Baywatch The Movie: Forbidden Paradise finds the team heading to Hawaii for a fairly dull vacation. Baywatch was David Hasselhoff’s next big series after Knight Rider and follows a group of photogenic lifeguards based in L.A. While it later became a huge hit it was originally cancelled after its first season on NBC. The show then moved to first-run syndication and became a worldwide smash, and featured feature stars like Pamela Anderson and Jason Momoa (Game Of Thrones) among its cast.

Baywatch was such a success it spawned spinoffs like the awful Baywatch Nights, where Hasselhoff’s Mitch becomes a P.I. and getting sucked into X-Files-inspired cases; it lasted two seasons. Baywatch itself came to an end in 2001, though most of the cast reunited for a 2003 TV movie Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding. The series later received a big-screen remake starring Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, and Alexandra Daddario. While it was supposed to be a more comical, 21 Jump Street-inspired take, the movie received mostly terrible reviews with Johnson himself later personally accepting a Razzie for it.

While Baywatch may have run for eleven seasons, it was never very focused on things like story or character arcs. It became so successful because it assembled a cast of blindingly attractive actors and actresses and photographed them in slow-motion. That’s not to say it couldn’t be fun and Baywatch was fully embracing of its own cheesiness. It produced its fair share of flat out terrible episodes, however, and spinoff Baywatch The Movie: Forbidden Paradise finds the show at its most tedious.

Baywatch The Movie: Forbidden Paradise finds the lifeguard crew as they’re invited to Oahu for a training exercise. Hijinks ensue, with Matt Brody being stung by a poisonous fish while Logan takes part in a local surfing competition – much to the chagrin of Yasmine Bleeth’s Caroline. Both the show and the movie sold itself on the appearance of Pamela Anderson’s C.J., but she quickly departs the story after being called back to L.A. There’s also a subplot involving a very annoying photographer cursed with bad luck.

Baywatch The Movie: Forbidden Paradise takes a typical episode and stretches it out to 90 minutes, despite little of note really happening. For Baywatch completionists – if such a thing exists – it might be worth seeing, but since it was later chopped into a two-parter for season 6, there’s no real need. It’s a movie from a different era and not one that needs to be revisited.
