Review of Blame It on Rio (1984) by Roger Ebert for Chicago Sun-Times — 27 Jun 2017
Blame It On Rio has the mind of a 1940s bongo comedy and the heart of a porno film. It's really unsettling to see how casually this movie takes a serious situation. A disturbed girl is using sex to play mind games with a middle-aged man, and the movie get its yuks with slapstick scenes where one guy goes out the window when the other guy comes in the door.
What's shocking is how many first-rate talents are associated with this sleaze.
