Review of Threesome

Threesome (1994)
4/10
A not even remotely interesting exploration of adolescent sexuality and relationships.

I savor entertainment that explores relationships realistically, I delight in work that succeeds in portraying a group of friends who really look like they care for one another, I even feast on featherlight relationship comedies (if they appear sincere and heartfelt, which doesn't occur that often). What I don't indulge in are pointless, pretentious pieces of 'art', that consist of a contrived script and an excruciatingly bad acting ensemble.

Unfortunately, the latter is what best summarizes this drivel involving one-dimensional cardboard characters twaddling about nothing at all. In many ways a relationship between three people is endlessly more interesting than the classic pair. Unfortunately for myself and all other viewers victim of witnessing this movie, the writer leaves all the intriguing and intelligent parts out and what we are left with is a pretty formulaic comedy about people who want what they can't have. Been there, seen that...utterly boring.

I'd skip this one if I were you.
