SEX! Now that I've got your attention, let's review director Clark Gregg's controversial new comedy in a polite and informed manner. The film stars Sam Rockwell, once again showing off his leading man credentials as Victor Mancini, a recovering sex addict struggling to balance his sexual sobriety with the demands of his ill mother and his job as a re-enactor at a Colonial tourist attraction.

Unfortunately, a few amazing moments (most of which are in the red band trailer anyway) and a couple of top notch performances can't hold their own against the film's incredibly muddled plotting and an unexpectedly crap American accent from Kelly MacDonald, whose Southern drawl in 'No Country for Old Men' was at the very least passable.

 

Then again, it's not every day you go to the cinema and see a man poo out an anal bead in a police interrogation room, accompanied by the latest Radiohead single. Apparently, Thom was "really, really into it".

'INTERESTING' FACT: Sheeeeeeeeeeeeit. It's Clay Davis from TV's The Wire moonlighting as a disgruntled police detective.
