Pathetic, and deeply frustrating...
Not just his sexual history, but the film itself; half arsed, lacking direction, no structure, a mess. In a funny old way, its wretchedness might actually be the reason behind the directors problem... it's like he just doesn't give a *beep*. It's so incredibly sloppy. The most interesting parts of the film can be attributed to his mother, who actually does a spot of research in order to set up an interview rather than randomly showing up outside of someones house with a boom mix and expecting something interesting worth documenting to just happen. As it stands, it's simply a hideous vanity project.
There is just about enough content here to have made for a briefly entertaining 10 minute late night channel four fluff piece, but instead we've got an overlong movie padded out with simply moronic visits to an S&M dungeon, a viagra fuelled rampage where he hassles lots of women and innane bits of acoustic music to give the film a sense of hipster sincerity.
It's staggering he got the funding for such a self serving piece of *beep* which doesn't so much see him attempt to get to the bottom of why he's such a *beep* individual but rather try to meet as many women as possible... the films "happy ending" was all the more frustrating since I wanted the stupid git to end up alone, since he'd done so little in actually attempting to better himself, rather blaming his inadequacies on things beyond his control (like sexual dysfunction) rather than his very obvious problems (scabby, weedy, selfish etc.)
Arggggh. Maybe this film was an ingenious, entirely fictional creation to provoke exactly this kind of response, but even if it was it was still a deeply unsatisfying, annoying experience.
I have to get more pudding for this trip to Hawaii.
