Playtime

Definitely one of the better soft-core titles of recent years. The filmmakers avoid the (almost universally indulged in these days) temptation to feature huge, unnatural mounds of silicone. The two main actresses, Monique Parent and Jennifer Burton are beautiful, yet real, not obvious strippers masquerading as actresses. They can actually act, too. If you like films which are erotic, yet not pornographic, check this one out. Grade: A

Until it loses its way in the last couple of scenes which proved very seedy compared with everything that had gone before, this was an extremely erotic two hours which is definitely one to watch with your partner.

While making sure the eye-candy is great for the guys - and in Jennifer Burton and Monique Parent we have two of the best, with not a speck of silicone in sight thank goodness - the director makes sure he chose a couple of stars who could actually act too, so the character development was pretty good for a film devoting to offering as many sexy scenes as it could.

The whole film is seen from the female point of view, with the two married couples being seen to agonise about whether they should push the boundaries on their marriages - there is no way these people would jump into bed with just anyone.

So this gave Play Time the realism that both men and women can identify with, as well as being predominantly a story of loving and straightforward sex between two sets of happily married, if stuck in a sexual rut, couples.

The sex scenes are enormously erotic, probably because they are never graphic - a level of eroticism usually only seen in continental soft porn like one of my all-time favourites Emmanuelle.

Highly recommended.

This might very well be the best softie film of the 90's and on par with the fabulous Emmanuelle. The movie involves two young women who are probably part of a DINK couple (Double Income, No Kids). One of them indulges the other in her sexual fantasies, and slowly but surely, everyone else in their inner circle gets involved, meaning fun for the viewer is in the offing.

Jennifer Burton and Monique Parent steam the screen with raw sensuality, whether the "philosophical discussion" is man/woman, woman/woman, or threesome and more. These two natural beauties deliver knockout performances without talking (both of them are good actors, sadly, I saw the film dubbed in French but I have to get the DVD). While Parent is one hell of a looker, she can't compare with Burton, who looked like she was at her best throughout the filming. She blew me away throughout the whole film with her stunning beauty, passion and aura. I can't recall how many scenes where she portrayed the ultimate in what a woman should look like. Oh, if all women could look like her...

All I can say is that this movie is a must-see and that during the filming of Play Time, the most beautiful woman in the world at that time was Jennifer Leigh Burton. Check it out!

This is one of the best done low budget softcore movies ever. The scenes between the two main characters are electrically charged and reminiscent of Penthouse Forum Letters! They go just as far as they need without being vulgar. Camera work is pretty good, nice angles, good lighting, etc. Editing was decent as well, no jump cuts, visible set equipment and continuity was good. In a day when more is better, this leaves something to the imagination while building the sexual tension to a bursting point. The actors are old hat now and have many many b-movies to their credit but this one one of the first for them and the are still fresh.This movie is a must have, I wish they would re-release it on DVD.

Play Time is very good for what it is, a direct-to-video, erotic, B-movie. This one of those movies you rent or watch on television to see beautiful, naked women. Play Time does not disappoint. It provides some of the steamiest and most erotic scenes that I have ever seen. Monique Parent and Jennifer Burton look great in this movie.
