Celebrity Sex Tape

I am usually not a fan at all of this type of movie and I wasn't expecting much from it. However, I try to be encouraging and to give any movie a chance regardless of the general consensus of opinions. I don't know how I managed to get through the whole thing- well maybe that's a lie as I have never considered not watching a whole movie a fair judgement- but I did, and I am still kicking myself at what a waste of time Celebrity Sex Tape turned out to be, it actually managed to be even worse than I expected. Poorly shot and edited and overly gaudy, it is an amateurish movie visually. Add a soundtrack that only seems to be there for the sake of it without any real purpose, dialogue so cheesy your teeth are aching from gritting your teeth so hard and a predictable at best and non-existent at worst story and you have even more reasons to hate Celebrity Sex Tape. But wait, I haven't finished yet. If there is a movie from any of the movies I've seen in the past quarter of a year that had more annoying characters than here, I've not seen them, with the story as thin as it was the pacing also contributes to the tedium that Celebrity Sex Tape and the acting is atrocious especially from the actor who looked, sounded and acted like an unfunny Chris Rock wannabe. And I completely agree about the Asian stereotyping and am glad that I wasn't alone in my thoughts on them, not that there was stereotyping but that the stereotyping was crude, unsubtle and offensive. All in all, a terrible movie that is painful to watch in all areas. 1/10 Bethany Cox

Celebrity Sex Tape has some nice moments, both of which I happened to catch as I'm usually doing something else while monitoring a movie on Netflix.

Seriously, there did seem to be some morales to the story, though the morals are pretty low if you care about that sort of thing. Or, actually, much of what was probably meant to be a huge draw suggested what I have heard about sex among teens ... I suppose this could generalize to college-age: it's like a handshake. Nobody takes it very seriously but boy if you are a t*t man, that's all there is. I didn't realize how endowed some women can be. (This was never my gift.) I guess those are the ones who go to Hollywood. There were plenty of bit parts in this movie if you didn't mind doing what was required of you.

As, as mentioned afore, I am not usually completely focused on a movie, unfortunately, I don't know what happened to one storyline but it seemed cute: the football player who doesn't seem to realize how much he likes his best friend/personal trainer. I don't think I have spoiled anything for anyone as that was introduced at the beginning, and it seemed promising for laughs. You'd just better suspend your moral compass for a while to enjoy this one. I think it may deserve a complete watch. Just be prepared for nonstop Girls Gone Wild.

The Asylum's Celebrity Sex Tape is the most offensive, politically incorrect and sexist film I've seen in some time. It's clear that the filmmakers set out to make an offensive film and they succeeded in spades. That said, it's not bad provided you watch it in small doses.

5 young men of various races (including a Chinese boy who has all his dialogue subtitled) somehow get a washed-up celebrity to bed one of them and they record it and put it online. It becomes a sensation and this causes some shady boss to threaten them with extortion. They have to earn $500,000 in a month or else he'll press charges. They create more sex tapes and the boss then tells them they will have to accept only "his" clients.

All but one of the boys partake in these videos, the exception is one boy who wishes to lose his virginity to his girlfriend and not some stranger.

CST is chock-full of female nudity. So much so it borders on overkill. The script is very weak, relying on profanity 50% of the time and it has that low-budget look that The Asylum movies always strive for. Regardless, it serves as an indictment for our celebrity driven society and how the famous can't live life without said fame once it's gone and will do anything to stay in the spotlight. There's even a wicked twist ending to boot.

Certainly not for everybody but if you're looking for raunchy fun, it's worth checking out at the home for The Asylum's product.

When I saw that Celebrity Sex Tape was released by The Asylum, and after reading the first few sentences of the plot synopsis, I became very curious to see just what was in store for me in this film.

A lot of reviews of this film that I've seen have offered critiques about the acting, saying that there is a lot of over acting in particular. For what I saw, I think the opposite is true. There is a lot of under acting in this film as, with a comedy film like this, over acting, for better or worse, is the feature, not the bug. As a result there are some unintentionally funny moments involving actors making some kind of exclamation but having no facial expression or body language to back it up, so it looks like something out of a satire. That said, I will say that there were parts of Ross' big monologue at the end which I found a bit funny as far as the performance goes and I think it captured the film's intent as an absurdist comedy the best.

This is not a very good film, of course, but before I got into explaining why, I do have to compliment the film on one aspect, at least. I could easily see a situation where a Hollywood production would produce a film with a similar premise and have similar marketing including the obnoxious promotional images, but when it comes to what the film actually shows, it would pull punches so it could get an R rating so it can be shown in as many theaters it can be. This film, could have easily done something like that, even if it wasn't rated, and yet it didn't and it doesn't pull punches and, coming from an American film production that isn't pornographic, I was genuinely surprised but also had to pay some respect to the film because of that.It doesn't make the film good, but it does, in fact, deliver what it promises and that has to count for something.

The film still isn't very good though. There are a lot of issues with it, especially when it comes to the style of humor it has. Maybe among high school boys back in 2012 it would have been funny, but its low bar shock humor has long since curdled like year old spoiled milk left out in the sun for a year. The really bad Asian portrayal, the fat jokes, the homophobic jokes, etc. are all products of a bygone age where it would have been considered acceptable and funny. I almost felt like there could have been some kind of commentary going on about sexism in nerd culture with the way the main characters obsess over losing their virginity before graduating college as if it's a necessity and how women are only portrayed as objects that can serve as a means to that end and that is where their value is derived from. But as I saw the film play this portrayal straight, where the moral ended up being the equivalent of "bros before hoes" in tone I realized that that was just what the film was - a nerd fantasy - if you will.

Celebrity Sex Tape is a shock comedy that is a rung trashier than the trashiest major production studios in Hollywood can put out. This film pulls out all the stops and takes no prisoners, for better or for worse, and while it does, indeed, flaunt its being unrated as its promotional images suggest, there is very little substance here that is really worth seeing unless you on't mind watching stupid, offensive-for-the-sake-of-it shock humor schlock. You aren't missing anything if you don't see this.

Most girls and a lot of 'men' will be to serious for this kind of movie. If you like a fun story, and lots of fake breasts, this is for you. I personnally don't like women with way to big fake breasts, but thankfully there were a lot of really beautifull breasts aswell. And some of the actors/actresses acted quit well and were likeable. Great fun.
