Fun in the sun!

I don't know what "Yikes!" is complaining about. I thought "Cloud 9" was a really fun movie. It's refreshing to see a film that has cute girls and pretty California locations that is not a porno film. This movie is a great couples DVD because it's sexy but not in an explicit way. And it's nice to see Burt Reynolds in a starring role again. D. L. Hughley and Paul Rodriguez are funny, and Paul Wessley is amiably dim as Reynold's surfer dude helper. As for the girls, Angie Everhart and Gabrielle Reece are a good match in the final game, and the four newcomers are sassy, funny and just plain gorgeous. This is a feel good, old fashioned movie like they don't make anymore. Buy it. You'll like it!
