L'attaque de la pin-up géante

This movie is mostly used as a vehicle to show off buxom women. The story line is so weak it is virtually non-existent. It consists primarily of photo shoots of scantily clad women. There is, however, one redeeming quality with some of the comic dialogue. The statements are so "cliché" and predictable they end up bringing some comic relief to an otherwise stale script. The movie is still young (1995) but it is bad enough to become a "cult" classic in the vein of "Plan 9 from Outer Space" from director Edward W. Wood. If you enjoy nude women and are willing to overlook the major flaws in the script and view it with a tongue in cheek attitude it provides a generally tolerable viewing time. However, do not expect this to be a serious film by any means. I don't think the director had this in mind.

For a Roger Corman-produced film it was strangely tit(literally)illating. Sexy, involving, acting so bad it was nearly a comedy (Look for the man in a rat suit). If you like it, see the feminist "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman" remake with Daryl Hannah as the woman with the giant breasts.

This one leaves us with the age old question: which was worse the plot or the acting? Well, actually it was probably the directing or the editing. The highlight of this exercise in absurdity is the cameo appearances of Disney's Tommy Kirk, Stanley (My 3 Sons) Livingston, and Russ Tamblyn (who also was unfortunate enough to cameo in 'Cabin Boy').

"Attack of the 60 Foot Centerfold" takes an already cheesy original, "Attack of the 50 foot Woman" and makes it cheesier! But it does so in such an engagingly cornball manner that you can't help but smile even as you groan at the inane plot and low rent special effects.

The cast are all from the "golly, gosh" school of acting. They know full well they won't be up for Oscars so they lay it on shamelessly. There's an affectionate parody of Hugh Hefner. In a cute touch Michelle Bauer, who has stripped in dozens of b-flicks, plays a fully clothed science researcher.

Lead actress JJ North and her fellow ingenues are amply endowed but the nudity, toplessness actually, isn't raunchy. They're too busy hamming it up to heat it up. There's not all that much nudity in the film, so don't expect a flesh parade.

Not worth buying, but a good weekly rental.

The rest, where the majority of the film happens feels unnecessary for the suprisingly romantic plot.

A good use of the Attack of the 50 feet Woman concept. I loved the acting of the blond, and the final fight with the red. Fast-forwarded the rest.
