Boring movie about making porn and a bunch of stripper clips sewn together
27 June 2015
It seems that any hint of crime thriller here is only a pretext for showing naked ladies. My Trip Back to the Dark Side is one of the movies which has pointless plot, yet takes much too long to build up. Expect lots of ranting and nagging conversations before even the faintest of noir story takes place. It's definitely not worth investing time even for thriller fans, in fact the movie's only good point is its promiscuous scenes.

Story follows Shawn (Jason Pace) who is down on his luck. The movie he worked so hard on was canceled, and now he is given the chance to make porn for dubious characters for high sum of money. For the casting and script, the movie aims to be humorous and it does seem bizarre enough to be authentic, but it wastes so much time rehearsing unnecessary plot. It's boorish and tedious, especially with the crime drama toned down.

There's not much presentation to be had, you can delve further into technical aspect like cinematography, although everything here is mediocre at best. It doesn't have comedy or thrill, in fact for one and half hour runtime it's incredibly shallow and empty.

The movie almost like an inside joke on how to make porn looks much grandeur that it really is. The most time this movie captures audience's attention would be when attractive ladies perform flexible motions with their unclothed bodies.
