Also, it kind of sucked.

But only kinda, particularly towards the end. I thought the first half quite well done. I think 6.5 more like it (not that the difference is something to write home about).

"Movie was terrible, id rather just watch porn" ...Point well made,just because a movie is about porn .Doesn't mean it have to be pornographic :/

Yeah, this is one of the best movies I've ever seen.
This low rating is really incomprehensible.
It's not possible to write a better story than this.
Life writes the best screenplays, it's really true.

Sucky movie. Couldn't wait for it to end. There are much better movies about the adult film industry and the Sheen boys aren't exactly good avatars for a biopic much less regular character actors.

On a side note, it looks like in Charlie's case, he later let life imitate "Art" (pun intended).

As others have said, films about the porn biz can be made interestingly but unfortunately this one is simply blah. And actual porn is almost uniformly stupid but that does have sex to watch. I don't fall asleep while watching porn.

What many people doesn't seem to realize, this movie is NOT about the porn industry! This movie is about two brothers whom HAPPENED TO BE in the porn industry!
