Amy Adler Teenager Alex is shunned at school, a surprise since he is quite good looking. Maybe not making a crucial shot at the last basketball game was a factor. His guardian, older brother Jack, has no problems with the ladies. That is, until his 'personal fitness' career gets personal with the wrong female. Now, organized crime may want his scalp, if Jack doesn't do the mob tango and court beautiful Rachel (Hunter Tylo) to ascertain business secrets. Will Alex be in danger? Is there no way out for all parties? Tylo is one of the most beautiful ladies on the planet. If you agree and you love romantic tales, then you must must this film. Jack is quite an eyeful as well and Alex will probably make the younger female crowd go into rhapsodies, too. The plot is a bit silly but the triumph of the underdog is always a welcome storyline. There are those movie fans who will continually fight the good fight of finding another tale of kisses and happy endings. If you are one of these, keep your eyes peeled for this one at the video store or library.
R Smith A vehicle for star cameos. If you need a plot, character development or anything else in a movie, look elsewhere.Watched this on HBO, and I'm surprised that they actually have this scheduled this several times. Watch for a stock hit.
sexxy_karebear007 Oy... I just saw this movie a little while ago and I could not believe how horrible it was! Generally I rented it to see the cameos by O-Town and NSync, but relented and watched the whole thing... I can not believe how bad it was!!!!! Lou Pearlman made a cameo appearance in the movie and I think that was a horrible idea... The fact that he had to be in the movie he funded and had his bands plugging it and cameoing in it was bad enough but combine that with bad acting and a horrible script, and you've got the worst movie I've ever seen... I would only recommend it if you want to see that stuff. Or unless you want to see short cameo appearances of Justin Timberlake as a valet, Britney Spears as a flight attendant and O-Town as, well, O-Town and we can't forget the dangling phone cords of Erik and Ashley as the salesmen of "Longshot" which Trevor orders..... Well you get the point... Bottomline: DON'T BOTHER!
BeatlesFreakGirl That's how I felt after I had seen Longshot. My friend in college bought it and we watched it and were laughing so hard from the HORRIBLE dialogue, corny story-line, LAME boy band and Trans Con product placements, insipid characters and awkward situations. My friend and I watched it only because we're both fans of members of Nsync. Only watch if you have nothing else better to do with your time and don't spend more than 10 cents to rent or buy. Otherwise, FOR GOD'S SAKE STAY AWAY FROM THIS STINKBURGER!!!
