this movie was ridiculous and only entertaining if u r on crack... howeva i did find it rather amusing how patrick dempsey was so young and skinny.
Good movie, Patrick Dempsey does a wonderful performance in this hilarious charming film.
In this movie Mcdreamy Proves to us that being a hooker is a positive and your girlfriend will forgive you as long as hijinks ensue. Oh and Sean Mcnamara play a great asshole rapist.
its a pretty funny movie actually.. i
enjoyed it. i mean theres not much character development but oh well.
It starts off with this funny punk rocker getting ready for a date montage... he puts his hair up with a book...

Patrick Dempsy not being nearly as attractive as he is today, gets less attractive as he looses all the bleach in his hair. He does have attractive attributes, like he is able to jump off and over things really well, and he drives this really cool jeep with a sobrero on it (which is confusing because he is dressed all italian delivering pizzas). This leads me to the most important question... did fast food really have these gimicky cars? I was in the country and poor for most of the 80s, so I have no idea if that is just something from the movies or a piece of awesome I'm going to have to go back in time for.
Like others have said, it's kind of meh, until the dad gets in this wacky sub-plot where everyone think he's a cheater. I also feel this movie has the best acted muscleman I've seen yet.
You gotta love these quirky 80's classics. Most definitely a better Deuce Bigolo. Man I miss films like this
Classic 80's flick with a twinky Patrick Dempsey as a pizza delivery boy/gigolo who romances older ladies and learns about love, class and commitment in the process. It's craptastic and made prostitution seems like so much fun!
