Reviews

Great Film, Great Release

"Brilliant packaging that arrived in good condition. I really enjoyed the contents of this film and found it to be kind of darkly humorous."

— Noah F. (5/5)

Meh, glad I grabbed it

"Meh, glad I grabbed it on a sale."

— Justin B. (2/5)

Unlikeable

"I had to struggle all the way through this thing, trying my best to like this guy and it never materialized. Try as I may, this guy, as they say, just rubbed me the wrong way. I felt no sympathy for him or his plight. I stuck it out though, hoping for a miracle to happen but in the end, the guy remained absolutely unlikeable. I can, however, recommend this movie. I recommend it to Caveh himself. I would imagine that he could watch it endlessly."

— paul b. (2/5)

Cool Artwork, Weird Movie

"Bought this because some of it was shot in San Francisco and I know a woman who acted in it. The picture quality looks good for this low budget documentary. The subject matter is very dated and stale but it's somewhat a decent comedy."

— Akash K. (5/5)

A comedy film about sex addiction

"I loved the looks of this one when I saw it on the website. Strange little comedy about a man's sex addiction and his obsession with prostitutes. Not something I'd rewatch a lot but I'm definitely glad I have it in my collection. Very nice slipcover artwork too."

— Scott C. (4/5)

Good and fun documentary

"Very cool idea which took years to this long as a documentary. Including lots of good comedic elements."

— Mika V. (3/5)

excellent

"wild movie"

— Mark S. (5/5)

The main character is not

"The main character is not what I expected but the movie over all was great the ending was everything I thought it would be. The picture quality looks great."

— Curtis F. (5/5)

I am a sex addict

"Gutsy, shocking, and unrestrained"

— Jared W. (5/5)

I Wanted So Badly To Like This One. . .

"but sadly I didn't. I don't have a "sell" pile just yet, but if and when I do, this one will probably go in it. I can usually find something redeemable in every film, though I couldn't with I AM A SEX ADDICT. Sorry :("
