Julie Darling (1982)
Weird and Awkward yet entertaining
You couldn't make this today, Isabelle mejias is an interesting actress an overlooked gem of the 80's should of been bigger and more known but that's me, movie wise it works for what it sets out to do, she's not biggest fan of this movie and I can see some of her points when talks about in the DVD commentary. I'm 50/50 on it.
Hammer Down (1992)
Poor Isabelle Mejias
It's an ok movie didn't love it, didn't hate it, most of the acting is pretty bad, except for Isabelle Mejias and John Ireland that hold it together, plot is ok average action 90's b movie with a very low budget and production by the looks of things, can't help but feel bad for Isabelle what was once a very promising acting career 7 8 years earlier, she's quits acting not to long after this you can see why it's to bad.
Meatballs III: Summer Job (1986)
Decent 80's b movie cheese, the 2nd best in the franchise
Decent 80's b movie cheese defiantly would not work today, if you want a 80's b movie comedy then this is for you, looking for something more then you probably will be disappointed best i can say is don't go in with high expectations for it.
PROS
Isabelle Mejias as Wendy, is really the only like able character in the movie and the only one you can really get behind to support, does as best as she can with the material she is given,
George Buza as Mean Gene, is over the top and entertaining.
Cool early 80's music.
The Middle
Patrick Dempsey as Rudy, you don't really root for him till the last half hour of the movie, comes off whiny and annoying for most of the film, it's his first movie, he gets a pass, it's not bad but not great either never been a huge fan it's hit or miss with him.
The Tom Character plays the villain decent and you hate him in it, i think his voice is overdub in parts and makes it more funny.
CONS Rest of the main cast to me seems to phone it in, Sally Kellermen does ok, Al Waxman is ok might of helped the movie if they were more into it.
