2
3	* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Aside from the glowing condoms scene, the movie is probably best remembered for the scene with Raye Hollitt in a lingerie and then getting naked to make love with John Ritter.
4	* EnsembleDarkHorse: Lonnie Jones, a charismatic, fun and sensual female bodybuilder (played by Creator/RayeHollitt) who has a night of love with Zach, who is excited and scared by her appearance.
5	* JustHereForGodzilla: Some ''American Gladiators'' fans watched this movie just for Creator/RayeHollitt.
6	* OneSceneWonder: Lonnie Jones appears in only three scenes in the film, but one of them, where she takes off her clothes and reveals to be a professional bodybuilder to Zach before having sex with him, is one of the most memorable parts of the film.
7	* SignatureScene:
8	** The sex scene of Zach with the female bodybuilder Lonnie Jones.
9	** The glowing condoms, courtesy Creator/IndustrialLightAndMagic. [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer no, really]].
10	* SoOkayItsAverage: It has its good moments, but you'll hardly see it on a list of the best Creator/BlakeEdwards movies.
11	* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Lonnie Jones, the friendly and fun female bodybuilder with whom Zach has one night of sex. She could have had more scenes in the movie developing her dynamics with the protagonist. Many fans think she could have had more screentime and development in the film, even as a serious suitor for Zach (The fact that Zach's ex-wife is a generic and uninteresting character doesn't help). Unfortunately, she is only a minor character in the script.
12	* ValuesResonance: The film makes fun of Zach's shock and surprise when he sees Lonnie Jones, a naked female bodybuilder, but still portrays Lonnie as a beautiful woman, and after Zach's surprise, he's more than interested in sleeping with her; remarkably, it doesn't come off as fetishistic either.
