Hollywood Sex Wars

I know...I know it's 20_ _ so nothing is funny and everything is offensive.

This movie was FUNNY! It's about men and women and the games they play. It's a sex comedy about men having sex and doing everything they can, and women having sex, doing everything they can to get men to pay for stuff. Sounds like Prostitutes...? Yes!!!!

That's all you need to know. Some people are such YOUNG FARTS, they cannot understand what a sex comedy is.

I miss the days of being offensive. Comedy is supposed to offend, and this does and hilariously so.

I give it an 8 out of 10.

I don't think this is as LA-centric as some people make it out to be. Anyone in a city with a nightlife can pretty much relate to how hard it is to find someone to date, and how often people flat out refuse to settle, either because they want to keep their options open or because they see relationships as being more than just about satisfying emotional needs.

Beyond that, this movie takes no prisoners. It makes fun of relationships, it makes fun of players, it makes fun of women who care more about how much a guy makes than who he is, it makes fun of drugs, it makes fun of city life, it makes fun of irresponsible people, it makes fun of hipsters, it makes fun of people who still harbor dreams of their band making it big past the age of 30, it makes fun of subcultures, it makes fun of plastic surgery, it makes fun of Star Wars cosplayers and other fetishes -- it makes fun of everything.

This movie is like the honey badger. It doesn't care. It just takes what it wants.

A lot of movies have tried to portray the sort of characters that one sees in Hollywood Sex Wars without much success. Somehow, this comedy manages to make everyone come out looking human. Yes, the situations are extreme and often hilariously ridiculous, but even the craziest characters come out looking human, which adds the missing degree of realism.

The writing is smart, but the jokes range from insidery to lowest common denominator, so there is a little something for everyone to enjoy. Some people have said this isn't a very good date movie, but I think it is, even if the couple watching enjoy it for altogether different reasons.

There is something about living in Los Angeles that makes you want to shred it into a million pieces. I can't count the number of apocalyptic films I've seen recently that took turns completely tearing it apart. This isn't an endtimes flick, but it can't resist the urge of taking aim at the city. The result is absolutely hilarious.

Anyone who doesn't think the characters have sufficient depth to be believable has never been to Los Angeles. The scene where the guy chops up a Barbie to illustrate what LA girls are under the cute clothes, shoes, implants, makeup and hair is iconic, and so is the scene where the girls are doing yoga in high heels and talking about how men are just like dogs. While thousands of kids are out protesting the role corporations have come to play in our lives, there is a whole culture of people who neither know nor care about current events.

Fortunately for all of us, these people are too busy hooking up to ever vote.

Seeing the title, people may assume it's another Asylum skin film. This film is similar to those Asylum ones in its plot but there seems to be more detail and more drama than those standard comedies.

Labeled as a comedy, nothing is exactly clever or witty. No laughs but it is watchable. The lead character is surprisingly likeable for the womanizer type and the clients he helps out aren't bad either. The women do vary from the smart mastermind scheming type to the silly and clueless. No problems there.

In the end, it is predictable in how both genders are scheming against one another and of course each side finds out. The voice narration in the end from one of the characters felt somewhat out of place.

A notch above several of those T & A Asylum films. Although nothing exactly special. A one time watch is enough.
