It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Yes, just watch. You can turn the sound down for this one. None of the characters are much more than sketchily drawn, but it is GREAT fun to watch Jennifer Burton and Kelly Burns (aka Kehli O'Byrne) playing sex games. Burton is very appealing in a very slender sort of way, but Burns has the face of a slightly-tarnished angel and does things with what I think was a chocolate milkshake that I never would have thought of. I'd always hoped to see more of her in the movies, but after some B-level "erotic thrillers" she seems to have disappeared. I thought she had some talent aside from looking good in the nude
