There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

The first must-see film of the year.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

When reading up on the Teen Sex Comedy genre I would always find references to the Israeli Lemon Popsicle movies as being landmarks in the genre,but sadly not able to track any of the series down. Talking to my dad about what DVDs he had recently picked up,I was surprised to learn that he had tracked down an uncut box set of the Popsicle flicks!,which led to me finally tasting the first popsicle.The plot: Bonding over music,school friends Benzi, Bobby and Huey start to bond over another subject:losing their virginity. Looking for an easy way out,the lads get a nymphomaniac and a prostitute to help them out. Whilst keeping his sexual activity secret, Benzi learns that school jock Momo has gotten fellow student Niki. Secretly having had a crush on Niki,Benzi decides to become Niki's "rock" when she goes for an abortion.View on the film:Putting a million Israeli dollars down on a toe-tapping 50's soundtrack,co-writer/(along with Eli Tavor) director Boaz Davidson & cinematographer Adam Greenberg put their rose-tinted glasses on a version of the 50's that has gone awry,where the Bubble Gum Pop is used as a backdrop against kinky sex in steamy locations. Corrupting the sweet Pop tunes, Davidson offers up a steamy side order of raunchy action,which whilst not being "hardcore",does feature some surprisingly graphic thrusting.Following Benzi,Huey and Bobby chase after every girl that catches their eyes,the screenplay by Davidson and Tavor skip over any non- sexual related interest that the trio have,causing the friendship to be left with a hollow centre. Helping to make the films sudden change to an "issue" movie run smooth, Yftach Katzur dazzles the film with a charming sincerity as Benzi,as the first lemon popsicle melts.

Watching this movie is like listen to a CD with all the great songs of the 50s: Little Richard, The Chordettes, Bill Haley and the Comets, Jerry Lee Lewis, and so many many more. It was the best soundtrack I have ever heard in a movie. Nineteen hits!The movie is the original that The Last American Virgin was based upon. If you like to see the originals as I do, then you can't miss this. Did I mention the awesome soundtrack?Yftach Katzur was fantastic as Benz. He and his two buddies, Momo (Jonathan Sagall) and Hughie (Zachi Noy), are on a mission to get laid. They get involved in several situations, and Benz just seems to be luckless in this department.The main theme of the movie is Benz's infatuation with Niki (Anat Atzmon). He loses her immediately to Momo, and things go downhill. The ending is a heart-breaker.Yes, there is a sequel, supposedly seven of them!

Since my early teenage years the title of this movie was in my, and of course in everyone of my friends', ears. First to say, I always wanted to watch this film but never had the guts to do so back then. Haven forgotten the title as years passed, I'm now 23 years old and just watched it for the first time - and I have to say, I'm totally stunned! The story line is very down to earth and pure realistic; I would guess about 90% of everyone watching this movie has had some of the same experience in his early teenage years. So don't get it wrong: this isn't comedy or a sex-film at all; it's pure drama - and when you know this in forehand, you will get, what you are searching for. I've read many reviews about people comparing this movie to American Pie and other modern teenage-movies. You shouldn't do that. This film is very far above the ones named and totally in another category - you cannot compare such two extremely different movies with another! As for the acting: even though for some scenes, you normally should dislike some of the characters, you will love them anyway. Reason is that you know what happens is so realistic, you could have been any of the characters yourself. And this is what makes the movie worth 10 stars! Open your memory-box and take a time-warp back to when you were 15 (in case you were 15 in the early '90s or earlier).

A couple of teenagers have a little sex on the beach in the 1960s. That's all. They say they are fifteen while one of the actors is really twenty-five. Maybe this movie was somewhat revolutionary in 1978 in its way of touching `taboo' topics but I can't imagine that at that time anything shown in Esmiko Limon was regarded as tabooish.Shallow dialogues are mixed with disco music that is even shallower. The selection of songs doesn't involve anything but the very very well-known `classics' that are still heard on every second radio station today. The plot of American Pie is not much different but it is at least a little bit funny. Eskimo Limon is dull, flat and not aesthetic. Almost unbelievable that it had six sequels!
