Review by ntsci

How to Make Love to a Woman

Amusing exploration of love and sex

This film can best be described as a romantic comedy. Its not the greatest film, but its quite funny in places. The plot begins when after having sex, Lauren sighs in disappointment. Andy becomes alarmed that if he isn't satisfying his girlfriend his days with her may be numbered. So begins a quest to find out what he's doing wrong. Sexperts he consults with includes his best friend, porn stars, his colleagues in the music business, lesbians, a medical doctor, his parents, his younger brother, and grand parents... but at no point does he just ask her. Meanwhile she also talks to her friends about the issue, but not to him. Some of the best advice actually comes from his grand mother. The secret of what she really wants is hinted a couple minutes before her initial sigh, but I'll leave that to you to catch the problem. Some of the most amusing scenes involve the use of split screen reminiscent of Annie Hall, where a couple is talking about each other, contradicting each other, and showing very different perspectives on sex. At a number of points they interact with each other across the splits screens.

Given the topic under discussion it was somewhat of a surprise to me that the film has no explicit sex scenes or even any frontal nudity. In the sex scenes that are depicted in the film, their bodies are almost entirely covered under the blankets. But because of the topic under discussion -- pursuit of her orgasm -- this is a film for adults only.

Its not a great film, but its a lot more amusing then the usual stupidity based humor so rampant in Hollywood today. A good film to watch with your significant other.
