About This Movie

This 1992 film, featuring Penthouse Pet of the Year Julie Strain and Playboy's Alexandria Lakewood, dives into the world of pool with a laid-back vibe. The performances have a certain charm, with Strain and Lakewood bringing their unique flair to the screen. The atmosphere is distinctly 90s, capturing both the glitz of Hollywood and the grit of competitive sports. The pacing flows nicely, balancing playful moments with the tension of learning a competitive skill. It’s not just about the game; it explores camaraderie and rivalry, all set against the iconic backdrop of the Hollywood Athletic Club.

This film has had limited availability on physical media, making it somewhat of a curiosity for collectors. I’ve seen a few VHS copies floating around, but DVD releases are pretty scarce. The blending of adult entertainment with a sports theme certainly gives it a niche appeal; it attracts those interested in both genres. While not widely discussed, it does pique the interest of collectors who appreciate the crossover between glamour and sports in 90s cinema.
