SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
bjarias Satisfaction is an addiction, difficult to give up. This is a well done really great series.. bit.ly/15eawEQ .. and it's too bad it could not have lasted for another several seasons. It would seem like these shows should be fairly easy to produce... just having beautiful women dress seductively, say a few lines, remove their clothing, and film it all. Well if it is, why do so many get it so wrong. There are some stunning women in Satisfaction that a majority of men (and women) would find extremely alluring. It's a well done production from top to bottom, and for the short three season run, not at all 'unsatisfactory.' It was a real loss though to have a couple of the lead actors depart the series early... they had become such an integral part of the production. It was clear they would be very hard to replace. But for many just watching the incredible, addictive Madeleine West alone.. bit.ly/1behksb .. over the course of the three seasons would be more than enough. Although it would have been very nice to have seen her a bit longer. The series on the whole was very highly regarded, winning awards and praise. One reviewer commenting.. "Satisfaction is like dipping your toes into a warm bath and sipping on the finest champagne." And we'll never know, but had it been able to make it to air in the U.S., maybe the infatuation and intoxication would have been able to continue on for a bit longer.
lovencare-jess Oh I loved how beautifully they've brought up each character in this show. Im absolutely mezmerized, and left addicted to it. I couldn't believe it was over i wish they had shown a little better closure on the characters lives. Please please please! can some one suggest similar shows. Not 'secret diary of a call girl' some home a sex scene feels ridiculous without nudidty, sweat, panting. I feel Secret diary of a call girl is more commercialized, where the main character....i donot knopw how to put this correctly...'non- relatable', or too superfitial. I guess what im trying to say is that in 'satisfaction they could successfully show each character as normal individuals u meet in ur day to day life, with real problems, and emotions.So u guys must have picked up the hint by how impressed im by the shows and am craving to c more of similar show's with real in depth feeling. I have tried every possible way of searching for similar shows but in vain u guys r my last hope. Love, Jessica.
T R I was very disappointed and surprised to hear "Satisfaction" had been canceled after only 3 seasons. I have to be honest, till recent years I have not been a fan of Australian TV series. However, shows like this and "Love My Way" and "Spirited" have changed my mind and made me take a second look at Australia drama."Satisfaction" could have continued for at least another 2 seasons. Stories were left untold. The writing was good and it had an excellent ensemble. I found myself very involved with the various characters and as another reviewer stated --- at last a show in which sex workers are not presented as one dimensional.It's good to see series like "Satisfaction" and "Secret Diary of a Call Girl" and others showing sex workers in a much more realistic light. Sex workers are usually wrongly portrayed as down and out, amoral junkies. This is a complete myth and is also born from misogyny. Personally I have a number of friends who are sex workers and they are some of the most caring, open-minded and non-judgmental people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. They've shared many stories about their lives and their experiences and a great deal of their work involves compassion, kindness and acceptance. I hope at least in this short run of "Satisfaction" it will help change the public's mind about the negative stereotypes portrayed until now.
Genevieve_X As someone who has worked in a similar type establishment, I was really curious to see how this portrayal of sex workers and their client in a legal Melbourne brothel would pan out. There is a long history of sex workers being portrayed in film and television as victims. I know that there are women in the industry who have had horrible experiences, but there are a lot of women in every day life who have also had these kind of experiences, but prostitutes are usually disproportionately portrayed as having being sexually abused, being drug dependent or being abused by men.I was so pleased with Satisfaction. Although it is a television drama, (and it does look like one) with gorgeous characters in gorgeous clothes living in gorgeous homes, what it succeeds so well at is its portrayal of the workers as complex women from different backgrounds, working in a well run industry for their own reasons. It is interesting that there is a focus on sexual fantasy type bookings, which is not the general brothel experience, but I guess it is the most interesting for television! The sex scenes are realistic, and not tacky, and the clients are also more than the usual one dimensional 'john'. This is really great Australian television! And for those Australian women (and few men) who have never set foot in an Australian brothel, this is about as close as television/film gets to portraying something close to the real thing. 10/10.
