After finding the 5th Lemon Popsicle (LP) flick to be surprisingly strong,I started to hope that the series would be nearing the end on a good note. After finding the army-based 4th to be poor,I was disappointed to find,that for this entry I would have to sail out to sea.
The plot:
Walking on the beach with his pal Hughie, Benzi spots a girl that he fancies. Learning that she lives on a cruise ship which her dad is the captain of.Benzi and Hughie join the crew,as a diamond heist takes place on-board.
View on the film:
Going out to sea for the first time without franchise creator Boaz Davidson being involved anywhere,co-writer/(with Sam Waynberg and Eli Tavor) director Dan Wolman and cinematographer Ilan Rosenberg show this to be a ship without its captain. Opening with a bone dry narration, Wolman loses all of the sexy sass of the past films with a grubby appearance giving the title the stench of being cheap. Breaking the main rule of the franchise,the writers push Benzi and Hughie to the side of the deck for a rusty diamond heist,that sinks the lemon Popsicle.
