    Not At All Funny --- Even Less Sexy

    It took me two attempts to get through this movie, and the only reason I did is that I'm the type of person who absolutely insists on watching an entire movie unless it is completely unwatchable. I fell asleep on the first attempt, and got through the second time though it wasn't any better. I was wide awake on both attempts.

    This movie is not that horrid, but it is quite boring with a predictable and unfunny script. The acting is not great but I've seen the stars of this (the two main female leads) in other movies where they were fantastic, so I think the real problem here is that they didn't have much to work with (again, the script).

    It just seems like a lazy, boring movie, where they probably got funding from a studio based entirely on walking in and saying "hey we can get these two sexy women to be in a movie that's about an orgy" and then they coasted on that.

    It's not at all funny and even less sexy.

    Bored on a Saturday afternoon

    My fella spotted the title so I switched it on. from the title I thought is was either gonna be a soft porn poor attempt at titillating housewives or complete garbage. How wrong can a girl be. from the embarrassment of late teens through some clever humour demonstrating the innocence presumptions of people who come to recognise their own shortcomings. The displacement of emotional issues combined with some heartless attempts at realising some very real desires. Mingled together this film allows a couple of hours of pleasant viewing and well worth a watch.

    A Comedy (That Makes You Sad) About Sex (With No Nudity). Fraudulent Title.

    The title implies sex and the category implies laughs. This misleads the viewer before they even begin watching the film. Therefore, halfway through, you are disappointed. I felt really bad for the guy who had the birthday party - everyone was mean to him for no reason. Comedies aren't supposed to make you feel bad and disappoint the viewer for over an hour. Fail. This is an example of how a bad title can ruin a movie.

    Oh, by the way, it's also a terrible and unbelievable story. Never in the history of film has more clothing been worn during sex scenes. It wouldn't surprise me if multiple actors passed out from dehydration or heat stroke trying to film all that sex in all of those clothes. The most prudishly directed film of this century.

    Below expectations

    Don*t expect too much: the trailer let you expect a funny, clever story with good actors and some tasty erotic. The story is good, but presented uninspired, many gags are lame and flat and finally, the graphic could easily be described as prude. OK, right: a movie with a story like that does with the right skills not need nudity at all. But with a scene the male actor clawing into the breast of the him riding woman to avoid nudity the film becomes hypocrite and lame ! The most explicit scene is a young, half naked no name actress, the rest is uptight avoidance. If they would play everything fully clothed, it would at least be art. Grow up, America !

    Cute little awkward film

    I see the bad reviews, and I guess I'm off the mark. I thought it was adorable. A wonderfully awkward depiction of a taboo that has probably happened!

    You have to be from a small town to really understand I guess, having lived in one, and still knowing friends that live in them, this was a little walk down memory lane to the people and places of my youth.

    I thought it was a good little Canadian film, with solid performances.

    • Quotes

      Alice Solomon: [about Seth playing video games all the time] What is the appeal, here? I mean, you just die and then you do it all over again.

      Seth Parsons: Yeah. That's what I like about it. When Mario dies, he doesn't rage against the world, he just picks himself up, goes back to the start and tries again, until he figures out how to save the Princess.
