Hot Times

I can't believe this was made by the guy who did the Breathless remake and The Big Easy. This seventies American Grattifi film is something of a wonder. It's of better quality than you think. When I first saw it, I just remembered it as being a sleazy 80's 4/10 movie, then it took a couple of viewings to realize it was more. The first view, I don't think I ever got to the end. Our protagonist, Archie, has got it HARD. He's undersexed, his friends go out with better looking girls, where Archie has to make do with 6/10 sorts. His Sister is hot and horny, which of course aggravates him, almost to the point of exploding, though this isn't the only time of the movie wee feel this. He likes to perv on her too. Archie is having to wait, to go all the way with his girl. At one point he ends up on a porn film where he's on top of a young hottie, where for Archie, they may'be some light at the end of the tunnel, yet. So we don't have a badly made film, that's inspirational. You could re title this film as "The Young And Sexually Frustrated".

What makes this movie so fun and enjoyable to watch is the constant "beeping" in the movie. Almost every time that one of the characters say a "bad" word,you hear this beep,like in the Jerry Springer show but then much better and much funnier. The story of course is inferior,but who cares! the acting is surprisingly good,especially by Archie Anders and the crazy taxi driver.

The music during the movie is comic,underlined by those beeps and other sound effects. It also shows the city of New York in a time when it was a dump.

Watch out for the polish jokes sequence for some fine laughs,although the entire movie is pretty funny.

PS: Watch it with some friends,beer and nuts! guaranteed success

Assumed this was more so of a raunchy sex comedy similar to Porky's, however it is far more gratuitous with its explicit scenes and is closer to a soft core film than a teen sex feature film. More skin shown than expected, as it starts from the start.

As a plot, it is very simply and silly. About Archie being overly eager and desperate in trying to score, where we see him go from one unfunny scene to another. What people nay have found funny or comedic back then has certainly changed in today's day and age. Nothing was generally funny, more so juvenile and severely forced.

Several instances, we see Archie manage to be involved in situations such as hiding in the cheerleaders' locker room after a basketball game, where were see the women undress then have their showers, ending up on a set of an adult film (with Ronnie), to even going on the rooftop to spy on his sister in the bathroom. Then somehow in the end at New Years Time Square, he lucks out and gets with another woman where she offers to take him to her house. Bizarre ending with him passing out in the elevator.

Overall the film is relatively short enough but it's clear the skin scenes are thrown in to distract us from the fact the film isn't very good. It's a parody but without any laughs.

i admit it i've seen this movie and i'm probably the only one!! the only reason i rented it was cause the box was 8 times bigger than any other box!!!! this is the kinda of movie you only rent on a dare!

funny, fancy talking, a lot of hair and a background microphone appearing on the screen!

what do you need more? fortunately the movie had a good ending.

not bad at all for lovers of this genre.
