Cheesy but good. I used to watch this movie as a young adult and really loved it, especially since Rick Springfield was in it. As an adult, I still love it. It just a fun no brainer kind of movie. There is some nudity (Rick's behind) and some awkward sexual innuendos/content so I wouldn't recommend this for anyone under 15 or 16. One of the best parts is when Rick is in military dress whites. He looks really handsome. The music is also really good.
Rick Springfield at his best singing Love Somebody! When I first saw this in the Theater, when Rick started singing Love Somebody, I jumped out of my seat! It was Rick at some of his best work ever. And his work as an actor really gets overlooked as the female lead playing opposite him was just aweful. She is the reason the film didn't get good reviews. But Rick was amazing, and his mucis is second to none! RIck should be in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. I gave this film 5 stars because of Ricks music and his acting, which both were fantastic!
Blast from the Past I'm a long-time Rick Springfield fan, so this DVD was a must-have. I remember seeing it in theaters years ago. A great deal of fun seeing it again! -- JK
Rick's so so movie I saw this in the movie theatre when it came out and couldn't believe Rick did this mediocre movie at the height of his career. It's just okay and somewhat embarassing in parts. Also the lead actress was totally miscast...I had trouble believing that his character would fall for her...Rick could have done better than this but I bought it on DVD when it came out being a Rick fan...I LOVE Rick on GH when he appears though!
The Music Soundtrack's better First, let me just say I'm a HUGE Rick Springfield fan. I used to watch General Hospital in the '80's just for HIM. But this movie was a waste of his acting talents. The music soundtrack is much better. Save your money on the movie and order that instead.
