Best movie of this year hands down!

Awesome Movie

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

When reading up on the Teen Sex Comedy genre I would always find references to the Israeli Lemon Popsicle movies as being landmarks in the genre,but sadly not able to track any of the series down. Talking to my dad about what DVDs he had recently picked up,I was surprised to learn that he had tracked down an uncut box set of the Popsicle flicks!,which led to me finally tasting the first popsicle.The plot: Bonding over music,school friends Benzi, Bobby and Huey start to bond over another subject:losing their virginity. Looking for an easy way out,the lads get a nymphomaniac and a prostitute to help them out. Whilst keeping his sexual activity secret, Benzi learns that school jock Momo has gotten fellow student Niki. Secretly having had a crush on Niki,Benzi decides to become Niki's "rock" when she goes for an abortion.View on the film:Putting a million Israeli dollars down on a toe-tapping 50's soundtrack,co-writer/(along with Eli Tavor) director Boaz Davidson & cinematographer Adam Greenberg put their rose-tinted glasses on a version of the 50's that has gone awry,where the Bubble Gum Pop is used as a backdrop against kinky sex in steamy locations. Corrupting the sweet Pop tunes, Davidson offers up a steamy side order of raunchy action,which whilst not being "hardcore",does feature some surprisingly graphic thrusting.Following Benzi,Huey and Bobby chase after every girl that catches their eyes,the screenplay by Davidson and Tavor skip over any non- sexual related interest that the trio have,causing the friendship to be left with a hollow centre. Helping to make the films sudden change to an "issue" movie run smooth, Yftach Katzur dazzles the film with a charming sincerity as Benzi,as the first lemon popsicle melts.

Since my early teenage years the title of this movie was in my, and of course in everyone of my friends', ears. First to say, I always wanted to watch this film but never had the guts to do so back then. Haven forgotten the title as years passed, I'm now 23 years old and just watched it for the first time - and I have to say, I'm totally stunned! The story line is very down to earth and pure realistic; I would guess about 90% of everyone watching this movie has had some of the same experience in his early teenage years. So don't get it wrong: this isn't comedy or a sex-film at all; it's pure drama - and when you know this in forehand, you will get, what you are searching for. I've read many reviews about people comparing this movie to American Pie and other modern teenage-movies. You shouldn't do that. This film is very far above the ones named and totally in another category - you cannot compare such two extremely different movies with another! As for the acting: even though for some scenes, you normally should dislike some of the characters, you will love them anyway. Reason is that you know what happens is so realistic, you could have been any of the characters yourself. And this is what makes the movie worth 10 stars! Open your memory-box and take a time-warp back to when you were 15 (in case you were 15 in the early '90s or earlier).

Rated R for Language,Sexuality/Nudity and drinking - all involving teensI was curious to see the film The Last American Virgin.Since I am a teenager(im 15 years old) I enjoy teen movies.I do not just like newer ones such as American Pie or Superbad but I also like the classics such as Fast Times At Ridgemont High and Sixteen Candles.I wanted to see The Last American Virgin because I heard it was fairly realistic.I had heard that it was a remake of an Isreali film from 1978 entitled Lemon Popsicle.When I found the entire movie on youtube, I watched it.Unlike Last American Virgin which took place in the 1980's, Lemon Popsicle takes place in the late 1950's or early 1960's.The best part about this film is the 1950's soundtrack.There are plenty of hits from the fifties in this film.The film is about Benji and his two friends.Benji meets this girl who he falls in love with but this girl has the hots for his best friend who is the stud of the group.The first part of the film is like any other teen sex comedy, there are plenty of funny sexual situations that the characters get into.Then suddenly the film turns from comedy to drama as the girl Benji likes tells him that she is pregnant and his friend will not pay for the abortion.Benji then helps her out and confesses his love to her.You probably will not see the ending coming and I will not spoil it here.Lemon Popsicle is a teen sex comedy which is pretty funny at times and has a good amount of drama as well.It is a fairly hard to find film and has not been released on DVD yet.

If hollywood needed to learn from a script for 'The Last American Virgin', it would have come from this movie. The movie was made in the late 70's and depicts an early 60's Israel. The movie portrays teen-age situations, surrounded by a wonderfully rich soundtrack. In fact, the soundtrack is so good, you can just close your eyes and not watch the movie at all. HOWEVER, the soundtrack is thoughtfully mixed into the plot to provide a very nice effect.
