Warning: Spoilers
This film is a joy to behold, it has everything from romantic locations and complex love triangles to car chases and jet ski shoot outs with an old fashioned caper plot to foil the villain and rescue the handsome heroes estranged high ranking diplomatic father from evil drug baron (Gary Busey in his best performance since Point Break). There is comic relief from two wonderful drag queens who foil the keystone-like cops with wily tricks of flames and flirtation, also a superb performance by leading man (Mack Astin) coping with all th problems of an American in a foreign clime.

I found the only thing that was lacking was a plot but otherwise fell that this film is a must for anyone who enjoys a good old fashioned romantic, thriller, crime, caper, comedy, coming of age film with plenty of scantily clad ladies and a thumping soundtrack.
