Girls on Film

There is one movie that will draw in viewers wanting to see some skin. The other movie may keep some who see more depth to the two characters. Rain has aspirations of becoming a nurse, and live streams suggestive videos, for which men pay to see, and she makes a modest income, with 20,000 followers. One day she gets kicked out of her apartment when the landlord discovered what she was doing She winds up at a very nice home with Blake, for $2000/month, in Palm Springs. Blake tells her she needs millions of viewers. Rain grew up very poor with hardship, while Blake is swimming in daddy's money. Rain has sort of a baby fat face, which some will find fetching. Blake, on the other hand is very lonely, is a drug addict with depression, and Sterling is hired by her father to keep her out of trouble, so he lives in the house. Neither of the 'two' movies are particularly well done, but are viewable. Is the moral that money does not buy happiness? Blake can be clingy and also cruel and Rain seems a bit naive. As Blake draws Rain into more and more edgy live streams, the 'likes' and the money and viewers start rolling in. But the destructive nature of the addict is always present. However, Rain tries to keep her mind on her goal, and the courses start soon. Blake doesn't care about that.

This movie does not know what it wants to be. On one hand this is sort of romantic drama, but sometimes it wants to be a erotic thriller, or perhaps a character study, or perhaps a LGBTQ friendly movie just because. This movie should have picked one, preferably the erotic thriller path and it would have been so much better.

Another thing that bothers are the actresses. Neither one is bad, but neither one is very good either. And when they have zero chemistry it all just falls flat. The awkward kissing and "oh no, I touched a boob" look is about as sexy as watching paint dry.

The dialogue is subpar and the directing meh. I could go on and pick apart more of the movie, but if all you want to see is two beautiful girls pretending to be into each other I guess this is alright.

I fund this very boring, mainly because the movie never finds its path and sticks to it. 3/10 and impossible to recommend. There are far better acted and scripted porn to watch if you want.

Calling this movie sexy is actually counterintuitive. It is sexy, but it is so much more and probably one of the best LGBTQ+/lesbian romance stories I've ever seen. We don't often get treated to a love story that builds from the ground up like this. I felt the tension and love between the characters and was captivated by what might happen next between them. From the moment they locked eyes when they first meet next to Blake's fabulous pool until the last moments of the film. It is a very honest look into a queer love story between two women. I'm going to spread the word in the queer community. It's a much watch.

Rain (aka. Girls on Film) is first and foremost a bit of softcore titillation, much like you'll find on late-night TV. It's not too explicit, has a basic story and allows the two protagonists to undress and have intimate relations. It also throws in a bit of mild drama for the sake of tension.

The pros here are that the girls are attractive, it's nicely filmed and there are a few dark(ish) themes. On the flip side, the acting is very bad, the dialogue isn't great and it's not really explicit enough.

Saying that however, the story and the acting probably aren't the reasons why you're here in any case. If you're a fan of either of the actresses or just want to have a little harmless fun (which is absolutely couples-friendly), then there are worse ways to spend your time.

I thought the Girl Lost series was interesting and it's good to see Robin doing something a little different. Unfortunately the film was sort of a let down. I didn't feel magic in this film. Hopefully if Robin makes another LGBTQ film it would be more engaging. The film score was not very good, and the overall film was shot pretty generically. The actresses weren't great but I like the effort they put in, they did try. But the main problem for me with this film is that it felt sort of boring. For much of the film I didn't care what was happening, the film needed a slower pacing and more sizzle and personality, for a romance film it's missing that romantic feel to it. The emotional moments didn't hit me as hard as she was attempting to do. I do enjoy her films and I hope she does more but I would like to see better screenplays and more personality in her directing style, it's hard to describe Robin as a director.
