Anyone who is a Farrah Fawcett fan will love this movie. She doesn't have much of a 'sun tan' here but looks good in one of her earlier films.

Charles Grodin and Art Carney add plenty of humor. Though the movie has a sudden 'wrap-up' ending its 110 minutes of fun, the scenes are pretty nice in Mexico. I was searching for this movie a long time and gave up until recently doing a search for Farrah Fawcett.

Maybe a DVD will come out although I doubt anyone will be re-mastering the soundtrack.

If you've seen this movie in theatres and enjoyed it, at least it will take you back into your past . . . and that was what I expected.

Okay I know that the professional critics hated this movie and I have heard people saying it was a box office flop but I have seen the movie Sunburn on TV and I liked it and I think it's a cute movie. The movie stars, Farrah Faucett (Charlie's Angels) Charles Grodin (Seems Like Old Times) and Art Carney (The Honeymooners) who are investigating murder, insurance fraud and the theft of money. I wish this movie was on DVD!

This movie should be on DVD. It was Farrah Fawcett's second big screen outing after leaving Charlies Angels and probably the best of the three feature films she made in rapid succession. This one is a light hearted tongue in cheek thriller that has some genuine moments of comedy and allows for about 90 minutes of escapist entertainment. Alongside a gorgeous Farrah (dropping broad hints that she may be an actress as well as just a sex symbol) theres, Art Carney, Charles Grodin and a very funny and sexy Joan Collins pre Dynasty.

I saw this movie in the theater in 1979 and on cable during the 1980s and love it. It's got a great Mexican vacation setting and is exciting & funny & even better if you like Charles Grodin or Farrah Fawcett, plus it's got 10cc music. Total 70s nostalgia & fun and I would buy this in a heartbeat if it was on DVD as I don't buy VHS tapes anymore. If anyone from the movie studio/distributor reads these reviews, please release this one on DVD!!!!

I saw this movie several times in the 80's on TV , it's a fun, romantic adventure comedy filmed in Mexico in 1979, one of Farrah Fawcett's first films after leaving Charlie's Angels. Farrah Fawcett shines as a sexy PI's undercover girlfriend. I also love the music, the "Wings" song "With alittle Luck" plays at the end of the movie with Farrah driving off in convertible! I would love to get this on DVD! It's a good time capsule of the late 1970's!

Although this movie does not appear to be available on DVD, and is out-of-print in VHS format, it is an enjoyable, if somewhat forgettable comedy/crime drama. It's made-for-TV feel makes it easy to watch and easy to follow. Just when you find yourself wondering what's going to happen next and you realize it's nearly over. Not bad for a late 70's flick, and worth watching if you can find it!
