Avis à la une
I thoroughly enjoyed this simple comedy that was nicely written, wonderfully performed and directed, and very believable as a real-life experience. Sally Philips is very good in her role as a business owner of an all-male cleaning service. No, she is not fronting for a male escort service, although I am sure that came to the mind of several of the viewers initially. She is legit, as is her business. That is what makes the movie really funny. Had they tried the escort angle, it would not have worked as well in my opinion. Better to have a woman with a midlife crisis, than a madam with questionable motivations. A fun film.
This movie was great fun! It's so nice to watch normal-looking people in a story that actually feels honest. Some reviewers asked who would enjoy this movie. 50-something women who are tired of sappy romances with super skinny, overly made up women in five inch heels meeting men with perfect hair and eight packs, that's who.
Sally Phillips is a joy to watch and so is the rest of the cast.
I loved the part where one character asks another if they learned everything they knew about sex from porn. This movie is not for the prudish; it will probably put your knickers in a twist. But then again, maybe you'll end up loving it. I think I need my house cleaned.

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.
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'm still chuckling at all the user reviews by men misunderstanding this movie. The irony is palpable.
I know no one involved in making this film and came to it not knowing anything about it.
I thoroughly enjoyed it-it's a definite cut above the average female-centered film and for any woman over the age of 50, it went boldly into places not usually canvassed on our screens.
Is it a brilliant film, worthy of Oscars? No. Is it trying to be? No. It's a simple story told well, with middle aged women, complete with wrinkles, fat bottoms and hair that won't behave, working out how to ask for the pleasure they want.
It has been so rare for a movie like this to be made, but this new post-COVID wave (Leo Grande, How to Please a Woman) and now The Idea of You, show the world that older women are worthy of being cherished and pleasured.

- Crédits fousThe 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.
