    I can't believe I missed this little 80's gem until now! Okay, the story is a little questionable - middle aged man gets with best friend's teenage daughter, and as for the topless running around on the beach - well! I can't imagine many fathers allowing that to happen! But in spite of this, and a young Demi Moore (heinous as usual, thank goodness her role in this is pretty minor), this is still an enjoyable and fun 80's movie. Michelle Johnson is great in this, wonder what ever happened to her, welll, she totally overacts, but it fits in so well with the whole over the top story. Good trashy fun.

    Best friends and their daughters holiday in Rio only for one to fall for the other's daughter. Made in 1984 this movie is typical of any Micheal Caine's movies ... some nice beach scenes too!

    okay, é engraçadinho e tal, mas eu odeio filmes-clichês sobre o brasil com baianas macumbeiras em cada esquina e araras como animais domésticos.

    Everyone remembers this movie as the one with a heck of a lot of boobs. It`s not a bad take on father-daughter relationships and the dynamics of the friendships between the two girls and the dads. The silent housekeeper`s scenes are great for teh lulz.

    Michael Caine plays a reluctant lover to the daughter of his best friend on a vacation in Rio. His acting is pretty good, but the movie gets worse as it ages.

    A really interesting film about a yopunger girl who falls for her father's older friend while vacationing in Rio de Janeiro. A great and funny film about love. Michael Caine, Demi Moore, Joseph Bolonga, and Michelle Johnson star in this 1984 comedy film.

    Interesting twist, two friends go on vacation to Rio, friend#1's daughter falls in love with friend#2 (Kane), and one thing leads to another. Great music, and may I add lots of topless chicks.

    I was very surprised with this movie, they were able to turn a very serious subject into a funny one. I gotta be honest, when I first saw the beach sex scene I was outraged, and I'm not a prude. This is a very touchy subject of a grownup having sex with a minor, I wonder how people reacted to it when the movie first came out.

    Only Michael Caine walking around acting uncomfortable all the time provided the sole comic moments in the film. His object of affection provided iminimal emotional attachment and the monologues to camera were unneccesary and pulled out of the already less than developed plot.

    The shaky affair is held together by another outstanding performance by Michael Caine as the conscience-stricken, reluctant lover.

    I don't consider myself prudish but I do think the sex scenes in the film were a bit excessive.
