Watch Speaking of Sex For Free

Pretty Good

Don't listen to the negative reviews

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

This film really left me wondering for quite a while after I saw it... First (as trying to be as self critic as I can), I thought something was wrong with me... Maybe I've missed something... Some irony... Some parody... Some...whatever...But... NO!!! Unfortunately not!Reading all other User Reviews, I can only say that comedy taste of Americans and us, Europeans is obviously sooo different... (Which is totally OK)...But, from my point of view, I must say I am shocked with what a crap they spent their money on!?!? I mean, there are so many great stories that never find a producer or studio, so many talented directors, young comedy actors...And, instead of trying to figure some of them out, since they are already throwing away a bag of money, they do the worst possible thing...Choose ridiculous scenario (that has NOTHING in it), they assemble a Golden Cast of actors and then they produce Catastrophe...I mean, what was that James Spader story in this movie??? Him trying to act as Jim Carrey on Acid (why the hell didn't they take Carrey for the role then, and not the usually great James Spader, who looks ridiculous in this "slap-stick of 22nd century" comedy)...Right, as said in many reviews before, Bill Murray and Mrs.O'Hara try to save the film, but not enough space and room and good lines and inventive directing and nothing...Everything is so flat!!! Just dig out the lightning in the movie... Those flat faces, no shadow anywhere (not even on those in depth walls – In just one shot I spotted some Venetian blinds shadow on the wall behind the actors ----- oh, what a try!!!)...Only decent looking scenes (in matter of Production design, light and direction) are the scenes taking place in this "statement taking room" where we have entire cast in the scene....Don't know... Maybe those years I've spent on Movie and Theater Academy made a movie geek out of me, and maybe I am watching too many movies and maybe I am watching them too "technically", but, again, I really tried hard to find at least one simple tiny good detail about this film... And I found none...I even found NO reason to even try to get interested in making the one --- and I really wonder how on earth did those producers succeed in lining up all those people --- from director to the last actor --- to appear in such a nothing!!!!No offence, please!!! Just my point of view!!!

Possible ***SPOILER*** is in the second paragraph."Speaking of Sex" with Bill Murray, James Spader, Catherine O'Hara and the rest of this ensemble cast is hysterical in this classic "lovers misunderstanding" comedy. The first few minutes may be slow, but hang in there, it's worth it. By the time Catherine O'Hara and Bill Murray arrive, the movie is in full swing.I'll try not to give this away. But the helpful and somewhat duplicitous brother Larry, played by Paul Schulze (Sopranos, "24" etc.), is excellent coming up with some creative money making ideas to capitalize on the situation."Speaking of Sex" is a hoot. I don't think anyone will be offended (if the title didn't interest you, you wouldn't consider watching it). A lot of the humor tries to beat around the bush, so to speak. Every aspect of "Speaking of Sex" was extremely well done. Excellent acting, direction, screen play etc. Thank you to all! It was a true joy to watch.

This was the closing night of the 37th Chicago International Film Festival. The audience laughed all the way through. Get a van and bring everyone you know!I loved how this movie poked holes in our prudishness. Even after 6 years of Bill n' Monica many of us are still not able to do what the title suggests.It's funny funny funny. Not for kids, but funny.McNaughton should get a Oscar Nom for keeping this movie funny and moving all the time!

I saw this film tonight at the Chicago film festival's closing night. This film is one of the unfunniest and unoriginal I've seen in a while. It even stole a gag from Austin Powers(another unfunny movie). The film stars James Spader, Melora Walters, Jay Mohr, Bill Murray and Lara Flyn Boyle. The plot was so contrived and pointless I can't even remember what it was about. The plot is there to basically fuel all the unffuny sex jokes and gags. I hated it and so will you. it is Boring with a Capital B. Johnson. Major. Out.
