Very Funny 'Tits n Ass' 80's Movie
ir44528 February 2005
Truly a masterpiece of its genre!

Beautiful women and timeless comedy with plenty of tits and ass on display all in an 80's resort setting.

This is in a similar strain to a 'Porky's' or 'Revenge of the Nerds' but with less crudity, a simpler (and very funny) humour, a soap-opera style running plot and much better women.

Like a teenage cross between a 'Carry on' movie, 'Saved by the Bell', and 'Buttman in Budapest' - "Perfection!"

If you need something funny and light to splice up a movie night then you can't go wrong with this.

You don't need to have seen any of the previous movies in the series to understand or enjoy it.

Very easy to watch, funny, and although obscure its well worth tracking down.

Not bad , but keep your expectations low
lazarillo20 August 2014
This is one of the last films of the (somewhat) famous Israeli "Lemon Popsicle" series. By this time the plotting had largely gone out the window as well as some of the more successful comedy bits. The character development and acting had become pretty much a complete afterthought. And the three male characters had lost a lot of their adolescent appeal since the actors here are all pushing 30 (hard) and far from being awkward virgins, they manage to get laid more than probably ANYONE did during this era (which judging from the cars and music seems to be the early to mid 60's).

The plot has the three ever-horny protagonists hanging out on the beach where the fat guy, "Hughie" is renting out the trunk of his father's Mercury to rutting couples. After crashing the car into a tree, they all have to take jobs at a summer resort where all the females (maids, guests, etc.) are sexually insatiable. The main protagonist "BenjI" is (as usual) torn between two lovers, a hot girl he just broke up (Sonja Martin), who shows up at the resort with her family to meet her new wealthy fiancée, and another hot girl (Sissi Liebold) who is pursuing him. His two friends try to help him out by kidnapping and tying up the fiancée and taking his hot-to-trot pursuer off his hands. . .

One area where this film definitely does succeed is that the girls in this are really attractive (although only one of the three males is) and they manage to efficiently get pretty much all of them completely naked, the one exception strangely being Sybille Rauch (as a hotel guest with a big dog), who had the most racy scenes in the earlier "Hot Bubblegum: Lemon Popsicle 3" and who would become a hardcore porn star that same year! Generally though, if the early entries in this series resemble the sexual frustration and adolescent angst of "The Last American Virgin" (which was basically a modern-day American remake of these films), this film resembles a lot of Golan-Globus American sex comedies of the mid to late 80's like "Hot Resort", "Private Resort", "Hot Chili", etc. where that is secondary at best and almost the entire emphasis is on female nudity, softcore sex scenes, and general brain-dead frivolity. But if you shut your mind off and keep your expectations low, it's not that bad

The Lemon Popsicle Series:Part 7.
morrison-dylan-fan19 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Staring my viewing of the 7 disc Lemon Popsicle box set on Monday,I got set to finish the week by watching the final movie in the set. Finding the 6th to be a terrible entry in the series,I got set to find out what note the final would hit.

The plot:

During the summer season,Hughie makes cash by renting the backseat of his dads (who is away on holiday) truck to couples. Letting his pals Bobby and Benzi hang out at the family pad. Finding the pad to be in ruins when he walks in on Bobby and Benzi with some ladies,Hughie's troubles start to pile up,when he smashes his dads truck. Desperate to raise cash for the repairs,Benzi,Hughie and Bobby go to get jobs at a hotel.

View on the film:

Made with a crew that had no connection to any other LP,editor/director Walter Bannert & cinematographer Hanus Polak tape the series to a new low,where all of the 50's/60's charm of the franchise is burnt up for a grotty Video appearance. While giving the flick a small return to the sexy antics of the past films,the screenplay by Anton Moho hacks away at the franchise,which includes horribly changing the background to the most distinctive scenes in the first film,as the lemon Popsicle's finally melt away.

