LOL, 'Off The Hook' is somewhat slang. When used about a girl, boy, movie, drug just about anything... It's saying that the person, thing or event was exceptionally good (here's the kicker) to that person. ex: Lets say someone really loves Science Fiction movies and he sees something like 'Alien' for the first time. He might say 'The movie was totally off the hook!' ie: he really really liked it.
