The Olivia Experiment (2012)

The Olivia Experiment: Directed by Sonja Schenk. With Skye Noel, Jen Lilley, Brett Baumayr, Michelynne McGuire. Olivia is a 27-year-old grad student who’s beginning to suspect she’s an asexual. To help clear up her issues, she accepts a friend’s offer to try sex with her own boyfriend. But much goes wrong in Olivia’s first foray into sex.

“While the movie has a mildly interesting premise, does a decent job of presenting the awkward heroine, and is competently made, it is just not entertaining. This is really the worst kind of film, one that seems to have the resources to develop into something, but ends up being just a total waste of time. You wait for the punchline, but it never comes. There is no comedy, no drama, no titillation, and not even a resolution. Apparently the viewer is supposed to be too fascinated with the interaction of the stock characters to notice. A shirtless hunk is featured, which I suppose might qualify such a bland and tedious movie as a chick flick, but the plot also includes a chubby dork, which is more expected in a movie for little kids. Rating: inappropriate for all viewers.”
