“Honestly, I thought this was some sort of detective thriller or maybe horror movie. The fact that itu0026#39;s softcore with Su0026amp;M theme was a bit shocking. It does have some crime aspect, although itu0026#39;s far too flimsy and lacking depth. Audience might find some comedy through its corny delivery, though the movie is one strange experience, itu0026#39;s really not that enjoyable or even approachable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eStory follows a few womenu0026#39;s perspective, each has tie to a dubious porn site. The main plot is a female officeru0026#39;s effort to bring this site down, while a couple of other subplots are shoehorned for promiscuous scenes. In fact, one of them is practically a housewife doing exhibitionism. Investing considerably portion of movie for outdoor exhibitionist is one of many examples of its oddity.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePacing is usually hampered with several nudity or downright dominant play. For what itu0026#39;s worth, a couple of the scenes do have sensual tone as the production has clear idea how to present these. However, the silly antics, excessive gore and borderline porn content are not for mass consumption.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere might be a niche for this kind or movie, for obvious reasons, but casual viewers might find this too bizarre to be entertaining.”
