Movie Reviews of The Pet

Movie Review: A Bad Movie
Summary: 1 Stars

I looked forward to this movie's release, especially after seeing the trailers. In short, it is terrible in about every way imaginable. You could steer an aircraft carrier through the holes in the plot, and the acting was just awful.

Probably worse than the money I wasted on this is the black-eye it gives to BDSM. There is not a character in the film who could not be considered quite insane. This is not even a love story. It's a strange story about bizarre people, all of whom manage to be inept human beings with no moral bearing. All that and it manages to be boring too.

Movie Review: wow
Summary: 5 Stars

only complaint is about the ending of the movie and not the product really. movie rocks along then the ending credits puts some real life facts about human slavery. really out of place for a fiction movie.

Movie Review: Highly anticipated purchase; atrocious result
Summary: 1 Stars

This was a gift to someone special last year, and I was thrilled to have it delivered before the holidays; we were both eagerly anticipating seeing it after having viewed its very intriguing trailer on the web. I can report that the actual film has a plot that is convoluted and crippled with an absence of logic. This effort tries to be many things, including being a lifestyle film with some thrill components, a morality tale, and, partly, a film that dips slightly into the psychological exploration of D/s. The result is a nicely photographed steaming pile of celluloid filled with bad acting and really bad lines that was incredibly disappointing to see. Once the credits rolled, I knew I had just experienced the worst film I had ever seen, and I felt utterly embarrassed that I had given it as a gift. I feel an obligation to caution any potential viewers: save your money and do not buy this dvd!

Movie Review: Interesting
Summary: 3 Stars

I may be a bit jaded due to my background in media studies, but the bad acting really gets in the way of the storyline, especially in the first half of the film; the pacing in the first half is also faster than what seems realistic. For those who can overlook the acting, however, this can be a good film indeed. Nonetheless, this is a very thought-provoking film, causing the viewer to consider both why someone would agree to become a "pet" and consider the reality of the human slave trade (especially the facts about various countries immediately before the closing credits).

Movie Review: Recommended for those into the power exchange lifestyle
Summary: 4 Stars

Fairly good flick. Not really erotic in any overt way, but it does give an entertaining exposition of the power exchange lifestyle. On the other hand, it does have an adequate quantity of nudity to be entertaining.
WARNING:PLOT SPOILERS:
Some silliness-"The Pet" signs an EXTENSIVE power exchange contract after two days of "trying it out" after never having been involved in the scene at all. This INCLUDES permanent body modifications. The scene where she is "seduced" into trying a power exchange is actually very nice. My sub noted that this is a movie with elements which are attractive to both female and male sensibilities. Other silliness is the dichotomy between the pet's Master being interested in a loving power exchange, and being a part of a brutal, homicidal international slave trafficking shadow organization. And, sorry, the ending is just plain goofy. But there is much to like here, fine settings, interesting interactions, beautiful cages. : ) Worth the price of admission.
