    Based on a novel by Anne Rice, author of Interview with the Vampire, this unfunny sex comedy is only worth catching if you're sure you can stomach the sight of Dan Aykroyd in bondage gear. Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell play a pair of investigators going “undercover“ at an S&M resort run by Dana Delany, while Strictly Ballroom star Paul Mercurio (Where is he now? Hiding from embarrassment, we suspect) wanders around in something resembling a nappy. A career low for Pretty Woman director Garry Marshall and just about everyone else involved.

    • Radio Times
  • Drear, unbelievably bad comedy; the actors seem embarrassed, as well they might, and the director is obviously uncomfortable with any fantasy more explicit than his Pretty Woman.

    Laugh along with this

    I didn't hold out a lot of hope for this movie, but was pleasantly surprised to find myself laughing along with its farcical plot.

    Cops Sheila (Rosie O'Donnell) and Fred (Dan Aykroyd) are sent to the fantasy sex island to retrieve the photographs taken by Elliott Slater (Paul Mercurio)of a diamond smuggler. Unfortunately the diamond smuggler also wants the photos back and sends in assassins.

    This offers an adult comedy with some rather well sign posted twists.

    Dire

    There is only one word to describe this film, 'dire', although this is probably to keep the american audiences happy meaning that most of the book didn't make it into the film. Watch it if only to see why Paul Mercurio Hollywood career suddenly nosedived after gaining fame in Strictly Ballroom.
