Review
The title leaves nothing to the
imagination. This is sexploitation disguised as girl-power. Or was
that vice versa? The film was financed by Roger Corman and written by
LGBT feminist Rita Mae Brown, so the power-struggle behind the
scenes is almost palpable. And the level of irony is certainly open
for interpretation. The
director was Amy Holden Jones, who later found success as penner of
the family movie Beethoven (!) and the somewhat more lewd
Indecent Proposal.
