    I found this movie surprisingly fun. It's not quite as graphic as you might think, very little nudity, and the acting is actually very good. The protagonist goes through some interesting phases, eventually coming out a wiser man for his experiences. The story is interesting, grabbing me, and the comedy is very well done, with great timing and delivery. The ending felt a little shoehorned, not quite what I would have expected, but the work as a whole was fantastic. Definitely would recommend it if you like any kind of darker comedy.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Cute movie for Baker fans
    Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    As a new fan of The Mentalist, I was intrigued to see other Simon Baker movies. This movie has an interesting premise but doesn't fully develop into a well-rounded plot. I blame the writer for that. The talent is there-- Mindy Cohn is excellent as is Julie Bowen (good to see her early stuff), Winona Ryder. However, Simon Baker steals the show with his rather tongue-in-cheek performance. I can see how it would be easy to over-play his character but Baker holds back and let's us see him slowly unravel. For being a "heart throb" so to speak, Baker is a talented actor and its a joy to see him perform. I suppose he could be considered the thinking woman's sex-symbol.

    Overall, I liked the movie. Its fun to watch on a rainy Saturday especially if you're a Baker fan!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculous but strangely entertaining
    Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    For someone who is a total prude when it comes to seeing graphic sex more or less presented to the public, I found this thing rather interesting. I bought it with some trepidation because I admire Simon Baker's acting and wanted to see what he would do with this but was fearful that I would be so disgusted I would never watch his performances again. That didn't happen. The plot is about as ridiculous as one could possibly be but somehow Baker pulled it off with just the right amount of cartoonish immaturity and eventually adult behavior to make this really dumb story enjoyable. Even that necrophiliac scene! That takes some trully skillful acting! The story itself, when one thinks about it, is not all that bad. I liked the underlying feminist message So overall the writing was admirable. The extra, where the writer/director explains how the film was made, talking over the entire show as it moves along, was interesting and informative. I didn't understand the part where he said Baker cried real tears when he read the last page of James Joyce's "Ulysses." Sounded like Baker has real-life literary/poetic sensitivities. Well, whatever. I checked that part of Ulysses on the Internet. Hadn't read it before. It's totally unreadable! But maybe not to others. So, bottom line, whether you are a total prude or for some reason enjoy what I would call upscale pornography, you will probably not regret buying this DVD.

    This was a funny surprise. I borrowed it from the library not knowing anything about it and after watching it we had to own it! The plot is a bit weird with a machine that spits out random information and guys you can't tell are either aliens, government Xmen, or somebodies idea of devine beings. Anyway that part is vague enough to ignore. Funny part is a guy with a list of past girlfriends and a list of guaranteed girlfriends. The rest is just plain silly fun!

    1.0 out of 5 stars overlong at 2 hours; flippant rather than funny
    Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2008
    Verified Purchase
    At 2 hours long, this film dragged and dragged. I was watching the clock thinking, I can't believe it's less than halfway through ... can't believe there's still 45 minutes to go ... can't believe another 25 minutes left.

    A man (Simon Baker) is sent a list of all the women he will have sex with in his life, while a woman (Winona Ryder) goes around putting men into comas. In the end, they meet.

    Along the way, Baker learns "lessons about life." Supposedly.

    Oh yeah, there's also a MATRIX parody somewhere in there, with a wise, bald black guy, with a deep baritone voice, lecturing to Baker as though he were Neo.

    HEATHERS writer Daniel Waters reteamed with HEATHERS star Winona Ryder to make this film. Like other reviewers, I loved HEATHERS (and most of Ryder's pre-2001 work). Maybe that's the problem.

    SEX AND DEATH 101 feels like Waters wanted to recreate his past success by writing (and now, also directing) a supposedly "dark comedy" starring Winona Ryder.

    Sounds like a "deal memo" film, i.e., some agent listed the "creative elements" in a memo -- Waters, Ryder, sex, black comedy, boffo! -- then gave it to a studio executive. This film must have looked good on paper.

