Sex and Death 101 (2007)


The idea of the movie is simple and original. This movie catchy straight from the start. Mix sex and death so right was good idea.

Watching the movie makes you think as you looking at simple entertaining movie sort of 'good luck Chuck'. However sometimes you can see confusing monologues of main actor and gothic looking woman starring Winona Ryder who kills randomly without any point.

And only the end, when two ambiguous characters, who have no similarity, but connected by overall aim - sex and death - meet each other, then we can see beginning of philosophy and philosophy of life. And attention brought to the main question on meaning of the life.

But it does not really direct on philosophical reflections about true values and the human applicability. Initially the idea was probably good. however the end-product wasn’t right. They tried to have drama, comedy and philosophy together but haven’t succeeded.
