Dangerous When Wet Review


Directed by Adele Robbins. Released by Snowflake Films in 1987. Available on DVD from VCX.

Roger (played by Jerry Butler) and Annie (played by Bionca) have lost the spark in their relationship. They pay to watch another couple (played by Buck Adams and Jeanette Littledove) have sex in order to get aroused and to get some tips; however, they can't seem to duplicate what they see. Instead, they seek arousal elsewhere: Annie with a neighbor (played by Leslie Winston) and Roger with a girl who claims has an orgasm that registers a 4.5 on the Richter Scale (Amber Lynn). In the end, instead of watching their friends have sex, Annie and Roger join them, but whether Annie and Roger can get aroused by themselves is not resolved. Story Grade: C-.

This movie was shot on video. Medium Grade: B.

Real locations were used in this production. There were some outdoor scenes. Set Design Grade: B.

The sexual performances were energetic and the performers seemed enthusiastic. The scenes with Buck Adams and Jeanette Littledove were the most passionate. Amber Lynn was only in one scene, but wasn't even topless in it. Sexual Performances Grade: B+.

Jerry Butler was the best actor of the bunch. His seemingly improvised lines and actions appeared to crack up Bionca on occasion which was entertaining, although it was outside the realm of the story, which was pretty flimsy anyway. The dialogue between Buck Adams and Jeanette Littledove seemed rather stilted. Acting Grade: B-.

Leslie Winston's jogging gear may not have been realistic, but it looked good nonetheless. Jeanette Littledove's wearing of high heels during sex in bed was unrealistic and distracting. Wardrobe/Make-up Grade: B-.

Lighting fluctuations were frequent throughout the movie. The c-light was noticeable in many scenes, even the outdoor Amber Lynn scene. Lighting Grade: D+.

At times, the dialogue sounded muffled and the background score music overpowered what was being said. Sound Grade: D.

The cameraman's foot and a cable were visible in the outdoor Amber Lynn scene. The shadow of the boom mic appeared in another scene. The lesbian scene featured a continuity error. Bionca pulled her shorts down before going into the shed, but they're back on once she's inside. Directing Grade: D+.

Outside of using actual locations for the production, not much artistry seemingly went into this movie. The title doesn't even seem to fit the contents and Jeanette Littledove or Bionca are more deserving to be on the box cover than Amber Lynn. Artistic Merit Grade: C-.

OVERALL GRADE: C.
