Summary: They Can't Show Enough Skin to Make This One Appealing
Comment: Ugly people having sex, smothered in tattoos. No, its not a hardcore porn movie. It inhabits the middle distance between hardcore and soft core porn. It is the kind of movie that businessmen pay $4.00 to watch in the privacy of their room at the La Quinta while on a business trip. Erections sans cumshots.

Ask yourself why David (Eric Balfour, a greasy, unattractive dude) would leave the only attractive woman in the movie, Victoria (played by Polly Shannon) for someone as just this side of ugly, Leila (Lauren Lee Smith).

Like most faux art movies, sex moves the plot, rather than the plot incorporating the sex in a meaningful way. The "actors" mumble their lines which are worthless dialogue anyway and not worth hearing.

I would not only add a parental advisory for this film, but would also add the following: "This movie is for immature adults only. Viewer discretion advised and your self-esteem is at stake."

Summary: Quiet, yet moving
Comment: This movie has an art house/independent film presentation. No wasted dialogue (except for a few of the voiceovers). Powerful love/sex scenes. Nice chemistry between the two leads.

Summary: disapointing!
Comment: How this movie got as high a rating as it did is beyond me. I bought it for the ratings but was sadly disappointed. No plot, poor acting, little nudity and only in lead actress (and actor) no others. Even the body of the lead actress left something to be desired (extremely thin with not much muscle tone except legs, and a long torso) For you females, the lead actor had a nice body but he carried himself like a stiff robot and, as I said, the acting was very forced and contrived. What plot there was was really unrealistic with the rapid progress to the sex stage unatural and pretty unbelievable.
Don't buy this movie if you're a thinking person.

Summary: a hidden desire to search for true love.
Comment: in this movie, the two actors met in a party. later, the
female lead showed off her bold desire for sexual enjoyment
under a varieties of situations-including a live show in front of
others.her live-show triggered the male lead's curiosity to
search for her. their consequent sexual endeavors became more
emotional as well as physicial. however, for the male-lead, it
became much more emotional.it awhile for the female-lead to
seach for own personal meaning in life.this movie shows that
people and things can change. the future is clean for most of us.

Summary: Visually & Emotionally Stunning
Comment: Being a fan of both Eric Balfour and Lauren Lee Smith I began the movie with high expectations. Those expectations were not limited or let down. I found this movie brilliant. Not only was it daring and bold but it was sexually stimulating, breathtakingly sensual and emotionally moving. The character study of both David and Leila was in depth and the storyline of the two characters needing each other, yet, needing to learn how to love each other and to be loved was stunning.

The nudity and sexual encounters in the movie only added to its intensity and were never overdone nor just blantant sex. Every moment was full of meaning and the characters emotions.

The actors and director did a wonderful job with this film and I highly recommend it.
