Suprisingly good plot. Entertaining


This is a low budget movie that has a surprisingly good plot for a movie like this. The acting is mostly horrible with a few good exceptions namely Irina Voronina as "Paradise" the ultra high maintenance, ball breaker and Mikos Zavros as Howard the casino owner. The rest of the female cast were hot but acting is obviously not their strong suit. Still, if you like campy flicks with hot naked chicks this one is better than most of it's kind.

My only other complaint is the twist ending. I guess it was the producer's way of leaving the door open for a sequel where they could scrap all but one member of the cast.

I liked it also. Director commentary says they were going to just leave the ending as happy but decided that why be traditional and put a twist on it.

The "twist" had no point. First of all, they showed the rape scene. So for her to say at the end.. and by the way, he didn't rape me.. didn't make any sense. If they were going to do that.. instead of that graphic rape scene in which she was definitly acting as if she was being raped, they should have just had him go for her.. her look tenative and fade to black with the next scene, her crying in her bedroom....

and besides, the casino owner was an unlikeable guy who was doing bad things anyway... they wouldn't have been able to set him up if he wasn't violating the gaming commission rules. And in the end, he ordered a hit on them, so it isnt like she did something to a guy who was innocent.

I mean it was Oceans 11 with tits and ass and a lot more Low tech... some seriously stale acting too... but a great bachelor party movie for sure.
