Review of Paradise

Paradise (1982)
10/10
The next best thing to being Kevin Kline.
11 November 2012
Unless you're Kevin Kline, there's probably zero chance of seeing Phoebe Cates in the raw for real without the risk of a custodial sentence; the best that you can do is to get hold of an uncut copy of Cates' movie debut Paradise, a desert adventure/coming of age movie in which the gorgeous actress gives her fans, and her lucky co-star Willy Aames, plenty to get excited about.

The delectable Miss Cates plays 19th Century English traveller Sarah, who finds herself lost in the desert with fellow teenager David (Aames) after their camel train is attacked by a ruthless gang of slave traders led by 'The Jackal'. Narrowly escaping capture on several occasions, Sarah and David eventually make their way to the coast where they spend their time frolicking in the sea, watching their pet chimp pull his pud, and—once their hormones kick in—getting jiggy with each other.

This storyline, blatantly ripped off from the Brooke Shields hit The Blue Lagoon, ensures that fabulous Phoebe gets her kit off at regular intervals, proving that she is more than just a pretty face—she's got a rockin' bod as well!! Cates bares her awesome ass under a cascade of warm water in a cave, exposes her breasts as she examines them for size, and gives brief glimpses of bush as she goes for a naked underwater swim. She looks so yummy, it's no wonder that 'The Jackal' continues his search for Sarah to the bitter end...

To be honest, as an adventure flick, Paradise is mediocre at best, but any film with this much Cates on display is guaranteed full marks from me.
