Since life has given her lemons, Alex is going to make lemonade. Shortly after moving into her dorm room she develops a sexual longing for handsome, brainy suite-mate Eddy. But super-hunk Stuart, Alex's other suite-mate, has been trying to seduce her. Things really get complicated when Eddy begins to experience a sexual awakening, and discovers he's attracted to Stuart. Before long the whole affair is so messy, the threesome will have to find some way to resolve their lust filled triangle in order to maintain their friendship. [More]

Mildly charming and occasionally sexy but shallow and silly menage at trois tale set at UCLA dormitory.

The film is so proud of its alleged daring that it even begins with a dictionary definition of the word 'deviant.' 'Sitcom' would have been more like it.

The movie often plays more like a wisecracking sitcom -- Saved by the Bell with four-letter words -- than a wise romantic roundelay.

A minor exploitation flick gussied up as an important piece of commentary on sexual politics.

The three become a giggly and rather insufferable bunch.

Threesome, by falling into the common trap of mistaking pretentiousness for substance, loses its way early on.
