Tonight, they're going to get it - and more. Four guys and four girls set off on a wild ride through L.A.'s nightlife, dressed to kill and ready to party hard. And as the drinking, dancing and sexual tension intensifies the night gets out control and ultimately changes everyone, forever.
It's 'Melrose Place' meets Sex and the City' when Sean Patrick Flanery, jerry O'Connell, Amanda Peet, Brad Rowe, Tara Reid, Ron Livingston, Emil Proctor and Sybil Temchen star in the sexy and provocative Body Shots.
Considering the rating of body shots, it has sent home a message to me I will take to the grave. You must see this movie. I have seen plenty of teenage based films, more than any other genre lately, this film is in its unique way a pleasant change. Yet, the cast make me feel right at home because of previous teen flicks they have appeared in.
I thought the cast blended perfectly. The character I knew immediately was Sara, played by Tara Reid. I loved her in American Pie and Urban Legend. In this flick her character was one I felt for. Then there was Jerry O'Connell who played footballer and tough guy Michael. I enjoyed his role in the 2nd instalment of the scream trilogy as the boyfriend of stalker victim, Sydney Prescott. Again his role in this one was someone who I felt sorry for even though the situation was probably his fault as much as anyone's. Amanda Peet is also another character that has recently hit the big and small screen. Her role of Jane was one of compassion and sensibility. She doesn't rush into things, which in today's world is very important. Amanda also stared in the funny film the Whole Nine Yards, alongside Hollywood legend Bruce Willis, a film I loved. She also stars in the TV series called Jack and Jill. Her character's name in the series is Jacqueline 'Jack' Barrett. I look forward to seeing her in more movies.
Each character in Body Shots gives their view on the main topic that we all grapple with in life - Sex. The men from the guys point of view and the women from the girl's point of view. They talk about everything and anything, and boast about every sexual experience they have had. Here is where this gets like one of my favourite TV shows, and a lot of other people's as well - Sex and the City. Body Shots has that feel to it in my opinion and I enjoyed the way the message was delivered. They're some scenes that relate to this topic which made me laugh and also sit up and take notice.
Then the film moves onto the night on the town, which for me showed how vulnerable people can let themselves go. In fact some characters say that losing or not being control is the best way to be. But in my opinion, the film shows that doing this is leaving yourself open for to many unknowns to happen. I have no problem with people having a good time, but don't let it ruin the rest of your life.
In the end this film for me has taught one thing. What makes a relationship is love and companionship, not sex. Sex completes it by making LOVE. To finish, the summary by the cosmopolitan magazine sums this one up for me.
'A sexy and sinful look at being single in the new millennium. Body Shots hits it dead on'.
I agree. Being single isn't such a hassle or shouldn't be a problem, it's how you handle being single and the risks you take to avoid being the odd one out. If you can, do yourself a favour and put this one on the top of your 'must see' list!
