After Sex

Boring movie !! Total waste of time. I expected something completely different from the movie. I could no longer look at. This is definitely a joke! 0/10 *

A complete cringeee fest and I'm not here for it The gay characters had bad dialogues and cliched representation

It's one of those kinds of films where you want the better ones to go on much longer.. and those you don't like as much to be eliminated. But seriously, while it's overall not a terribly memorable flick.. there are two reasons to watch this movie today... early Mila Kunis and Taryn Manning. To see them few years back is a treat.. Kusis is something else.. but Manning is absolutely incredible as Alanna. For both of them, these are totally minor roles, but what they are able to do with them shows the reason why they have moved on to do special work. And there are a couple of other relatively unknown actors in this piece that do very good work. Casting did especially well in this production.. had they not been as proficient.. this would more than likely have been much less enjoyable.

After Sex is an anthology film that mostly doesn't give its segments enough time to feel substantial. It's not boring or overlong, but also gives off a feeling of being rather low-effort.

The writing is the worst part of this movie. As an anthology movie, it's thematically consistent or at least none of the segments feel out of place, but most of them are very surface-level. Each revolves around some aspect related to sex, but the segments are over before they can explore anything interesting. Not in a way where I'm left wanting more out of the thrilling plots and characters, but more wondering what the point was when I just watched several minutes of generic indie fare. I don't remember any good jokes either; the opening credits are the most clever part of the film. Some segments are better than others, namely the ones which attempt actual character development. The worst is the one about the old couple, which is nothing but a one-note dialogue with comedy that doesn't land.

Despite the underwhelming writing, I think the movie does look kind of good, in an early 2000s way. The locations are pretty mundane but the movie does what it can to look visually appealing. I also remember liking the music, which has an identity and fits the scenes.

After Sex is not what I would call bad, just a watchable movie that never rises above mild amusement. It's more generally uninteresting than downright boring, and the fast pace, while compromising the quality of each segment, does prevent it from overstaying its welcome.

...a really honest movie about sex. I even created an account just so I could say how much I appreciated the candor and variety presented in this film. The characters are complex, yet accessible, and the dialog is comprehensive and thoughtful, yet not at all pretentious. Each vignette is just long enough to be interesting and complete, yet not too long, so you won't get bored by too much talk. As as Sociologist, I may be a little biased (I can people watch for hours), but the subject matter will captivate - trust me.

I am at home, sacked out on the couch with pneumonia, right now, or I would say more. But, know that I went to the trouble of creating this account just to brag on this movie. It will pique your interest, trust me. Cheers.
