OK, where do I start? Like most party-themed movies, "Hot Dog" is light on plot and substance...but that is the gist of this thing. Farm kid Harlen Banks, competing in his first freestyle skiing event, picks up pretty girl, does pretty girl, proves he's a great skier, gets slaked by a very well put together Shannon Tweed (seeing her nude is almost enough reason to buy this thing), and ends leading his American buds against the European bad boy skiers in something called a ""Chinese Downhill"...as soon as the final scores are announced, you can figure out what's gonna happen, but the ride is mostly fun, with a few bumps here and there...and there's an interesting scene in a ski lift cab that any guy who's ever gone up in one dreams about...there are a lot of throwaway characters in this one, and it ain't for your kids to watch, that's for sure...but if you enjoy skiing, and like a movie that you don't have to think long and hard about but just enjoy, "Hot Dog" can fill the bill...but if you don't like gratuitous nudity, lightweight plots, actors who you might have trouble recognizing, or skiing...then you probably want to stay away from this one...although, I don't ski, and I found it entertaining and fun...Read full review
This is a classic ski move from the 80's. Have seen it so many times I had to have my own copy. All my friends want to borrow it. Even non-skiers love this movie for all of the 80's humor and activities, such as how broom ball in the old days!

Very good movie! Be careful with who watch it with as they may get ideas! On another hand...it's up to you on who watches it with you! Good music! More women showing themselves than men. All and all a man's movie!
