Excruciating post-teenage shenanigans from director Tamar Simon Hoffs (who also co-penned the practically-nonexistent screenplay) features Hoffs' daughter Susanna Hoffs (of the pop group The Bangles) as one of three vacationing college seniors anxious to get down and dirty during their final hurrah. Susanna, Dedee Pfeiffer, and Joan Cusack would appear to make a fun femme trio, but this is no "Where the Boys Are". Tasteless, terrible writing sinks a proved scenario, and everyone comes off looking inept (including the star attraction, who dances in her underwear to ill-effect). Not a single laugh to be had...even the soundtrack is a washout. NO STARS from ****
