I'm a big Jennifer Burton fan, and she's in it in a big way (as always), but after seeing the film and thinking about it the next day, I wondered why I sat through the whole ordeal. I saw the French-dubbed, unrated version of "I Like To Play Games", so maybe if I saw it in English, I would have tuned out much quicker.
Lisa Boyle (a nice looking lady, but not a world-beater) and Ken Steadman (complete with a cheesy 1995 haircut) play Suzanne and Michael. Both of them work at some agency. Michael is a guy who obviously played games of dare with Jeff Wise and Angela from Mike Sedan's "Mischievous", but his are all sexually charged. The whole movie is about seeing these two soap-opera rejects ruin their lives just out of boredom. They play ludicrous games of "tease" (well Suzanne does). While it's fun to see the conceited Kung Fu-loving Michael made a fool of over and over again (one scene has him running in the streets naked after she runs away from his pad, complete with a view of his jewels for the ladies), it gets tedious once they start having real "philosophical discussions" and then everything...well let's just say it steals everything from "Mischievous".
All I can say is that even in French-dubbed voices, I couldn't stand either of these two primadonnas. I would have preferred if they settled their petty "love feud" with a duel and two .357 Magnums and gave us more of Miss Burton. Still, I couldn't stay away; I had to see who won this "feud", find out if you "dare".

Now, this is how you make a soft-core sex movie! Mostly, these types of films fail because they have either too much tedious plot or too little erotic action. I Like to Play Games gets the balance spot on in my opinion. The story-line is very simple but it never out-stays its welcome. It essentially is used simply as a means of stringing along one erotic encounter after another. There are two things very good about this. One, there are lots of these scenes and little time wasted in between. And secondly this movie is a Lisa Boyle vehicle. She is a pretty stunningly sexy woman and is naked many, many times in this. She plays a mysterious, highly sexed femme fatale who plays dangerous games with a lucky victim. The sexual encounters are very varied in content. But the important thing – and it's hardly a given in this type of movie – they are very sexy. There are several great sequences but special mention has to be made for Lisa's leather strap outfit – seeing truly is believing.
This is surely something of a classic of its type. A 90's sexploitation movie with a great leading lady. A film that does exactly what you hope it will. Can't say fairer than that.

The video box looks like just another one of those "erotic" movies but this one actually has a plot, moderately interesting characters, and some humor. It's the story of a guy who gets involved with a woman at work who likes "games." Of course he thinks he's going to be in control, but she's a smart one who gets the best of him time after time. It does get a little too dramatic near the end but on the whole manages to be sexy, fairly entertaining, and not demeaning to women. Worth a second look. What "9 and 1/2 Weeks" should have been.
This is probably Lisa Boyle's best movie. She shines in the screen with many steamy sex scenes... all the positions, all the attitudes, all the scenarios. What else could you ask for? This is quality soft core porn. The cinematography is really good for a movie like this. Also, the acting isn't that bad but it's the least thing you should care about.
Lisa has sex with the same guy for almost all the scenes but it doesn't matters because it's obvious that there is chemistry between them. Well, WHO wouldn't like to have chemistry with Lisa?! The S&M and everything is great in this movie. I'm glad I bought it. If you are a huge Lisa fan, then you understand the greatness of the movie. If you are about to become a fan of hers, then you are going to be really pleased. Totally recommended.

I rented this movie after having seen it several years ago on TV. Lisa Boyle is one of the sexiest women I have ever watched. She plays out an erotic scene with both taste and passion. The scenes are photographed to their best effect and this movie qualifies as an erotic classic.
