everything you have heard about this movie is true.
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
She played it brilliantly but it cost her a career since she's not been cast in anything since! Well PHUCK YOU, Hollywood! Buncha hypocrites, this film was the only R rated one I've ever seen which GAVE ME WOOD! Oh my GOD, what guts this woman had to even do it! I've actually known a few females like this and although we guys all want 'em... you can't keep 'em! Nope, sex addiction is the most expensive and life-destroying drug on the planet. You'd be surprised (or maybe not) how many sexually molested females are within 50 feet of you on a daily basis and not even know it but it's more common than most think, as I was a victim of it too when I was a kid.Christina Ricci is not only stunning but brilliant with acting skills and the BALLS to employ them. I wanna have her babies. She's like another Carrie Fisher to me, rocks the apple cart and I love that in women! Cheers
This is the kind of movie where a man shows a woman how to act like a woman. The problem here is that it somehow assumes that a male chaining up a woman is anything other than a form of abuse. WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA? I could not even watch the full movie because I was so annoyed. As a rape victim, this disgusted me. It is never OK to treat a woman like this.This movie guises itself as a coming of age drama, but really, It was just meant for men to get off on. I see no other usage for this film than sexual fantasy fodder, and affirmation that women need men. Even worse this is his spiritual duty. It's some crazy Christian propaganda. Women's sexual freedom bad!! SINFUL!! Male dominance good, control that nasty out of control WOMAN!! Wear the clothes I THINK are appropriate, Act the way I think is appropriate. This is a movie constructed from gibberish with no moral other than "BEHAVE WOMAN!"
Wednesday Addams says a tearful goodbye to Britney Spears' virginity bandit, who is off to his national guard duties. Immediately she gets the screaming thigh sweats and gets plowed by the first coal sausage she can get her hands on. Meanwhile, Jules Winnfield is getting divorced because his wife cheated on him with his brother. Trashy ends up chained to Elmo McElroy's radiator as he feels it's his responsibility to exorcise her coochie demons (unfortunately not by stabbing them to death). When Nsync gets home, we find out his panic attacks are in his head and hers are in her stink-muffin. They bond over it and get married. There better be tartar sauce at the reception.follow me @thebigreviewski on Twitter or The Big Reviewski on facebook.
SPOILERS INCLUDED.I rented this movie back when it came out on DVD, probably sometime in 2008. And I happened to catch it the other night on TV, so I thought I'd watch it again.The first thing that came to mind when I re-watched this, is why in the hell didn't Samuel's character give the poor girl some pants. He's trying to cure her of her nymphomania, but leaves her practically naked so she's free to strip down and F poor unsuspecting visitors to his house while he's away and she's chained to his radiator.She gets beaten almost to death, and no one thinks to find out who did it? I mean sure, she's a slut, but that doesn't mean the beating was deserved. That never gets resolved other than Ronnie beating him up, not knowing what happened btw, so that's just for the audience I suppose.Then there's Ronnie, Justin's character. If he gets anxiety attacks, why is he joining the frickin' army???? He has a full-blown anxiety attack simply because he gets caught between two trucks on the highway. Ridiculous.Then the ending, oh holy hell. So the solution to all this turmoil, her nymphomania-caused-by-abuse and his severe anxiety, is to GET MARRIED??!! They drive away from Samuel's house and all is OK, until he has his traffic attack and she has a nympho attack and she forgets about it by consoling him. Then End.
