I usually have the habit of reading reviews and searching info about the film before I chose watch it - I didn't want to risk end up seeing a dead boring one despite of spending time and bandwidth to download it.
This time around, I chose a film randomly and watched it. It happened to be a new lesser known Australian film. Impressed by the film I wrote the review in IMDB. This is my first review in IMDB site.
You may read the review in IMDB here or read it below.
Holly (Viva Bianca) is a call girl who is in her last night job before she's going to quit and start a new life in France with her obsessive client.
Shay (Hanna Mangan Lawrence), a 17 year old who had a troubled childhood arrives in Sydney for her first night on the job. She faces the arduous nature of the job (having no money even to eat) - giving handjob to an old man, jealousy of other street hooker and pimps.
Holly and Shay cross paths for a job. When both of them witness a murder by a crooked cop, it turns out to be a cat and mouse chase with unexpected twists.
There's a lot of nudity and sexual acts - including Holly's opening lovemaking scene with a male prostitute before the rich middle aged women. Though one may get the idea even from the movie poster that this is an erotic movie, it is more apt to be tagged as a thriller than an erotica. None of erotic scenes are meant for us to enjoy it because the Director (Jon Hewitt) doesn't wants us to; instead he wants us to concentrate on the hard-hitting storyline.
There is commendable acting by every character involved in this thriller. And cinematography aids us to glue to our seat.
This is an exploitation movie in line with Irreversible (2002) with ultra violence and sex abundantly thrown in.
