Pool Girl [DVD]

Having seen Alyssa in Charmed, I was interested in some of her other work. This is a good film with some 'strange' performances from Malcolm McDowell, Robert Downey Jr. and Sean Penn. Alyssa always looks good though!

Funny film

Great movie!

"Pool Girl" is a comedy/drama with a addictive quality. On first viewing it seems uneven and uninteresting, but a balanced and talented cast help you climb inside the characters heads. The film follows a day in the life of pool cleaner Hugo. She has 40 clients - including a mob boss who doesn't want disapointing - and one pair of hands. So she asks her gambling mother and father to help her through the day, but theres still time for unbalanced film directers, a hitch hiker with a shoe fetish, that all important horse race, and a heart warming romance.All in all "Pool Girl" is a cleverly written and enjoyable film.

Don't be misled by the excellent cast. They never manage to lift the film from the uninteresting level. I don't understand why they agreed to do this film. The personalities are superficial and implausible. The only redeeming feature is Alyssa Milano, who in a few sequences manages to show what a great actress she is.

Alyssa Milano , she is just one of my favourite actors and I want every thing of her,the film I did not see by this date, I buy to much

Didn't really enjoy the film, though the actors were great. Story was too confusing and the ending was a bit random.

A girl named Hugo (Alyssa Milano) runs a pool company and has scheduled to clean 44 pools. Her mother Menerva (Cathy Moriarty) is obsessed with gambling and her father Henry (Malcolm McDowell) takes drugs. On the way ashe finds herself taking a mysterious hitch hyker (Robert Downey jr) who murdered someone for over acting with her. She also falls in love with one of her new customers (Patrick Dempsey) who is suffering from ALS which keeps him trapped in a wheelchair. Can she manage to fill up someones pool by 6:30?
