Let's Talk About Sex

Anyone who saw this movie ? My boyfriend forced me to see it because he likes the actors. I didn't care for anybody. They are all bad bad bad. There is no story, they are all sitting around and talk. Better talk to your sister or your boyfriend, but he will not listen. Now then talk to your sister. But not about sex, you could hear things you don't want to hear for example that she had sex with your boyfriend although she is more ugly than you.

The documentary style of this petty and trivial film is frightfully boring, it is like sitting within this group and not being able to run away from those fatal stories.

Stay away. Run or die !

There are two things going on in Let's Talk About Sex. One part of the story is the making of a videotape that is to be the pilot of a cable TV program - a talk show where women talk about sex. This aspect of the film works well - it really does capture the feel of things (though the answers given are remarkably forthright; I suspect that you'd have to do a LOT of editing to get anything like that in real life), and the answers are entertaining and sometimes insightful.

The other aspect of the story is a look at the love lives of the three principal characters - the one making the film, and the two friends that she lives with. This part of the film doesn't work nearly as well; the characters just didn't involve me.

Let's Talk About Sex could have been an even better film if it had been done as a straight-up mockumentary. But there's enough good stuff here to make it worth a look.

My friend and I were excited to rent a film about women candidly discussing sex, but we soon learned that, instead, this particular movie is about male fantasies regarding how women view sex. We were shocked and dismayed to find out that a woman had written and directed this film.

What a horrible piece of "profanity". This movie is tolerable only as a comedy about how to make a bad movie. While there are some beautiful women in this movie, this fact alone does not make it worth the time investment to watch this badly acted, badly written over-wrought movie. Watch only a tape of this movie , so that you may fast forward through the horribly set up plot points that pay off in predictable and laughable ways. When things go wrong for a character that you see coming in the scene before, it is truly a gut buster, they could not be funnier if they tried. Back to the women in this movie, there are some attractive women in this movie, of the main three, there is one who is attractive in a plastic way, but that is as good as it gets, the next semi-attractive one spends the entire movie with some horrible gel-crap in her hair making her look like she's perpetually running late, and just ran a wet comb through her flattened greasy looking locks, is this a look anyone would want to look at for two hours ? Answer: No! The last of the main trio of women is short in stature with an unfortunate short hair cut, and really short on natural acting talent, maybe classes would help, certainly a better script would. Why comment on the looks and hair of the various women? Well, there is so little else of real substance in this movie that one finds other things to look at as a distraction. The truly sad thing about this movie is that it represents a whole lot of effort by a lot of well intentioned people, and that it purports to be about women talking about sex, real women have real thoughts, and they don't deliver them perfectly the first time they attempt to express them, or if they do, they are at least believably expressed.

I *love* movies - I can usually find something to enjoy about almost any film, but this one was just -bad-. Over acted, messy editing, no story to speak of, overwrought, so full of cliches and stereotypes it was ridiculous. My girlfriend selected it. She thought it was bad enough to offer to give my back my money. I can't understand how this thing made it into theaters at all.
