Dennis Harvey, respected film critic for VARIETY, the top Hollywood trade publication, gave The Double-D Avenger a very positive film review in 2001, and I fully agree with his opinion. He stated in his written review for Variety that the movie was a "cheerfully silly ode to larger than life femininity." Essentially the movie is the one and only reunion film of Russ Meyer's famous stars, and it's a silly, fun little farce! A total low-budget spoof. It is not a pornographic film, it is a Benny Hill type z-grade comedy.
The film's been a huge financial success for the producer William Winckler, and it's sold all over the world . . .there is a French language version, a Japanese language version, etc. . Many fans see it as the unofficial "last Russ Meyer film." If you want to watch a happy, goofy, fun B-movie, this is it! If you're looking for porn, or soft core, or are expecting a $ 200 million dollar Hollywood epic, look elsewhere.
