Satisfaction (also titled Girls of Summer) is a 1988 American comedy-drama film directed by Joan Freeman and starring Justine Bateman and Liam Neeson.

Primarily known today as Julia Roberts' first credited big-screen role,[2] Satisfaction is also one of the few theatrical productions by either Aaron Spelling or the NBC network.

Not wanting to have to return, the band finds the owner Martin Falcon's home address to make him listen to them play.

They do find Hamlet, Falcon's pet Doberman Pincher dog, who, after Billy sings him a song, becomes fast friends with them.

The next night, the band auditions, and the overwhelming applauding crowd response convinces Falcon to hire them for the summer.

The band members stick out like a sore thumb in the preppy beachside area, especially Mooch, who refuses to take off her black leather jacket, although the weather is hot.

Daryle (who has broken up with Frankie) starts dating a local rich boy and gets the band invited to his parties.

Billy nearly overdoses, and Frankie causes a small riot when he goes to the club and sees Daryle on stage being ogled by the locals.

On the night the agent goes to the club, Jennie runs out just after performing a song written by Falcon, especially for the band, and the street gang finally catches up with Mooch for taking their van.

The New York Times called it "a typical, low-budget summer movie, where everyone has a hot romance, a good body and an expensive haircut.

"[7] The Los Angeles Times' critic Michael Wilmington called it "a movie—supposedly about an '80s rock band—where the songs date from the '60s, the language and sexual attitudes suggest the '70s and the plot is pure '50s.

"[8] Movie historian Leonard Maltin seemed to agree: "Bombs like this one were more fun during the Baby Boomer era...Citing a lack of romantic chemistry between Neeson and Bateman would be much too polite.

"[9] A DVD Talk reviewer said that it was "no wonder these gals can't get any satisfaction; their combined musical "talents" make Britney Spears look like Aretha Franklin, their clothes are freaking ridiculous, and they're stuck in a movie that looks precisely like a 'girls on vacation' episode of Beverly Hills 90210, or worse yet, a pre-teen version of Coyote Ugly.
