"Nine Lives"
Scenes of Sex
Amos Lassen
Looking at the sex lives of nine men is the subject of "Nine Lives" which is made up of nine monologues. The monologues are held together by sex scenes but the revelations that we hear in the monologues are the "meat" of the film. We hear about aging, infidelity, being HIV positive, love, lust as well as drug and sex addiction or as some of you may say, all of the things that make life worth living. Michael Kearns ("Dream Man") and Dean Howell are responsible for this film of our lives.
Kearns plays a middle-aged man from West Hollywood who has lost three lovers--one to the war in Vietnam and two to AIDS. He is now just searching for a good time. He meets a good looking Hispanic named Carlos who works for a couple in a long time dysfunctional relationship. There is Daniel, a closeted writer for television and Corey who suffers abuse from him. There is Mikey a drug dealer ad James a user and there are others, each with a story to tell.
Steamy hot sex in between the monologues keeps the interest level high. I loved the honesty of the film and found it to be revolutionary. It is such a true picture of the way so many live today. We do not have enough moves like this and even though the sex scenes are quite bold, they do not take away from the monologues.
Rating: - Nine Lives
A OK movie. actors did a good job. Love the sex, love all true stories, but it's a little bit to documentary for me.
Rating:  - Nine Lives
Boring..boring..boring..What an absolute waste of money. I read the synopsis of the movie and it looked interesting. I purchased it and realized that I had truly wasted my money. Nothing original and interesting, just stories, which by themselves were not interesting, with some flashes of simulated sex, which wasn't interesting either, thrown in for no reason. This movie is a dud.
Rating: - poor,Poor,POOR
I'll not belabor the point. It's a poor remake of Six degrees of Seperation. The only thing worse than the acting is the videography
Rating: - Save your money and do not buy this Movie!!!
Even though I purchased this movie at Amazon and on sale, all I can say is what a waste of money. The plot is obviously written by a self loathing writer who surrounds himself in darkness. Not one of his sordid tales has a glimmer of happiness. The acting is shady at best. Moral of the story seems to be gay men can't be happy and the world is dark. Do yourself a favor and pass on this purchase.
