Sex Sells: The Making of 'Touché'

Spinal Tap was funny because if you knew a little about heavy metal, you saw in-jokes all over the place. If you know anything about porn, this mock documentary will leave you cold. Everything in it rings false.

Spinal Tap was funny because it took a familiar world and pushed it over the top. This film is decidedly not funny because it paints a picture of how porn is made that bears no relationship to the real world.

The acting here is uniformly awful, but that would not matter much if the core idea of the movie were good. But it's not.

I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. My boyfriend picked it out, and I thought it was going to be an American Pie type raunchy comedy. But it's a lot more than that. Yeah, there's nudity and sex and penis jokes, but there's also a serious story, clever plot twists, and some really intelligent humor. You'd never know from the poster, but there's even a social message about the roles of sex and violence in our culture. I especially liked how women are portrayed as strong and smart. And I loved all the Terminator references! The writer is obviously a big sci-fi fan. (Terminator is one of my all-time favorite movies-- yeah, I know, pretty unusual for a chick!) Mostly though its just a fun comedy with a lot of laugh out loud jokes. I read the first review posted here, and it's right-- you need to like Kevin Smith/SouthPark kind of humor. If you can't laugh at porn, sex and a three and half foot penis, you probably won't like this film. Oh, one more thing... Adrian Zmed looks hot!! I never knew he was so well endowed!

It wasn't something I was gonna see due to I like action movies that add sex to them. But cleverly this was a movie that had sex (making it sexy) that cleverly added a sword fight to it (action; sort of, kinda)! All in all, it was very well done, catches you off guard with realistic life humor not just slapstick. Each girl really looked great too, a diverse group of sex appeal from mature to the nubile. Yummy!

I grew up with threes company, and always wanted to see more of each of them. Well, I got to see more of Pricilla Barnes! Right from the beginning she set the mood with a right on way to go girl kind of thing. The rest of the movie kept up the pace. You were pleasantly looking around the corner for the next fun moment. Every movie I have see drags at some point, this movie didn't seem to have that problem. It had just enough depth to follow several characters around and keep you interested and giggling!

I give it 2 thumb up!

I bet this is going to be a cult classic someday. I swear as long as I live I'll always remember Adrian Zmed with his 42 penis! I went with a bunch of friends and everyone loved it--except for a couple that hated it. The humor does get a little raunchy, but nothing more than I've seen on Sex and the City. I was totally surprised when I saw a few people walk out in the middle of the movie, since I thought it was hysterical. Everyone else was laughing so much I know I missed some of the jokes. This is one of those movies you can tell everyone was having fun just making it. The plot about a group of porn actors and their director making a last movie together doesn't really matter. It's all the funny interactions between the people that makes the movie so good. By the end you really care about these odd, quirky people.

I recently watched Sex Sells (2005) on Tubi. The storyline follows a veteran porn director looking to make one final film while a documentary crew captures the process, interviewing the cast and crew to provide insight into the industry.

Written and directed by Jonathan Liebert (You Snooze You Lose), the film stars Mark DeCarlo (Fifty Shades Darker), Priscilla Barnes (Jane the Virgin), Jack Kyle (Intolerable Cruelty), and Lisa Jay (Creepies).

As expected, the film is filled with nonstop nudity from start to finish. The opening android scene is a highlight, as are some of the behind-the-scenes stories about the adult film industry. The mother-daughter subplot feels unnecessary, but the rest of the content does enough to hold your attention. The comedy is cheesy and rarely as funny or clever as intended, but let's be honest-that's not the main reason anyone is watching this.

In conclusion, Sex Sells isn't a good movie, but if you're looking for nudity and softcore content, it delivers. I'd score it a 4/10.
