This was the first of the videos that started a trend of sex education videos in the early 1990s . I guess the idea behind it was for liberated women to go into a high street store and buy it without any type of guilt or inhibition , but no doubt the main buyer market was teenage boys and dirty old men
THE LOVERS GUIDE is groundbreaking in the fact that it publicised that the couples involved were real life partners but this is slightly dishonest , yes the main couple featured Wendy and her husband were indeed a real life couple who'd been married several years but there was some public controversy that at least one of the couples Kathryn ( The gorgeous brunette ) and Marino ( The well buffed geezer with a ponytail ) had never met one another until they appeared on set where they had unprotected sex for the camera . For a video that self righteously dedicates segments to safe sex it is rather hypocritical
Seeing as it's for education purposes and not pornography as such there's limits as to what can be shown but as a sex education video it's not uninformative though I doubt if you'll be gasping " I never knew that "
As a footnote the main couple featured became something of sexual problem agony aunts in the British press - Until it was revealed that Wendy's husband had a serious heart condition which put a stop to sex . I almost felt sorry for this couple who confessed that they used to make love as often as ten times a day but now couldn't make love once a day because it was too dangerous . My small amount of sympathy soon vanished when shortly afterwards the couple split up and raced off to the gutter press in order to dish the dirt on one another to the highest bidder .
怎么都在说疯狂的石头？这明明就是学的《玩命记忆》。同样是“密室剧本杀”影片，跟隔壁《扬名立万》的命运简直天壤之别，虽然两者的推理反转都比较尬，但还是能看到国产导演叙事能力在慢慢进步。
作为处女作还算及格，另外为什么很多人都说这电影是低配版「疯狂的石头」，就因为都是非线性叙事吗？除此之外，俩电影在拍摄逻辑上压根八竿子打不着……
故事很完整，悬疑部分也可以。只是从我知道张颂文和受害的女生不认识之后，情绪突然就掉下来了，后来好一会儿才又被吸引住。
3星半，7分，对大众影迷是个小惊喜
预期以上，节奏感很好。结尾感觉可以更有意思一点。
挺不错的低成本悬疑片，故事情节一环套一环最终形成闭环，人物描写已经拍摄手法都还不错，唯独文戏方面太弱了导致有些地方有些突兀，有些地方出现bug，但值得一看
7分。剧本杀，一幕幕递进，揭开迷雾，很多反转，有惊喜也有遗憾，有出人意料之处（比如张颂文不是尤先生），也有刻意为之（比如认亲），但是每次重复剧情稍显拖沓，可怜之人必有可恨之处，好人难做。
❹这个破案的过程难道不值得再一部片子吗。
虽然是没花钱看的，但电影确实没有六十分，说是新人导演，看来还需要多锻炼，都是不错的演员，片子还是不推荐，窦骁从山楂树到现在这么多年了，演技还是没啥进步！除了最后那段，其他时间都是恍恍惚惚的，不知道在干嘛？！片子虽然情节一直在反转，但是节奏偏慢，看的有点困，无聊的时候只能喝水…还有看表…结局确实没想到…但是感觉也没娱乐到我…笑点基本我都没感觉…节奏有点像话剧…
为了追求所谓喜剧效果简直成了个演着小品的犯罪片，但凡严肃一些认真按个剧本杀故事去拍去表演我都会高看你，真的。
学到了一些悬疑、惊悚的视听设计，但这故事吧，真没必要硬玩这些峰回路转的东西，内容撑不起技巧，于是乎就变成了卖弄奇技淫巧的大盆菜。
但为什么只有女主死了？
剧作模仿痕迹较重，人物塑造有些敷衍，镜头语言合格，演员没啥问题，6.5。
单舞台电影，本来很喜欢这类，考验剧本和演技，但这几个演员表演还是不太像在正剧，总有喜剧效果。加上国产片又不能黑色结局，感觉很一般。PS.窦骁最后有点像史蒂文元。
来客们身份不明，善恶难辨。有些人是扮猪吃老虎、有些人是为了生活做了违背道德的事、有些人拿着“狼”牌却做着善事，每个角色细节拿捏都非常到位，人性也在电影里展现的淋漓尽致。
我觉得挺好，黑色幽默，悬疑，犯罪，感动都有了，过程和叙事方法很有点罗生门的味道。结局好人有好报虽然落俗套，但皆大欢喜。
2.0 / 几乎每一帧都看出了“我想与众不同我想技惊四座”的野心，就是真的很无趣。里面的黑色幽默也很无趣。一些青年导演真的不必“为了做点什么而做点什么”。
洋葱一样层层剥皮抽丝剥茧，最后真相大白，过瘾
密室剧本杀，不断闪回反转，但设计感还是太重了些，看到后面会有为反转而反转的刻意感。对于小场景来说人物有点多了
