Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

After failing to get a DVD of Mario Bava's Gothic Horror The Whip And The Body to work on any of my DVD players,I decided,the after having spent an hour frustratingly trying to get the DVD to work,that I would instead watch an easy-going movie.With having found auteur film maker Russ Meyer's original Nudie Cutie period to be one that was light and pretty easy to watch,I decided o take a look at Meyer's last ever feature film visit to his Nudie-Cutie era.The plot:Starting in San Francisco and travelling across Eurpore,the film takes a look at some of the most successful/popular go-go dancing/strip clubs in the world,with the movie makers interviewing a number of the club's biggest dancers about what gives them the adrenalin rush to dance.Along with looking at the go-go dancing/strip clubs,the movie also takes a look at the behind the scenes of of the film that led to Russ Meyer leaving the Nudie-Cutie era behind:Lorna.View on the film:Checking a bonus interview on the DVD of the movie,I was surprised to hear writer/cinematography/editor/co-producer/director Russ Meyer say that he hated the film,due to the only reason that he made the movie, (in 5 days!) being that his then-wife (and co-producer) Eve was moaning to him about how their last movie had not made as much at the box office as had originally been hoped.Whilst the 15 minutes or so of re-used footage from Meyer's earlier,near Silent Nudie-Cutie Europe In The Raw shows the very limited nature of the production,Meyer reveals that the titles he has made after finishing his Nudie-Cutie era have had a big impact on his sharp ear for the soundtrack of the film,with the (voiced over) interviews being backed by a terrific Surf Rock score from a band called The Aladdins and a witty narration by John Furlong,which all help to keep the movie moving at a quick pace.Along with the soundtrack,Meyer also includes some very interesting screen test forage from his first non-Nudie-Cutie movie Lorna,that along with acting as a nice behind the scenes section on the film,also displays how much Meyer has excitingly moved from his original roots.

This is another great put on movie by Russ Meyer. Nobody but nobody makes a film like Russ Meyer although I am sure many have tried but nobody even comes close to combining all the elements so skillfully as Russ did in his movies.Almost all of Russ Meyer's movies are put ons. I am sure Russ intended them just that way. It was his idea of winking at his audience which probably are mostly men. But the true fact is that Meyer's movies not only made women objects of desire and physically awesome and intimidating but in comparison to the men in his movies were far more intelligent than the men in them, and this was something Russ did long before anyone ever heard of the women's movement.

I was very excited to see this movie because of the title but it took me a really long time to find it on DVD. It is quite good and you do get to see quite a lot of female nudity I was really thinking there would be more. With a name like that you would really expect to see lots of breasts all the way through, not just sometimes so I want to write this review to warn people that it's not quite what you might be expecting. However, once you accept this it is pretty funny and not rubbish just not quite what I was hoping for. Also the women look a bit the same, having said that they do have great hair and shoes. Since watching this film I have really got into watching films with girls in high heels so in some ways, though it wasn't quite what it could have been it did open me up to new ways of appreciating the female form.

Hilarious double-entendre narration (subtle as a sledgehammer) over "mod rock" music. Thoroughly pneumatic cast and hypnotizing choreography.
