After Sex
What do people chat about after sex?
Unfortunately, in the hands of writer/director Eric Amadio, this rather titillating question results in eight trite, entirely overcooked conversations. Almost every sexual cliche is catered for: the college girl "experimenting" with other girls, the sexually confused frat boy, sex with the ex, the first time, the one night stand, and so on. Amadio handles all with an intense sobriety while trying to pass it off as playfulness.
Bogged down by a horrendously overwritten script, familiar TV faces including Mila Kunis, Marc Blucas and Jane Seymour do their best to make serious, scintillating work. To their credit, there are interesting moments amongst the paint-by-numbers storylines.
Looking for something to do after sex? Try Coffee And Cigarettes instead.
