Live Nude Girls

I've grown abit tired of typical Hollywood blockbusters and now often scrape the bottom of the barrel C grade, low budget, 5.0 and below rated movies.

Live Nude Girls is one of those rare movies that somehow manage to get the right balance of being pretty awful, yet charming and funny at the same time. And surprisingly some of these porn stars can actually act and have decent comedic timing.

If you're into bad movies and aren't offended by nudity, Live Nude Girls is worth a watch.

I had zero expectations coming into this movie, and I was actually very pleasantly surprised by how genuinely funny it is. Dave Foley is particularly great. What an underrated gem of a movie. The only thing I didn't like about it was the music... too loud, too terrible, too distracting, and it didn't match the mood.

Let's not take ourselves too seriously. If I was forced to watch Expendables 3 or Live Nude Girls a second time, I would rather watch Bree Olson, Asa Akira, and especially Tera Patrick one more time. Bree does her ditsy blonde routine to perfection, and Tera Patrick is a good actress. She plays a bipolar seductress, and switches from a sweet aunt to greedy bitch faster than you can say "I'm not a fig plucker, nor a fig pluckers son, but I'll pluck figs until the fig plucker comes." It's a NICE movie. The hero is a nice guy who inherits a famous club running out of money. There is a bouncer with a poet's soul, an affable manager with drug and alcohol problems, a loser best friend who comes through in the end. There is even a romance between the main character and the cocktail waitress who actually runs the entire club. OK. It's not Shakespeare. The sole purpose is to make you smile. It's a decent story, photographed well with plenty of interesting characters, lots of great tits and a happy ending that ties all the character lines together. Lighten up. Watch it while you're cleaning house or balancing the checkbook. It's a visual snack, not a 7 Course Feast.

Very slow moving painful disaster of a movie. The pornstars are about the best actors in this flick! Seriously. Bree Olson acts really well and so does Asa Akira. Other roles are so much overplayed that you can litterally see the effort of acting. Cringy characters and freaks ruin any chance of the movie to be somewhat realistic. But as a comedy, the movie totally lacks of comic highlights. And then there is this douchbag with a camera trying to document developments, sort of movie within a movie, a totally futile exercise ending up cuting the flow of the story.... but then, what story? Whoever thinks that the movie oozes sexual energy: be disappointed. The movie is a waste of time.

No pun intended - obviously the title refers to the establishment the titular girls (if you see a pun here, I will not apologize for your thoughts) are working for and in what ... let's say state they are in (mostly undressed).

That being said, the movie is all over the place. I am not sure if it suggests to be or tell us how private dances were invented. And I have to admit, I could not be bothered checking if that is what the movie was trying to do. Having some meat behind it - ok with a title like that you don't even have to be inventive when it comes to innuendo and puns. As long as you don't make a mess .... yes even more and I'll keep them coming - maybe.

I almost feel sorry for the actors in this, some seem to be in the business of not being shy to take their clothes off. But no matter if you may recognize someone (I would imagine there being at least a few), not shaming you if you do and not telling you not to like whoever you are into.

Major problem is that the movie switches between humor and erotic adventures - mostly staying in the silly lane though. So don't expect this to get you up ... and running. Whatever that may mean for and to you. There are moments that work (like the roadie that turns out to be way more than that - savior one may say), but in the end and mostly you have a movie that tried but could not ... well finish what it started. Not even sure if you can call it a happy ending - in any sense that is - that you are being served here. Enough puns and enough wasting your time - humor is in the eye of the beholder, if you had more fun with this, I truly mean this: good for you.
