Beautiful Bounty

Argh! The DVD cover shows a knock-off of Lara Croft, but the woman on the cover does not appear in the movie. It's NOT an adventure movie, just some lame soft-core police thriller with sex scenes that end abruptly, as if the actors (using that term loosely) changed their minds about being naked in the movie.

One great scene near the end has the bounty huntress talking to her captive, and you can see the shadow of the soundman adjusting his microphone- VERY distracting! However, don't take that as a recommendation- not even as MST3K cheese! This one's a loser.

Very weak story and, from the camera shots (it looked like there was only one cameraman), it had a very, very limited budget.

Some shots were from angles where you can see that the actor is not aroused (of course in a softcore film there cannot be an erect member), but there is no need to show that.

In a world of mobsters, corrupt cops, bounty hunters and call girls, call girls Dusty and Jasmine are the only saving grace in this film. The best sex is the one where both people show up.

Unfortunately, I only saw the film's poster after watching it, so I took another point off my grade. This poster is criminal! You have to call for inspection! It gives the impression that we are going to watch an erotic version of Lara Croft and it has nothing to do with that. It was certainly made to make some money beyond the first Tomb Raider, which was released the same year as this film.

Rating: 1.5/5.

This is a common softcore movie with long nude scenes of 39-year-old females simulating sex contact with 25-year-old male actors.

Shadows help us see where the cameras and microphones are placed. BEAUTIFUL BOUNTY is a group effort.

The production quality is all average for California mill softcore, however, what is above average is the musical score. Except for the ending credits, the soundtrack has fun sounding instrumental music that is better than many cheap non-softcore movies that are 100 percent organ synth.

I give this 5.5 STARS because some effort was made and this movie is better than any of the current softcore movies made for late weekends on the pay cable channels during the 2020's.

Calling this B-grade would be a compliment to the film as it is worse than that. Basic, unoriginal, predictable plot, laughable dialogue, hammy acting, poor production values.

Avoid.

This is obviously a sexploitation B-movie with a very shallow (and absurd, completely unconvincing) police story with poor script and bad dialogues. However, it entertains somewhat, particularly due the good enough softcore scenes and beautiful naked bodies. P. S.: Darwin Awards for the male bounty hunter.
