Not bad , but keep your expectations low
20 August 2014
This is one of the last films of the (somewhat) famous Israeli "Lemon Popsicle" series. By this time the plotting had largely gone out the window as well as some of the more successful comedy bits. The character development and acting had become pretty much a complete afterthought. And the three male characters had lost a lot of their adolescent appeal since the actors here are all pushing 30 (hard) and far from being awkward virgins, they manage to get laid more than probably ANYONE did during this era (which judging from the cars and music seems to be the early to mid 60's).

The plot has the three ever-horny protagonists hanging out on the beach where the fat guy, "Hughie" is renting out the trunk of his father's Mercury to rutting couples. After crashing the car into a tree, they all have to take jobs at a summer resort where all the females (maids, guests, etc.) are sexually insatiable. The main protagonist "BenjI" is (as usual) torn between two lovers, a hot girl he just broke up (Sonja Martin), who shows up at the resort with her family to meet her new wealthy fiancée, and another hot girl (Sissi Liebold) who is pursuing him. His two friends try to help him out by kidnapping and tying up the fiancée and taking his hot-to-trot pursuer off his hands. . .

One area where this film definitely does succeed is that the girls in this are really attractive (although only one of the three males is) and they manage to efficiently get pretty much all of them completely naked, the one exception strangely being Sybille Rauch (as a hotel guest with a big dog), who had the most racy scenes in the earlier "Hot Bubblegum: Lemon Popsicle 3" and who would become a hardcore porn star that same year! Generally though, if the early entries in this series resemble the sexual frustration and adolescent angst of "The Last American Virgin" (which was basically a modern-day American remake of these films), this film resembles a lot of Golan-Globus American sex comedies of the mid to late 80's like "Hot Resort", "Private Resort", "Hot Chili", etc. where that is secondary at best and almost the entire emphasis is on female nudity, softcore sex scenes, and general brain-dead frivolity. But if you shut your mind off and keep your expectations low, it's not that bad
