Movie Info

Sand, surf, sun, and sex alternate in this bikini-clad movie about student lemmings heading to the sea at Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, the moment the last test is taken (and sometimes before). This time, Nelson (David Knell) and his three friends get into various types of innocent trouble while Nelson tries to evade his overbearing stepfather.

Just another predictable college themed movie where the guys go on spring break and crazy things happen. Some of it is funny, but most of it isn't. Overall, just okay.
