I am at home, sacked out on the couch with pneumonia, right now, or I would say more. But, know that I went to the trouble of creating this account just to brag on this movie. It will pique your interest, trust me. Cheers.
The writing is the worst part of this movie. As an anthology movie, it's thematically consistent or at least none of the segments feel out of place, but most of them are very surface-level. Each revolves around some aspect related to sex, but the segments are over before they can explore anything interesting. Not in a way where I'm left wanting more out of the thrilling plots and characters, but more wondering what the point was when I just watched several minutes of generic indie fare. I don't remember any good jokes either; the opening credits are the most clever part of the film. Some segments are better than others, namely the ones which attempt actual character development. The worst is the one about the old couple, which is nothing but a one-note dialogue with comedy that doesn't land.
Despite the underwhelming writing, I think the movie does look kind of good, in an early 2000s way. The locations are pretty mundane but the movie does what it can to look visually appealing. I also remember liking the music, which has an identity and fits the scenes.
After Sex is not what I would call bad, just a watchable movie that never rises above mild amusement. It's more generally uninteresting than downright boring, and the fast pace, while compromising the quality of each segment, does prevent it from overstaying its welcome.
Though "After Sex" is low budget, it is still an interesting film. All the couples that they presented are of different background. They include sex with ex, domineering homosexual relationship, sexual exploitation of a friend, coming to terms of homosexuality, a loving old couple, teenage experimentation and one night stand. Each segment is interesting in their own right, as they reveal raw emotions and pain. With the variety of scenarios and emotions, one is likely to find a segment that strikes a chord. The most striking segment is the one where a guy lovingly says he loves his partner, but the partner passionlessly says "Whatever". It's sad.
"After Sex" is only for people who want to take a closer look at the emotional pain of sex. If you are looking for sex or action, then this is not for you.

- Citazioni
Leslie: Love is not negotiable.
Christopher: Oh, baby, everything is negotiable!
Leslie: Love is not negotiable. No, not love. Love is a guessing game. And that's the beauty of it, there's no guarantees. It's like diving into a pool of water without knowing if it's shallow or deep. Sure, right, if it's shallow you end up hurt and paralyzed from the neck down. But if it's deep... it's a leap of faith. It's like throwing yourself out there without any guarantees. And that's what life's about!
[exhales forcefully]
Leslie: Okay, you know those carnival games, right? And you know how some of them are really hard to win and some of them are super easy and everyone wins?
Christopher: Sure.
Leslie: Well, it's just that that's the difference between love and sex. Sex is the game where everyone wins a little prize and no one goes home a loser. And... love is the game that's really hard to win.
[pause]
Leslie: But if you do and you get to take home that life-sized stuffed rhinoceros, it feels a whole lot better than taking home that shitty little plastic key chain.
