Overrated and overhyped
... View MoreIt's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreThis is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
... View MoreBoth 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?
... View MoreI watched this on TV, hoping for some comedic relief. Diaz and Segel play Annie and Jay, a married couple longing for the hot sex of their youth. After a long marriage and two kids they decide to re-kindle the spark by filming their cavorting in all the positions of "The Joy of Sex".The film goes on the "cloud" and it must be retrieved before friends and neighbors can watch it. The operation is further complicated by the fact that Jay donates "old" iPads to friends and syncs his stuff. I laughed a few times, although the plot started to loose steam when Annie and Jay spent a very long time at Annie's boss house. The story wraps up with a visit to YouPorn servers' warehouse and a school presentation - the very last gag. Besides being only moderately funny, the dialogue is crammed with more swearing than a Tarantino movie. I am not sure if American middle-aged couples talk to each other like that, but it did seem excessiveI used to like Cameron Diaz but lately she seems to have given up and playing only vulgar and/or predictable. The saving grace is the relatively short running time of one hour and 30 minutes.
... View MoreThere are a few vaguely amusing scenes in this movies and the sex episodes are usually tasteful and inoffensive; but overall this picture looks like it was made up as it went along. Scripted it seems by someone whilst having a long lunch and written on the back of an envelope. And the actors equally look like they are winging it.Married couple with kids have foregone a sex life with each other to raise their children. To rekindle their love life, they make a private sex tape of themselves which inadvertently is copied onto given away ipads. The movie shows their efforts to recover the ipads and hence the sex tapes.All the characters in this movie come across as irritating and obnoxious especially the children. In fact the star of the film is an Alsatian dog.Disgusting that the movie makers try to glamorise the taking of cocaine as some how worthy of comedy. Along with the likes of spousal and child abuse there are certain subjects which ought to be off limits. For the awful attempt to portray drug taking as fun and nothing else I have deducted 3 points from my assessment and come to a vote of:2/10.
... View MoreThis story could be interesting and very promising, as is a "problem" that bothers many people today. Unfortunately, it's not. Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel are good actors and they are doing their best but, as it seems, it's not enough. The funny jokes are not so funny. You laugh, but not with your heart. The important issues about relationships and marriage and everyday life, are only a bad way to make "Sex tape" more serious. Last but not least, the second characters are boring - except of Jack's Black appearance in this movie. If you are expecting some answers, don't watch this film. If you want just to pass your time, then this is the perfect choice.
