Movie Reviews of Virgin Territory
Movie Review: Mostly lame
Summary: 2 Stars
While apparently attempting to be an R-rated variation on "A Knight's Tale", this film fails to achieve that goal. Yes, the basic components are all there: famous young actor, rock music elements in the soundtrack, episodic and loosely strung together plot line, but in the end, it simply doesn't all come together. Even worse, it lacks the charm that "A Knight's Tale" had, which was what made that film rise above mediocrity in the first place.
There are some amusing scenes, the acting isn't atrociously bad (but not really good, either), and the production values are actually better than I'd expected. And there's a fair amount of bare flesh exposed every 10 to 15 minutes, as if the director knew he'd better keep tossing something to the crowd in order to keep them from dozing off. You get full-frontal female nudity, with a few shots of semi-clad males, taking into account the target demographic's comfort level. But all that's not enough to make this worth watching, at least not more than once.
The DVD transfer is good, though there were a couple of small audio drop-outs. Overall, the whole thing was a disappointment.
Summary of Virgin Territory
Hayden Christensen of Jumper stars as charming scoundrel Lorenzo di Lamberti who can - and does - deflower any woman he wants in 14th century Florence. But the only maiden that truly sets his heart ablaze is the sexy beauty Pampinea (Mischa Barton of The O.C.) who is also being pursued by an obsessed Russian count (Mathew Rhys of Brothers & Sisters) and a psycho nobleman (Academy Award? nominee Tim Roth) who has vowed to take her virtue. In a time when lust is contagious, can trickery become the ultimate act of seduction? Christopher Egan (Eragon) co-stars in this sexy action-comedy where one kiss may unlock a world of pleasure and anything can happen when you're in Virgin Territory.Stills from Virgin Territory (click for larger image)
