Scenes of a Sexual Nature - Dir: Ed Blum


With a title like that, you can expect one of two things - that it's going to be a bonkathon or is hiding a carnival of sins. Unfortunately here it is the latter. As the opening credit rolls you see a plethora of names you recognise and sort of recognise which looks promising. The actual movie turns out to be a series of sort of interlinked scenes about love and sex. It's a solid basis for an interesting movie in theory. Unfortunately the script is pretty wooden, as are some of the performances, and even Ewan Mcgregor doesn't put any real effort in. Catherine Tate is in too but you feel she is about one notch away from being an acceptable actress. This is a JM THUMBS DOWN.
