Sex Pot

Alright, looking at the movie cover, you already have the assumption that this will be a teen comedy in the likes of "American Pie" or something similar. I thought as much, and wow was I in for a surprise. This movie is about two virgin boys getting wasted on pot and trying to score with the women.

"Sex Pot" is filled with really, really bad dialogue. At most times it is just incoherent lines that are being tossed there, making you think if they had any clue to what had been done or said earlier in the movie. The dialogue was forced, halting and painstaking to listen to. And it wasn't helped one bit by any good acting. The performances put on here in this movie was, well to put it bluntly, uninspiring and dull. There wasn't any energy in the movie at all. And I think, as an aspiring stoner movie, this movie fails to get anyone's buzz on.

It seemed like all that the movie was about was getting as much nudity into the frame whenever possible, and I for one, found it tacky and tasteless. I am not a prude, nor am I offended by nudity, but it just didn't work in this movie, not by a long shot.

I had hoped to get to sit through an adequate comedy and have some good laughs, but truth be told, then I gave up about one-quarter through the movie. I hadn't laughed a single time, and at the pace the movie was progressing and with what happened in the story, there would be nothing in the vicinity of being funny. I gave up on this movie, it just wasn't anything that I had expected and it most definitely didn't suit my liking.

Hats off to those actually sitting through "Sex Pot", then again, we all have different likes and dislikes. Some maybe like this movie, some may not. I was one of the latter.

This movie was a fantastic analysis of the developing male 'id'. The tumultuous plot is a beautiful reflection on the chaotic destruction and recreation of the self-perceived identity of an adolescent mind.

With stunning visuals and brilliant cinematography, this movie simultaneously pays homage to, and critiques classics such as 'American Pie', 'American Pie 2' and 'American Wedding'. It highlights the purity of mirth found in simple humour whilst deriding a director's desperate desire to cling to a plot.

Whilst this movie may not be for everyone, such as the pessimistic and pretentious like Harry Sorensen; those who seek pleasure in entertainment and life in general are sure to enjoy this art film.

If you made this movie with your mates using your iPhone, you would not show it to anyone for fear of the humiliation.

There are no real jokes, and events rarely make any logical sense. Its very unlikely that anything was cut out either, and a lot of scenes give the impression that they were done in a single take without any formal script. Just to give an idea of the low production quality, there are lines where you can clearly see the actors forgetting what they are supposed to say, pausing, and then sort of improvising it. They borrow their jokes, some even from youtube videos but tend to leave half of it out, so you just get a punchline you cant understand(unless you remember the original joke).

The movie logic is contrived also(I cant even call it a plot). There is a sense that the characters are sometimes saying "I should hate you right now, but the next scene requires us to be friends so we are now friends, for no reason". Its like they were so eager to get specific references or gags in that they did not put enough effort into transitioning them. Expect every scene to follow the pattern(no spoilers): Guy 1: Hey, lets go to xxxxx Guy 2: OK Scene:Gag then some standing around Guy 1: Hey, lets go to xxxxx Guy 2: OK Scene: Gag etc

The writing is very questionable, I would question if any of it were ever on paper or just a general idea and word of mouth. Word for word, maybe 20% of the entire script is one of: dude, man, generic f-bomb. It really feels like it was written and shot at the same time, shot for shot, line for line. It will not be clear what is happening at points, a result of trying too hard put zany gags in awkward places and set up scenes lazily. Scenes are too long. Its as though they didn't know how to progress the story at times so nothing happens, for a while, and then there is a random subject change.

Weed is treated like a 13yr old whose older brothers friends gave him some weed once would act around it. Like if you saw a stranger wearing a bob Marley tee shirt you would try to "high 5" them and make "thumbs up" and smoking gestures while pulling a de niro face. Not hilarious, just sad. The gratuitous shots are more pervey than most and the sex is very pubescent-fantasy-esque. Most of the sex is also self administered, so be forewarned.

Its actually worth watching(a few clips will do) just to see how bad it actually is, but do not dare to give it money or you will hate yourself.

I normally like a lot of the Asylum stuff, but this one was kind of a miss. It looked kind of cheap, and wasn't as funny as a lot of other stoner type comedies.

The T&A in the movie wasn't great either except for like one or two. The Asian lesbian chick was cute, but most of the other girls that got naked didn't have very impressive bodies.

A few of the scenes were funny, but it seemed to drag on forever in parts. There was one scene in the basement during the party that just seemed to last FOREVER, way too long, it felt like they were just padding out the length of the movie.

The car wash scene was ridiculous because you could tell that it was just the same girls from a few different angles trying to pretend to be a bunch more.

Overall it was okay but kind of a disappointment, it felt like a funny idea but it didn't live up to what it could have been.

This movie simply is a bloody shame. It is about teenagers experimenting with pot. And to make this dull theme even duller some efforts to have sex are thrown in. Of course they never do have sex, for this is a comedy. So every effort ends in some disaster. These are intended to be funny, but they are straight out of the terrible sex comedies from the 1970's, such as Porky.

The DVD version I saw was in HD and that shows even more clearly what an awful movie this is. The script is awful, the actors are terrible, the direction is ridiculous, all jokes are badly timed, the camera is too static: in one word this is a complete disaster.

Every dime you spend on this movie is lost. You better put them in a slot machine. Who knows it returns something. This movie certainly doesn't.
