The Iron Ladies tells the true story of a Thai male volleyball team that competes in the national championships in 1996 with a team consisting mostly of gays, transvestites and transgender players. Mon, who becomes the team leader, was a very talented player who constantly failed to be selected for various teams because he was gay. Jung, Mon's best friend, also experienced the same treatment but was always more optimistic about things. Their chance comes when Coach Bee is selected to put together a winning team, and she announces that the team will be open for all to tryout. But when the coach selects both Jung and Mon to be on the team, some of the more macho players resign in protest. In order to form a team, the coach asks Mon to find a few of his friends to join the team. They select Nong, a gay sergeant in the army; Pia, a trans star of a cabaret show; and Wit, whose parents don't know that their only son is gay.

Movie Reviews

L.A. Weekly - 9/10 by Chuck WilsonA surprise hit in Thailand, the film is nonetheless a reductive mess.
Dallas Morning News - 8/10 by Jane SumnerBroad, sentimental but ultimately irresistible.
Empire Magazine - 6/10 by Patrick PetersWhile the result may be shamelessly short on sophistication, it's still effortlessly entertaining.
BBC.com - 4/10 by Michael ThomsonJust because this is not an American sports movie does not mean that it's any freer of cliché, obviousness, and sentiment.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 4/10 by Jeff Vice[T]he film's rather narrow target audience may enjoy this bit of silly fluff. But many others outside that group will probably find it strained and even painful.
indieWire - 4/10 by Brandon JudellHilarious true story of Thailand's champion volleyball team that was composed of flaming drag queens
Compuserve - 3/10 by Harvey S. KartenHopelessly dated movie about transsexuals and gays who win over the bashers through volleyball
Greenwich Village Gazette - 3/10 by Eric LurioThe characters are likable, the story is interesting, and most importantly, it's FUN!
TV Guide - 3/10 by Maitland McDonaghIt's a frequently funny diversion that doesn't have a mean-spirited bone in its body.
User Review - 10/10 by Nichole Anne Ea funny film with a deep meaning... for me it's all about achieving your dreams even there is a discrimination when it comes to your sexuality...but of course don't forget the comedy!ehe^^
