Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

insomniac_rod I really tried to like this movie. It deals with an important problem in any society: sex addiction.In this story we learn that you can lose everything when you're addicted to sex. In this case, our main character and hero, for having non-stop sex with all kinds of women (crazy, kinky, neurotic) puts in jeopardy his marriage, job, and even his life.The production values are terrible; mainly the acting. Oh, you won't enjoy ANY of the sex scenes, most of them are done in very poor taste and you might think you're watching a home made flick.Second, the plot is just non sense. How could such a smart and beautiful wife stand all the nasty stuff from the husband? How could she believe him?! The threesome situation is priceless and will make you chuckle for a while.Also, the scene with the black movie theater attendant is just pointless and will leave you thinking "wtf?". Scenes like those you will find plenty. Avoid this movie. Please, avoid it; it's not soft core, it's not a documental, it's not a dramatic feature. It's a pretentious effort form a so called documentary director or whatever.Only Mrs. Kinski's legs on display are worth the watch. I caught it on HBO and I'm glad I didn't spend my money on it. But those 90 minutes of my life won't come back.

asherrod Actually, never saw this. just saw a review by Gonzalo Mendez asking a question I wanted to answer: Sin in suburbia - the whole idea is boring and banal. How can a movie or book make this material a timeless classic?.While not suburbia per se (though arguably an equivalent from an earlier time), I would have to say Madame Bovary comes pretty close to his description and seems to have quite a following.I know I am not supposed to reply to other comments, and I am supposed to stick to the movie at hand, but that question just screamed for an answer. (Well, no point in explaining. If this violates the rules too badly it will get deleted; if it doesn't, then I suppose no need to explain.)

aubyte I liked this movie no matter what other reviewers have written about it. Suspense kept me throu the final titles and I watched it more than once. The main character being sexually addicted (who isn't:)) had a dilemma - his family was really conservative about sex (no sex with his wife is pathetic IMHO, she looks pretty). So the guy was driven to go to Shrink therapy to make him stay more close to his kid and wife than to other women. The therapy did nothing helpful (as always - you can't just get rid of natural sexual lust unless you get castrated). The culminating point is when his wife discovers the guy having threesome sex. Being very conservative b..ch (though I'd expect quite the opposite) she just freaks out. I'd say I expected slightly different ending - like his wife just lets his husband having sex cause he (and she) needs it and live happy life.Here is what I liked about this flic:1. No useless criminal-style plot as seems to be pervasive in soft porn movies.2. Very interesting plot depicting life details of a normal healthy man (everyone is a sex addict - I feel I need that like every day - so nothing is wrong with it).3. Very funny. I laughed sincerely over the scene with wife's sister.4. Shows true conclusion - no therapy will cure what is natural. Throw out of your head that crap about family or nothing. That guy just needs a wife that will match his sex habits - end of story.I LOVE THIS MOVIE. ONLY COMPLETE TARDS CAN KEEP THEIR FAMILY HOSTAGES OF SOCIAL DISEASES. BE SMART. SEX MAKES YOU HEALTHY AS LAUGHTER DOES. DON'T MISS THIS ONE!

baconbit First of all, let's just say that you CANNOT praise a movie simply because it is shot in HD. Generally, people do this because they know they need SOME hook. Because their movie is awful. And that is exactly what happens here. Garbage is garbage, no matter how clear it is on my TV. Secondly, HD or not, the film looks EXTREMELY amateurish. It has all the cliche 'look what I can do' shots. Perhaps directors that use these cliches should ask themselves 'what SHOULD I do?' instead?
