Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
khi590 . This movie is pure reality -happening every day every hour even via internet nowadays, how a relationships may develop - first love resulting in marriage with two kids developed into feeling of being strangers,complete break, having to lonely masturbate in the family toilet - soooo sad. After divorce children's' visits one day a week only, resulting in self made meals, it is such an unnatural uncomfortable meeting with one parent instead of both that could be best family time instead. In that loneliness then one parent finding love to a stranger, bilateral attraction, while one partner just enjoys fancy, the other part looks for more, but with that attitude induces the mystery slowly resolving back to reality. It is sooooo moving to watch how dream bubbles disappear slowly slowly, and a tragedy evolves. Such a precious movie, daring performance of both actors and director. The music is gorgeous. Tat movie is one of my ever favorites, OK THE favorite - wow - what a movie..prizes were raining (silver bears in Berlin),no prize good enough for Mark Rylance's outstanding performance (should have been platinum - or star dust, really)- wow
kikoshaus This movie is not good at all. Apart from the explicit sex scenes, which seemed to be the first ones to be screened in the UK, I do not see what's new about this movie.A man and a woman sharing their bodies for pleasure only. Sex-based communication and that's it. So, what else?Kerry's acting is fine enough though. A couple of scenes in foggy weather are interesting to watch. However, the man getting obsessed about her without being able to ask her a thing instead... it's just pathetic.If a movie needed to show explicit sex scenes without being in the category of "pornographic film" in the UK, then I don't get it why to write such a very simple plot with anything extraordinary in this. I think it's just a waste of time watching this film!
alstarship I thought that this movie was interesting because one does not see 'Real Sex' in regular Hollywood movies, real sex is only seen in X rated movies. Its nice to see a different 'Real' take on what is illuded to in most films with sex scenes in them. I would have given this good movie a higher rating but I had not much if anything to compare it to other than any NC-17 movies I have seen in the past. NC-17 movies I thought contained the most nudity next to adult rated X movies. Even though mostly teenage boys will like this film for its inherent sexual content, I watched this film with my girlfriend and she said that it was a very enjoyable and very different movie in the way sex is used to explain the story.
DICK STEEL Picture your life this way if you can: You are a regular bloke. You work as a bartender in a pub. Your wife has left you and has custody over your two kids. Your friends are a gay and a totally whacked out stoner.The only thing you look forward to, is the afternoon of Wednesdays. That's when an annonymous female stranger knocks on your door, enters your home and the both of you have sex.Just sex. Nothing else. You don't even talk to each other. Just plain humping. And she leaves after that, leaving you basking in orgasmic pleasure.And that, covers about 1/3 of the movie. Not just one sex scene, but plenty in between. Nothing fancy, just straight to the point humping.Things start to get complicated when you try to find out more about the life of this stranger, and the viewer is presented the background, motives and rationale behind the two lead characters.That's it. With one final hump, the movie ends. I suppose it's for the arty-farty folks, but heck, i think 90% of the audience in the sold-out theatre didn't comprehend what the movie is trying to put across.
