I liked it. It could have been much worse and turned into an unexpected drama. It could have dropped the nudity and went for more laughs.Let's see. It has gratuitous nudity since the girls were strippers before becoming volleyball players.... Full review

**** Spoilers within... ****There is a point in the movie where you visibly see Burt Reynolds get the idea of taking bubble-headed strippers and making them into champion beach volleyball players. To anyone who has played any sort of volleyball,... Full review

I saw this movie and it was terrible. Not only does it not show any skin from the female volleyball players (which it should) but the acting is horrible. I expected a train wreck with some skin but what I... Full review

directed by astonishing hack Harry Basil ( The 4th Tenor , My 5 Wives , Funky Monkey ), Cloud 9 is every bit as atrocious as its DVD case plainly implies.....it looked like Burt Reynolds was about to enjoy a resurgence on par with John Travolta's Pulp Fiction comeback.....Directing a Rumble is a 2-minute look at Cloud 9 's embarrassingly inept 35-second "fight scene";.... ...
