Trivia
The film was originally produced to be broadcast on the Playboy Channel but Columbia Pictures picked it up and released it theatrically instead. The American Film Institute's catalog states, that according to an article published on March 2, 1984, by The Los Angeles Times, the film was originally produced for the Playboy Channel but the sexual content was deemed 'too soft' for the channel, ''the production was [then] acquired by distributor Columbia Pictures for domestic theatrical release''.

Goofs
The dog's collar can-holder is only big enough for one beer can, but seconds after the head geek takes the can out, another can magically appears in it.

Quotes
Ashby: [sings country-style with guitar] She was a young thing in the prime of her life, Standing there lookin' as cute as could be. So I walked on over and asked her her name - I'm still not believin' what she said to me... "I don't f*** fossils for free, old man. I don't f*** fossils for free. So just go on home and take matters in hand, 'Cause I don't f*** fossils for free."

Very likable 80's sex comedy

"Hardbodies" delivers what you should expect from a lightweight 80's sex comedy: plenty of fantastic-looking girls in bikinis or topless, a fun-carefree-sunny-summer-California-beach atmosphere, a couple of chuckles, and lots of 80's music. It does not deliver high cinematic artistry or a brilliant plot, but then again you should not expect any of that. The two main girls, Teal Roberts and Cindy Silver, are both enormously appealing and pleasantly natural, and the two main guys, Grant Cramer and Courtney Gains, are likable. The premise might have worked better if we had younger nerds in the roles of the middle-aged men, but to its credit the movie acknowledges their age and somehow manages to get away with it. It's the girls who are the most important here anyway, and as I said the casting was very good right down the line - I don't remember looking at even one less-than-pretty girl in this movie, even at the background. One of THE prettiest is no doubt a very young Kathleen Kinmont, in her first movie role: she doesn't get naked, yet her very tight white T-shirt leaves little to the imagination. (**1/2)
