    It's tough to be cerebral about low-brow humor.

    7 skits, but only 2 and a half are funny!

    Aphrodisiacs-
    I liked this segment. Allen as a fool trying to do stand up comedy before the medieval court is ready to hear his jokes was funny. The slapstick and verbal jabs were enjoyable.
    Sodomy-
    Uncomfortable! A much longer dramatic story greatly condensed. At times made ...( read more)me laugh a little, but this was as I turned my head and tried to cover my eyes.
    Women's Orgasms-
    Copying an Italian Art picture. Wow, never seen Woody Allen play this cool Italian sort of character, he can play something besides the nebish neurotic New Yorker. It is funny that Americans have always been more accepting of sexual themes in foreign films, as long as we can't understand the words, Europe can talk about or show us anything.
    Transvestites-
    Actually the guy is a crossdresser, not a transvestite. This one was not very funny.
    Perversion-
    A fake TV gameshow with a young Regis Philbin as one of the guest celebrity panelists. I didn't understand the rules of the game cause I don't think it was developed enough. Again not very funny.
    Sexual Research-
    A science fiction B-movie. Complete with man and woman strangers meeting and by coincidence having the same destination, a creepy old mansion run by a mad scientist with humped back servant, the mad scientist's laboratory going haywire allowing a giant monster experiment to escape, and the man and woman turned heroes finding hick sheriff and working together to capture the rampaging killer experiment. Now, the scientist is researching sex and the escaped monster experiment is a single giant boob! There are so many BAD jokes and the milk is gross! Still I laughed a few times in spite of myself when I wasn't cringing.
    Ejaculation-
    I don't have any desire to see Eddie Murphy's Meet Dave. This is much funnier especially since it deals with the male body in preparation for having sex. Tony Randall, Burt Reynolds, and many others work the brain control room sending out orders for different body parts to respond when necessary. Hilarious!! The short circuit, the pleasure center, the priest tying up the conscience and making guilt keep the gears in the erection room from working properly, and of course all the sperm getting ready to "fertilize an ovum or die trying" is genius. Woody Allen as the one sperm who is afraid and doubting his purpose in life is worth seeing.

    Allen tries hard on a bit more edgier comedy based on some curious sexual habits. Some moments are outrageous, but not all of them work, none its hysterically funny except from the last one. despite that, all the episodes have their own "charm", in a quirky way.

    Hilarious short stories about everything you always wanted to know about sex, but were afraid to ask. My personal favorite is the last one.

    66/100

    really horrible, started out good, then turn to excrement.
  • September 9, 2009
    Funny and disturbing. But still a good Woody Allen film.

    can't stand Woody Allen,..never could. And even the star power lurking about in this couldn't get me to like him or it.
