Fans of kitsch will be in seventh heaven: not only does this boast Joan Collins at her most flamboyant, but her male lead is Baywatch star David Hasselhoff. He plays a charming rogue out to fleece his rich employer Collins, who ends up falling in love with her. Director Rod Holcomb tries to whip it all up into witty froth, but he is hampered by the ever-wooden Hasselhoff and a clumsy script. Collins, however, emerges with her dignity intact and has a ball sending up her soap-queen image, while Telly Savalas is a splendid villain.

C movie 'heaven'

A Customer from London, 24th July, 2007

Hi kitsch. Joan looks fabulous. The Hoff wearing more make-up than her and playing 'gay' . Fabulous costumes for Joan and glitzy jewels. Telly Savallas in a cameo role, playing a baddy. A bit of early dynasty about it. Knowing what Joan's films are like this isn't too bad - it is also quite an old film and suspense or plotlines were a bit different in them days. If you love to look at Joan you'll love this

Waste of time

A Customer from Derby, England, 9th June, 2005

This film was badly written, poorly directed and the acting was wooden. What a waste of time and celluloid. We gave up after half an hour. We couldn't decide if it was meant to be funny or exciting or what (it was neither, but seemed to be makig an attempt at both). A great disappointment.
