This was the first of the videos that started a trend of sex education videos in the early 1990s . I guess the idea behind it was for liberated women to go into a high street store and buy it without any type of guilt or inhibition , but no doubt the main buyer market was teenage boys and dirty old men
THE LOVERS GUIDE is groundbreaking in the fact that it publicised that the couples involved were real life partners but this is slightly dishonest , yes the main couple featured Wendy and her husband were indeed a real life couple who'd been married several years but there was some public controversy that at least one of the couples Kathryn ( The gorgeous brunette ) and Marino ( The well buffed geezer with a ponytail ) had never met one another until they appeared on set where they had unprotected sex for the camera . For a video that self righteously dedicates segments to safe sex it is rather hypocritical
Seeing as it's for education purposes and not pornography as such there's limits as to what can be shown but as a sex education video it's not uninformative though I doubt if you'll be gasping " I never knew that "
As a footnote the main couple featured became something of sexual problem agony aunts in the British press - Until it was revealed that Wendy's husband had a serious heart condition which put a stop to sex . I almost felt sorry for this couple who confessed that they used to make love as often as ten times a day but now couldn't make love once a day because it was too dangerous . My small amount of sympathy soon vanished when shortly afterwards the couple split up and raced off to the gutter press in order to dish the dirt on one another to the highest bidder .
凯奇的这部演自己的电影跟尚格云顿演自己的《尚格云顿》可是说正好截然相反。不谈论套路化的部分设置，老尚在整部电影里面都是颓废落寞带着比利时特有的忧郁，在电影不断的进行中消解作为动作片巨星的人设，自我嘲讽，用臆想与现实的强烈对比反差来突出自己只是个凡人。而凯奇这个同样落寞的自己，电影里突出的是他对电影的热爱对演员职业的热情，哈维这个角色就强烈的催化剂，让凯奇内心的激情喷涌而出。凯奇与哈维飙戏跳崖的疯狂宛如赫尔佐格排《陆上行舟》般，这种激情是电影人保证自己职业长久发展的良药，这部电影可以说宣告了凯奇依旧拥有着再造自己演员生涯的野心，未来凯奇一定会重新贡献出优秀的电影。
是枝裕和、宋康昊、IU、裴斗娜，没有人能拒绝这么一个阵容的电影，但这部电影观感很奇怪。它从剧本层面看是好的，演员的表演也是好的，可是呈现出来东西就是没达到本该有的效果。摩天轮和关灯说感谢这两场戏才有了一些是枝裕和以往的“力度”，其他部分则绵软无力。
为人父母的温暖亲情，延续了是枝裕和一贯的风格，可惜不进则退。
希望此片后，凯奇顺利把债还完了，在有生之年，再让我们看到叫好叫座的作品！
大概凯奇演烂片太多了，所以稍微有个能看的就咋咋呼呼的。有些小聪明和癫狂的桥段，整体一般。凯奇要翻身还得继续努力，接点别这么胡闹的剧本。
是枝裕和失手了，剧本太差，硬造温情，引人不适。
其实还可以，虽然内核还是如《小偷家族》一样，但是也能看出是枝裕和想在一些形式上做突破。只可惜处理得太过理想化，不够《小偷家族》那么绵里藏针。另外这次宋康昊的表演没我想象的那么出彩，这奖拿的有点水啊
是枝裕和擅长的题材，但拍的一点感觉都没有。情节演进不怎么合理，让人真的无法代入和共情。
五个寂寞的灵魂，就像五条直线在某一个点相交又相离。
伏笔、线索的处理也极端简单。
是枝裕和似乎对无家的漂泊之人很有兴趣，拍了好几部类似题材的影片。不过，他似乎也过了巅峰期，拍这样的故事远不如《步履不停》那般顺手。本片故事太过丰满，完全不适于是枝裕和的风格，又是杀人，又是警察追踪，与其慢悠悠的手法完全不合拍。去掉警察这条线，以及黑社会那条线，专注于掮客寻下家，也许更好。故事中的人皆很善良，连买卖婴儿者皆具爱心。如人性皆如此，怎会有如此纷乱与黑暗的现实？
虽是充满狂气的自恋之作，但难掩过气的失落。（2022-07-10）
是枝裕和过于天真和温柔，试图延续《小偷家族》的童话：在不完美的背德者之中寻找人性的真善美，用没有血缘关系边缘人相互取暖的余烬温暖观众。这一次，掮客、妓女、杀人犯和孤儿组成的小家庭，美则美矣，但着实无法洗刷浪漫化苦难的嫌疑，特别是结尾，每个角色都做出完美正义地抉择，圆满却难以服众。“谢谢你降生于这个世界”的宣言，不是宽慰，更是让作者留下了他对性别政治和堕胎议题微妙的态度。IU很美，摩天轮戏份可能是年度最浪漫场景之一。
抛开《小偷家族》的框架，没太多是枝裕和的影子。回头想想让冯小刚来拍也不错，葛优演大叔，舒淇演女主，任素汐演女警察....
我想都有吧。
不忍心说不好，但全片又像为了这份“不忍心”而在努力一样，然而该怎么批评“不够残忍”呢？现实都已经这样了
而我看得些许无聊……
当然部分情节也是可圈可点的，比如洗车、摩天轮、关灯独白等等。
【1.5】轻而易举地拍一部陈词滥调出来，很难不怀疑是枝裕和是为了公款旅游。暂时不想认为是他如今水平仅限于此。
但如果你是凯奇的影迷，带入到凯奇本身的经历来观看，你能收获的快乐和感动，绝对不会比一部8分以上的电影要少。
