American Nudist

To be transparent, I didn't make it all the way through this film. I tried, I really did, but I gave up -- something I very rarely do -- because it was such a hard slog. Aiming at times to be artsy, it just comes across as inept. I thought it would be an interesting view into the culture of nudism; I don't know what it's about, but it's definitely not about that. Awful.

It's silly how nowadays some people look for excuses to show boobs (for me Game Of Thrones is one example). This "movie" is irritating in that sense. Also it's a bit offensive. Let me expand on that. On one hand, all the nudity he filmed (not the "documental" part of the thing) was exclusively women showing their boobs. Do you really need to make an excuse for that? You could easily have made a porno, and you could have banged your cast mates. That was all you wanted. Men can also be nudist, duh. On the other hand, it pisses me off the way the naked body of a woman must always be used as a way to sell things (PETA's adds are always with naked women, men are always dressed). Halfway through the film I had to stop, so, I just endured about 50 minutes. That's to say a lot IMHO.

No matter how low you set your expectations for this film, the actual product will be worse.

What should have been mindless B-grade titillation didn't even live up to that. Instead you have some sort of faux documentary about a glamour model that somehow manages to be monumentally nonsensical and boring.

Then there's a parallel story involving a mob boss which is random and pointless.

To crown it all, it's pretty tame. They couldn't even get the trashy stuff right. A massive waste of time.

Not a nudist/naturist movie. Just an obscure, totally failed attempt to create an art-house movie of some sort based on this guy's obsession to make the movie we're watching about WANTING to go to a nudist resort with a model--they never go. Faux violence (I'm not into violence and hate the kind of violence they were portraying), was preformed so poorly it was just pathetic.

As to the nudity shown, I beg to differ with another reviewer, there just wasn't very much and it was mostly quick-shots designed to titillate rather than present anything remotely what nudism/naturism is about.

So bad, plotless, and erratic (No, not erotic.) that it couldn't even become a cult film.

I rarely say this thinking everyone should be given a chance, but save your time and avoid this one.

Let's face it: you're watching this movie for the nudity. Of which there are gratuitous amounts.

But the "movie" surrounding it is so bizarre and horrible that it's just painful to watch. It's just not enjoyable.

Expectations are low for acting and story in a film like this, but this..fails to meet even those low expectations by a long shot.

Don't waste your time.
