"Men" is also a total misleading title. There is not a real man in the entire lot of partners she takes on. It's all just a bunch of losers using each other for misguided -- or unguided -- gratification. Stella's "friends" are boozers and losers and abusers, but of course she is, too, and the best thing to say for the lot of them is that they deserve each other. Character development is zero; nobody grows up, never grows in any direction. Plot is nonexistent; a series of porn scenes does not make for anything resembling cinematic story-telling. And the characters (and the talk-talk-talk) become increasingly bizarre and sordid. All this makes the final true-love-and-heartbreak seem out-of-place, a parody of sorts.
All in all a totally dull and pointless something-or-other. Certainly it is not a movie worth watching.
The movie is really slow, and the message seems to be lost. I insist, perhaps with an actress actually reflecting any feeling at all, it would have been an interesting story, as it reverts the men's typical role into a woman. The drunken guy character seems to be pointless, and has no explanation at all.
So, we all ended up as empty as we started...
