That was an excellent one.

Admirable film.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

After seeing the Marines United scandal all over the internet, I decided to indulge in this dumpster fire (Currently on Netflix, for any other masochists).Now, I've always liked Jason Segel as an actor. He has his own style of comedy that he's polished over the last ten years, and not to mention he's an adequate screenwriter.That said, I don't know what happened here. It's like some scientist grew this Jason Segel clone from a test tube. Only a skinnier, painfully unfunny version of him. He somehow even manages to stumble over dialogue that he wrote for himself.Making matters worse is the fact that Segel and Diaz have zero chemistry together.I've never really understood Cameron Diaz's fame. Even as a child I noticed she was an awful actress. Checking out her recent work, one will see that she's on a streak of poorly reviewed films. Go big or go home, I guess.Her performance in this is nothing short of embarrassing. Some scenes (the part where Diaz comes up with the sex tape idea, and the part where Segel tells her the video was sent to their friends, in particular) seem so amateur it's astonishing they didn't do more takes.The whole film has a rushed feel to it. Plot holes, characters doing things without any motives whatsoever, and the feature's failure to comprehend the basic functions of the devices themselves. (Technology is a center point to the movie but for whatever reason they make no attempt to structure this component accurately). There are periods in the script where one has to wonder if it was written by a twelve year old boy.There's a line early on that displays this best; "My **** can see the future, that's why I call it Nostra****mus." Cameron Diaz is seen fully nude from the back not even two minutes into the film (Spoiler: you're not missing anything) and this happens periodically, like they were trying to reach a quota.The music in this movie… if it's not stock music they sure tried. There was a moment where I thought my afghan burner phone was ringing. (THIS IS NOT A JOKE THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED) The lighting in this movie is a mess. Normally I just notice well lit films. If it's nothing special I'll note it as "Whatever" but this needs to be talked about. There are scenes where the lighting is so aggressive you feel like you're watching a stage play. Shiny foreheads, overly white light in a dimly lit living room… its just a train-wreck.The editing in this film, MY GOD THE EDITING. Every single conversation is littered with a barrage of quick cuts. In between conversations, the shots are stale and flat like everything else.The only interesting thing going on here was the flip flop of it's stance on Apple's products. (The interesting bit is behind the fourth wall. Nothing worthwhile going on inside them) I'm confused as to what side of the fence it wants to be on. One minute the couple is upset about the device automatically sending the sex video to their friends and family, the next minute Segel is praising the physical design like he's in a commercial. One scene has him discarding an iPad out a bedroom window, only to later reclaim it from the ground, exclaiming "Man the construction of these things is unbelievable." Another part has him looking at the footage they recorded on the iPad, stating "It's like the best camera ever." Of course since Segel was involved in the creative process, it has his signature serious moments dealing with relationships and feelings and all that. (Just being an ass) It worked in Sarah Marshall but it ain't doing the trick here. It's forced and cringe as hell.I don't want to use the word "redeeming quality" here because it's impossible to save this heap. But the few laughs this got out of me came from the main couple's married friends. Rob Corddry and Ellie Kemper (Lou – Hot Tub Time Machine, Erin – The Office, respectably) do their best and actually manage (somewhat) to out-deliver the awkward jokes that Segel and Diaz could not.Oh, the dog slamming into the wall after stepping on the treadmill, and the ensuing guilt from Segel was pretty good. "Hey, are you okay?" Lmao I'd tell you to avoid this one. But chances are, if you're even reading my reviews you already knew to stay away from this trash long before I typed this up.2/10 Utter trash.

Torture, that's the word that springs to mind when someone asks me what Sex Tape was like. They shouldn't bother with water boarding in Guantanamo just roll in a TV showing sex tape and within 20min the imprisoned individual will tell you whatever you need to know. CIA if you're reading this, your welcome. Jay (Jason Segal) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) are a happily married couple, however with most couples that are married with children their sex life is lacking, it has fell to the way side in the recent years. So one night they decide to spice things up get drunk and film a sex tape on their I-pad, a 3 hour long sex tape. Jay unconsciously uploads the sex tape via the cloud, which happens to be linked to all the devices he once had in his possession. Those devices include the number of I-pads that the couple gave their friends, family, business acquaintances and even the grey bearded Gandalf looking mailman. For the duration of the movie Jay and Annie scramble around the neighbourhood trying to steal the I-pads back so they can delete the sex tape off the devices before anyone is the wiser. Jason Segal is renowned for his great comedy flicks ever since he entered the scene on Freaks and Geeks in 1999. You can imagine my utter disappointment when I had to endure this torturous flick while waiting for Jason Segal to somehow turn it all around…….that moment never came. It was a very awkward performance from both Jason and Cameron with the jokes being very forced and the physical comedy unbelievable and unnatural. They tried to hard and you could see it the whole movie. I wont even touch on the fact that Jason Segals character Jay is supposed to be a tech savvy man that boasts on earlier that he can organise all his music libraries but is incapable of understanding the very simple principle of the cloud and its properties. Cameron Diaz 15 years ago could have distracted the terrible dialogue and plot with her bare naked behind but those days are dead and gone, not even her good body at her age could pull away from the poor acting, plot, and overall abysmal excuse for a comedy. Do yourself a favour and tape over sex tape…..why the movies is called sex tape and they take a recording on their I-phone is beyond me. Mr. unimpressed remains extremely unimpressed.

I gave it 3 out of 10 stars and that is me being very generous. This film was awful!! My husband and i watched it and 45 Min's in he said can we watch something else! The over acting and the lame jokes just made me cringe. I like Jason Segel from HIMYM so i thought it would be good but no this was definitely one of his more worse performances! Why would you make a sex tape if you wanted to delete it anyway? The whole goose chase thing to get back the copies is getting old in movies. I really don't recommend this film one bit because it's a waste of time and in my opinion one of Cameron Diaz's worse films ever. I think Jason Segel should just stick to TV in future because I also didn't like him in Bad Teacher either.

The premise of this movie could have been really good. However, this is probably the worst comedy I have ever seen in all seriousness. The premise is that in an attempt to rekindle their marriage a couple make a sex tape. When it accidentally gets sent to all their friends they've got to recover all the copies of the tapes. Now Jason seagal is the lead in this film and the best thing I can say is that he is the funniest in this film but he still is unfunny. I just found him to be a stupid character and I didn't laugh at all at his jokes. Cameron Diaz is a beautiful woman but she sucks in this film. I didn't care about her and I just found her to be the stupidest character ever in this film. She was just so unfunny in this film. The rest of the supporting cast is so unbelievable that it takes you out of the movie and there not funny either. The story felt way too long and unnecessary and actually like a commercial for I pads. The sex wasn't very interesting and the overall story of the film wasn't interesting. The biggest complaint I have with this film is the script because this film is just really not funny. The situations are all isolated and drawn out for too long that makes them really unfunny. The style sucked because this film was massively pg for a film called sex tape. The film hides allot of the sex and doesn't make you care about the situations these people are in. Overall there are really no positives to this film and it must be avoided.
