Supersex

I don't even know what drew me to the show (oh well probably the title) but I definitely didn't expect such a great quality show. I watched it in Italian and the actors were all great - top notch really. I'm still not 100% sure what the point of the story was to be honest but I just enjoyed watching it as a whole as the delivery was just that good. I don't think the dude had the most interesting life (most details were probably a little embellished) but it was just a glimpse into a different world which I really liked. And a bonus : even though this is a Netflix show, it wasn't the typical "we need to include everything and everyone " kind of spiel which I'm just so tired of. So definitely give this a Chance!

Don't get fooled by the title and the premise.

This is a deep drama series.

Yes, there are some sex scenes, but they are never self serving, but have meaning.

You won't see the "making of" porn movies, but you get a character drama played extremely well by very talented actors.

I am pretty sure that this movie has put the industry in a too generous light, even if you actually get a little taste, how it is in the inside in reality.

I enjoyed the series very much and I can only recommend it.

Apparently some people, who wrote reviews here didn't really understand what it is all about, like the writer whose review is on the main page with the title of "Highly romanticised sleazy life":

If that guy thought, this movie is an "advertising" for sleazy lifestyle and tries to romanticize how porn actors are rich people competing on the same level with Hollywood stars, then he saw a different movie or he just have no clue about anything in life.

If you like drama, watch it. If you want to watch porn, go to pornhub.

Mesmerising, excellent character development, you feel and connect with all the characters, the language makes it even more powerful, the sec scenes complement the film and they don't feel 'raunchy' but part of the story. I binged it and now I miss Rocco and the series. I strongly recommend it. More than it says on the tin.

Each episode has depth and ads a lot to the story, you really feel like you are following a person and a family through an entire life. You also feel the agony and the despair, you really feel for Rocco and love him deeply. The female characters are strong and give a feminist perspective without diminishing the male characters. Masterful directing.

Keep an open mind when engaging in this series as it will challenge convention. It will go into multiple layers of storytelling in order to provide background for the pathology behind the "birth" of one of the most famous actors in the adult industry. The series is unexpectedly good and well implemented, well acted and has a very binding atmosphere.

Plot starts from childhood and the troubles that come with battling catholic house hold drama in a small Italian town. The intricacies that follow offer a Dostoievskian twist to the overall vibe of the series with an intertwining destiny between the protagonist, its muses & his calling.

A very human, very sensitive, touching and true. A real work of art disguised as a porn documentary.

When something I watch comes to an end and I feel sad that it finished, I know that it was really grand. This is exactly what I felt when this documentary finished. Sad.

So it is so strange to me that it has scored so low, so far. Perhaps people feel embarrassed when porn is involved, or the taboo of porn is so hard to overcome. When I gave this a score of nine, I knew that I did it a misservice, because deep down I know it deserves a ten. But, as I have said, the subject of porn is taboo and I think it has affected me as well.
