If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I caught this flick late one night while I was sick with the flu. It didn't improve my outlook one bit. "After Sex" is one heckuva dreary film focusing, in its own disjointed way, on the aftershocks of intimacy. Or at least thats what it tries, and fails, to do. I have to admit that the idea of having outsiders comment on the action ala Greek Chorus is interesting, but in this case its done in such a clumsy way that it actually hurts the production.The acting is the second weak point. The actors seemed to either be ham fisted over the top or phoning in their lines via collect call.The end result is something akin to what you'd get if Tommy Wiseau's "The Room" met and had a baby with "The View", and then complained about it for an hour and a half.

This focuses around the lives of four women, all good friends, and their male companions. Each has a story, the men as well, everything links everybody to everybody and everything is being brought to a quick change after a trip the girls take to Palm Springs.Basically, the film is no different from other of the genre, but I liked the details. Brooke Shields is a divorcée that fears loneliness, therefore she bangs just about everybody to get to have a "warm body" next to her in the morning, but then can't really commit. As a man, I find these women are a blessing :), but she is not a happy person. Everything else that happens revolves around this crazy woman, but in the end we get more clarity over life and relationships, which is good.I can't tell if the acting was bad. It didn't seem to me. The script was a little inconsistent, but not more than any romantic comedy. It's a bit more depressing than most, which is good, because you don't get dreary romantic comedies every day :)It's worth a watch with the missis, especially if you have cheated on her or plan to ...

Usually when I review any film, good or bad, I like to comment on why I have the feelings I do. But in the case of this film I truly cannot be bothered. This film lacks good direction, has lame acting, a terrible script and starts to be become laughable and in poor taste. It also shows that the actors and actresses really have chosen a project that will bring a quick end to their careers. I am talking of people such as Brooke Shields (Suddenly Susan), Virginia Madison (from the great romantic comedy ‘Electric Dreams') and D.B. Sweeney, so on and so on. So my rating for the film? CMRS gives ‘About Sex': 0.5 ( - Bad Film) Why? Well quarter of that rating goes to the entire cast, crew and behind the scenes people for turning up for a few weeks and putting on a movie, albeit a disgraceful one. The other quarter, goes to the best parts of the movie, that of the two men talking in what looks like a psychologist's office. I have plenty of experience in such a place, and a lot of what these guys say makes plenty of sense. It is a shame the other parts of the film did not add up. Enough has been said already. Please beware. This is a film that you will most likely hate, with a vengeance, because I know I do.

I was pleasantly surprised with this one. It's actually quite interesting and engaging. The cast is strong, even Dan Cortese. Brooke Shields has come into her own as an actress. Black and White must have really set her free, 'cause I have never seen her in this much command playing a conventional character. If marketed right, could be a medium-size hit.
