Spread

I stumbled on this, watched the little opening clip that seemed intriguing and fired it up, not expecting that I would watch more than 5 minutes. Turned out it was a really fun, very well written and well acted movie. All to often with streaming movies I end up pausing and looking to see "how much longer" but not this time.

The basic storyline (out of work young woman falls into a job and does ridiculously well) has been done over and over, but the movie manages to make it fresh and funny, with some unexpected twists and turns. Definitely some "laugh out loud" moments.

All of characters are spot on and the laughs don't feel forced. It does get raunchy in spots but even if you think you might be offended, I highly recommend firing it up... you may find yourself laughing.

I had no idea what to expect but I am really happy I found this for my girlfriends. It had a unique style and we laughed out loud (ok giggling too) last night. We even learned some new vocabulary and found some new ideas....

Terrific cast -I really loved the connection between Harvey and Elizabeth and there was even a moving scene with them that was surprising. I liked that it wasn't so much about 'sex' but that there was a storyline I could follow- light and fun for a girls night...it gave us quite a bit to talk about.

Definitely not suitable for the kids but certainly could be a conversation starter for a partners. Interesting take on a 'taboo' industry and it was great to see the influence a woman could have in that male dominated world.

A fun lighthearted romp into behind-the-scenes at an adult industry magazine publisher. Really lovely set design and fun colorful costumes. The story is cute following a journalist who almost experiences a late coming of age. The story really drew me in and made me forget about so much else going on in the world. A real breather from the every day grind. We need more of these movies. Great direction! There are some funny one liners. My favorite character was Nelson, he reminded me of Herve from "call my agent" which I thoroughly enjoyed. Make sure to watch Spread when the kids aren't around. 9/10.

Elizabeth Gillies is too talented to be here, in the beginning of the movie she got a few real laughs out of me, her delivery is on point as always but even she couldn't save this movie in the long run. On a real level she is the reason I watched this, I've recognized her talent ever since Victorious aired on nickelodeon, I always thought she was the best actor and singer on that show and was so excited to see her grow in both fields. Sadly most projects she is attached to don't tend to be all that good, this is no exception. This movie is degenerate for degeneracys sake, if this movie came out when I was in or fresh out of high school I probably would have fooled myself into liking it more, but I'm 27 and this movie is too Juvenile for how explicit it is. The characters are cartoonishly over the top, and the plot is predictable. Not to get too graphic but this is not an accurate portrayal of the porn industry, and I get its a comedy and dosen't have to be, but all the sex positive feminism in porn is vastly overstated. The industry is rampant with addiction, disease, abuse, and SA along with a ton of other problems that feminists as well as all decent people could easily identify as moral evils. This isn't the worst thing ive seen Liz in I can't say I enjoyed "Animal" more than this movie but I really hope she gets some better roles in the future.

I have watched I don't know how many movies, but this has to be on eof the worst.

I seriously have to ponder who comes up with this stuff, it's like they expect that because the film touches on to a sexually subject people will be want to watch it.

And they try that path straight up with the language and discussing porn early on.

The movie has no substance in where it is going to go, it is is saying watch me for shock value, the actors are not appealing or entertaining, and I would expect that this is to no surprise, considering the script they have to deal with.

It is an absymal movie and one not to watch.
