After months of this movie being recorded on my DVR and not watching it, I finally decided to do so right now. It's an amiable look at a 32-year-old title character (Sam Elliott) during summer as he meets his teen assistant (Parker Stevenson), encounters a teen girl (Kathleen Quinlan) who's smitten with him, and also sees his former high school girlfriend (Anne Archer) at a 15-year-high school-reunion. It's during all of the above that he faces a choice between wanting to remain at his chosen profession or doing something more financially lucrative not to mention socially beneficial. This movie has both funny scenes and lines as well as some dramatic spots though not too intense, that's for sure! Despite some questionable material, Lifeguard is worth a look.
