    The reviews remind me how puritanical we’ve become as a society.

    Worst music I’ve ever heard in a movie. Absolutely bizarre how the director needed to have a huge tropical bird in almost every shot. All round terrible movie.

    I have over 500 movies and bought this because I remember it playing on HBO exactly 40 years ago this week. I have all the HBO guides from the 1980s which are a treasure trove of movie ideas. Anyhow, I bought this on Blu Ray and it's definitely a keeper. It's the tail end of the early 1980s movie nudity but the girls are all stunning. I think the problem people have with this is that the star is 17 but she's physically perfect. I'm shocked at the low rating so I'm giving it 5/5 on the creepy Gen X shameless man scale.

    This movie is a hidden gem, full of laughs...Sure, given the extreme sensitivity nowadays, some will find the premise a bit creepy, but everything isn't a fairy tale in the real world...This movie has a combination of seasoned veteran actors (Michael Caine, Joseph Bologna, & Valerie Harper) and newcomers of the time (Michelle Johnson & a young Demi Moore)...It is a well written comedy that will have your face sore from laughing, and even make you feel for the characters even though they are getting into situations they clearly should be avoiding...I would describe it as a free flowing, roller coaster of laughs, betrayal, and realization that life can be unconventional...The scenery is beautiful, the soundtrack is memorable...Is it the best movie of all time??? Absolutely not...However, if you take it for what it is...An 80's comedy that combines coming of age with turning back time, you will enjoy this movie...

    Beautiful location beautiful girls and a few laughs. Caine is notorious for not reading scripts before signing up and judging how awkward he looks in some of the romantic scenes I'm not sure he knew what he was getting himself into or at least I hope so but it was the 80's and older men and young women was still very much accepted thankfully not so much today. His performance is good as it normally is and if you can watch it without too much of a modern perspective which applies to many great but troubling 80's films let's face it, it was enjoyable but once will be enough

    Hilarious. The narration by character is too funny.

    As gross and uncomfortable as it sounds. I hope Cain got another great house out of it because no one else got anything.

    I remember seeing this in the 80's when it came out. Didn't think a thing about it. HOWEVER. A big old wtf to anyone saying anything positive about it now. Really? She's calling him UNCLE MATTHEW and is underage for F's sake.

    Creo que todas las opiniones son injustas con esta pelicula, sobre todo porque se mira con los ojos del 2020, cuando el film se realizó en 1984. Muchos hablan de lo BAD, FEO, ugly que es , que un hombre maduro , tenga una relacion con una adolescente, pero si hablamos de LOLITA, las criticas son buenas, y el HECHO, es el mismo. No se puede valorar esta pelicula con los ojos sensibles y politicamente correctos de hoy, es una insensatez y un desprecio al cine. La pelicula no es una obra maestra, pero me gustó mucho que el ingenuo fuera el hombre maduro , en vez de la chica joven de 17 años. Hay escenas divertidas, mucho mas que peliculas de Adam Sandler. En fin, a mis 45 años, pienso que realmente los críticos , siguen la corriente de los tiempos y la moda, por eso siempre seré fan de Michael Jackson, porque independientemente de sus problemas personales, en lo referente a la música, él no iba nunca a las tendencias de las productoras o de su tiempo, él hacia lo que le daba la gana, y lo mejor de todo, es que era muy bueno el producto. Saludos.

    Filme legal, o roteiro é bacana, as cenas são bacaninhas, o elenco é bacana, e alguns ajudam a melhorar o filme, a história é bacaninha, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores, mas eu recomendo por ser no Brasil.
