Denise and Kill Shot /where Paramount??, April 25, 2001
By A Customer
HOT!!!read now ;ALL Denise Richards fans ,don't be suckered like so many have ,i won't give away the real stars in the movie AH BUT!! Denise Richards is not the Target of any madman except greedy bungholes at Paramount trying to make a buck using Denise Richards name. she is in the movie for oh about 75 to 90 seconds!!!!!! the movie has nothing to do with her..In my opinion ;Denise Richards is a very decent human being who has always did right by her fans, i am not sure why or if the cover is real or added.only Denise and Paramount knows the truth.But; bottom line ;Don't buy this movie if your looking for Denise,she is not their for long folks!!you blink, you missed her..

False advertising, October 27, 2002
The premise of this film centers around a restaurant owner who wants to put on together a volleyball team to challenge a championship v-ball team from up the beach. The reason he wants to do this is as a promotional stunt for his business. The catch is, he needs a former-Supermodel friend of his to be on the team so that the game will be televised on cable TV. Without her, no TV, no exposure and no $$$.
The fact that this is the plot is ironic due to the fact that Denise Richards is on the cover of the DVD. She is an extra in the film and takes up maybe 60 seconds worth of footage. She also has maybe 2 lines. The film was made in 1996, before she became relatively well-known. Putting her on the cover is nothing short of false-advertising. But, as in the plot of the film, the makers figured (after Richards became a star) that without her on the cover, the movie would not get any exposure or sales. They're probably right, but that does not excuse the false-advertising.
The movie, for what it is, is kind of a full-length feature of BAYWATCH. That's not altogether bad, considering that it is filled with beautiful women. Can't quite understand why it was rated "R", tho. There are 2 quick nude flashes (NOT of Richards), but I've seen much more than that on PG-13. So those who are looking for "R" rated versions of BAYWATCH will be disappointed.
The plot seems to incorporate more characters than Leo Tolstoy's WAR AND PEACE. This causes the movie to wander & meander a bit, but it's still decent in its character development. The acting is just barely adequate.
In the final analysis, this is a somewhat decent movie that uses mis-leading advertising to sell itself. I wish that I had read the other reviews before buying it. It never crossed my mind that Richards would not play a major role in the flick. Now that you've read this review, you'll know what you're getting should you choose to purchase this DVD.

Dead Movie, August 18, 2001
This movie boasts Denise Richards on it and also Volleyball, right? WRONG!!! Both of them are not in the movie all that much, especially Denise Richards. She also looks about 21 years old also. It turns out this movie was filmed actually in 1996, must have been shelved for a LONG while. All I can say is don't be suckered by the cover of the DVD unless you want to get be bored for 90 minutes..
