Heart warming - By: Amanda, 10 Oct 2004
"Pool Girl" is a comedy/drama with a addictive quality. On first viewing it seems uneven & uninteresting, but a balanced & talented cast help you climb inside the characters heads.

The film follows a day in the life of pool cleaner Hugo. She has 40 clients - including a mob boss who doesn't want disapointing - & one pair of hands. So she asks her gambling mother & father to help her through the day, but theres still time for unbalanced film directers, a hitch hiker with a shoe fetish, that alll important horse race, & a heart warming romance.

All in alll "Pool Girl" is a cleverly written & enjoyable film.
