Sadly Over-hyped

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

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

This has to be one of the dumbest movies ever filmed, and if I give it a barely acceptable rating (six out of ten) it's more for the nostalgia with which I now remember it, rather than for its filmic qualities, which are almost non-existent. The only thing I remember, and for which I forgive his unfortunate scenes of action, is the presence of several Playboy bunnies, who with problems try to act and give life to one-dimensional characters. Seeing the film again, almost thirty years later, the only possible defense to such a mess is the presence of Donna (Dona Spier), Taryn (Hope Marie Carlton), Edy (Cynthia Brimhall) and Panther (Roberta Vasquez), but I imagine that it would be difficult for someone today to invest their money in bringing together a group of women as little equipped for the performance as those mentioned.The bad acting direction as much as film seems almost amateur. Even a graduate of a film school would achieve better results, but I suppose in the eighties testosterone or a group of breasts and hips could replace any gray matter. Actually, the movie would hardly qualify with a two out of ten.

Once again, this Sidaris film seems to have everything: a fit and quite believable as an agent Dona Speir, an incredibly adorable Hope Marie Carlton (on a scale of 1 to 10, her smile is a 12), a gorgeous Roberta Vasquez, international locations (Paris, Las Vegas, Texas, Hawaii, etc.), LOTS of explosions, outrageous gadgets, etc. The mix should have been explosively hot, but sadly it's only lukewarm. The execution of the formula is mechanical, as if Sidaris was simply ticking off action scenes from a list. There are very few funny lines (the best belongs to Speir: when she's accused of being jealous, she says "there is not a jealous bone in my body - check it out for yourself", and she disrobes!) and the one fight scene, involving Harold Diamond, is terrible. But to end this comment on a positive note, John Aprea gives a slick performance as the arch-villain of the story. (**)

I have to agree with the previous comment, It was late and nothing else was on. I couldn't help but watch this horrible movie! It was unbelievably dated (which previously mentioned.. could not be helped) but MAN.. Was it horrible! It's like a car wreck. You know that you shouldn't watch but you cant help it! I live in Hawaii and this just makes me laugh! I love how the girls all try to be sexy and the soft core porn is hysterical. What cracks me up the most is that they are saying that they are on Maui.. when they are really on Oahu. The wardrobing is also another comedic factor. But then again.. that can't be fixed. I have no idea what they were thinking when this waste of time was made!

I just had to comment on this film. To start, there is of course absolutely nothing special about this babes w/ guns flick to the countless others that Cinemax shows on their midnight line up. But what differentiates Picasso Trigger from most is the inventive weapons.Example #1: Attaching a bomb to a boomerang to blow up the bad guy.Example #2: Attaching a timed bomb to a remote control car to blow up the bad guy when the target is at grenade throwing distance.This is what makes movies like these great to watch. It just goes to prove really bad movies can be entertaining and stimulating.
