Sam (Corey Feldman) and computer geek Dave (Corey Haim) get fired from a greasy fast food restaurant and evicted from their apartment. Sam's uncle Rex Carver (Geoffrey Lewis) is in danger of losing his island resort to the bank which is owned by his old acting rival Hemlock. He invites the guys to work as scuba instructors. They are magically transported to the wacky island and met by cheerful employee Sonja (Maureen Flannigan). Alex (Demetra Hampton) is the femme fatale.
The director has filled this with wacky ideas and visuals. However, it comes off as bad cheese and never as fun camp. I root for people who try to do something original but this gets really annoying. The Coreys are at it again. Feldman is not as funny as he thinks he is. He's good as the snarky sidekick but he's not actually a comedian. Haim was a good actor but he's overplaying the computer geek. The whole movie reeks of a wacky school project. This is bad but not so bad that it's funny. This is much more sad than anything else.
