I Like to Play Games Too

I Like To Play Games Too is another offering from the Eros label, part of the Playboy empire. Although this film aspires to be a sequel to the original ILTPG, the film is set in an advertising agency and the leading character is called Suzanne, this film is an entirely different animal.

Suzanne (Maria Ford) with her assistant Tracy (Stephanee LaFleur) runs her own successful ad agency. As part of her business dealings, she also likes to play sex games with her male clients, always beating them at their own game and dumping them when she wants. However, her latest client Dominick (Bobby Johnston) is a whole different kettle of fish, always managing to stay one jump ahead. Suzanne is having none of it and the stakes are raised but as usual in films of this type, there is a twist in the tale and we find out how Dominick plays the game.

This should have been my type of film. There is a plot, nudity and varying sex action but the continually roving camera was a distraction that I could have done without. How hard can it be to film a couple simulating sex? There was also the laboured dialogue delivery and the general impression that the actors were acting for the camera rather than being real characters with the camera as the invisible voyeur. The only saving grace was Stephanee LaFleur who made a decent try at being the concerned assistant. There was nudity aplenty but this did not, in my opinion compensate for the shortcomings. 2 stars.

This movie was pretty good, considering the genre (Erotic thriller). There wasn't much plot but certainly there was a lot of bump-n-grindin' (if ya know what i mean). This movie was just as good as the original with a very sexy Maria Ford.

There's nobody to root for, or even care about, in Ed Holzman's would-be erotic thriller. Dominick (Bobby Johnston) runs a "private social club" that's really a front for an international prostitution and blackmail operation. Suzanne (Maria Ford) owns a clientless ad agency; a "friend," Nick (Scott Carson) suggests Dominick as a potential client. Dominick and Suzanne proceed to do their best to outwit each other in a series of sexual games.

With both of the principals more or less equally amoral, the only possible fun in this movie is watching them go at each other. But Holzman's leisurely pacing throughout, and characters that never go beyond skin deep, spoil the fun. Dawson is wasted as Dominick's personal assistant, Mona. The one character who has a shred of decency is Suzanne's assistant, Tracy (Stephanee LaFleur), but she's clueless and powerless--not much more than a spectator.

Holzman has done better work than this. The sex scenes even start to get tedious halfway through the film.

Mediocre "erotic" thriller. Mildly amusing concept, with a few twist and turns. Stephanie LeFleur is probably the best this movie has to offer in the way of attractive women. The plot kinda meanders on between soft-porn scenes, but there's more than you usually find.

The cast of this excellent soft core epic includes some real heavyweight actors such as Maria Ford, Kim Dawon, and Bobby Johnston.

Ms. Ford is just stunning and if something like an academy award was offered in this genre, she should get one. Unfortunately, Stephanee LaFleur, one of my favorites, has just a small part, almost a cameo appearance. Oh, to be a member of one of the "gentlemens' Clubs" depicted.
