BlazeLime Strong and Moving!
Grimerlana Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Michael Ledo Mild mannered Bradley Brinkman (Steve Levitt) makes a deal with the devil and has a best selling "How To" book on being a yuppie and a new hunk body (John Allen Nelson). He never thought the deal was serious and now he is trying to welsh on a deal all the while living the good life he was locked out of before.Great idea and has been done in various ways. This film has poor execution and was even made after being a Yuppie was cool.Guide: No swearing, sex, or nudity. John Allen Nelson without his shirt in a shower.
AudreyToo I just adore this movie. It is in my category of 'Poundshop Classics' because it was discovered by an ex in a poundshop about 10 years ago. It is my second favourite movie in that category (after 'The Independent').I've never really understood why this film is not more of a well known 80's cult classic as it has everything a good 80's film should have: the costumes, the music, the effects and the self-referencing humour. The characters and casting are all ace - Hunk Golden surely has to be one of the best character names of all time!It is a silly, silly film and there's always time in my life for silly films.
Red-Barracuda A computer nerd makes a deal with a sexy she-devil to become a muscle-bound beach hunk.Hunk shares quite a similar idea to the one later used (copied?) in Bedazzled (2000), where we have a hopeless nerd given the chance to become cool by a super-sexy she-devil, with the result that he realises that it is more important to be yourself than superficially good-looking. In that later film we had Elizabeth Hurley turn in a mind-bogglingly seductive performance, in Hunk its Deborah Shelton who is somewhat convincing as a rather hot seductress. The leading ladies certainly are very important to the success of these films but they both also feature other decent performances. In this case it is John Allen Nelson who most impresses in a role that has him play a stereotypical hunky guy while remaining nerdish at heart. It's a good comical performance that works well alongside Shelton's glamorous seductress.While I wouldn't describe this as an especially funny film, it is definitely a likable one. It is much less moronic than quite a few of the teen comedies of its day and I think it stands up fairly well. It naturally has oodles of 80's cheese as well but that is pretty much a positive detail as far as I am concerned. All-in-all, a very fun film.
Joseph P. Ulibas Horrible movie. They must have been cranking out films like this every week during the mid to late 80's. A nerd makes a deal with the Devil so he could look all macho and studly. LAME. Nothing in this movie resembles the slightest notion of entertainment. I'm glad this movie has died and went to the great videotape graveyard. Gone and happily forgotten. Life is too short to waste on tripe like this. Rubbish. F.
