Description:
From the heat of the first look to the importance of out erotic fantasies, Kim Cattrall explores both the physical chemistry and the emotional complexity of raw sexual desire Is it possible to develop a sexual intelligence? Can we unravel the mysteries of desire and fantasy? In SEXUAL INTELLIGENCE, the actress (Sex and the City) and author (Satisfaction) who famously broadened our notions of modern sexuality, navigates a whimsical investigation into what turns us on and why. Drawing on mythology, history, master works of art, cheeky animation and candid interviews with a diverse group of sexual adventurers, sexologists and authors, Kim urges us to broaden and explore our own understanding of erotic desire--making us laugh all the while. From the glorious beaches of Cyprus--the mythical birthplace of love Goddess Aphrodite--to the site in England of a 200 year old, 26 ft long phallus to the 'Secret Museum' in Naples, where the erotic treasures of ancient Pompeii have been locked away for centuries, Kim takes us on a breathless tour of sexual significance and cultural discovery. Smart, arousing, and blush-worthy, SEXUAL INTELLIGENCE is Sex 101 for adults. DVD Features: Behind-the-Scenes with the Animators; Music Video: Tegan & Sara Speak Slow; Kim Cattrall Biography; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection (16:9 Anamorphic Widescreen format)

In a nutshell, Kim Cattrall's Sexual Intelligence is the audio/ visual companion piece to her bestselling book of the same title. Much like her book, the Sexual Intelligence documentary is a fun look at getting honest, serious and, educated, about why we want what we want sexually, albeit in an abridged and lighthearted forum. Your hostess Kim Cattrall, Sex In The City's 'Samantha Jones,' takes you far and wide in search of the history and roots of sexual desire. From the fertile hills of England, to the shores of Greece, into cities of Ancient Rome, through the Victorian Age and into bedrooms of the modern world Kim Cattrall and her panel of experts (and a few average spokespeople featured in her book) explore and discuss various aspects of the human sexual experience. One of the more interesting segments is a detailed breakdown of the ancient Greek tale of Eros (Cupid) and Psyche. Though not exactly a Joseph Campbell interpretation of the Greek myth, the analysis of how the Greeks explained the importance of balancing carnal lust (Eros) with the soul (Psyche) in order to achieve pleasure is extremely well done. Though Sexual Intelligence does provide some interesting commentaries and the bells and whistles you expect from the medium, it comes off a little light on the 'whats' and 'hows' of becoming sexually intelligent. If you plan on expanding your sexual mind, expect to pick up the companion book and start reading. But, if you are looking for fun, smart, escapism look no further. --Rob Bracco

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Somebody must have had it in for Kim Cattrall to put her in this
Like my title says, someone must have had it in for Kim Cattrall to put her in this thing. Ms. Cattrall is always worth watching, but she shares the stage with a lot of other people who are not. After she steps off the screen the disk is a great cure for insomnia, but I can sleep well without it, thank you. The surprising thing is, it is produced by HBO, which is otherwise noted for the exceptional quality of their productions. This is a disk you will want if you are a Kim Cattrall collector. Otherwise, keep your money in your pants.
Rating:  - Sexual Intelligence, or common sense
The topic was well handled in a general sense. The format was quick paced and pleasing. Many of the issues raised were interesting takes on subjects that we intuitively know and understand, but Ms. Catrell reminds us of their significance. While there is nothing earth shattering on the DVD, it does serve to reinforce a common sense view of sex and the different ways men and women approach the subject.
Rating: - It gives you great sex education but could have been a lot better
I am a big fan of Kim Cattrall and I thought she did a great job being the host of this documentary. She educates you own sex like the history of it and showing us museum's that has picture's of greeks. She even went to England were the ground was carved shaped into a giant penius which would never be in the U.S.
What I hated about this documtary was not enough nudity and they didn't show people actually having sex all they did was talked about sex. And Kim Cattrall who played in "Sex in the City" she had lot's of sex on that show but in Sexual Intelligence she doesn't even get fully naked not even one time. She's only naked on the DVD cover just her way to get people to buy this what a rip off.
I wish Kim Cattrell could play in adult movies.
Rating: - Whose idea was this?
While I love the cover artwork, the rest of the program isn't really all that sexy. The problem is that she's pretending to be SATC's Samantha Jones. I love SATC, but it's lame when an actor acts "in character" away from the show itself. In fact, it's embarrassing. Not only that, but the presentation isn't very good. Kim deserves credit for trying. Older women are very sexy. It's just a shame Kim Cattrall didn't host this instead of "Samantha-lite".
