Review – Spetters

Coming of age was a popular theme back in the late 70s and early 80s. So popular, in fact, that Saturday Night Fever and Breaking Away managed to leap across the Atlantic and wedge themselves in this early Paul Verhoeven production. However, as one might expect from a European production, the sex is a lot more graphic in this picture than in its American counterparts. That aside, however, this is a familiar tale of young men coming to grips (or failing to do so, as the case may be) with their new roles in adult society. Mildly amusing
