SPOILERS....SPOILERS FOR DAYS Dear People of Color....do not watch this movie...unless you want to SCREAM.1st. All the women who are getting f****** are WHITE. They are f****** mostly by minorities. One PAINFUL SCENE involves a Spanish MAN trying to explain how he's not from Mexico. She says she's an undisclosed escort dealing with sexual trauma and who spends most of the time speaking down to him, brandishing a gun and acting like he shouldn't think anything of the dishonesty. She then calls him BUSTER BROWN and THEN ASKED HIM FOR SEX and then she says it's a joke?!?!?!?!?!?. At the end of the movie the GUN (which she said was a lighter goes off) I almost threw my phone.2nd. The ONLY Black woman in the movie gets talked to like trash for half of her conversation after just having served her "White" lover who doesn't want to be anything but a Pillow Princess...don't get me started ON THAT PART.3rd, The only Black man in the movie is some old Black dude married to some White woman. Which is fine and yet it's still the White woman being served kind of like if Driving Ms. Daisy was an old people porno.4th.Even one of the scenes with GAY males are about some "ethnic looking" guy being of service to some White lost guy who doesn't know if he's Gay or not. Again the "minority looking person" is essentially being used to service the White person.I AM SO SICK of this troupe. I can't even. How do people see this crap and not want to lose their minds? DEAR WHITE PEOPLE....ya'll need to be ASHAMED of yourselves.

...a really honest movie about sex. I even created an account just so I could say how much I appreciated the candor and variety presented in this film. The characters are complex, yet accessible, and the dialog is comprehensive and thoughtful, yet not at all pretentious. Each vignette is just long enough to be interesting and complete, yet not too long, so you won't get bored by too much talk. As as Sociologist, I may be a little biased (I can people watch for hours), but the subject matter will captivate - trust me. I am at home, sacked out on the couch with pneumonia, right now, or I would say more. But, know that I went to the trouble of creating this account just to brag on this movie. It will pique your interest, trust me. Cheers.

I think the best sequence was the one with Mila Kunis and Zoe Saldana. Unfortunately, for some reason, the ending was cut. Not only did the ending complete the sequence, it was by far the most sensual, and interesting part. It was also one of the most erotic verbally descriptive scenes I have ever heard. It was from Zoe to Mila. It was so sensual and erotic, that part of it had to be whispered. My words are not doing it justice. This next sentence may merit a "Spoiler Alert." After Zoe's deeply moving erotic "words," Mila's cold character (Nikki) just melted and then admitted " You just made me so f….. wet"Fortunately, this fantastic "Unseen Director's Cut" was picked up by YouTube, and can be viewed on YouTube under "Mila Kunis and Zoe Saldana in After Sex (Unseen Director's Cut). It's too bad that everyone who watched that film won't get to see this: The best part of the best sequence of the entire film (AND THEY CUT IT!). Sorry, it infuriates me to think that they could do such a thing. Whatever the reason (It wasn't language, because the language was consistent with the language throughout the sequence), it wasn't good enough. Just my opinion!Oh yes, YouTube has both the complete version and the incomplete version. Be sure you select the "Unseen Director's Cut."

This movie is very engaging. Even with it's worst story line, it is never dull. The movie is divided into several conversations after sex. The conversations are interesting, humorous, sometimes painful, but mostly the characters are speaking honestly about life, and the wounds it can leave behind. What i like about this movie is it has integrity and balls. It is down right gritty. The director is taking these very touchy/taboo subjects and serving them on a spoon to the public. Some of the scenes may make more conservative people uncomfortable. Exploring gay/lesbian sex,interracial sex and first times, it's bound to make someone shake their head in disapproval, but i for one think a good movie does that. It makes people talk. For a low-budget film, it has a high emotional quality. It seems true to life i guess, which is a rare quality because most movies don't. They are so contrived/fabricated they become hard to relate to. I think this movie about stuff that can/does happen to everyone. It is genuine to the human condition.The only problem i have with the movie is i want more. This film has these really likable characters, specially, the first couple, but the moments don't last long enough. We bounce from one couple to the next after they have sexual intimacy, but we the viewer never fill intimate with the characters. There is a sense of detachment from the characters that keep the story forgettable.
