The kind of excrescence that makes you wonder if the Taliban, the French and all the other foreigners who whine about the awfulness of Hollywood "product" might actually have a point.

Coyote Ugly
Overview
Graced with a velvet voice, 21-year-old Violet Sanford heads to New York to pursue her dream of becoming a songwriter only to find her aspirations sidelined by the accolades and notoriety she receives at her "day" job as a barmaid at Coyote Ugly. The "Coyotes" as they are affectionately called tantalize customers and the media alike with their outrageous antics, making Coyote Ugly the watering hole for guys on the prowl.
Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The acting is amateurish, the dialogue is painful to hear and the plot is about as spontaneous as the Republican National Convention.
A talented young cast in service of a project that's every bit as shrewd as it is shrill and silly.
It goes down easy, like a wine-cooler shot with a chaser of Yoo-Hoo.
All hope is lost.
