    would be better, much better, with drag queens

    Just godawful. Not enough nudity to be enjoyed as an exploitation flick, not enough camp to be enjoyed as a comedy, and not nearly enough plot to be taken seriously.

    You could learn more about women by renting "Basic Instinct" or "Showgirls".

    Girls talking about sex in the 90's

    I agree with a previous comment. Randi Ingerman IS a Goddess in this movie. It is enough to rent this movie just to feast your eyes on this beautiful woman!

    Randi...Will you marry me!!!!!

    A Tale of Two Movies

    There are two things going on in Let's Talk About Sex. One part of the story is the making of a videotape that is to be the pilot of a cable TV program - a talk show where women talk about sex. This aspect of the film works well - it really does capture the feel of things (though the answers given are remarkably forthright; I suspect that you'd have to do a LOT of editing to get anything like that in real life), and the answers are entertaining and sometimes insightful.

    The other aspect of the story is a look at the love lives of the three principal characters - the one making the film, and the two friends that she lives with. This part of the film doesn't work nearly as well; the characters just didn't involve me.

    Let's Talk About Sex could have been an even better film if it had been done as a straight-up mockumentary. But there's enough good stuff here to make it worth a look.

    Oh my god, don't waste your time!

    What a horrible piece of "profanity". This movie is tolerable only as a comedy about how to make a bad movie. While there are some beautiful women in this movie, this fact alone does not make it worth the time investment to watch this badly acted, badly written over-wrought movie. Watch only a tape of this movie , so that you may fast forward through the horribly set up plot points that pay off in predictable and laughable ways. When things go wrong for a character that you see coming in the scene before, it is truly a gut buster, they could not be funnier if they tried. Back to the women in this movie, there are some attractive women in this movie, of the main three, there is one who is attractive in a plastic way, but that is as good as it gets, the next semi-attractive one spends the entire movie with some horrible gel-crap in her hair making her look like she's perpetually running late, and just ran a wet comb through her flattened greasy looking locks, is this a look anyone would want to look at for two hours ? Answer: No! The last of the main trio of women is short in stature with an unfortunate short hair cut, and really short on natural acting talent, maybe classes would help, certainly a better script would. Why comment on the looks and hair of the various women? Well, there is so little else of real substance in this movie that one finds other things to look at as a distraction. The truly sad thing about this movie is that it represents a whole lot of effort by a lot of well intentioned people, and that it purports to be about women talking about sex, real women have real thoughts, and they don't deliver them perfectly the first time they attempt to express them, or if they do, they are at least believably expressed.

    I want to know how you're feeling, seriously.

    The most melodramatic piece of GARBAGE I've seen. This is the movie that makes men believe women are overly-dramatic, menstrual, and impossible to understand. It's a total generalization of women, as all the characters are typical stereotypes of lifetime watching, upper-middle class women with too much time on their hands and not enough brains in their heads. I felt absolutely no sympathy for any of these people, not even the one who couldn't have children. Boo hoo, I guess you'll just have to go get your hair done and buy yourself another Gucci suit.

    I'm female by the way, and this vulgar display of feminine instability is insulting and untrue. Perhaps one of the worst scenes in this movie is shortly after the girls discover the tape they've been working so hard on has been destroyed and in an attempt to distract themselves they each find an area of their comfortable loft to clean and cry while cleaning products fly in the air. We also get gratuitous cleavage shots while vacuuming.

    This movie is not about sex. It's about fakey women getting in touch with how incredibly self-involved they are as they revel in their mediocre problems. All this is done to soft, girly Lilith Fairesque music and soft camera lighting. Plus, as a special treat, all of these women are beautiful and have less than an ounce of fat on them. But you know how difficult life can be when you're beautiful and have little to worry about.

    • Trivia
      The film was originally rated NC-17 by the MPAA, but was edited for an R-rating. According to Beyer, among other items the MPAA would have required to give the film a lower rating, Beyer was asked to remove a scene where a fully dressed woman licks a peach in demonstration of cunnilingus. Beyer says that the scene was "heartfelt... It wasn't vulgar or demeaning to anyone." Regarding her experience with the MPAA, Beyer said, "I felt violated. I felt raped artistically."
    • Alternate versions
      The original version of this film was rated NC-17 in the US. Because director Troy Beyer was contractually bound to deliver an R-rated movie she had to cut various scenes including one of the characters showing others how she liked to pleasure her lesbian lover by licking a peach.