    In the special features, Waters says he wanted to create "a serious film about sex," but it's formulaic. Worse, it's a mish-mash of conflicting formulas.

    Problems:

    * Film is too self-conscious. It's trying too hard to be a "black comedy," because it's aware that HEATHERS was a black comedy. It feels like the characters die in flippant ways, not because it was necessary for the story, but because it worked in HEATHERS. Yet this film is not darkly humorous. It's just flippant and shallow.

    * Despite its flippancy, this film also tries to be "deep." There's much voice-over by Baker, who informs us of his Deep Thoughts about love and sex and the meaning of life, etc. But his Deep Thoughts are as insightful and unique as the Deep Thoughts on Saturday Night Live. (But not funny. Not even unintentionally funny.)

    * Thus, SEX AND DEATH 101 doesn't know whether to be flippant and oh-so-hip, or deep and sincere, or funny, or what. It's all over the map -- and what is it with that MATRIX black guy?

    Ryder has a small role in this film; she's not on screen much. About 20 minutes out of 2 hours. Well, it's Baker's film.

    Ryder is good, but she hasn't been in a great film in nearly a decade. Not her fault.

    I had to watch this movie twice in order to get the full message of it. Although at times it could be seen as offensive by some females (I am one) altogether it wasn't that bad of a movie. It was good for the laughs - and seeing Simon Baker flash his butt! :)

    3.0 out of 5 stars Schauspieler Baker & Ryder top - Synchonisation und Bonusmaterial Flop
    Reviewed in Germany on December 25, 2009
    Verified Purchase
    Der Film ist in die Kategorie "leichte Popcorn"-Kost einzuordnen. Prima für einen gemütlichen DVD-Abend zum Entspannen. Die beiden Hauptdarsteller Simon Baker und Winona Ryder spielen gekonnt locker-flockig und glaubhaft ihre Rollen, sie scheinen ihnen auf den Leib geschrieben zu sein - eine Freude ihnen zuzusehen, eine absolut gelungene Besetzung. Das Skript schwächelt zum Ende hin etwas, aber die guten Darsteller (z.B. auch die Sekretärin von Baker ist super) trösten einen darüber hinweg und ingesamt gibt es durchwegs lustige Gags.

    Dennoch gibt es nur 3 Punkte für diese DVD-Ausgabe, statt 4 - why?
    Absoluter Flop ist die dt. Synchronstimme von Simon Baker. Als Sprecher wurde nämlich leider nicht die bekannte und für mich "richtige" dt. Baker-Stimme aus "The Guardian" oder "The Mentalist" eingesetzt (d.h. der Sprecher: Marcus Off), welche meiner Meinung nach perfekt mit dem Schauspieler harmoniert und sehr gut "die Seele" des englische Original rüberbringt, wenn man die Stimmelage etc. beim Sprechen miteinander vergleicht.

    Zu allem Übel wurde statt der "richtigen" Stimme ausgerechnet der Synchronsprecher Tobias Meister eingesetzt, was für mich extrem irritierend war, da er die markante dt. Stimme des Schauspielers Gary Sinise in CSI New York ist (für alle, die rätseln, zu wem diese bekannte Stimme bloß gehört ;-), mich hat das die ersten 10 min komplett wahnsinnig gemacht, weil ich sie nicht zuordnen konnte).
    Das Resultat war, dass ich ständig das Gesicht vom CSI NY Schauspieler überlappend mit Simon Baker in meinem Kopf hatte und mir dann den Film schlussendlich auf English angeschaut habe, da ich die "falsche anderweitig typisierte" dt. Stimme nicht ertragen habe.

    Das Bonusmaterial ist ebenfalls enttäuschend und lieblos - nur Interviews mit dem Regisseur und Nebendarstellern statt den beiden Hauptdarstellern und ein paar Überblicke über das Set... keine Hoppalas, rausgeschnittene Szenen oder sonstige nette Goodies, die es sicherlich beim Dreh einer Komödie gegeben hat.
