Such a frustrating disappointment

Excellent but underrated film

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Based on the first episode, submission seems to want to bring porn to something like the old MTV series Undressed. So basically you have some sort of "comic" exchange between characters, and then there's some nudity, and then some more "comedy." The series is competently filmed and acted, but the writing fails to make any of it interesting. As for the porn, well, it's kind of unsexy. Like the dialogue, it feels like it's just there because they decided to make a porn comedy and thus they are contractually required to have some sex and have some banter. For what it's worth the creator of this series writes and directs hardcore porn and in that field she's won a number of awards.

What can I say about Showtime Season 1 of SUBMISSION. I voted a 10 out of 10 , cause it deserves it . The story line and and cast are outstanding. The writing was excellent Jacky St.James, did a wonderful job with the show. All the other people that were involved in it. The cast is fantastic. My favorite character is Elliott,being played by Justin Berti he draws you into the world of BDSM in the first scene of Episode 1. He had me hooked. The other actors have also done a wonderful job with there characters. The world of BDSM, can be intimidating. But SUBMISSION shows you a softer side. Elliott (Justin Berti) Can tie me up anytime. Submission also shows you that you can be kinky and wild , without crying of being in pain. Please bring back for another Season , I cant get enough of Elliott ( Justin Berti).

My favorite part of Submission was the character played by Justin Berti, Elliot. I thought the execution of this character is exactly what women wanted when they went to see Fifty Shades of Grey. I was one of the many women that were left wanting more out of the Christian Grey character but Elliot has completely filled that void. His voice is perfection, his demeanor and overall persona is just so intriguing and delicious to watch. The show pushes it in many ways but it's not conventional and that's what the women who are curious about that subject want to see. I want to see more of Elliot and I'm hoping they don't keep us waiting for too long....I am waiting for Season 2!

I love the movie. it seems that the reason behind the plot is that she wanted to create a better version compared to 50 shades of Grey.The series co-creator, Jacky St. James, mentioned that she was unhappy with the way BDSM was portrayed in Fifty Shades of Grey, which she considers "passed off an abusive relationship as an honest interpretation of the BDSM lifestyle". She hoped to create a more nuanced view of the BDSM world with the series. The lead actress Ashlynn Yennie also echoed the creator's sentiment saying, "Fifty Shades of Grey was not a correct portrayal of the type of sex that people practice. It made it seem like it was for people that were messed up or dark and it's not at all." She hoped that the show "can shatter that glass ceiling of false belief and show the world what it truly means to trust, communicate, and finally feel free to talk about what you want and don't want sexually in a consensual and healthy way." Well she got it. I agree it is better then 50 shades of Grey. wished there were more episodes though.
