*Two
intellectual professors go robbing banks and manipulating policemen with details
of a psychological experiment. The film is a mixture of thriller, drama and
horror.
*The
racially focused story is absorbing, smart and possibly original, winding
viewers on a memorable and twisty tale of ‘quite a lot’. While Mekhi Phifer stands supreme by
delivering a masterclass, everyone from the main cast is impeccable, creating a
world that feels realistic and relatable.
*Shot with
all conquering range, the cinematography is colourful and arresting. Editing
and pacing is near flawless and the simple soundtrack won’t be remembered but
is a well fitting, soothing accompaniment.
*Seriously,
go and watch this film now. Pay for it too, if funds allow, it’s not one for replay
value but it’s a good one to pass on.

*Attractive
post-40/menopause lesbian delves into escorting to live and learn, luckily having
one of the best experiences of prostitution possible. The film is an erotic
drama that focuses on personalities and conveying the mind states, activities
and dilemmas of women who are ‘living love’ and getting ‘out of date’.
*The well
written, sexy and almost inconsequential story is enjoyable but only if you
love these types of people or make yourself get into it. The monochrome cast is
exceptional minus the lead actress, Jewish Robin Weigert (born 7/7/69) who often seems shy and aware of the camera
crew.
*Competent
cinematography; the colour toning is bland and pale but shot framing and pacing
is artistically skilled. This is not an action movie; it is a cool drama in
which even the sex scenes are relaxing / snooze-worthy.
*Not quite
riveting, wilfully slow and steady in its pace and place as an arthouse drama for
lesbians. Worth a ‘steal’ for late nights with a small screen.
