This is not nearly as repulsive film as some reviews would suggest. Actually it is quite interesting, and even funny, sad and beautiful. I think Vibenius has made some deep movies (I'm talking about "Thriller-En grym film" and this). And I'm pretty sure he hasn't got too much understanding, or even very many attempts to understand these films.
Everything is good, both the insides (atmosphere) and the outsides (technicalities) of the film. It's nicely shot, the music is very good, acting is good, people are interesting, overally it has a strong and whole atmosphere. The ideas/script are very good also.
It's funny that in these two movies Vibenius also shows, how differently you can, or COULD, do "hardcore porn": In "Thriller" those scenes were quite dull and ugly, but in here some scenes are nearer to "love making" than regular "porn".
And what comes to the directors "comments" towards psychology: Unfortunately all the "expert statements" that we hear in this movie are direct citations from the leading figures of psychology (in the last century). Vibenius just lets these authorities speak for themselves.
Some scenes are harder to understand than others. And very provocative. Maybe some scenes could have even been left out. I'm mainly talking bout the "candyman" scene, although nothing even happens there. But it's hard to condemn this man (I mean the film's main character), because it's hard to even know are the things shown here reality or just pictures flashing in his bored mind.
The main character seems to have quite a dream conditions in his workplace, it almost makes me jealous... Which brings to my mind: I think the girls in this film are refreshingly normal looking.
I would add to the title of this film ("Pornographic Thriller") one word: PSYCHOLOGICAL Pornographic Thriller. That would describe it quite well. It's a thriller that happens in the mind. However, this is not a film for everybody. At least not for the "faint-hearted". Whoever that may be.
