Justine: A Midsummer Night's Dream

I saw this film on television in the summer of 2004 while in Oaxaca, Mexico. Soft porn at its most ridiculous. The writer and director obviously thought that they were on to something with the sexual escapades of a college ingénue and her professor, but they should have thought a little longer and harder... The film makes (many) references to other Justine films, so I guess someone has been supporting this franchise. The "plot" is idiotic -- sort of a girl's pornographic "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark", and yet it still manages to be convoluted. Impressive. You will see a lot of Justine and her breasts, and you'll even see some unseemly sex scenes, but your view of the professor seems to have been sanitized.

Happy viewing? I don't *think* so.

I loved this movie. It follows the same formula as the other Justine movies, it is funny, sexy, a good fantasy story line, with beautiful people, and of course it stars the very beautiful Daneen Boone. I found this a very uplifting movie, something interesting, light entertainment, some laughs punctuated with lots of nudity but nudity in a very tasteful manner. There is never anything obscene which makes this watchable with the girlfriend, who, incidentally loved it as well, especially Daneen, which I agree with. It must have been good casting and either a case of good acting or luck that a part that called for innocence is such portrayed by Daneen. It is good acting as I have seen Daneen's other works, and she was not so innocent looking, and like Lisa Raines, a pity that two such good actresses, and so beautiful too has not featured in more mainstream productions.
