Shame - 2011



 Chandler - 12/17/12

Alright... so there's this British guy in NYC that is addicted to sex and porn. Which I guess is really just an addiction to getting off. Which guy isn't, right? Well Shame attempts to show sex addiction in all of its destructive glory. And from what I can tell, they did a decent job. However, the movie comes off as... life. It is what it is. The story exists. Millions of people are probably struggling to exist with the constant need to rub one out at work and finding hookers every night. In an attempt to have some sort of conflict, the guy's crazy sister unexpectedly moves in and messes up his routine.

Shame feels real. There's no resolution. But there are a ton of titties. And British penis. So something for everyone? Regardless, the movie took a rarely talked about topic and attempted to be honest. Two points for honesty.

Rating - 2
