Hole in One
2010
College guy skips class and hustles golf for a living. He gets hustled by
two doctors in a $50,000 bet. Unable to pay the loss, he has to get breasts
implanted, which the plastic surgeons use to advertise their clinic. The rest
of the film shows him simultaneously trying to adjust to breasts and trying to
get rid of them.
The idea is not very good, but is so original that the screenwriters might
have done something really crazy with it, but they did not. It is strictly a
by-the-numbers recitation of lame jokes and recycled plotline clichés from
previous movies.
There is a little topless nudity:
On our scale this is a D or even an E. This is a youthploitation comedy -
exactly my kind of movie - but it's such a poor one that I felt like I was in
an endurance contest while I watched it.
