Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

catholiccsi T.O.P.S. cries out for a remake. Sometimes described as a mere T & A film, T.O.P.S. is much more. It is a parody of "Forbidden Planet", "Carrie", M.A.S.H., and homage to "Animal House". It is a subtle animal rights film and a fine feminist satire of adolescence getting laid sagas. Decades after its original release, it still has the verve and vitality of classic films such a "The Palm Beach Story". That is not to say the filmmakers or anyone else beyond the emotional age of a sixteen-year-old boy or Hugh Hefner took it seriously. It is in its way as good as the famous "Animal House" made a year earlier, though that too is a fine work. Neither work takes itself too seriously. They are juvenile jokes with mild titillation aimed at pre-teens. Anyone over 13-years-old might find the gags a tad weak, of course. No matter, most adults will enjoy this classic holiday film after too much food and wine on Thanksgiving evening when the cold fog rolls in over town and one has not desire for serious viewing. My family watched it at Thanksgiving. However, the editing, cinematography, acting, direction, production design, and iconographic structure are professional. Lindsey Bloom leads a great cast as the protagonist of the film. The other cast members are not as well known as she is. I think that at least one posed in the magazine "Playboy" back when its founder was still young enough not to look too silly with just over child age models.What is not always well known is that woman were important creators of this film. With a brilliant feminist satirical screenplay written by W. Terry Davis, Cheri Chaffaro, and Joan Buchannan, H.O.T.S, enjoys playful direction by Gerald Seth Sindell. Mr. Sindell and Ms. Davis along with Don Schain and others co-produced this classic romantic comedy. I think it is at least as good as M.A.S.H. I must mention that this work is beautifully photographed and edited. It is a fine film about the late sixties. I think that everyone worked at a high level to make this film It is a small masterwork. I would like seeing it remade because it still has potential for improvement and updating.

Scarecrow-88 Look, it's simple. I knew what I was seeking after when I decided on renting H.O.T.S. and got exactly what I hoped for. I can't imagine what a person would hope to get out of the movie besides what the cover and synopsis spell out quite loudly.The mistreated and downtrodden college girls at FU University(..ha ha), picked on by the rich gals at the local sorority, decide to form their own little club, repairing a bedraggled and unkempt house, naming themselves H.O.T.S.(each letter named after the founding girls' last names). This is where the two dueling sisterhoods battle for supremacy over the university jocks, initiating pranks and other humiliating methods against each other. The final showdown will be a striptease tag football game where once and for all the ultimate winner will be determined.You get plenty of the usual familiar traits which accompany these kind of sex comedies, including plentiful nudity, tons of (less than subtle)sexual innuendo, sophomoric humor, the wet T-shirt contest, a cat fight, animal mascots, shenanigans involving the faculty, among other things. I've read that H.O.T.S. basically follows(..or is inspired by)National Lampoon's Animal House, but it's more in line with something like The Cheerleaders, basically young adults living it up like there's no tomorrow, all smiles as beautiful boys and girls hook up, engaging in lasciviousness and immorality. Those at HOTS will do whatever it takes to make the grade and embarrass their rivals by any means possible.You have bumbling mafioso escape convicts attempting to recover their loot inside the attic of the HOTS' house, antics involving a hot air balloon, a kidnapped mascot bear who goes free invading the sorority's headquarters, a "pleasantly plump" member of HOTS and her nerdy boyfriend, and Danny Bonaduce. You'd think Bonaduce would just have a glorified cameo, but his role is actually more extensive..he has his own band, is often the butt of a number of cruel(..but hilarious)jokes(..including a special smackerooni at a kissing booth, and a practical sex joke involving the HOTS' mascot seal) and there's some poking fun at his member.Perfectly grating soundtrack and numerous Playboy bunnies, their breasts exposed for our viewing pleasure. Striking similarities to Revenge of the Nerds in some respects.

Ted Michael Morgan I watched this film with my family over a long Thanksgiving holiday weekend. I am thankful that someone insisted that we watch it, though I didn't pay much attention until the end of the film when a head shearing seems promised, but, alas, doesn't happen.On the other hand, I watched this movie some years later and loved its liveliness, absurdity, sparkle, and just plain fun. I think that the film has a female tone. Women are not exploited in it even though I am sure that someone might think that the movie is pure exploitation. I think the movie plays with tropes of the period.I keep thinking someone ought to remake it. And flesh out some of the implications in the original.

EVOL666 H.O.T.S. is not for those that want hardcore porn. Instead, this film is a precursor to many 80s era cult-classic college/frat films like REVENGE OF THE NERDS and PORKY'S and a post-cursor to the world-renown ANIMAL HOUSE. A good time if you dig a lot of big-titted 70s/80s Playboy type chicks and cheezy slap-dick comedy - but nothing too notable if you wanna use it as whack-material...H.O.T.S. is an "unauthorized" sorority of sexy outcasts doing battle against the popular and trendy Pi girls. This one has pranks, an Aunt Jemima-ish house keeper, and even an over-heated robot that makes it relatively fun viewing if boobies are your "thing"...Well...I like tits as much (or probably more...) as the next guy - but with all the sleazy sh!t that I've seen, I couldn't help but wish for a few hardcore scenes to make this one truly worthwhile. I knew it wouldn't happen, but I still wish that H.O.T.S. had a bit more sex and a bit less cheeze. Not quite as notable as NERDS, PORKY'S, or ANIMAL HOUSE, but worth a look for fans of those types of films...7/10P.S... and I forgot - this one has consummate douche-rag Danny Bonaduce in probably the best role of his career outside of his "reality show"...
