    The New York Times Manohla Dargis

    The amateurish production values might be pardonable if the clichs -- the hard-core porn star with the soft heart, the therapist who needs to heal herself -- inside the poorly lighted, badly shot images weren't so absurd and often insulting.

    Awkwardly mixes blue material with sob stories.

    Los Angeles Times Kevin Thomas

    The sexual humor is often bawdy, and Gutierrez goes right up to the edge of camp.
