Annie, a Lourinha Cobiçada

This likably stupid film should only be watched by people who can turn their brains off, and any intellectual analysis of this film is missing the point. Predictably, the two leads are played by busty women, but these two have a certain charm that is usually lacking in films like this. This movie is also full of silly sexual jokes, but somehow, I actually found many of them to be funny. Perhaps this is because this is a good-natured film, and therefore things never get too raunchy. Whatever the reason, this is a solid viewing selection if you're in the mood for some undemanding fun.

Silly throughout, you will never get tired from it. Here you have a all-American girl who works at a diner. Here aunt is behind in her payments, and she meets all kinds of weirdos in Miami, Florida. She meets a man with a Napoleon complex, a conman, and other unsavory characters. But she knows how to have fun in a time of uncertainty. This movie has lots of sex appeal to boot. And it's good for a hot Saturday night.

3 out of 5 stars.

Sixpack Annie (1975) is a movie that I recently watched on Amazon Prime. The storyline follows a young lady who wants to save her family business. She decides the best way to do that is to find a sugar daddy, but that task ends up not being as easy as she thought it would be.

This movie is directed by Fred G. Thorne in his directorial debut and stars Lindsay Bloom (The Dukes of Hazzard), Jana Bellan (American Graffiti), Bruce Boxleitner (Tron), Joe Higgins (Burke's Law) and Ray Danton (The Longest Day).

This movie is all over the place, but I loved the soundtrack, era, cars and random circumstances. Annie and Mara in this are smoking and there's a worthwhile skinny-dipping scene in this. The jokes are inconsistent with some being hilarious and some being cheesy and corny. The ending was fun, and this movie did a great job not taking itself too seriously.

Overall, this is a very average movie that is still worth a viewing. I would score this a 5/10 and recommend seeing it once.

In a career neatly balancing mainstream episodic television like THE DUKES OF HAZZARD and exploitation cinema such as COVER GIRL MODELS, Lindsay Bloom is by far the cutest starlet to appear in the latter: providing a girl-next-door innocence within the infamously risque guilty-pleasure drive-in cinema...

Herein a perfect fit for the rural hangout romp SIXPACK ANNIE, where her titular character realizes a plot-line halfway through... to find a sugar daddy with enough cash to help her aunt pay for the family diner, where she waitresses with AMERICAN GRAFFITI bellhop Jana Bellan, a cherubic brunette to Bloom's adorable blonde...

It's a shame the pair couldn't be involved in more of the first half's small-town adventures... including run-ins with handsome local Bruce Boxleitner and a boisterous good-old-boy sheriff... since the their down-home-dazzling presence lights up the grungy one-horse town, from pickup-truck-cruising-exteriors to beer-guzzling-barroom interiors...

But once in Florida... where Annie gets dodgy advice from older bubbly-blonde Louisa Moritz, being thrust from one male dud to the next (mostly without sidekick Belllan)... the second-half fails to compliment an actress with enough natural charm to have carried things as far as she could - as SIXPACK ANNIE the character far exceeds the movie.

As a serious moviegoer, you should periodically spend ninety minutes or so with a picture such as this one. You will clear your mind of such considerations as camera angles, lighting effects, directorial nuances, and similar aesthetic clutter. There will be no demands on your analytical abilities or your appreciation of cinematic excellence. You will forget your troubles, lose yourself in the sheer mindlessness of it all, and probably enjoy yourself immensely.

Warning: Don't watch it a second time. You will be left wondering how you not only could have sat through it once, but genuinely liked it.

Then watch it a third time to see which previous impression was correct. I dare you.
