A Guide to Second Date Sex

I really enjoyed this. It's very much a short sketch but I laughed out loud and also found it very comforting in its own way, given so much of it was sadly relatable. Definitely worth about 90-100 mins of your day.

Great acting and very funny for a film mostly set in one house, well worth a watch

I really wanted to like this film. I did. It had my celebrity crush, George Mackay, in it and I have been trying to watch all of his movies. I was excited to see him in a romantic comedy, but overall it fell flat to me. I actually fast forwarded through most of it because I wanted to know the end, but couldn't bear watching it in real time. I think the main reason why it didn't work was because they were both so awkward. Usually this isn't a problem for me as it makes the characters feel realer and more relatable, but it was just too much here. They were both trying really hard, which I get is the point of the movie, but it was cringy at times. I also think if the format of the narrative involved seeing them meet more in the beginning rather than have flashbacks throughout from their first date, I could have connected with them more.

Hilariously awkward, with excellent chemistry from leads George McKay and Alexandra Roach. Was great seeing both these excellent actors in a flat out comedy.

You could tell everyone involved was having a lot of fun. I was laughing out loud through majority of the film. Many people should be able to find something to relate to - if you can't, then it's a sign you probably haven't been living enough.

The random housemate guy kind of stole the show for me - I laughed for 100% of his screen time (thanks Tom Bell!). A Guide to Second Date Sex felt incredibly "real". Not just with the awkward 'warts n' all' bedroom antics, but with the lack of soundtrack and real-time unfolding of events.

Despite its short duration, there was also room for McKay and Roach to briefly showcase their considerable dramatic acting chops. All in all, this was fun for what it was and more people should give it a go!

This is a personal favorite so I'll give it a 10 - since I'd love to watch it again! It's a spot on 2nd (or 1st...) date experience for us awkward but funny people. The acting is phenomenal and it has scenes that are so cringe but lovable at the same time! I go "oh no you didn't!" from one second to looking starry eyed and giggling like a school girl the next. And I love George MacKay and Alexandra Roach, they are such an attractive couple in this movie. The chemistry is definitely there! Greatly underrated at the moment. If you like British humor and have a sweet spot for everyday romance - you'll enjoy this.
