| User ReviewKeith PNow this is one sleazy piece of celluloid. It's one of those movies that tries hard to be sexy, but just fails on every possible level. Racket Girls (AKA Pin-Down Girl, AKA Blonde Pickup) is more or less an exploitation movie, with the exploitative part being filled by very large breasts and women's wrestling. Most of these gals couldn't even get a job doing ads for J.C. Penney if they wanted to. A good half an hour to an hour of the movie is devoted to the lame wrestling and you're struggling like hell to get yourself through it and move on to something else. The plot is hackneyed and tries to be a gangster movie at times, but overall, it's just a sleazefest, and not a particularly good one. Thankfully the crew at Mystery Science Theater 3000 did a nice little riff on it, and that's the only way I'd recommend this boring piece of crap. |
| User ReviewWes SSlow and boring. MST3K could barely make this one watchable. The characters are horrible and the story is uninteresting. |
| User ReviewBill BAnother film I didn't actually watch but with the MST3K guys it was very funny. Somethings are better left unseen. Just ask the saltified chicks from Sodom & Gamera. |
| User ReviewJoe MWhoa! Unbelievably bad film of the alleged female wrestling circuit as a front for organized crime. Saw it as a MST3K film which barely redeemed this descent in to inanity!!! |
