Let's Talk About Sex

This is like nothing you've ever seen before as it's uniqueness makes it a standalone adult sex pic, and it's uniqueness in it's story, is what I love. I think this movie has been harshly criticized. It's three stories are worlds apart from each other. I found this movie to be highly erotic, indulgent, funny, but has a lot to say. There's a eminent danger we feel, as to where the engrossing characters take us. The first story involves an independant, hot young Latino, sex phone worker/struggling actress, and we have a Theresa Randall/Girl 6 atmosphere. Did Spike Lee, see this by any chance. And yes, she's fallen in love with one of her customers, a younger family man (Bryan Cranston) of all people. Our actress creates some pretty erotic fantasies too. Let's move onto number which has a shock ending. Priscilla Barnes, oh my god. How hot. Her friend's not bad either, and we have the hunky male completing the menois de trois. The erotic meter goes up, drawing on Zalman King Territory. The third, strangest of them all, involves a young Asian couple, but the better left unsaid. You have to see it for yourself. This is a well made, acted, and sadly obscure film, you should seek out. Don't be swayed, by other reviewers. Make up your own mind.. Oh, yeah, did I mention Priscilla Barnes. Wow!

Before Bryan Cranston was the lovable Hal on "Malcolm In The Middle," he paid his dues making movies like this. I haven't even seen the whole movie yet, only BC's part. But that segment ("Let's Talk About Love") alone has already made this movie worth the six bucks I paid for it. This may not be BC's masterpiece, but it's worth watching to see what kind of roles he played before "MITM." Check it out, just make sure the kids aren't around...

For the record, I saw the version that includes the Brazil segment. That said, I want to know why every segment is in English, despite most of them taking place outside the US. It's jarring to see Germans, Brazilians and Hong Kong people not speaking their own languages.

As for the movie itself, it's OK, not great. Lots of nudity but it leaves a lot of the sex up to your imagination. Neat seeing Bryan Cranston in an early role.

My version didn't include the Brazilian segment but I'm not especially interested in watching it since the other three segments kind of suck.

The American and German episodes are as bland and boring as they come, while the Chinese one is at least vaguely interesting since there's a minimum of character building. Not enough to redeem a flavourless movie anyway.

Three story segments that have nothing to do with each other, 1 set in the USA, one in Germany and one in Hong Kong. Had its moments especially in the USA segment, but not enough of them and ultimately too bitty to be satisfying.
