Title: A nice idea, but really not worth your time
Review: I love the idea of a film that depicts sexuality as it exists, rather than in the exploitative manner of pornagraphy which reflects only (mostly unrealizable) fantasy. But this film takes that seemingly simple idea nowhere. In the end, it is just a big bore. The plot (if there is one) mostly centers around a woman's quest to have an orgasm, but one gets the feeling that it just so happened that that was the best footage that the director shot, so he used it the most in the final edit. The film has a workshop production feel -- like the director just gave the actors some ideas of themes and then yelled "action", figuring he'd use whatever worked, rather than producing a coherently written film containing a beginning, middle and end. Unfortunately, I think the director only gets one shot at this concept, so we'll not see if he could get it right the next time.
Is the review positive or negative?
