Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFilmed during the gas shortage in the late 1970s, and the crew did not have enough money to transport all their equipment and cast from Brooklyn to southern New Jersey. Writer Marino Amoruso used his father's connections with the Brooklyn mafia to supply a half-dozen limousines and trucks to bring the whole production team to the set.
- Crazy creditsA photo of George Washington is hung on the wall, and the end credits roll call list George Washington as "Himself."

Featured review
A group of young people arrive on the beach for fun and frivolity.
Many of them have ridiculous, over-the-top Brooklyn accents.
Lots of "HEYYY", "UHHH?", double negatives, and characters with names like Mikey and Frankie. It's like an Andrew Dice Clay set, cleaned up.
Their neighbours are, perhaps, supposed to be punk rocker types - at least that is how the guidos refer to them.
One of the cute Brooklyn girls seems improbably charmed by the quasi-punk types. They take her to meet their friends, who turn out to be even more obnoxious than they are. She doesn't seem to mind.
The movie has some musical scenes that for once aren't just a slog to sit through, and a lot of hot bikini babes - but no nudity. It's not really a *** comedy.
A relationship between a tough Brooklyn chick and one of the other guys actually turns into a kind of touching love story - at least in one scene.
There is an ill-advised chase sequence toward the end of the movie, which I didn't understand or appreciate.
Then the movie segues into a kind of gig on the beach, when the punk rock types play a mediocre song and the other cast members dance around with what looks like painful over-enthusiasm.
And that's it. No *** or nudity, but some romantic scenes. And nothing else to set this one apart, and certainly, nothing in particular to recommend it.
