Title: A FEW LAUGHS HERE AND THERE
Review: PRIVATE RESORT is the kind of movie that was geared towards young adult audiences in the mid-80s when sexual awareness and exposition were the hot ticket in theatres. However, I'm sure this film is one that Johnny Depp, Hector Elizondo and Rob Morrow aren't proud to have on their resume.The movie's plot is slim, and neither Morrow or Depp have any screen presence in this early stage of their careers. Elizondo tries gamely and pulls off a few laughs, but he's not at his best either. Most of the film's laughs come from Leslie Hope as a slightly off kilter cosmic bimbo; Dody Goodman as a dotty old lady who knows karate and Tony Azito as a bumbling hotel security guard. There's lots of slapstick, some of it works, most of it doesn't. You can do better, folks.
