liam_ring I started off watching this film with little hope of it being very good, but as the film went on, I found myself getting further sucked into the plot and relating with the characters. I usually hate romantic comedies but this film is different to the usual film from the genre - the characters were well developed - I felt like I really knew them and recognised them in people I actually know. The pacing was perfect - not too fast and I was able to get a real sense of what was going on. The plot completely believable too because of how it was presented, the themes of friendship and sexuality were well portrayed and not too rushed.The amount of comedy was perfect and I just generally really liked this film! However I would have liked to have seen more development of Eddy's character if I am brutally honest as I feel that him being gay should have played a bigger part in the film. Although, considering the time it was produced and released, it's safe to say that the film was pretty risky. I would love to see a more modern interpretation or remake.
Jake-219 (spoiler alert) Not that I actually think I'm going to reveal anything this time around, but this is my first review in awhile and I've just discovered that IMDb insists that you put a warning up here.Of all the movies I've seen, of all the films that I love, this would seem to be the one that's most misunderstood on here.For some reason a lot of people (even Stephen Baldwin, one of the stars in the thing who's since gotten religion, and is now disavowing the film) think this is some kind of soft-porn film. It isn't, not at all.So half the people, the ones that wanted it to be a porn film, are disappointed, and the other half, without even having bothered seeing the film, say that it's immoral.This isn't a porn film at all. It's about friendship. It's one of the most on-the-mark movies about friendship that I've ever seen.Is there sex involved? Yes, of course. In case you've never noticed, we (and every other critter on the planet) are sexual beings, it's an urge in all of us.And if anyone would actually watch the film and just pay attention, it isn't all about overcoming inhibitions and setting free your desires; by the end of the film it becomes apparent that there are prices to be paid. (Well, I guess that was a spoiler, of sorts. But what's with this "spoiler" thing, anyway? There isn't a film book in the world that discusses, say, "Psycho" without giving away the ending! Since when has it become so important to not say anything about the movie? Hell, "Threesome" is about two guys and a girl..."SHHH!!! You're spoiling it for me!" LOL) Anyway, it has a very witty yet believable script and wonderful performances by all the actors (including, I must add, one of the most erotic scenes I've ever seen in my life, the one in the library. This might not be porn, but Lara was hot as hell back then!) And, by the end (if you're paying attention, and not assuming or hoping that it was a porn film) you're left on this terribly moving bittersweet note. Times change, people move on.This was a wonderful movie (if misunderstood), much better than its immediate rival that came out around the same time, "Reality Bites." In the end, the thing that the film is truly about is how ephemeral things can be. It can't show you, vividly, how things can fall apart, it can't make you feel for them or what will happen to and between them without spending the first 80 or so minutes putting them together. After all of that, you realize the tragedy and frailty of friendships and loves.And, in the end, that is truly what the movie is about.And, in the end, that's what life is all about.
yeahimsteve This is one of those movies that you stumble across on HBO, and walk away glad that you watched it.I'm not sure exactly what made this movie so great. I think because it was funny, it had a great story line, it gave the characters an extreme sense of sexuality, it reminded me of myself at times, and lastly.......it hinted on what and what NOT to do with women if you want to be successful.It's one of those movies that I agree, is not for young kids, and not for people over 35. I just really got a feel for the characters, and it kept my attention the entire movie.Overall, I'd say that this movie felt real to me. I felt I could relate to the characters, and nothing about this movie was far fetched. It's just one of those movies that you have to see to understand why it's captivating. And see why and how women are attracted to men that they can't have, or create a challenge.
triple8 I will admit threesome is not half as sleezy as the title implies. It was obviously written with a level of maturity and explores themes quite familiar to many kids and it does it in a surprisingly mature way. That said, I did not become involved in this at all. To me, the movie just never picked up steam and although it was far from bad watching this was a bit of an impersonal movie experience, it didn't bore me, as much as leave me with a feeling of detachment. As welldone as the movie was, the characters didn't reach out from the screen and leave me with a feeling of involvment in the storyline. I think the rating here(5.9) is pretty much on the money. I have nothing really bad to say about it except for the fact that it didn't get me involved in the storyline all that much. On the plus side, the movie was surprisingly mature in alot of places. On the minus side, I just wasn't all that interested in the characters. This is one of those movies that I can appreciate while not truely liking very much.
