Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: After Todd enters the dressing room with the large breasted blonde woman, he begins smiling and making faces at his brother Alan through the two-way mirror. Although Todd does this behind her back, she would obviously be able to see what he is doing in their reflection since they are both facing the mirror. more

30 minutes too thong..., 19 July 2002
Author: Samantha

The mind numbing dream sequences are so bad that it's hard to believe anyone can make it through them to watch what more of this movie lives on the other side. What is will surely disappoint. Bad acting, bad directing, and bad bikinis add up to a lousy bikini movie. If the dream sequences aren't the worst example of big screen directing, the film's final sequence is. In it, the snobby ex-fiancee is humiliated when her dress is torn off, revealing she wears a girdle, in front of her hardbody bikini clad replacement. Sounds almost funny, except the scene comes off about as funny, and looks more like, a mugging. Nothing to see hear folks..
