Casual Sex? (1988)

Light sex comedy, which I believe is based on a play, concerns two long time friends (Lea Thompson and Victoria Jackson) who go on vacation together to a California health resort, and learn important lessons about relationships with men. From what I've read on the internet it looks like this film was not well received critically, but I found it quite likable, even Andrew Dice Clay is likable in this film. The movie works because it doesn't try to hard, its light ruminations, not going for anything too deep, but the characters are sympathetic and you root for them. It also doesn't hurt that Lea Thompson was probably my first film crush when I was about five, and she looks great in this. ***
