Body Shots (1999)
Director: Michael Cristofer
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
The LA singles scene has rarely looked less appealing. Eight glossy twenty-somethings meet to trawl bars and nightclubs. After rather too many vodka jellies, they pair off: the two lawyers together; the actress and the pro-football player; the cocktail waitress and the fool in golfing trousers. By morning, the camaraderie and good feeling are shaken by one girl accusing her partner of date rape. The characters are shallow, self-obsessed and charmless, and matters aren't helped by contrived, straight-to-camera interviews with each actor.Author: WI
