That was an excellent one.

Such a frustrating disappointment

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Miracle Beach is a 1980s rom com that tells the tale of a lovelorn man who is in love with a girl. Problem is he can't convince this girl that he has feelings for her and of course he stumbles across a mysterious bottle one day that unleashes a beautiful quirky young woman who happens to be a genie. So she helps the lovelorn man to win the woman of his dreams but he ends up falling in love with the genie and has to decide who he really loves?Now I haven't seen this film in years and I was just thinking about it now. Yes its super cheesy and yes the premise is very bizarre in a way think of it like that TV show with Larry Hagman I Dreamed Of Jennie and you get this flick.I suggest you track it down and see what you think of it.

**possible spoilers**?Oh how I love this film! Beautiful location, beautiful beaches, and oh yeah, beautiful girls! There is definitely lots of eye-candy in this one. But Ami Dolenz (Jeannie) steals the whole show. She is such a sweetheart in this movie, and I'm sure others think so too. She has the sweetest voice and I think she's pretty darn HOT! What a lucky guy Dean (Scotty) Cameron is (or was), first receiving the genie bottle from Pat Morita, who plays a beach bum at first but at the films end surprises all of us, and later on at the end, falling in love with Dolenz.There is quite a bit of nudity in this movie, but hardly any sex, it's more of an adult R-rated comedy than those cheesy (but good) Friday After Dark adult flicks that are found on Cinemax. And I have to say again, that Ami Dolenz was and still is the sweetest and most beautiful woman in the world today. Also, the "get off my train" guy from the movie Ghost is in this too, he plays the old antique collector, whom Scotty confronts several times and asks about the bottle he had obtained. Scotty's friends play pretty good roles too. I'd say there's a pretty good cast in this movie, although not spectacular (save for Cameron, Dolenz, and Morita).I rate this movie a 10/10, I absolutely love it to death (so what if it's a B-type movie and never really got good reviews...it has girls, girls, and MORE GIRLS!), and a surprise ending. Go watch it now!!! You won't be disappointed!!!

Over 54% of IMDB viewers rated this movie at least 7 out of 10, and 25% rated it 10 out of 10. So a lot of people do like this movie! If you do not expect a reality-based movie, with an intellectual script and complex plot, and if you just view this film with a light-hearted shallowness in order to have some fun, then all is fine. For the guys there is plenty of eye candy, especially in the R-rated version, but this is not simply a cheap C-grade sex movie because there is actually a nice message about love and romance and if you are open to this then you will feel good at the end of the film.Ami Bluebell Dolenz is amazingly cute and beautiful, perfect for the role of a genie. Her middle name fits perfectly and is probably every man's dream woman. There are some stupid lines and bad acting (but not from the main characters) and overall it is a good flick, especially for the guys and for women who do not feel threatened by seeing so many gorgeous bodies.The addition of Pat Morita (from 'Karate Kid' fame) and Vincent Schiavelli (the subway ghost in 'Ghost' and so many other films) puts this film up a few more notches. Unfortunately the video cover for this film portrays it as a cheap sex film, which you may find it to be if sexy bodies plus light comedy are an unpleasant combination for you. For the rest of us, we can have a few laughs with a few romantic dreams.

I've seen this movie and I found it good but not great. The story of a genie coming out of a bottle is not that original, although I like the idea of making this movie during present-days. Besides, it was quite comic and the shocking appearance of Dolenz really help the title from being a regular one...
