Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Sensual and extremely funny
Review: Eggert plays a spoiled rich girl who wants to get back at her parents for not treating her right. Along comes Haim, who with Corey Feldman who are just looking for fun. Against Feldman's wishes Haim starts up an affair with Eggert and it just gets more steamy as the film goes on. Finally Haim relizes that Feldman is right and decides that he wants to break up, but Eggert is not so willing and decides that if she can't have him no one will.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: One or two hot sex scenes; that's about it.
Review: First note: This is not the same film as the Jeff Bridges/Tommy Lee Jones thriller about a mad IRA bomber. This movie came much earlier.

I remember when this movie first came out in the theatres. It looked ridiculous then and it certainly does now. Give credit to the two Coreys, Haim and Feldman, for going against their usual goody-two-shoes pairing and delving into such decidedly sleazy material as this. And give credit to Nicole Eggert, who has an undeniable allure and does Basic Instinct, Jr. here with remarkable lack of inhibition.

But do these elements make a good movie? Not really, considering Haim's watery presence as a leading man and the ridiculous characterizations and situations. Feldman fares better as a punk so sleazy that you just have to smile at his behaviour. The finale is especially wanting, a lacklustre bedroom confrontation that is strictly made-for-TV in its staging and dialogue. So all that's left is a surprisingly erotic first encounter between Eggert and Haim, some snippets of nudity, and a slightly disturbing feeling for the audience. Like the film Kids and Bully, this movie makes you into a voyeur into an explicit portrayal of teen sex lives, though unlike these two films, Blown Away is so cartoonish in execution and tone that it qualifies mostly as a conduit for the eye candy of Haim and Eggert.

Summary: This movie Blows...
Review: Hey I love this movie but the 93 minute version is still better. I mean 2 extra minutes of Nicole nude is much better, don't you think?

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Ok but still want the unrated version

Summary: THE MOVIE THAT INTRODUCED ME TO NICOLE EGGERT!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I didn't know who she was. I never watched Charles in Charge or even Baywatch! I saw this movie on either HBO or Cinemax while in college, and just fell in love with it (AND her).
Nothing in this world like watching a young couple like Haim and Eggert get down and dirty throughout the movie. It made me kind of sad because at the time I had wished I could meet a girl like that, but I have had the kind of sex Haim and "the Egg" had here with other girls in my recent past. :-)
Without giving the movie away though, even I have to admit I felt that Nicole's character, Megan, got what she deserved at the end of the movie.
I personally was "blown away" by the discovery that there actually was an UNRATED version of this movie! I thought "how much MORE could they show?!" The 2 minutes in the unrated version prove to show a LOT more then the R version.
Ladies and gentlemen, all I have to say is; if you like Nicole Eggert, you'll LOVE this movie! No lover of "the Egg" should be without this movie! Now they need to put it out on DVD, and, unlike other low-budget movies recently hitting deev, do it RIGHT (movie trailers, maybe a few deleted scenes, etc.)

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: No match for the Unrated Edition
Review: I give it two stars for the 2 minutes they cut out of this version. I'm holding off from buying this because once you've seen the unrated version, everything else pales in comparison.
It's tough to watch something knowing that there have been edits right where they shouldn't be. Damn this country's puritanical standards!! Sure, keep sex and nudity away from the kids, but not from adults for chrissake!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hot, Hot ,Hot, Nicole eggert
Review: I have watched Nicole Eggert since she was a skinny legged kid on Charles In Charge, where I figured Scott Baeo made he say ouch for the first time and then in Baywatch where she was a hot little number, but never did I ever expect to see her pinned up against a wall with her bare chest showing and faking extreme pleasure. She is what makes this movie a 5 star. She is worth buying or renting the movie. Nicole eggert Fan. Don- old man with good taste.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: COOL
Review: I LOVED THIS COOL MOVIE

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: cheesy but not bad
Review: I saw this movie, and enjoyed it, I've always had a weakness for Corey Haim. It's just an entralling film. Not exactly "Apollo 13" but halfway decent.
