Dirty O'Neil

Dirty O'Neil (1974) is a movie I recently watched on Amazon Prime. The storyline is about a police officer who uses his sex appeal to get in good with all kinds of ladies. As a police officer there seems to be ladies around every corner and every one wants him. Will O'Brien ever be more than a womanizer? This movie is codirected by Leon Capetanos (Summer Run) and Lewis Teague (Cujo) and stars Morgan Paull (Blade Runner), Art Metrano (Police Academy 2 & 3), Jeane Manson (The Piano Player) and Katie Saylor (Supervan). The storyline for this picture is painful. For being a ladies man Officer O'Neil seemed to consistently struggle talking with the ladies. It felt like a writer who was a non-ladies man writing about a ladies man. There are all of the great nude scenes you'd expect from this era - shower scenes, locker room scenes, peeping-tom scenes, soft sex scenes, topless swimming scenes and every other soft porn scenario. I will say the final shootout came out of nowhere and was extremely entertaining and actually raised this grade an entire point for me for what was an underwhelming film until that point. I'd score this a 5/10 and would watch it if you can't find anything else interesting.
