DVD Reviews of Forbidden
DVD Review: Semi-erotic - Forbidden
Summary: 4 Stars
Forbidden is another of the seemingly inexhaustible and growing supply of softcore flicks. So what's Forbidden about? Anybody that rents this kind of movie for the plot is going to be sorely disappointed but still, it has a plot, so I will describe it. The story centers around four people, Andy, Jason, Lisa and Monique. A couple days before Andy's impending marriage to Lisa, Andy's best friend, Jason, throws a bachelor party for him in a local hotel room with his buddies and a couple strippers. Andy can't seem to get into the swing of things so he goes outside and sits at a table by the pool and orders a drink and starts up a conversation with an attractive tall slender girl named Nikki (Renee Rea). Andy left the bachelor party because he intended to remain faithful to his fiancee Lisa (Tracy Ryan) but he gravitates to Nikki and though both their intentions seem to be honorable, they inevitably end up in bed for a memorable night. They both agree this was a one time fling, expecting to go on with their lives, never to see each other again. Unfortunately, Nicki really got under Andy's skin and he still thinks about her, even three years later when his friend Jason invites Andy and his now wife Lisa, to his family's vacation house for a long weekend and to meet his fianc`ee. Now Andy is the consummate player, who swore never to marry, so both Andy and Lisa are anxious to meet the woman who captured this confirmed bachelor`s heart.
Andy and Lisa arrive first and one thing leads to another and Andy starts shagging Lisa on the Billiard table. When Jason and Monique arrive, while Andy and Lisa are flagrante delicto, they make a mad dash to retrieve their clothes and dignity. After the embarrassed couple get dressed Jason introduces his fianc`ee Monique who to Andy's surprise it's his dream girl Nikki (Nikki is short for Monique). Unbeknown to Andy, Jason and Lisa have a past and unbeknown to Lisa, Andy and Nikki also have a past and what evolves is an almost comedic situation of musical partners and an anticlimactic climax.
Conclusion
Obviously with softcore movies, one has to use a different yardstick to review and rate them. The unstated but ultimate purpose of softcore movies is not so much to entertain but to stimulate the viewers, while entertaining them. If you do not believe this, I admire your naivety. With that in mind, I take this criterion into my reviews of softcore films. While sex scenes are supposed to be erotic in nature some succeed more than others. Of the ten or so sex scenes within the film, a single shower scene reached true eroticism for me. The other scenes while still "entertaining" seemed to be too choreographed and were, somewhat, devoid of emotion and even worse intensity.
Overall the flick had a relatively weak plot, an attractive cast who performed decently. The directing was acceptable, while cinematography was very good although it shot and edited in a straight forward manner..
