Lie With Me

I gave this 4 stars. I was blown away how true to life this movie is to real life.

I just wanted to add that Eric Balfour is f'n hot in this movie (unfortunately, his acting is rather mediocre). It brings up some interesting philosophical questions about sex, if one likes pondering those sorts of things, but the plot is generally thin and lame (Eric's character apparently has no job and stays home all day taking care of his ailing father; the female lead has pretty unintelligible motives, and half of what she does and why she does it makes no sense).

I still liked it overall. I'd watch it again just 'cause it's so hot. Four stars for hotness.

It is a very stupid movie, no depth into it, no meaning at all to the movie, very stupid story.

This movie wasn't really satisfying - I felt like I watching a porno the entire time, with occasional random scenes of either of the leads doing something that might be considered heartwarming or normal. These two people don't seem to have a life at all - we see the woman working once or twice, and never the man. They are trapped in a sex dream with each other which only gets more intense as their lives start becoming strange on the family front. Not really a great movie to watch, unless you are watching it with someone else for pure pleasure.

I was skeptical about watching this movie because of the mixed reviews, saying it's not very emotional, even empty in places. But its not empty at all, very powerful in fact. The main character explains who she is from the very beginning. It sets the tone for understanding what she does throughout the movie. If you think love must come before sex then you may not like this movie. If you think words should come before sex you may not like it either. Sexual people can express themselves extremely well through a sexual experience, few words spoken, and the act connects them unlike words could. This movie is about understanding extremely sexual people and their search to make themselves whole by connecting with another person. No doubt what they are really searching for is another extremely sexual person. But they are also going to use their bodies to test other people until they find the right person. If that's not OK with you, then don't watch the movie. You won't like it. But if you want to see how two extremely sexual people discover that they are complete by each other, then you'll love it. Liking it or not depends on how you feel about extreme sexuality.
