Review: "Undercover" is a good soft-core thriller starring the very sexy Athena Massey. There are a few really good sex scenes in this tape. But beware of the DVD, it's rated R, unlike the unrated VHS. And the plot isn't too bad, actually.

Summary: Goddess Athena shines in soft-core murder mystery!
Review: A welcome surprise! Although this makes no pretensions to be anything more than soft-core porn, there was enough attention to detail and funding to make a movie pleasant to watch, with some semblance of a plot and enough characters and locales to make you pay attention even when there is no flesh on-screen. Athena Massey is a wonder to behold, and when Meg Foster (who is always a delight to see) tells her to strip, the combination of shock and insecurity on her face shows that she actually has some acting ability. There is a charming sequence set to music where Ms. Massey tries on a wide variety of hooker-wear, and in fact the number of outfits that she is shown either getting into or out of throughout the movie is as interesting and varied as the sexual encounters, which encompass straight sex, menage a trois, girl/girl, voyeurism, S&M/B&D et al. The end confrontation with the killer actually has some modicum of suspense. I put this up with "Paris, France" as an example of fine film-making in soft-core which stands up to repeated viewings, and not altogether unsuitable for couples to view.

Summary: Disappointment
Review: I agree with the other reviews. This so-called "Unrated" DVD is certainly not. It has been edited so heavily, it could almost have just a PG-13 rating. And the editing was so obvious. If you could find the original unedited version it would be worth it. Athena Massey is very nice to look at. But this heavily edited version just leaves you disappointed.

Review: I saw this movie on cable, the unrated version and I just about lost control! It is excellent, very sensual. THIS version fades to black at every love scene. Heavily edited and very disappointing. I hope the unrated version is available or coming to DVD. This one is not worth it.

Summary: They dare call this a collectors edition?
Review: I've seen the video, and don't remember it being classed as not rated, so naturally I didn't know this edition would be cut to shreads. The main question is how they can call this a collectors edition when in fact at some of the scenes are edited so you don't see anything.? You would figure if anything the collectors edition would be fairly complete... I usually don't read the reviews as I usually don't find them informitive... guess I will change my ways now...Your better off finding a Not Rated verison of the video, if you like this movie.

Summary: Undercover
Review: The so called NR dvd you see above is not NR. If the racey seens were left intact,as in the true NR version, this movie is hot as it were intended by the producers. This R rated version is like watching an R rated version of a XXX movie. Totally worthless

Summary: THIS IS NOT THE UNRATED VERSION !!!
Review: The story and acting is awful, but it worked for what it was intended. Problem is, the DVD is labeled as "unrated" when in fact it is the cut-to-pieces "R-rated" version. It's pretty much like watching one of those edited-for-TV things you see late at night on the USA network. No recall has been issued to my knowledge and its hardly worth the trouble anyway.

Summary: Athena baby, you're a hot goddess
Review: This comments refer to the VHS, unrated copy, not to this DVD. There is no unrated DVD for this movie, as far as I know.
If I wanted to watch something steamy, I would favor soft-core or erotic movies. Hard-core pornography is so idiotic that one either falls asleep or may risk dying of boredom. Dialogue is reduced to moaning on the part of male actors and the immortal line "oh yeah" on the female side. (Yawn.)
"Undercover" is a real gem of a movie, provided you watch the Unrated version. The sanitized copy is worthless. I will never understand those people who go out of their way to protect me and my immortal soul so I will not end up in Hell for eternity, or some such nonsense. Thanks anyway, but please, let me make up my own mind and decide if I want, should, or could watch one thing or another. And, please shut the door without slamming it on your way out.
"Undercover" portrays Athena Massey as a police woman who visits a bordello, disguised as a prostitute, in order to find a killer. It is a monument to devotion to a worthy cause and that is great, especially because she is very generous showing her beauty. Acting is good, plot is great, cinematography and direction are superb. Director Gregory Hippolyte handles his craft in a flawless way.
If you want to know what was cut off the unrated version, for starters, a three-way scene was completely deleted. I watched the movie twice on the satellite, the first time Unrated and then the version approved for children and toddlers and was appalled. Immediately I ordered the unrated copy on VHS and was happy ever after. So much for the results of censorship by well-intentioned a-holes. Other scenes were trimmed as well and everything was a mess.
This DVD, which I have not watched, is 93 minutes long. The Unrated version is 93 mintes long. So, who is lying to you, the lecherous consumer? You figure. Do not fall for the R-rating, because it will show a censored movie.