By now, you know what you get Warning: Spoilers
This seventh movie of the Israeli "Lemon Popsicle" movie series came out 9 years after the first, so it was roughly one film per year. That is also why none of the humor is really new and the stories are nothing that hasn't been there before. Katzur is on his way to finding the true love for the 2326727th time and he also has all the dramatic moments. Noy is in there for the comedy exclusively and Sagall is a mix of both. The latter was not in the sixth movie, but here he is back. Also, later on he played in Spielberg's "Schindler's List". This movie, which runs for 80 minutes roughly, also has Leonard Lansink in the cast. For German audiences he may be a familiar name because of his work in Wilsberg. The writer from this 7th film also wrote many Wilsberg episodes, probably not a coincidence. And Walter Bannert, the director, has also a long list of German television projects in his resumé. Sibylle Rauch may also be known to some German-speaking watchers. Sonja Martin probably is not, but she is a bit of a regular in this movie series.

This film has all the usual ingredients: beach action, flirting, making out, some nudity, some pseudo drama (intrigue on alleged cheating) and the known trio (romantic, chaotic, Casanova). Not any character development at all anymore. One of the girls looked like Betty from the Flintstones movie in a scene early in the film. The highlight of the film is the music once again. Many known songs were used here, such as "La Bamba", "Great Balls of Fire" (also in movie number 6), "Volare". The sixth movie took place mostly on a yacht, this one has many scenes in a hotel. My personal highlight was the wonderful "Save the Last Dance for Me" at the end. IMDb lists the original language as German, but I have doubts here. Lots of dubbing for sure in this movie, at least the main characters.

Lemon Popsicle 7
BandSAboutMovies23 March 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I mean, at this point I feel like I may have written one of these movies I've seen so many of them. Even the description - Hughie, Bobbi and Benny are looking forward to a summer of hot girls when Johnny's parents leave him alone in the house - could be any of the other Lemon Popsicle movies.

At this point, none of the original creative team worked on this, with Anton Moho writing the script and Walter Bannert - yes, the same man who directed the rough as hell youth fascism movie The Inheritors - directing.

Sibylle Rauch, who has shown up in these movies since Hot Bubblegum, is back as one of the many objects of lust. She's also in Alpha City and plenty of adult films after this. As for Young Love, well, Huey's has a 1972 Mercury Montego that he wrecks and that's the central issue in this movie and why the boys work in a hotel, but this is supposed to be about high school students from the late 50s. So is everyone in this in their late 20s?

At least the soundtrack is bigger this time, with Gene Vincent, Dean Martin, Del Shannon, the Ronettes, Chubby Checker, Bill Haley and the Comets, Paul Anka and more. But seriously, I still have Summertime Blues to get through as well as Lemon Popsicle: The Party Goes On, which came out after Cannon, but I'm nothing if not a masochist.

why are these movies so popular?
joeshoe8910 March 2005
this is a kinda foreign (israeli? German?) PORKY'S with almost NO funny moments no one seems sure of the time frame most cars and clothes reek 50's and a lot of the music is 50's rock but the main car is not a caddy but a sixties mercury cougar and some of the songs are very much sixties rock while the young girls are very attractive esp with their frequent nude scenes the guys are UGLY and how they get these girls being unfunny morons that they are is a complete mystery but even harder to understand is that there might have been 6 more of these stinkers? this kind of teen sex comedy is best made in America the proof is right here if you just watch it

Young Love was a so-so Lemon Popsicle entry
tonyvmonte-5497316 October 2023
After sitting out the last Lemon Popsicle entry, Jonathan Sagall returns as Bobby along with Yiftach Katzur as Benny (instead of Benji though he's referred to as that at least once), and Zachi Noy as Huey. Huey wrecks his car so to get money to fix it, he and his friends take a job at a hotel. At that place, an old girlfriend of Benny's named Sandy (Sonja Martin) also appears though she's not too thrilled about that. She was previously Renee in Private Popsicle. Sibylle Rauch from Hot Bubblebum also appears though not as completely naked as before. To tell the truth, the situations here are perhaps a bit more silly, too much so for my own tastes. And the romance isn't as compelling as much, either. At least the music score moves beyond the usual '50s and '60s tunes to the early '70s. So on that note, Young Love is worth a look and not much else.
