 | I picked this one up in some duty free shop largely because Rosanne Arquette and Nastassja Kinski were in it. Having watched it one wonders how they talked themselves into participating in this crap. The film is lousy at the very least. There is next to no story line. The picture quality is rather dim. I am sure there are more exciting things to waste money on. |

| This movie is really abysmal. Apart from its promise that it would satisfy everyone's bestial desires, this movie fails on every level. It's filmed on digital video, thus the picture quality is questionable. The acting is the pits and the lead actor is just too old and craggy to be someone credible enough to be a casanova. Utter crap, even if the movie is put under the Hong Kong Category 3 genre. |

| I disagree with this "accurate portrayal of sex addiction", because I do not see how this dude gets women like that, as he does. But I knew this was to be about addiction, not just some trashy soft-porn thang... People gripe about the cheap-home-video method used to shoot this film/flick/whatever... Don't you get it? It looks that way on purpose! Like it's supposed to be a "Dateline" type of visual. I agree, though, with the reviewer who couldn't believe the tough guy would p..y out when finding the cops were coming. But I liked how the character pretty much put the addict in the spot about "Can you teach me to get p..y like you?" (like he's onto what this guy is sneaking around doing, as if no one can tell.) Also agree that the addict sure doesn't seem to work much... I found this movie really gripping. Despite glaring differences, it caused me to honestly examine my own behaviors (though I don't "score" nearly quite him...). The movie could have been a lot more realistic IMO. But that's Hollywood for ya ... |
| Rating | | | Date | May 07, 2002 | | Summary | Among top 2 WORST movies I've ever seen | Content
| I bought this movie (tape format) basically because of the following 3 reasons:
1) Arquette and Kinsky were in it
2) Front artwork and title were kind of luring.
3) Bluckbuster had a discount for it on tape (9.99)
Terrible waste of money and time. Mediocre video mode, from the very start makes it look like the cheapest soap opera. What is worse, bottom line absolutely everything in the movie really ends up reaching the level of the cheapest soap opera you might be able to think of. Arquette's explosion at the end is indeed the only 10 seconds worth watching as another reviewer said, there's really nothing else worth the time and money. For the 10 bucks I had to pay for the tape that's the makes those the 10 most expensive seconds of movie material I've paid for in my life. Don't waste your time/money unless you want to explore how BAD a movie can be. Don't even read more review, just pick any other DVD, *ANY* other, it won't be this bad believe me. |
