For what's supposed to be a low budget movie, this movie really rocks. It's got just the right amount of humor, skin, and romance.I love these late '80s to mid '90s college/high school themed romantic comedies. The girls for some reason are lot better looking than the girls you see in B movie these days. In this movie, all the girls are good looking.I don't know what makes these movies so charming, but the characters are cute, and acting is very decent. I remember these movies from USA Up All Night days. It's hard to describe what makes this movie work, but if you see it, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.Sweet movie that's really worth a watch.

Sweet, but clumsy and hapless nerd Bill Higgins (a likable portrayal by Steven Cooke) befriends drunken leprechaun Lepkey (an irritatingly hearty turn by Gary Kluger, who speaks in a horribly fake overdone Irish accent), who helps Bill win over the favor of his cheerleader dream girl Krissi Schackler (tasty long-haired blonde dish Lezlie Z. McGraw). However, arrogant macho jock Tony (badly overplayed to the obnoxious hilt by buff hunk Rick McDowell) doesn't take it lightly that Bill wants Krissi for his own. Writer/director Michael Paul Girard maladroitly covers all the essential so-wrong-they're-paradoxically-right craptastic low-budget schlock flick bases: crummy acting from a game, but lame no-name cast, tin-eared dialogue, crude and leering jokes about such things as sex, condoms, and losing one's virginity, lousy (far from) special effects, a few dippy romantic musical montages, one-note cardboard characters, a truly off-the-wall last third, clunky cinematography, and, most importantly, a gloriously ludicrous "you gotta be kidding me!" premise that comes complete with the inevitable dopey surprise ending. Best and most gut-busting protracted dumb gag: Bill finds himself trapped in Krissi's panties after Lepkey accidentally shrinks him down to miniature size. Moreover, there's also the token obligatory yummy gratuitous girls' locker room shower set piece and a cool'n'bouncy soft-rock soundtrack. A hilariously horrendous hoot and a half.

Back some 10 plus years ago, USA had late-nite movie showings, on I think Saturday nights...it may have been Friday, Saturdays and Sundays, but it's been so long I forget. Anywho, it was called USA Up All Night, and it show-cased some of the worst, some of the best, and some of the best "so-bad-it's-good" flicks out there. From amazing flicks like The Evil Dead and The Toxic Avenger series to movie's that are most probably crap like Loose Screws and Frogtown 2. Nevertheless what movie they were showing there was an audience, a very select audience who ate everything that USA Up All Night dished out right up. And the movie that I remember from way back in the day that truly left an impression on my fragile little mind was the flick Getting Lucky.Getting Lucky revolves around a dweeby loser, who sucks at acting, I mean who's fallen for a hot cheerleader. Obviously with his loser status there's no way on Earth he'll snag her. One day while on his routine recyclable bottle hunt he finds a bottle with a little Leprechaun stuck inside. Well, Lepkey the Leprechaun who resides in the beer bottle is Loser's way to get the girl. Lepkey's only way of getting out of his alcoholic prison is to grant our Hero/Loser three wishes. And with a side-plot of the school jock/ladies man being a jerk to Bill (our hero/loser), the movie brings even more cheesy entertainment to the table.Getting Lucky is most known for the scene where Bill is shrunk down to microscopic (not really that small) size and gets stunk inside his love's, Krissi's, underpants. With him grabbing onto huge pubes, and Krissi's orgasmic reactions, it's a scene you'll most likely never forget. Getting Lucky is a cheesy flick, with cheesy acting, cheesy laughs and cheesy nudity. But this is where it also shines, at least the movie does deliver this cheesy, "so-bad-it's-good" feel. The ending wound up going on for far too long, with some whacked out dude who rides horses by standing with one foot on each comes into play, for god knows what reason. But it was so out of left field it was kinda funny.I'm glad I revisited this piece of crap film, and it delivered almost exactly what I was hoping it would. It was goofy, had some nice forced sex, which actually was pretty realistic if you were getting some in high school, and moved along a decent enough pace. I just hoped Lepkey would've been in it more and was more of a drunk. He wasn't unfortunately, he was just helpful, that's it. But whatever, if you remember and loved USA Up All Night and have the ability to watch this flick, I'd urge you to do so.

What an utterly, utterly bizarre film. I bought this on DVD for a couple of bucks because it looked like a pretty cool Revenge of the Nerds knock-off... but I got so much more! I got leprechauns that are small but are conveniently trapped in bottles so there's no need for special effects! I got horses that are in the film for no reason other than horses are cool! I got a house-sized set that was meant to be a girl's pubic region (wouldn't it smell in real life?). And of course I got a barbarian (!?) Yes a barbarian. I don't know why. But I got a barbarian.And I won't even mention that tennis racquet (too late...) Was it a good film? On its budget, yes, very enjoyable. I rubbed my eyes comically until I got a headache and had to lie down with a cold flannel. Definitely worth the ten bucks I paid for it. Check this out if you get the chance, there's absolutely nothing else like it out there.And it has a freakin' BARBARIAN!
