Nostalgic in 2020
30 April 2020
In New York, the wolf school gym teacher Jack Jericho (Robert Downey Jr.) flirts with every beautiful woman he stumbles upon on the streets with his red Camaro. When he meets the museum guide Randy Jensen (Molly Ringwald), he has an unrequited crush on her. Jack stalks Randy and soon he learns that she gambles to pay a debt of US$ 25,148.00 her alcoholic father Flash (Dennis Hopper) has with the mobster Alonzo Scolara (Harvey Keitel) and he decides to help her.

"The Pick-up Artist" is a nostalgic film in 2020. It is so good to see Molly Ringwald, Dennis Hopper, Danny Aiello, Vanessa Williams, Lorraine Bracco, Harvey Keitel, Robert Downey Jr. very young in 1987. The beginning is promising and funny, but the last part is not so good. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "O Rei da Paquera" ("The King of the Flirt")
