Good movie. Unnatural sex scenes.


Film was great. I'd easily give this a 8/10, with one point subtracted for annoying camera angles and obvious nudity cover-up during sex scenes. Had this been a European movie, you would've had different camera angles during sex, no clothes on during sex, no sheets covering you during sex, and you obviously would've seen male and female nudity, which would've given the movie more authenticity. It's okay to cover up nudity if you can do it discretely and with style, but this movie did not accomplish that at all. I'll never get why they ruin otherwise great movies this way.

Well i really liked it. *beep* but likable i would say. But who am I to judge, just a swedish imdb-member.

I agree. I've never seen a movie with so many sex scenes without any nudity. It just seemed strange.

Your arrogance and pretension about this so called major drawback is ridiculous. European films my arse, I am positive that the inclusion of nudity would have just resulted in more threads about the lead actresses' assets rather than any discussion on the plot. That's perversion, my friend, not refinement.

reply

Its not perversion. I totally understand the OP. There is nothing wrong with covering up the actresses/actors during sex...but if they try so hard to cover them up that it makes the sex scenes seem fake, then they might have picked the wrong genre for thier movie.

People have sex naked...its just a fact of sex. If there is a movie full of fully clothed people having sex, or naked by always fully covered by sheets (personally I've never had sex under the sheets), then it seems odd.

A shot of Johann Urb's bare buns would have been welcome. After all, this is an "R" movie.

I agree, the sex scenes should have been more daring. They didn't have to be as explicit as let's say "Tell Me You Love Me" or "Californication" sex scenes, because few actresses can pull scenes like that. However, the title tell it all. The scene could have at least been partly nude.

I loved this movie, but it wasn't the nudity that bothered me about the sex scenes. Sure I would have loved to see Kristin Kerr show her party pillows, like the next guy. But the scene where Christi-Ann leaves Joe twitching like he just got shot in the stomach with a pistol? That was a little over the top. But who knows, maybe I haven't had a good lay and haven't experienced that. I'm kinda sad now.

"As the humans say, the humans you love more than your own kind, BACK YOUR *beep* DOWN!"

You should be. Aftershocks are common after a good screw.

I had no problem with the lack of nudity. In fact, I didn't even notice it till I saw it mentioned here. The film was still very hot and an honest depiction of relationship dynamics.

reply

True, you haven't had a good "lay". Hope someday you do.
