I have heard of films that don't have a sense of what they are. I never really understood this until I saw Post Coitum. I liked this film for the same reasons I like many Czech films: a sense of realism and humor. I also like the experimental techniques used. Yet the film ventures off into attempted slap-stick which mildly succeeds, but mostly looks like a bad impersonation of 'an American' film. It's quite funny that many people here (CZ) complain about unrealism of USA films in light of this film. Regardless, if you want to do slap-stick then do it, and throw realism to the wind. This is especially true towards the end of the film where events become dubiously unbelievable. It's also a rather cynical film since the two most morally irreproachable characters have the worst endings while those who lie and shag and cheat end up OK. As far as the nudity in the previous post, grow up, its the human body. Post Coitum did have an interesting message about the meaning of sex and what happens after it, but in its attempts to be funnier, it loses the respect it could have commanded.
