Review by Susan Granger
0 stars out of 4
Let's not. Better to let Jerry Springer or Monica Lewinsky do
it. At least, that way you don't have to pay at the box-office. This
sleazy excuse for a docudrama, written and directed by Troy Beyer, who
played Diahann Carroll's daughter on "Dynasty," stars Beyer as a Miami
advice columnist who wants to graduate from newspaper work to TV. In
order to make the transition, she has to come up with a sample program
about "what makes girls tick," so she and her two roommates (Paget
Brewster, Randi Ingerman) hit the streets with their videocam to
discover women's biggest gripes about men, the insensitive
brutes. There's lots of graphic, titillating talk, which bears a
striking similarity to reading aloud the raunchy walls of a public
rest-room, as the trio come to terms with their own sexual
problems. Talk about hypocritical, cliche-drenched, psycho-babble! On
the Granger Movie Gauge of 1 to 10, "Let's Talk About Sex" is so
cheesy and shallow that it's barely a 1. Yeah, it gets laughs - all
the wrong kind.
