Darling Nikki

Loved it! Nicole D'Angelo did a great job in this film. It has a sexy, stylistic approach with a neat storyline about love and fantasy. Watch if an open mind.

I presume the title was lifted from the Prince song. If it was, Prince's estate should sue the producers of this piece of crap. Incredibly empty, dull and pointless.

R prudish women who watch Lifetime or Hallmark because they want sex without the "icky" nudity because it body shames them. The director is obviously one of those delusional people who think people can have sex without being naked.

Not sure if he's ever had sex, but the nudity is a major part of it. And to anyone who says "If you want naked people, just go watch porn," if you're watching this, you're watching porn made for people with phobias about nudity, one of THE most natural things in the world. Why waste your time? Go watch porn or a gazzillion other R-rated sex fantasies with actual nudity.

This is a fantastic student film. I'm looking forward to the director's future professional work.

Like most student films, this work seems to showcase specific techniques that are of interest to the student director, but for which no larger context or conceptual direction is evident.

It's interesting how the director has taken remarkable pains to keep this film (barely) at a PG-13 rating level, even though the content is more suggestive of an R movie.

Even though it might not have full frontal nudity, this isn't exactly the sort of movie you would screen at a junior high school assembly or for a church group. The near-nudity that is nearly always presented in a sexual context is close enough.

Unfortunately, although the individual vignettes that comprise the film are well-done for a student work, they never quite gel together into the artistic whole expected from a more experienced professional. The potential is there, however, for the director to create something remarkable in the future.

The cast was beautiful but the film felt rushed. The story was there and cinematography was great but they just needed to re-work the editing to make it a little more entertaining. I liked the comparison between fantasy world and real life and that made it a lot better but again if they re-edited it without the extra parts more people would appreciate it.
