Movie Reviews

Newsweek - 6/10 by Janet MaslinAs a film, Lifeguard is romantic twaddle, but as sociology it's a spontaneous assault on a very American way of life.
Parallax View - 5/10 by Richard T. JamesonLifeguard belongs to that elect, if scarcely elite, class of film fondly designated "the nice little movie."
User Review - 10/10 by John SAnd love, oh there is love enough for two, in every morning, come let us taste it...
User Review - 10/10 by Brad FSam Elliott's mustache deserves an Oscar
User Review - 10/10 by Moss FThis film was promoted as being a romance movie for teenage girls, but it is anything but. A very good character study with Sam Elliott in one of his better roles.
User Review - 10/10 by Diana WSee my The Swimmer Review! Beautiful Existentialistic moody melancholy omipotent provoking...raw...deeper than itself oceanic glimpse of one life lost in the struggle.
User Review - 10/10 by Debbie HJust watched this c.1976 GEM! Sam Elliot is at his sexiest in this piece which highlights the 70's at its delightfully cheesiest! From the after-school-special instrumental interludes that crescendo when the lovers (shot up-close if at all to avoid showing any indecency) reach theirs...ahhh...the sunsets, the hair-dos, the lifeguards (30-yr-old Sam and his trainee, a perky 16ish Parker Stevenson) who tuck their t-shirts into their tiiiiiiiight jeans! It's almost too much! The budding teenage semi-virgin (played by a young Kathleen Quinlan) who falls for "Rick" (perfect!) the lifeguard because he "made love to her" once in his shack. She's a woman now, and she'll kill herself over him if she wants! But, due to a kismet-ridden meeting at Rick's high school reunion, he's now smitten once again by Cathy (Anne Archer)...and has to give some thought to a life with her and her kid. This movie is RICH with scenery that will make you spit whatever you're drinking out your nose: the driving scenes (Rick drives a bitchin' black Corvette) featuring the ultimate collection of parked 70's cars, restaurants/stores which no longer exist, the beachwear (you just have to see it to believe it)! It's a trip down a lane that is worth a couple of hours! Keeper! (Note: if you see this movie, pay special attention to the song playing during the love-making,"Our Love is Like the Wind, and it's Blowin' Me Away," - not that you could miss it! THE BEAUTIFUL HUMANITY!!!)
User Review - 10/10 by Troy CLove this movie, saw it as a kid and thought lifeguard was greatest job, modeled young adulthood after movie, saw it again later as an adult....damn did miss the point of the movie when I was a kid
User Review - 10/10 by Rick FI love the critic who said "this is a nice little movie". Yes, it is.
User Review - 10/10 by Alden SIt's Sam Elliott as his hunkiest in a cheesy 70's Southern California flick......what more do you need?
