The Sex Trip

No pun intended and I don't know why they didn't use that instead of the .. one line they actually used. If a pun is that easy to obtain ... you have to go for it ... talking about going for it ... well no I don't mean to offend you. But if you are easily offended - some of the jokes here surely will achieve that! The movie does cross a line from time to time - but in its silly nature, making fun of everything and everyone (yes also the men in it), it can be forgiven - it will be up to those watching though (no pun intended) and their sensibilities.

That said, the silly nature of the movie matches the way the actors go about it. Yes we have seen body swap movies before. And you may even argue that you have seen better ones (surely when it comes to quality and even social statements and so forth) ... but this is so much insane fun ... with crazy ideas. And while it touches upon some taboo subjects (would you do it? Oh you know what I mean ... and no I can't answer that entirely and truthfully myself either) ... it never goes off the rails.

Still maybe it is too much for you. And certain resolutions seem to come too easily ... but again, don't overthink it ... don't be too harsh and just enjoy the funny moments this has in store for you ...

The current overall rating is about right at 3 to 4 stars. Not a memorable movie or one to recommend to a friend as a 'got to see' but not a complete waste of time either. If one enjoys the body switch sub genre then a person could do worse than The Sex Trip. If this is a new directorial debut then there is hope in future endeavors.

The Sex Trip is a marvelously done theatrical presentation. A classic retelling of a timeless tale, presented masterfully by the genius mind of director Anthony G Cohen.

I came across this movie while searching Amazon Prime, and as I like gender switching movies like "Switch" and "It's a Boy Girl Thing," I thought to give it a try.

It is really, truly, an awful movie. The dialogue in this movie tells me that the writers think insulting people is funny; it's not. The Sex Trip's main characters make crude remarks to all of the other characters. I've been a judge in some newbie screenwriting competitions and let me tell you this script would not make it past the first round, which entails reading and judging the first thirty pages.

The film is loaded with stereotypes; again, the writers think caricatures not characters are funny; they're not.

There is nothing "new" in this film from other gender switching movies, but there is a lot "bad" eliminates; ie, the main character not knowing what a woman's menstrual period entails.

Stay away; stay far, far away from this film.

It's not a blockbuster, however it's enjoyable. Great to see Louis Mandylor aging so gracefully. Not to give anything away, but his buddy insights are unique when inspiring Eddie to embrace the situation. Not the same old conflicts. 8/10
