Beach Blanket Bingo Ratings & Reviews
- Noah Austin BrooksSeptember 23, 2025"Beach Blanket Bingo," directed by William Asher in 1965, falls short of expectations in its execution and entertainment value. The film, which is part of the popular beach party movie genre of the time, lacks the charm and coherence that made its predecessors appealing. The plot revolves around a group of teenagers enjoying sun-soaked beach adventures filled with music, romance, and surfing. However, the humor often feels forced, and the character development is shallow, leaving little for the audience to connect with. Moreover, the film's reliance on cliché scenarios and predictable outcomes detracts from its overall impact, rendering it a forgettable experience in the realm of 1960s cinema.
- EmpowermentJuly 3, 2025The classic best of all the California Beach movies of the 60's ever made. A unique fantasy world that never actually existed but might have been nice if it did
