Risky Business 2004....actually

Rating: 9/10 (12 September 2004)

I saw Risky Business when it was first released. Tom Cruise was my hero! For a long time I was mesmerized by that movie, like most young men at the time.
2004 I saw The Girl Next Door when it was released, and I had no idea what it was about...at all! About half way through, however, I started to think and compare this movie to Risky Business.
The music....the attitude (fuck it) I mean....this was just an updated version. Well when the porn stars came on board to shoot the video and everything was spinning out of control...I knew this movie was either a hack...or a tribute.
The movie was not quite as fun as Risky Business....the characters were not built up as strong, especially the lead. But I really liked this movie! It still makes you feel good, and wish that you were the young man in question. After all...I think most young men, and older, have fantasized about having a porn star fall in love with them.
Good movie!!!
