Editorial Review:

Description:
Sam Elliot drew waves of accolades for his sensitive and sexy portrayal of aging lifeguard Rick Carlson, who's compelled to reassess his life and career as a professional lifeguard. To keep things status quo or pursue things status-conscious - that's Carlson’s dilemma. It's an agonizing decision compounded on one side by an adoring beach groupie (Quinlan) and on the other by a former high school flame (Archer) that's game for rekindling, but only if he's serious about trading in his swimsuits for three-piece suits.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So Bad it's Excellent
Get a load of Sam Elliott driving his Corvette barefoot! I did things like that in the 70s, and would probably still do them today if I could get away with it. It's the kind of stuff that makes a bad movie great!

And a movie worth owning for its historical value alone. Plus, it's amusing and excruciating at the same time.

This five-star pick is an absolutely horrible movie, a shallow tale, one that I'll bet Sam Elliott is embarassed by (understandably), and probably posterity's ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I Love Sam Elliott
I was introduced to Sam Elliott in this movie (I was a high school sophomore then)and have been a FAN ever since. I love his voice and he is just plain sexy! I never pass up a Sam Elliott movie, especially this one!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great drama about the summer of '75 in southern California
Filmed in 1975, "Lifeguard" relays the story of an aging L.A. lifeguard (Sam Elliott) during the summer of '75.

This is heightened when he attends his 15-year high school reunion where he reunites with a recently-divorced ex-flame (Anne Archer). To complicate matters Elliot runs into a cute underage teen on the beach (Kathleen Quinlin) who makes him feel like an Adonis.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent movie
This was an excellent movie. For me, it was full of nostalgia. A real feel good movie.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Thin, predictable, not even a good waste of time
This movie is part of the Joan Collins series. Sadly it is the opposite of the glamorous image that she portrays. I have yet to see a more
predictable or boring film. Anne Archer: Where is she? I see a young teen sexy bikini girl who gets hot for a lifeguard, must have him or at least make love. I see a classmate trying to lure a lifeguard to sell Jaguars and make money. I see a rookie lifeguard trying to fit in with
Elliott. I see and feel boredom all the way through. I have a good copy that ... Read More
