those films that is formulaic through and through and riddled with one cliché after another, but that doesn't stop me from finding a free moment to watch it from time to time. I love returning to It to see Violet, Rachel and Cammie, who can properly turn it up behind and on the bar, overseen by the spirited Lil, who takes no shit. Add to that the likeable supporting characters of Kevin, Bill and Gloria, and it's an enjoyable half hour. Plus, who doesn't love the catchy song “Can't Fight the Moonlight” by LeAnn Rimes. A nicely made flick that, while it doesn't bring anything new to the table in terms of story and characters, is full of positive energy and always somehow entertains me.

This is simply a classic example of how the American dream collapses so much that it actually becomes a reality. This is a comedy without being funny, a romance that is boring and doesn't work because it is clear and predictable, with all the twists that are in the story. No, even for an afternoon screening, it seems long to me.
