Sometimes I enjoy a movie so bad it's entertaining... this didn't quite get there but it tried hard. The main character is somehow every woman's fantasy- after one conversation, they literally beg him to do the nasty. AND, these women all like it really rough- just his type. What a lucky guy! I wish I could wrap my head around the appeal, but this is no James Bond. He's not clever, funny, charming, or terribly attractive. So each unimaginative sex scene is funnier than the last. The acting isn't the worst I've seen, but it's such a ridiculous story it doesn't matter. I lost track of characters because I didn't care and certain plot points got muddled. The ending was awful, with a most unbelievable red herring (bad acting didn't help) and there's not much of an explanation behind the killer's motive. At least I guessed right early on who it was... kind of hard not to notice the guy is basically a sociopath who can't emotionally connect to anyone. Somehow a trained therapist was blinded by lust (again, why?) and didn't notice in time. It made for a good background movie because it doesn't require brain cells to follow along... just don't expect to be rewarded for your time.
