Summer Job (1989)
7/10
Decent late 1980's beach comedy! *contains brief spoilers*

While not the best beach / "teen" comedy out there, it is one that I watch with fondness. One thing that I like about the film is the locations where it was shot. Only knock are the some of the "night" scenes in which they use blue filter. One scene in particular are the couple playing / exploring out on a jetty...just before the scene where the fat guy is assaulted by the big woman in the hotel room. None of the acting is Oscar material but that's okay. It's one of the movies where you just "switch off" and enjoy. Most of the male cast are chasing after Kathy, who doesn't fancy any of them. The chubby guy who wants to become (and then becomes) a lifeguard is the one who gets Kathy in the end while the "Old Pro Bob" (LOL) gets snagged by Cookie! I have this film on Videodisc (remember those?!) and it will never leave my collection.
