4.0 out of 5 stars Hot Dog--A great gas of a movie!, June 13, 2001

By	[e-mail] (So Cal) - See all my reviews

This is a decent story about skiing, partying, and hi-jinks and low-brow humor. Watch for two stars--Dan, played by David Naughton--remember the Dr. Pepper commercials and the TV show "Makin' It'? and Sunny played by Tracy N. Smith who co-starred in Bachelor Party as a friend of the bride. There are so many memorable characters in this movie! 'Snake Leg' Banks, Michelle 'Banana Pants', Squirrel Murphy, Kendo, Rudi, etc. Lots of fun. Shannon Tweed is in this, too. She was a Playboy Playmate of the Year. Look for the Chinese Downhill, Squirrel's reaction in the hi-speed chair lift, and the part when Dan lets everyone know he got 'hurt' by hitting a tree. Good skiing shots, too. Need a DVD of this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Next Year We'll Have Uniforms!, November 16, 1999

By A Customer

Hot Dog The Movie is one of the best films of all time! I watched this movie all through high school and can remember watching all of the classic ski sequences at 5:00 AM while waiting for my friends to pick me up to go skiing. As is true with many others, this movie has become a ritual to get me ready for the ski season. Who else thought Bannana Pants was hot? Who thinks Sunny's thighs were too big? Who thought Squirel Murphy should have had better luck? And one last question: WHERE CAN I FIND THE SOUNDTRACK?

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, for some reason., June 7, 2000

By	Shawn Connor (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

I really feel kinda guilty for enjoying this movie - the acting was terrible, the ski scenes were good but they sped up the film and tilted the camera in spots to make it look more dangerous, Shannon Tweed was pretty but looked totally plastic... and yet I still find myself quoting the "stay out of ze middle" and "Chinese Downhill" lines every so often. As "Summer Fun" films go, this is one of the better ones. Not something I pull out very often but still amusing - though I've never been quite sure why.
