4.0 out of 5 stars
Pretty Good, July 17, 2002
I was suprised by this movie. Most of the exposure that I have had to Zelman King was through Red Shoe Diaries, so because of that I was expecting mostly mild titalation with some decent excuse for a plot. What I found in this film was something I never expected. Instead of sex and steamy dialogue (which there is some) you are instead given a somewhat confusing, yet suprisingly interesting plot. Most of the actors do really well with their parts (although at times two of the actresses totally bomb off the screen). I would recomend this to anyone who enjoys pulp type cinema, because this has all the makings of a Jackie Collins novel. *Although not rated this would probably get an R rating.

An interesting film, October 13, 2002
I had never heard of pirate radio stations before watching this movie. I found the idea of a beautiful pirate radio host traveling the streets of Los Angeles in a fully armed 18 wheeler a bit strange at first, but it all makes sense at the end. The lead actress was so beautiful, so ethereal, so melancholy that I empathized with the men who protected and loved her. I never saw the Red Shoe Diaries (the director directed that series) but I've heard good things about it and I found this story to be surprisingly entertaining with the voices of the lead actress and Sally Kellerman (who is still sexy after all these years) and Donna De Lory's soundtrack to be both haunting and soothing. I highly recommend getting Ms. De Lory's album, "Bliss," to enjoy this wonderful performer. As erotica, though, the movie is quite tame, and the comedianne part was somewhat of a disappointment because her jokes weren't funny and they didn't show enough of her to really get a sense of her erotic nuances. Thus the four star rating rather than a five.

There Has To Be a Plot Here Somewhere, June 29, 2006
Okay, I can appreciate a cheesy, wafer-thin plot to make room for the steamy scenes, but this movie has neither. It thought it was going to be soft porn, but it didn't work out. But by the time you realize this, you have already lost interest in the plot, for the simple reason that there really isn't one. This is one of the few films actress Sandra Taylor ever starred in, so it's worth picking up if you're a fan. But if you're just looking to see if maybe Zalman King has finally done a nice steamy movie that doesn't involve David Duchovny and a small dog, you're wasting your time - he hasn't.
