Body Shots (1999)

To me, this movie is perfection.

Strong and Moving!

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

DVD synopsis: When eight twenty-somethings, four guys and four girls, set off on a wild ride through L.A.'s nightlife, they get more-and-less-than they bargained for. Fuelled by the need for love and intimacy, the evening takes them on a crash course through the turbulent world of sex and dating.OK, let's face it. Most young guys out there who fancy Tara Reid like there is no tomorrow, will watch this film just for that one reason and too see her have sex. Now please, let's get serious. Body Shots boast a very good cast, excellent directing and quite an incredible storyline. It really shows the conflict that could and can happen with one-night stands, and the battle of the genders. It is always someone's word against the other. But who would "you" believe? The film is funny in some places, with some naughty and raunchy attitude from some of the characters. And there are some great one-liners. But what amazed me most is how well Tara Reid pulls off her character's emotions. She really give it great credit and you really sympathise with her. But you are still left with the unending question: What is the truth? What really happened?

After watching this movie twice in 1999, first in a movie theater where the board of censors have butchered most of the graphic scenes and second on a DVD where I've seen the complete uncut version, I was wondering if this movie is really suitable for public exhibition. I consider this movie as a soft core porn movie that will guarantee an X rating if this will be shown on conservative countries. The plot, the story line, the conflict are all tackling nothing but S-E-X. All of the characters in the movie are being portrayed as sex starved and wild party animals who wants nothing but fun. Oh! yeah! I admit I've got aroused by Tara Reid's voluptuous body but during her violent rape scene with Jerry O'Connell, I've totally lost my sympathies to her. She's crying to death that she was raped but how come she seduced Jerry when both of them were intoxicated? It's very clear that it was a consensual sex that transpired. I've almost puked in a scene when Ron Livingston sucked the breast of a 40 year old woman in public, GROSS!!!! Brad Rowe & Emily Temchen's quickie in the parking lot made me sick. Emily Procter's character was nothing short of a bust and Amanda Peet & Sean Patrick Flannery's characters were put into waste. Only perverts and masochists will enjoy this movie. This movie should be shown on Playboy Channel or any Adult channels on cable TV.

Before she lost weight and became a typical blond hair / blue eyes actress, Tara Reid was the girl next door with a face to die for. Body Shots is still her only good acting in her young career. Having to do with sex, sex, and more sex, the movie does not fall into the same genre as an American Pie movie. Body Shots is five times a better movie and a better story. Tara Reid is the eye candy of the movie as well as its strongest act. She is the climax of the movie as well as the thread hat holds the story together and the struggle between the characters that progress throughout the movie. Tara is beautiful as well as funny and at times scary when the role requires it. A terrific story and a great supporting cast.

I anticipated a cliche chick flick but ended up in awe of how brilliantly funny and sexy this movie was. part of it was probably its brutal honesty about sex and the POVS of the two genders and their difference of opinions..i luved the Whitney/Trent pairing..that made me laugh out loud and the rape sub plot was very much interesting because it left us wondering what really happened...who to trust...and of course Amanda peet and Sean P. Flannery gave astounding performances throughout the whole movie but epecially at the end...honest to god and wonderfully provocative humor...this movie rocked...
