Another lame attempt to bring extreme eroticis to the big screeen.

Using explicit visual language, [the filmmakers] are trying to explore the difference between lust and love, two forces so entwined in new romantic relationships that the lines are blurred.

With its drawn-out last act and sentimental ending, pic is a long way from being the Gen-Y Last Tango in Paris it would like to think it is.

Shot and edited nicely, and features a strong and quite brave performance from Lauren Lee Smith.

Director Clement Virgo, working with his partner Tamara Faith Berger's short, snappy novel, Lie With Me, strives to get beyond titillation and largely succeeds.
