Customer Ratings & Reviews

Pretty lady hires adventurer to help her. Very typical plot. Acting was okay, but with a plot that is hard to follow at times.

perils of gwendoline was said to one of the most expensive films to ever come from france. hmmm, how about that? the props & sets didn't look to be of a high budget to me but i still enjoyed this film anyway. the creator of emmanuelle & the story of O brought us this cute adventure in the early eighties. rather than picking up where he left off on those two films, jaeckin gives us a film with more of a jake speed or indiana jones atmosphere. tawn kitaen plays a nun who is searching for her missing father in the land of yik yak. she hires a man to lead her & a friend through the wild jungles in hopes of finding the lost father & a butterfly which is said to be extinct. if you were searching for this film, you probably already know the rest or have a basic understanding of the film. gwendoline is campy, cute, & silly all at once but it makes a great film if you are serving nachos with jalapeno velveeta sauce. have fun with this one.
