    Threesome

    I usually am biased towards men in stories or more likely to understand and get on the side of men. Not always of course, but like with Kramer vs. Kramer to name one, I was fully invested with Dustin Hoffmans character. I think that makes sense for most. In this case, not just because of Lauren Lupkus, I have to admit, I am almost entirely on her side, when arguments arise.

    Of course, she plays a character so I'm obviously talking about the character she portrays and the same goes for her male co star. Having said that and back to my summary word: that's the German title of the movie. I guess to make it easier to digest and more accessible to audiences. I guess that makes sense. The movie is quite interesting and funny. It does have flaws, but considering the fine line it walks between being (trying to be) sexy and being funny, it really works quite well. Add to that a drama element and it is quite the hill this has to arise ... I mean climb over. Not perfect by any sense, but with the right actors to yank it ... I mean pull it off! Stay throughout the credits for some outtakes (you could tell they had fun, here's the video evidence)

    So, so hard to watch

    I actually really Lauren Lapkus and the trailer was appealing... so yeah I was looking forward to this. It was truly insufferable! Just awkward and not funny. And lame. Just lame. Every character is unlikable and unsexy in their own unique way, I nearly gave up watching halfway through.

    a bit corny

    The unicorn really delves with an issue that many couples have considered ( as a triage when the wed is dedd in the bed) ,thought of, played with or simply not liked it at all. and i am also quite sure that many couples have had or will have or get the opportunity to have the discussion of or quarel about or even just get the chance to dive into a menage a troix or threesome or trike or triathlon or cross country or whatever. its volvo kosher avekmoi cissoir on the menu, you can choose between bbg or ggb, or ggg or bbb if your lgbtq. and then you can start deliberating, and i guess thats the worst part.

    and this film gives 90% of the answers and prblematic issues connected to this bodyclustering phenomena. its not overly funny acted, but it gives a vivid insight to the term. the main actors are very truthful in the act, a less experienced actor wouldve shown all the signs of discomfort gig(-olo)ling away the dollars in repetetiv shoots of laughter, so well done.

    the language spoken here are pretty rude english, the f-word are commonly used,and it sort of breaks the ice,else the writing are good,so are the plot and the cinematography. great use of deep and shallow focus,that carries the story a level higher than usual. its also very colorful in the costumes make up and props, and delivers till the end.

    shall you try it out too, well then ask henry first,and thereafter do take the advice from the grumpy old man, still married even without a treesome, cause he recommends it

    It Makes A Full Recovery

    After an awkward opening this film takes a funny turn, plot and dialogue. There's some really good laughs and poignant moments that make it worth a watch. Just be patient, and it will work itself out.

    Terrible excuse for a film

    I don't think I could have cared any less about these characters. They want to have a threesome because they are bored with each other. The main guy is especially insufferable. I couldn't wait for his face to leave the screen. Lucy Hale gets two scenes, and they are awful. Nothing about this was remotely funny. This should have never been written.
