The plot for “Meatballs 4” is nothing new, but for some reason I have a soft spot for cheap T&A flicks set at summer camp. I think the first time I saw this cheesefest was on USA Up All Night, and I really dug it. This time around I didn’t enjoy it as much as I did in my youth, but it was still a fun flick.

The film starts out like most of the others in this series, with the camp counselors waiting for the busload of campers show up. The big difference this time out is that the camp is now dedicated to skiing. Right from the get go some of the campers sneak up to the girls showers and watch the lovely (naked) ladies soap up, from that point on I knew that I in for a fun flick. We find out that camp owner Neil Peterson (Jack Nance) is about to loose the camp due to financial difficulties unless he can win a ski competition against a rival camp. In order to increase his chances of winning Mr. Peterson hires kick ass ski instructor Ricky Wade (Corey Feldman).

I can’t say that this film is the best film in the world, but I sure as hell had fun with it. So if you happen to see it in a bargain bin or on late night TV then check it out. It also goes well with beer and pretzels. “Meatballs 4” didn’t reinvent the wheel, but it is almost killer film.
