It's Back to the Beach writ saucy.January 25, 2003
Sharp satire. Great fun.January 01, 2000
It definitively skewers the false innocence of American pop culture on the eve of the countercultural deluge.November 16, 2007
Cool original camp. This is a fun little movie.November 18, 2002
If this wearying exercise in camp, rib-nudging double entendres, rhyming gollyspeak and groovy-daddio! set design wrapped around a wan murder mystery sounds like an Annette Funicello movie gone to hell, it at least succeeds on one level.January 01, 2000
Awkward combination of garish set decoration and muffled humor.August 01, 2003
It's all enjoyable enough, but it's played so broadly that it loses whatever impact it might have had.August 14, 2014
Immaculate execution in every detail of one poor conception after another... uninspired, arrogant, and lazy.January 01, 2000
Saddled with both a script and direction that never comes near the wit or cleverness in Busch's own performance.February 14, 2001
It's too much filmed theater to come alive fully on the screen.January 01, 2000
Good belly laughs amid lower-key giddiness.
