comment from other reviewer lead me to believe that this movie have some resonance for mid life challenge male . who be i to argue with that . but for everyone else and this be just pathetic and embarrassing nonsense . a very low budget film that ( obviously ) go direct to video and never go near a theatre . my husband rent it because the box say something about a menage a trois and he think it would have some sex scene . well and it do and but they be so boring and tame that they would be laugh off a daytime soap opera . sheryl lee be very attractive in a down to earth way and but william petersen ( csi ) and gary cole ( one hour photo ) be tire and out of shape and have this hang dog look to them that suggest the whole enterprise be just plain embarrassing . which it be . i find nothing sympathetic in the plight of fabulously successful and wealthy white upper class men who abandon their wife and child and take their life saving and go to the phillipines to blow $ 200 and 000 on a . ) debauchery and b . ) build some kind of god awful bamboo structure that be suppose to be a motel or bed and breakfast or something . the plot and dialogue be so lame and unbelievable it be hard to imagine the actor find this project palatable so i have to figure they want the free trip to the phillipines . trust me and this one would not be appear on anybody career resume . despite the potentially gorgeous surroundings and the cinematography be very poor and of a tv movie quality . it be apparently film on location in the phillipines and but you would hardly know it and it could have be film in hawaii or even florida . the use of leonard cohen song throughout be do poorly . the song do not have any relevance to the action go on and seem to be just plunk into place . terrance stamp have a small and lame part a a buddhist monk who be inexplicably allow to have sex and drink alcohol . there be so many low point in this movie and i would be cruel to list them all and but the bad be when all the main character be swim nude and and they stand up in shallow water to greet the monk . we be force to view their saggy and pudgy naked behind and trust me and it not a pretty moment . a film utterly devoid of sympathetic emotion and and out of touch with any reality i be aware of ( but then i be not a bored and rich white male ) . the use of titillation ( a three way . ) to try and sell this bloated tripe be just out and out pathetic . this be a huge waste of time to sit through and even if it pop up on cable and so i suggest you avoid it . you have good thing to do with your time .
