The full title is Sex Guaranteed - A Love Story, so you figure out early on where the plot is going. Kevin is a nice guy drifting in his job as a roofer, set in New Orleans I believe, and meets this rich guy, played by Stephen Dorff, who wants to help him get his ex-fiance back by giving-him start-up money for an ill-conceived business idea of opening a "Trampoline World". The Dorff character hires him an escort, Zade, who befriend's Kevin and eventually seduces him.
Kevin's ex-fiance, by the way, is now sleeping with Kevin's brother, so the cute Zade (who turns out to be a nice girl from a good family that moonlights as an escort) starts to look like a better option. The best thing in this movie is Stephen Dorff, who is wry, funny, and manic-depressive, while holding these week-long parties at this house, and keeps prompting Kevin to do something about his failed romantic history. The Kevin and Zade/Millie characters are OK, but the actors don't show much range or passion. There is little sex in this movie, until the end when Zade and Kevin hook up, and one brief topless scene. The comedy is pretty bland, as the script could use some work. For example, the movie's funniest scene appears to be where Zade trys to tell a knock-knock joke to an older woman in a supermarket. It's a reasonably pleasant film, with a decent concept, that barely kept my interest for its 83 min. run time. I agree that it needs a different title and would nominate "A week with Zade" or something similar.
