Title: Superchick (1973)
Post by: lester1/2jr on January 17, 2008, 10:04:15 AM
         doesn't cut it.  The director has no feel for this stuff.  It's sleazy when it should be cheesy and cheesy when it should be sleezy!  There is supposed to be wacka wacka guitar, not brady Bunch type incidental music.  The frequent comic bits are lame and the allegedly feminist message is utterly contrived.  The lead actress uses a double for the nude scenes and kisses her various suitors close mouthed.  This movie bears a strong resemblence to another mediocre flick of the same era "policewomen"  and even shares an actor, the mumbly guy who I'm guessing was cast in his respective roles because of he owned a boat.  either that or some director justs SEES him on a boat.  Some of the corny comic bits are mildly entertaining, but the best parts of the movie are probably the parts with no dialogue and silly music with the people playing tennis or swimming.  that's not much of a recommendation.  Check out "Snowballin" instead.

I've never seen "Hustler Squad" but it appears to be similarly dissapointing from what I've read.

I've seen HUSTLER SQUAD and it's extremely disappointing.

Hustler Squad was indeed disappointing but I thought Superchick was somewhat more entertaining. Its a mess no doubt but the cheese worked for me.
