1 out of 5 stars Couldn't even get through it........2007-05-11

This movie does not deserve too many words -- it's largely a forgetable, vanity project made by Susanna Hoff's mother, Tamar Hoffs, for her pop singer daughter. It's vacuous and difficult to sit throgh -- at least Beack Blanket Bingo had those Annette and Frankie duets interspersed between the weak plots. And that extended scene with a half-naked Susanna looking in the mirror while Aretha Franklin's Respect plays in the bckground. Respect? No wonder she never got any again after making this atrocious waste of celluloid.

This movie was not what I expected it to be. I'm an Ontkean fan, and well there just wasn't enough of him in this movie. Didn't enjoy it all that much.

Susanna Hoffs, the lead singer of the bangles, plays Molly, a college student, who on the last day is trying to find that one truely amazing love. Her friends, one played by joan cusack, who in this movie is hilareous, and slightly resembles boy george, but anyhow is hilareous, are there to help. At one point Molly is mislead by a singer in a band she likes, and her friends get accedentally arrested for something they didn't do.

3 out of 5 stars Babes, one Bangle, Bikinis. . .how can you loose?.......2005-10-16

OK, for a start, this movie isn't the turd that some reviewers would have you believe. By that I don't mean to imply that it is a good film, far from it, but it certainly does not stink. Tamar Simon Hoffs wrote this film as a vehicle for her daughter, Bangle rocker Susannah Hoffs. I suppose it was supposed to propell Susannah to movie-stardom; it didn't.


However, all of the major cast members turn in perfomances that are actually quite good given the material they had to work with. Joan Cusack, likely the only person in this film that you could pick out of a line-up, as actually quite good as the film-obsessed Gina. Dedee Pfeiffer, sister to Michelle Pfeiffer, is super-cute as air-head Val. Killer (James Shanta) and C.J. (John Terlesky) are typical surfer dudes.


That brings us to Susannah Hoffs. I was Bangle obsessed when I was in graduate school (yes, I said GRADUATE school). I thought the Bangles were (are, actually) a fine band; sort of what the Beatles might have been if they had been girls. I really wanted to see this film when it first came out but somehow I missed it. So, in 2005, I saw it for the first time. I'll admit freely that if Bangle Susannah had not been in the film I wouldn't have bothered. Can she act? Yes. Is she very good? No. Again, that doesn't mean she stinks! Most actors in most prime time shows are not what I would call great! Could Susannah hold her own on a show like Friends? Sure.


Here's the plot in a nutshell: Molly (Susannah) loves C.J. but C.J. loves to surf. Molly tries to get through to C.J. but C.J. loves to surf. Frustrated, Molly goes after a washed-up '60s rocker from some band called the Rhinos. Surprisingly, the former Rhino has the moral fortitude not to take advantage of young Molly (who is seriously hot, by the way) but she ends up trapped on the balcony of his hotel room when a former lover shows up.


Molly calls Gina and Val for help but they are promptly mistaken for hookers and arrested. They don't look like hookers to me, they won't look like hookers to you, just go with it. Molly manages to escape from the balcony just as the other girls are being loaded into the paddy wagon. Now, Molly must come up with bail money ASAP because tomorrow is graduation day for these Pacifica College seniors.
