Film to skip: “Sex Addicts Have All the Fun”
We’re not just going to tell you about things worth seeing. Sometimes we’ll pass along warnings that there are some things you may not want to waste your time watching.
The movie, I Am a Sex Addict, from director/writer/star Caveh Zahedi, sounds like one of those we’re going to stick in the “didn’t see it” file.
You can read the whole review at the link below if you want more details, but here are two quotes from it that pretty much say it all:
Most of Zahedi’s film plays out like this: Zahedi gets a girlfriend, confides in her that he wants a blowjob from a prostitute, goes and does it, problems ensue. Repeat.
and…
Turns out that Zahedi’s a selfish prick. By the time we get to the self-involved Zahedi’s teary catharsis, I didn’t sympathize with him so much as I felt like an egocentric asshole had cornered me at a party and had been whining at me for an hour and a half.
Watch this one if you want. But then don’t say we didn’t warn you.
