The Little Death (2014)
Rather boring.
I wanted to like The Little Death. I ended up disappointed.
The "edgy" material loses any power after a short while and it becomes quite apparent that the film loses most of its comedic and entertainment value with it.
The film is shown through several couples, which is interesting at first. But, once you get past their "fetishes" or problems, the intrigue is gone. The film feels very bland during the middle, even though crazy things may be happing. This makes you just kind of ready for the film to be over
The writing and plot(s) rely on over-the-top people and scenarios that feels heavily forced and kills the humor.
The comedy was few and far between, and the story got boring. (I never cared about any of them)
I do want to acknowledge, though, that The Little Death may be better suited for different audiences than myself. It may be because I'm a male; It may be because I'm an American (or at least not Australian); or it may be because I don't get awkward or giggly just because the topic of sex is brought up, but this film just didn't do it for me.
