I've read comments regarding protracted love scenes and John Phillip Law's "jaybird" nakedness .. yet the VHS I purchased doesn't show any of that .. we're talking tame by today's standards .. and if the money bed scenes and the quick in the shower closeups count as the nudity and sexual content .. then I guess that's it .. I went into this with a whole different expectation .... I was kinda hoping for more "The Love Machine" type adult content and what was in this film was the furthest thing from it .. this was fun and campy and too funny at points to not love it ..
I loved this movie ... the sets the score the actors everything .. John Phillip Law is perfect in this role, like it was tailor made for him .. and the acting abilities of Ms. Marisa Mell are left to be desired .. but still.. it was great and I loved it ...
I highly recommend this film to anyone who wants an escape from dull, boring and the monotony of the world's issues and wants to be entertained, pleased and have you rooting for our anti-social anti-hero at the end ..
Too bad there wasn't a sequel .. there was so much more they could have done with the ending .. and I'd have to agree with someone else who said it before .. John Phillip Law has the best mwaaa aaaa aaaa of anyone I've ever heard .. it was hysterically perfect ..
Ms. Mell's tiny tiny tiny flat 3 pounds above organ failure stomach muscles are enough to make any woman stop eating .. she's sooooooo tiny and physically dynamic, you wonder how Law didn't crush her by lying on top of her .. but it was hot to watch their excessive face eating kisses in the car on their way down to his secret lair ...
And, who could not agree more, that the steamiest scene in the movie involved Mell's emerging from the pool to join a hoooooooooooooootttt hottie looking Law in tight red pants and bare feet with his shirtless perfectly formed torso get down on his knees and invite her to sit in his lap and then he carefully places the emeralds on her skin counting each one out as he arranged them around her neck ... only to have them do more face eating and then dive back into that incredible lava rock looking pool ..
The bad guys are so bad that you feel sorry for them .. except Valmont's blonde bimbo phone answering girl .. I wanted to see her thrown from the plane ..
This movie definitely warrants 9/10 in my book .. it would have made 10/10 if they showed the "jaybird" bodies of Mell & Law ..
