Hideous visual effects, awful 2000s digital cinematography, really funny Denise Richards (as an anthropologist) voiceover. It’s wild and amusing at first, but is almost entirely exploitative and redundant.
Darryl Hannah also offers her client soy milk.
This truly is something else, though. Lol. Imagine all the people who were tricked into watching what is mostly a documentary (?).
tema importante e delicato affrontato in modo imbarazzante e con scene da serie tv crime a basso budget boh
Il tema è ovviamente molto interessante, ma visivamente è inguardabile. Anche il fatto di essere mezzo documentario e mezzo fiction è un'idea piuttosto bislacca.
This movie fully tricked me. For every 10 minutes of unexpected documentary, there is 1 minute of Denise Richards fictionalized drama. WHy?! Why not make it as a documentary and advertise it as such?! Instead of telling me it's a Denise film then trying to make me learn! THIS ISN'T WHAT I CAME HERE FOR.
Far from being great, but more interesting than most other people on here have given it credit for. But I'm interested in a) fiction/nonfiction hybrids, b) sex workers telling their stories, and c) early 2000s aesthetics, so I'm probably more charitable than most.
Doesn't help that the fiction side of the film has no real purpose or drive to it. Also doesn't help that the documentary side tries to cover too much ground and over-edits the testimonials. Also also: if a man lets you know he exploits women by hiding their passports and forcing them into prostitution, why would you have him do your cutesy "blow a kiss during the credits" gimmick?
What an oddball film. It's a documentary short intercut with a dramatic short to make a not-very-long film.
I actually have no idea if the doco part is real or staged but it works far better than the part with the paid Hollywood actors.
It's a mediocre Hollywood film, a decent foreign film with an American cast or a bold student film. Weird how quality changes based on the perception of production.
