Audience Member Aptly titled screwball comedy has group of misfits attempting to save a posh Florida hotel from creditors. Features a lot of highly unoriginal gags and scenarios to minimal effect. Film's only saving grace may be the appearance of Corinne Alphen. Co-writing credit went to Nick Holeris, who I believe was the co-host of Global TV's Kids Beat in the 80s. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Three guys dishonourably discharged from a military academy try to save the debt-ridden hotel they get jobs at. It appears minimum wage laws do not apply at this hotel as the guys work for room and board while raising $300k for the owner. Improves after a somewhat dubious start. I did think the accidental use of cocaine as an artificial dessert sweetener was a decent subplot but failing to use Corinne Alphen to maximum effect is a blemish. Sadly, Alphen last film role.
