Paying for It

Shy cartoonist Chester and his beautiful, minor celeb girlfriend Sonny are living together, having sexual difficulties, and decide to have an open relationship. She brings home a series of terrible boyfriends (one of them even being repeatedly violent), while he visits prostitutes.

All the way through this film I just wanted to shout at the two protagonists "What the f@$? Are you thinking!?" Maybe because I'm older and apparently much happier than the characters, it was difficult to watch people being so dumb and self-destructive, when there was an obvious way out for both of them - being in a normal, loving relationship with each other.

It's supposed to be based on a true story, so I feel sorry for the writers.

The film's ending seems unlikely (but I guess true as well), and as long as they're all happy now who am I to judge.

Definitely a slice of life and quite eye-opening, and isn't that why we watch the movies.

Where to begin. This movie is an abomination from start to finish.

I hate characters that are so weak and pathetic that they cannot stand up for themselves. It seems like this movie was written by a poly person that thinks it is cute for multiple people to be in a relationship together. There is nothing natural or healthy about open relationships. I'm not really sure where this movie was coming from or where it was going. Just a hodge podge of nerdrodic scenes and a bastardsization or the 90s. 10 out of 10 would never recommend. I feel terrible for the actors and everyone involved in this huge waste of time.
