| Customer Reviews: Seduction, betrayal, murder October 28, 2007 W. G. Proud (Cambridge, UK) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a well-written, well-acted film in which several characters are involved in a variety of relationships - some of which take a distinct turn for the sinister. The film is reminiscent of many Hollywood 1950's detectives films and compares well with "Live Flesh", the Almodovar Film based on a PD James novel.
br /
br /There are a small number of nude shots and a very brief, almost laughable, scene about "Sex Addicts Anonymous" (shades of Basic Instinct / Color of Night) which is used mainly to show that some of the characters are troubled in a number of ways. This might not match well with the title of the film, which would seem to promise lots of de-robing! The reason for the title, however, is closely linked to one of the characters.
br /
br /After watching this you may have a new-found relationship with really strong coffee which adds a comic twist near the end of the film.
br /
br /Overall I watched this with some friends and everyone thought it was an excellent crime film - which kept peoples attention to the end. So 5-stars !
A Real Treat! March 23, 2008 Peaches (UK) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Not the sex-a-thon movie you might expect from the title and, considering the 2 main protagonists are receiving treatment for sex addiction, this is quite tame, in that sense. What you have here is actually a suspense thriller, that gets you hooked into all it's twists.
br /
br /The characters of Victoria and Javier meet up at a `Sex Addicts' therapy group. They hit it off, and one night, he offers to take her home. On entering the car park, he can't find his car, so they start to have sex in a battered old dodge car. Later this car comes up in a crime that will link them both.
br /
br /Victoria Abril is adorable as always, and Javier Bardem is such an accomplished actor, he's a pleasure to watch. If you're familiar with Spanish cinema, there are many faces you will recognise here. This is a real treat for Spanish movie lovers.

Dear oh Dear January 19, 2007 Sadler's Wells (Leeds. Yorkshire) 22 out of 34 found this review helpful
Do not be deceived by the title. This film is not sexually explicit in any way.
br /
br /As viewing that sort of scene was the reason I bought it, you can imagine my disappointment. Is there compensation in the storyline, I am afraid not.
br /
br /The leading lady did add comedy though. Whatever she was doing from patting the pet dog, to ordering in the restaurant, or having sex in the back of car, she always had the expression of a housewife who has just walked into Sainsbury's to find that they have changed all the shelves around.
br /
br /Hopeless for the voyeur. As always, for the intelligent viewer, my reviews are a waste of time.
