INCREDIBLY BORING!

I only watched it for Lee Pace, and, as usual, every time I watch a bad movie just to see Lee Pace, he's barely in it. Aside from a handful of roles, he really has had a crappy career to be so tall, handsome, and charismatic. I don't know if it's him, his agent, or what, but what a waste of his youth in all of these crappy, go-nowhere 2000s/2010s films! If only he had followed the Dave Bautista plan, he would have been starring in James Bond films and not unrecognizable in Guardians of the Galaxy. Ugh.I don't even care about talking about this nothingburger of a film, which is so boring and doesn't even deliver on its foggy premise. This is one of those films where I question who it was made for! It seems to be based around the sex lives of singles in NYC, but there's no sex in it, just weird editing or cutaways to show the aftermath. There's a tiny bit of wasted nudity, but that's it.The movie is boring, pointless, and rudderless, so much so that I think it was made to balance out a studio budget.Also, Lee's haircut SUCKS in this. This movie didn't titilate me or make me think--it only PMO!Why do I torment myself for this pretty man?

I love Jennifer Tilly

And I got to see Jennifer Tilly do a great role here in 30 Beats!

Ten people, ten little stories. Summer in New York City, people are hot and horny! Each character is linked to another in some way ... and each one is seeking sexual satisfaction.

That's the story, these ten people can only find satisfaction in one but that one doesn't necessarily find satisfaction in the person who finds satisfaction in that person. (Does that make sense?) So the unsatisfied partner seeks another to fulfill their need. Some of the scenes are quiet and tender, others a bit kinky, but at movies conclusion each one found their partner.

Alexis Lloyd has given us a peep into the private world one never, or seldom bothers to consider. I found the entire story captivating and entertaining.
