With a little bit of prostitution you can be very successful in Perth, Australia. A middle-aged woman (pretty good: Sally PHILLIPS) loses her job and turns an almost bankrupt transport company into a cleaning service with half-naked guys (also with character depth: Alexander ENGLAND). Gina (that's the name of the good one) finally wants to know. The ladies of Perth are thrilled and of course still want a little more...
With female pimping for women's self-empowerment, peppered with increased sex positivity! It's a lot at once, but it works because of the fantastic leading actress. You simply take away from Sally PHILLIPS the role of a woman at the turning point of her life. She goes from being a swimmer in life to setting the pace, and that is definitely an example for many people around the world. And the beautiful images of Perth, an Australian city that hasn't been seen so often in the cinema, are also very enjoyable. The film fits in well with the times and only leaves a small unpleasant aftertaste. Harmless and joyful sex doesn't just sell well in Australia.

I like to watch Aussie movies as an Aussie and did not know this was one when chosen on Apple TV, it was not predictable, had many funny moments and did not make me cringe with an over Aussie emphasis like some Aussie films can do. Some amazing female characters and a number of themes running through the movie. Enjoyed it, recommended.
Sally Phillips is an excellent lead for a very attractive cast. Deft direction and well drawn characters make the most of a solid, albeit slightly predictable script. Enjoyable with many moments of unexpected pathos. A few plot holes but nothing that takes you out of the movie. Great scenery of the area around Perth. Nice to see a well made film with crowd appeal like this come out of Australia. Female writer/director. The denouement is a bit contrived unfortunately for my taste, hence my rating. Still, both my wife and I had a good time watching it. Good date night movie for couples of a certain age. Demonstrates what a talented filmmaker can do with a fairly simple but compelling idea and a group of journeymen actors.
Ignore the low scores; presumably they were left by teenagers or men who are yet to evolve. This touches on themes common for women beyond their 20s (and possibly 30s). Funny, heartwarming, light and shade. And challenges misconceptions.
It works perfectly as an Australian film; done perfectly with tongue in cheek humour, but not cringey. Believable, and I was cheering for the main character. And I started to wonder if there's an opportunity in the market for this service, and considered if they'd franchise the brand. Ha ha
I don't usually review a film, but given the low score I had to wade in and join the chorus - get a group of women together and enjoy it!
Winner!!

Finally watched this film, I thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely watch it again!
Real talk though, it is a film for women and for men who aren't scared of women being sexual beings. It has funny bits, serious bits and is sexualised in a fun way but is mostly a comedy in my eyes.
Seems like all the majority of bad reviews are from men or prudes. I literally made an IMBD account just to write this because people are butt hurt about "non-standard-pretty" women having a sexual life.
It's simple, if you don't like hearing or seeing things about women's sexuality then this movie is NOT for you.
It is shame that these fictional characters represent so many truths in a woman's life and the movie is being reviewed badly by those who can't handle a woman having a life outside of marriage or motherhood.

- Crazy CreditsThe end title sequence begins as a computer word search of "How to ..." and then "How to please a woman." The auto-complete below the search bar suggests things such as: "How to have an orgasm, How to remove limescale, How to bake a croissant, How to reverse park a truck, How to start your own business, How to feel confident in bathers." The rest of the end titles are normal.
