Rampant, indiscriminate female nudity, drug use, alcohol abuse, casual sex and party, party, party! It was the 80s, and times were good. Political correctness and its joy crushing movement wasn't even a glint in our eye. Oh, if only it were still so.Movies like this were released by the dozen in the 80s. The Cinemax schedule was filled with them. That said, 'Spring Break' is one of the more mainstream teen sex comedies of the era. The nudity is sparse for the genre and the other shenanigans rather tame. The story is basic, and the plot mechanics rather clunky, but there are several charming performances and the music is a blast.If you like this genre, you'll like 'Spring Break'.

First off, this movie is a decent, watchable teen sex comedy from the early 80's. Sure the jokes are a little lame by today's standards and it looks dated but this movie brought back memories of mid-80's Spring Breaks. It is fairly similar to what I experienced Spring Breaking in Panama City, Florida. The wet T-shirt contests, hot legs and hot buns contests, the clubs with pools and the emcees narrating the contests. It's all in here. So if you're looking for a good time capsule of 80's spring break, this is it.There's a little T&A here, nothing serious. The strangest part about this movie are the four leads who end up having to share a hotel room, the two cool guys and the two nerds. Although they are all about scoring with the ladies, they do give off a very homo/fem vibe. Almost like watching the chicks from Sex and the City at spring break. For example, right after they all meet the cool Italian guy strips down to a speedo with his pubes going all over. Then the next morning they are all crammed in the little bathroom, one showering, one brushing teeth, one shaving and one dropping a deuce on the toilet. Then when they go out they all stay together drinking and hugging, go to the bathroom together, etc. They act more like girls going out rather than guys. Maybe the movie was written by a woman.The main focus of the movie is the nerdiest one trying to lose his virginity to a pretty nerd girl who has a hot body and loves video games. The movie is nice in that the cool guys give tips to the nerds and try to help them get laid. This is a feel good movie for sure.Bottom line: A step back in time to what it was really like in Florida at Spring Break in the early 80's. Mildly amusing and entertaining. Highly Watchable when nothing else good is on.

After 25 years of seeing this movie in parts on HBO, I just went on Crackle to watch this in one sitting for the first time. The plot basically concerns four roommates at a hotel-Nelson (David Knell), Adam (Perry Lang), Stu (Paul Land), and O.T. (Steve Bassett)-out to have fun. Since this was rated R, you probably know what kind of fun they're out to have. Anyway, at least two of the guys-O.T. and Nelson-have something of a romance with a stunning rock singer named Joan (Corrine Alphen) and a cute-blonde-from-next-door type named Susie (Jayne Modean), respectively. There's also an awful subplot about Nelson's politician stepfather trying to punish him but that doesn't ruin things until the last 20 minutes. Anyway, while I liked those romances I just mentioned, especially that between Susie and Nelson, I wouldn't be amiss in mentioning that the main reason I saw this then as well as now was because of the female nudity that I expected from the rating. And both times I wasn't disappointed when I watched that early scene of Stu and O.T. just wanting to bag those sexy skanks played by Nikki Fritz and Rhonda Flynn. In fact, I watched that scene of Nikki and Rhonda disrobing twice! And the funniest line came after that when either Nelson or Adam said, "Those were Playboy tits!" Most of the rest of the picture wasn't as funny though there was another amusing moment when Nelson has trouble finding Susie's hotel room after getting some Coke cans from a machine with a great underscoring from .38 Special's "Caught Up in You". Of the rest of the supporting cast, I only recognized one Richard B. Shull as some sleazeball trying to close the hotel inhabited by the cast. He wasn't very funny here unlike when I first saw him in "Splash" all those years ago. So in summation, Spring Break was no great shakes but if you're in the mood for some T & A, it fills the need.

This movie is watched best when served drunk! The idea of some average guys becoming friends and having fun and hooking up with hot chicks in Florida is a dream every average guy can appreciate. The chicks are hot and exposed - no complaint here. How about the music - if you're a fan of 80s music - you'll get your fill. This is probably one of the first movies that features an extended Wet T-Shirt contest - now how cool is that? OK, the acting mostly blows with some occasional funny lines and the plot is sub-par - but who cares!!! When your drunk, the other features of this movie are fun and cool to drink to. I give it a 10 out of 10 on the beer drinking movies rating.
