Initial Thoughts:
So if you’re new to my blog you may not know this about me, I love sex (like most people!) and I’ve always been fascinated by it. For a long time that just got me to watch movies/shows with nudity/sex in it but I have also come to quite enjoy watching documentaries about it. My wife was out bowling last night and after spending a long time deciding, I finally settled on this documentary on Tubi.
Main Points:
I’m going to go a little off topic here, it’s my blog after all. It is interesting, and annoying, that entertainment has swung back around almost to where it started. Now instead of watching ads on network TV, I watch them on streaming services. I’m old enough that I don’t mind as much ads during a show but during a movie is really annoying and takes you out of it, such is the case with Tubi. I think next time I find something there I will have to make the attempt to stream it from elsewhere. Ok back on track, it needs to be said that while I think this was a good idea for a documentary, it’s is so low budget/amateurish that it is hard to watch, I had to spread it out over 3 sittings.
The interviews are good and the women are all fascinating, beautiful and sexy. You have really annoying things happen like some random sound it picked up during an interview, my speakers picked up on it and suddenly got louder, so much so that Eleanor, one of our cats, was woken from her slumber and looked around intently. You can see the cuts almost with a line through the women’s faces, there are interviews where you can hear a cat meowing and another where it’s hard to hear with people outside in the background. They have these really strange shots of the women doing sexual/suggestive posing and it’s ultra close up and has this bizarre creepy atmospheric music playing in the background. My point of all this is that if the filmmaker had more money/higher production values, this would have been a lot better. They even resort to one of the women holding up her phone (with a huge crack in it) and scrolling through her iPhone to show us nude/states of undress pics! Enough though, you get my drift.
I loved how the women interviewed embraced their sexuality/power so freely and were not ashamed to show their interest in kink/fetish/BDSM. As another reviewer pointed out, the title is terrible as this is barely about fetish and much more kink/BDSM/sexuality. Trying to get people to watch it by including “Fifty Shades” is also not needed and I would think didn’t help at all. All that said I did enjoy the interviews and the interviewer does ask good questions and let his guests talk a great deal.
Final Thoughts:
This is certainly not for children. There is lots of nudity (including full frontal), some talk of explicit sex, and women in very suggestive/sexual poses, so ages 19+. At almost 2 hours I found it long, it could have used better editing and/or another woman to talk to. I will ignore the commercials, and not make that a detractor, as perhaps if you want to watch it you will choose another way besides Tubi. So all that said I would give it a generous 6 out of 10. If you can handle the low budget and the other annoying things I would give this a very cautious recommend. Everyone has sex and most people love it, so it is always a good subject to talk about.
