5.0 out of 5 stars my favorite movie about sex, April 17, 2009

This review is from: Annie Sprinkle's Amazing World of Orgasm (DVD)

One wouldn't expect any less from the redoubtable Ms. Sprinkle, of course... but I loved this movie for giving the broadest, least judgmental overview of orgasm imaginable.

As noted by a previous reviewer, the film is definitely not a how-to. Which is just as well, because most of the how-tos I've seen have taken an extremely prescriptive approach to orgasm -- they tell you how to have one kind of orgasm, their kind. This film, instead, portrays all kinds of orgasms, big and little, short and long, peak and valley, and invites you to think about all your sexual feelings as potentially orgasmic.

Not for sexual beginners, not for the closed-minded... but for those who want their minds and genitals opened to the infinite possibilities of experience, this is my favorite sex movie ever.

2.0 out of 5 stars A Toys for Tarts review, March 12, 2009

This review is from: Annie Sprinkle's Amazing World of Orgasm (DVD)

I'm not sure what I expected from this DVD, but what I got definitely was not it. It's been touted as a "must see" for those wishing to learn more about orgasm. I disagree. Totally. I suppose if I could figure out the target audience, I might be able to pen a more favorable review. I don't think those who are having trouble reaching orgasm will derive much benefit from the information shared. In fact, it would intimidate many, especially more vanilla folk (who often seem to be most in need of accurate, practical information). And I don't think those who simply seek more and/or better orgasms will benefit either.

The novice is not going to find reassurance or practical tips beyond the "go with the flow" message. The advice is not bad, mind you; it's just recycled. The expert is just going to shrug and say, "Well, duh."

The best I can say about this 2004 film is that it does well in capturing the diversity of approach to orgasm. To that end, it succeeds almost too well because the diversity of its cast is more intriguing than the advice provided.

There were a couple too-brief segments which attempted to define various types of orgasm that I found interesting, but on the whole, I thought the production was rather disorganized. Add to that the distracting, new-agey graphics, and the whole 53-minute thing was difficult to endure. It's not going to win any awards for editing, direction, sound, or special effects. That's for damned sure.

Orgasm is undoubtedly a multi-faceted beast. It can be physical, emotional, or spiritual (or any combination of the three), and I don't think any form of orgasm instruction would be complete without addressing those aspects. However, this film focuses too heavily on the spiritual, almost to the exclusion of the actual mechanics of orgasm, to be of any instructional value.

peace & passion,
