Goofs

(at around 14 mins) The 3D printer shown in close up was miscalibrated, spitting filament from at least 3mm higher than it should have. A properly calibrated 3D printer has about a paper's thickness gap between the hot-end's nozzle and the print's top surface layer.

User Reviews

It Gives A Little But It Is A Tease

This is a well-acted and well-designed film. It is satisfying because the movie addresses multiple fantasies like having a menage a trois, being with a nubile schoolgirl and of course cheating and scoring babes. Yet, as much as the audience is treated to a little skin ultimately there is no sex scene. Disappointment ensues. It does have an interesting ending since the man of the house is certainly off the hook, which is fair enough since he resisted the episode to begin with.
