The plot makes no sense. Why the hell is a fashion photographer invited along on a weapons smuggling operation? It's never explained. But it doesn't matter.
The gorgeous and talented Jaqueline Lovell (Sara St. James) really steals the show here. As do all the frequently naked Russian-accented models that band together under Timothy Bottoms' leadership to smuggle weapons.
Timothy Bottoms. Geez, what went wrong in his career? From Last Picture Show to this? Did he have a drug problem? If there was a little less convoluted plot, this might qualify as softcore porn. The movie stakes its territory early on with a hot tub/bathtub scene involving the aforementioned model gun smugglers, two of which are lesbians.
One of the lesbians can't speak. Making her the perfect woman. She is appropriately called "Silencio," despite the fact that the word "silencio" is Spanish and the girl is supposedly Russian.
A lot in this movie doesn't make logical sense, aside from the plot. Is Lovell's character a whore, a gun smuggler, an American exchange student or what? But the nonsensical moments in the movie make for some great laughs, along the lines of Mystery Science Theater. For instance: To get rid of Lovell, the bad guys... leave her dangling by a rope while she stands on a (gasp!) REALLY STEEP SLOPING PLATFORM! They leave her alone, I guess figuring eventually she'll slide down? Is this how they thought walking the plank was supposed to be done? The cheap production values make for some giggles as well.
The "explosive" is obviously one of those cologne sample tubes. And when a bunch of girls get shot (by some random dude who looks very confused as to why he just shot a bunch of hot chicks) the bullet wounds on one of the girls makes it look like she's wearing a girl scout sash.
This is great entertainment. I'd give it a ten out of ten on the unintentional comedy scale. It gets a 7 because the good guy freakin annoyed me and there wasn't nearly enough nudity,
