“Documentary film makers have a responsibility to its audience, to get to the bottom of a story, to be accurate in the story youu0026#39;re presenting. Simply, to tell the truth.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNot only does this film negate any of the above qualities; the first half hour plays out like an episode of Jersey Shore. Scripted scenes, presented as u0026quot;realityu0026quot; included.nA good documentary contains an objective and broad overview of a subject, while zeroing in on its macro and micro societal implications and their effects.nThe objective of the film makers own notions, is made obvious, with their chosen location and time period.nPanama resort, during spring break.nSomehow this small world and time period is meant to represent an entire generation and their belief and value system around sex?!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis film does make some valid points surrounding the mediau0026#39;s influence on sexuality. However, not enough to lend an validity to the films subject.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe level of integrity, ethical responsibility, and accuracy, for what constitutes a documentary nowadays, is well depicted, in this films shameful direction, about an entire generation.”
