Don't listen to the negative reviews
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
A fantastic movie! I really liked it! Too bad they haven't released this movie on a wide screen FULL HD BluRay! I hope they will in the near future though. I think this is the only movie with a Menage A Trois with a happy ending I've found so far. Most movies about Menage A Trois usually end up with a break-up, cheating or other strange things. Why won't the Hollywood directors make more movies like this one? I like how the trio couple was shown having fun, dancing in clubs, drinking, going to the beach, a very beautiful scene. There's just one thing which the director could have added to this movie... making the 2 girls kiss each other and all but anyway even without that, the movie is a masterpiece which deserves to be released on BluRay, for being ONE of a kind!
well well well... Hannah is cute...Quennessen (R.I.P) is well-shaped...both are hot as hell (1982!). But i assure you i can download flicks with more skin and equally pretty faces from the net, without being bothered with postmodern artsy concerns and aiming too high for what essentially is a parade of nude bodies. Ingredients: exotic locations on some paradise beach; two female actors who might very well be from a glossy lesbian pictorial; a gummy-faced male lead who might be a gay cover model and would (probably) make a good TS/TV with a little work... Then pretend the above ingredients to be meant to impart a "deep lesson" or whatever; please... The premises are as fake as it can get and so is everything that follows. Please don't tell me that such as Hannah & Quennessen naked in their best shape fooling around with a gummy-faced gay cover model represent anything REAL...you watch it, and in your subconscious you wait for them to pull a chewing gum, an aftershave, a debt scheme or at least a tampon to advertise. When is last time you saw something similar? Now if the male lead had been Sid Justice, the female lead Sensational Sherry and the third man Dusty Rhodes, THEN at least you'd understand they had meant it in jest, but here they meant it in earnest; and it's not Shakespeare, either. Poor excuse for an escapist dream as well...now if he had beer belly, the face of Robert Davi and she looked like miss Beulah from POrky's, then we might talk about it. Glossy, pretentious nude beach informercial for simple minds pretending they're aiming high. 3/10 because of the skin.
I saw this movie originally over 20 years ago. I have never forgotten it. If that is a gage of a movie, then I guess it is a "10." But this one certainly has flaws.I don't care about the flaws of this movie, though. I have wanted to go to Greece since seeing this movie 20 years ago. The landscapes and scenery are breathtaking. That alone makes this movie worth seeing.I also liked the sexual adventurousness of the film. Not from a "it makes me horny" perspective but just the openness that the characters have. There are dumb, trite parts to the love story, but when you are basking on the beaches and sun of Greece, who cares?
Stupid film. An American couple (Peter Gallagher and Daryl Hannah) take a vacation to the beautiful Greek islands. There they meet a French girl named Lina (Valerie Quennessen) who falls for Gallagher. Rather than fight with him over Hannah she suggests they share him (!!!). Just like real life huh? This is just a Playboy fantasy for straight men. For instance--there are countless nude shots of Hannah and Quennessen but none of Gallagher (only once from a great distance). And what straight guy wouldn't fantasize about having two beautiful women as lovers on a Greek island? As a gay guy I couldn't really identify with that and the movie comes off as absolute drivel. Yes, the scenery is stunning and all three of them have attractive bodies--but the plot is silly beyond words. There's no talk about STDs, AIDS (it WAS around in 1982) or anything realistic. We just get a seemingly endless travelogue of Greece. It gets boring pretty quickly.The acting--well who really cares? No one is gonna watch this for the acting (they're all pretty bad BTW). The only interesting thing about this is that director/writer Randal Kleiser thought he was making a serious movie! He said he cut out a sex scene between the three leads because it wasn't necessary for the plot. Ummmmmm-what plot? Boring and stupid. It gets a 5 for the absolutely gorgeous scenery and a really nice soundtrack.
