Wilde Kirschen - The Power of the Pussy

... has been sucked out by this mess of a film. I've seen Tania Raymonde in more recent projects and feel she's an underrated and deserving actress. So yeah, I went into this one blind (never a good move unless you dont mind losing 2 hours of your remaining existence), and I paid dearly for doing so.

It started out with, well, at least a shred of promise that it was going somewhere. Yeah, somewhere - that it did.

This went down the old, tired, formulaic trail of raunch where these writers and directors targeting a young audience seem to inevitably go. You know, everyone's doing it by 16 or 17, probably many times with multiple partners -- so why arent you? And whats wrong with you that you dont want random, reckless sex - whenever, wherever, however? None of it will matter after high school anyway, right? Potential partner has no redeeming qualities, has no clue about making mature decisions or what a purposeful life is about? No worries, no problemo. No real life consequences to worry about, yeah, so just go for it!

In lieu of the Me Too movement of a few years ago, does any of this cause us to give pause and ask why Hollyweird is so intent on littering the landscape with these messages?

The *only* - and I do mean only - semi-redeeming thing in this film is Rob Schneider. He tries valiantly with what little he has to work with. The salad scene gave me a hearty laugh. But really, the writing is gosh awful, throughout, the scenes get increasingly deplorable, and by an hour through, you know there will be not a single thing worth taking or remembering from this wreck. Oh, and gee, let's throw in the "big game" at the end (gee, wonder how that will turn out?) involving absolutely zero characters this film has given you one reason to root for.

Note to scriptwriters - more in your face crude doesnt equal funny or entertaining. I dont know where the career paths of the dimwits responsible for Wild Cherry have gone in the decade and a half since, but I wouldnt hold hope that they took a step up from here. To anyone who gave Cherry more than 2 stars, you seriously need to discover what a true quality film of value is. Some value, any value. This one isnt it.

This movie has a good cast, and has all the potential in the world, however some of the story falls off the table. There are a few scenes that make you roll your eyes, and the writers COULD have done ALOT BETTER, just made themselves look flat lazy. Again, it had so much potential, and was IDK, maybe a few times where writers should have admitted they were tired, or they could have at least said something to eachother or spoke up and said "That's funny, BUT... (in the swimming pool scene) Wouldn't the Guys ACTUALLY SAY SOMETHING that would actually give away the fact there was other guys there??" Or several other scenes that make you just same, 'C'mon Maaann...' Such a good cast, in such a poor film.

To me soul is a summary of everything that is important in a film. No matter what genre of film or production cost or whatever. It's a simple film that address important things and it does it well. I would be happy knowing that my younger teenage siblings and cousins watched this film. The actors in the film are good and not afraid to stick their necks out to be funny. Tia Carrere and Rob Schnider are legends. As for the leading actress Tania Raymonde, I've seen her in two other quite different films and she seems to be able to play any role excellently.

I started watching this with low expectations thinking it might provide a little titillation and I expected I would fast forward through it and delete it from my PVR very quickly, but this movie was quite watchable and I got drawn into the characters.

It was enjoyable and before I knew it the movie was over and I really enjoyed the underlying message of learning about sexuality. This movie is so much more than many of the teen sex romps and as an extremely liberal person about sexuality I recommend this movie for all teens of any age as a fun and responsible learning experience.

I was surprised upon reading about this movie here at IMDb that it was filmed in Canada. It doesn't have that "made in Canada" feel to it.

I really do suggest you give this movie a chance. It has a bunch of attractive female and male actors and it is well done.

Although I'm not sure it lives completely up to the song performed midway through the movie. There is something essential in here, but it does not deliver completely on this premise. I like the actors in this though (mostly the women that is), because they have a chance to play with some nice themes. I'm also pleasantly surprised that I kinda liked Rob Schneider in this movie.

The comedy works quite good. Though I'm not sure what to make of Tia Carreras character and her efforts to move the story along. It is necessary, but on the other hand, it feels more than off. Still not half as bad as you might expect it to be
