Sex Tape Trailers

When Jay and Annie first got together, their romantic connection was intense – but ten years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark. To kick things up a notch, they decide – why not? – to make a video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex in one marathon three-hour session. It seems like a great idea – until they discover that their most private video is no longer private. With their reputations on the line, they know they’re just one click away from being laid bare to the world... but as their race to reclaim their video leads to a night they'll never forget, they'll find that their video will expose even more than they bargained for.

good back-story, and good acting

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Both main characters are known with their good acting. But i m still surprised how they accepted this porn related inartistic scenario.After watching it i asked myself what i learned or what i remembered? Only remembered thing is people don't make sex after children. Can anyone say me so what?

After seeing the Marines United scandal all over the internet, I decided to indulge in this dumpster fire (Currently on Netflix, for any other masochists).Now, I've always liked Jason Segel as an actor. He has his own style of comedy that he's polished over the last ten years, and not to mention he's an adequate screenwriter.That said, I don't know what happened here. It's like some scientist grew this Jason Segel clone from a test tube. Only a skinnier, painfully unfunny version of him. He somehow even manages to stumble over dialogue that he wrote for himself.Making matters worse is the fact that Segel and Diaz have zero chemistry together.I've never really understood Cameron Diaz's fame. Even as a child I noticed she was an awful actress. Checking out her recent work, one will see that she's on a streak of poorly reviewed films. Go big or go home, I guess.Her performance in this is nothing short of embarrassing. Some scenes (the part where Diaz comes up with the sex tape idea, and the part where Segel tells her the video was sent to their friends, in particular) seem so amateur it's astonishing they didn't do more takes.The whole film has a rushed feel to it. Plot holes, characters doing things without any motives whatsoever, and the feature's failure to comprehend the basic functions of the devices themselves. (Technology is a center point to the movie but for whatever reason they make no attempt to structure this component accurately). There are periods in the script where one has to wonder if it was written by a twelve year old boy.There's a line early on that displays this best; "My **** can see the future, that's why I call it Nostra****mus." Cameron Diaz is seen fully nude from the back not even two minutes into the film (Spoiler: you're not missing anything) and this happens periodically, like they were trying to reach a quota.The music in this movie… if it's not stock music they sure tried. There was a moment where I thought my afghan burner phone was ringing. (THIS IS NOT A JOKE THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED) The lighting in this movie is a mess. Normally I just notice well lit films. If it's nothing special I'll note it as "Whatever" but this needs to be talked about. There are scenes where the lighting is so aggressive you feel like you're watching a stage play. Shiny foreheads, overly white light in a dimly lit living room… its just a train-wreck.The editing in this film, MY GOD THE EDITING. Every single conversation is littered with a barrage of quick cuts. In between conversations, the shots are stale and flat like everything else.The only interesting thing going on here was the flip flop of it's stance on Apple's products. (The interesting bit is behind the fourth wall. Nothing worthwhile going on inside them) I'm confused as to what side of the fence it wants to be on. One minute the couple is upset about the device automatically sending the sex video to their friends and family, the next minute Segel is praising the physical design like he's in a commercial. One scene has him discarding an iPad out a bedroom window, only to later reclaim it from the ground, exclaiming "Man the construction of these things is unbelievable." Another part has him looking at the footage they recorded on the iPad, stating "It's like the best camera ever." Of course since Segel was involved in the creative process, it has his signature serious moments dealing with relationships and feelings and all that. (Just being an ass) It worked in Sarah Marshall but it ain't doing the trick here. It's forced and cringe as hell.I don't want to use the word "redeeming quality" here because it's impossible to save this heap. But the few laughs this got out of me came from the main couple's married friends. Rob Corddry and Ellie Kemper (Lou – Hot Tub Time Machine, Erin – The Office, respectably) do their best and actually manage (somewhat) to out-deliver the awkward jokes that Segel and Diaz could not.Oh, the dog slamming into the wall after stepping on the treadmill, and the ensuing guilt from Segel was pretty good. "Hey, are you okay?" Lmao I'd tell you to avoid this one. But chances are, if you're even reading my reviews you already knew to stay away from this trash long before I typed this up.2/10 Utter trash.

From the beginning Sex Tape set itself up to be a ginormous cliché with plenty of "outrageous" moments that aren't even shocking because they are stale and overused. Speaking of...what's with all the sex scenes. I'm aware of the title of the movie but seriously enough already!After sex comes animal cruelty and drug abuse. WTF this movie doesn't make any sense. The whole way through I couldn't stop rolling my eyes. It was so hard to take seriously even for a comedy. Even the most low-brow comedy lover will find it hard to tolerate this movie.Overall it gave me a few chuckles but the movie was pretty pointless. I wouldn't recommend it.

This was obviously a sort of gratuitous "sex" comedy anyway. Why people are panning this like it's the worst movie ever is beyond me. It's not meant to be Gone With The Wind.It's not infallible, but it's funny and I'm a sucker for seeing Cameron Diaz's body! It's not as bullseye-funny as many of the Apatow comedies that Segal is more known for, but it was still funny. A few scenes were hilarious. I thought Rob Lowe's character was funny, as well as his house! The plot was simple and they stuck with it. People expecting some cinematic masterpiece from a film called "Sex Tape" are aiming way too high. The movie delivered exactly as advertised.I wonder if that was really Cameron's real naked butt!
