This movie had everything I hoped for, bad acting, cheesy 80s music, big hair, exquisite mullets, rampant nudity and mindless fun. I honestly can't say that there is much of a premise to this movie, a plot would have killed this joyride. To best summarize this Z flick, it's about a bunch of kids from around the country spending the summer working, well, a summer job.
This group of kids (or in reality, adults in their mid to late 20s) included a cowboy, a spastic geek, a fat guy, a jock, a princess, and a couple of mega hotties with mega big hair. This privileged bunch were picked from over 600 applicants for the job of a lifetime, they should have felt so fortunate. This group learns all about heartbreak, sex, voyeurism, dirty old men, psychotic cooks, you name it, all in one short summer. T&A galore, painfully bad dialogue and a gut wrenching performance by Orkestra, which features members of Electric Light Orchestra all decked out in white suits, oh ya!! I had too much fun watching this schlock fest. My friend said it best when he said this movie has aged like milk, it has the 80s written all over it from the second it starts.
I can't believe I've already devoted this many words to describe this rubbish but I will say I'm not surprised that all of the members of this movie's cast never developed an acting career, not even George O!! This is the kind of garbage that you used to see on USA Up All Night, so if you're a fan of trashy 80s beach films, then by all means, go see it. Just accept it for what it is.

"Summer Job" is billed as a sex comedy, I suppose, but it fails on both counts: it's tame and unerotic and, at the same time, thoroughly unfunny. The characters are stereotypical, the acting is poor, the humor level low and nobody would accuse the film of intelligence. However, all this imbecility seemed inoffensive to me, maybe because it never gets downright sleazy, and the film is certainly a lot less boring than several "high-profile" motion pictures.
I recently revisited Summer Job (1989) on Tubi. The storyline follows a group of college kids assigned to a summer job taking care of a pool area at a resort. Each of them has different motives, from wanting to be cool, to scoring chicks, and simply having a good time. Their efforts are overseen by a young lady tasked with keeping them in line.
Directed by Paul Madden (Medium Rare), the film stars Sherrie Rose (Unlawful Entry), Jim Pelish (Runaway Dreams), Amy Lynn Baxter (Karate Warrior 2), James Summer, Karen-Eileen Gordon (Legally Blonde 2), and Cari Mayor (Lauderdale).
As a childhood favorite of mine, I must have watched "Summer Job" a hundred times on HBO growing up. It captures the classic 80s vibe from the opening song onward. The humor, content, premise, and circumstances evoke the spirit of films like "Police Academy" and "Porky's." The attractive cast members provide the expected dashes of topless nudity, adding to the film's appeal. While the characters are easy to root for and the storyline is straightforward, the direction and conclusion is predictable.
In conclusion, Summer Job may not be groundbreaking, but it's worth your time if you have the appropriate expectations. I'd give it a 4/10 and recommend seeing it once.

this movie is about having fun in the sun. It's an 80's movie and thats what makes it good. Beautiful women and a few whacky guys wrapped up in crazy shannigans. this is an uncomplicated movie and is great to rent on a friday night int he summer or during those cold nights in the winter. I remember when this movie was shown on tv alot on saturday afternoons. i remember how i would laugh at what happens in it. Seriously, if you want to feel better and laugh, this is the movie to rent. Watch for the beautiful sherrie rose and amy lynn Baxter and chantal. Along witht he rest of the cast. even though theres lots of T And A there is a message to this movie and thats that no matter who you are you're important. As the theme song in this movie says, " You've got the pwoer to do anything you want to." So rent this movie, let yourself go, have a good time.
My review was written in May 1989 after a Cannes Film Festival Market screening.
Unbelievably in theatrical release Stateside, "Summer Job" represents the nadir of the teen sex-comedy genre, an amateur-night film deficient on all levels.
Plotless wonder, with seven producers credited, including underachieving scripter Ralph Wilson, runs through tired sight gags and stupid dialog that is so badly acted and mechanically executed one can only marvel at the cynicism of its makers.
Sherrie Rose is the young supervisor of college kids working at a Florida resort for the summer. There's some practical joking, fraternizing with grotesque guests and boring partying. None of it works or is the least bit diverting.
Paul Madden's minimalist direction repeats camera setups in the manner of early D. W. Griffith, avoids camera movement and omits any hint of action footage. Apparently some pretty girls dropping their tops for a second or two is supposed to justify the rest.
Flat line readings are par for the course, while the token nerd is overplayed embarrassingly by thesp billed as simply Geoge O.
Cannes Market audience laughed only once, when a foppish waiter ineptly took a stab at reciting French dialog.
