Elektra Luxx (Carla Gugino) is an L.A. porn actress who is horrified to find she's pregnant from rocker Nick Chapel (Josh Brolin). Nick dies in an airplane washroom having sex with flight attendant Cora (Marley Shelton). Elektra gets stuck in an elevator with Doris (Connie Britton). Doris admits to having a baby with her meth-dealing crazy boyfriend. He got arrested and she left her baby with her sister Addy. Addy has taken Charlotte as her own daughter. Charlotte is in therapy with Dr. Maxine McPherson (Sarah Clarke). Abby is having an affair with her husband Travis (Simon Baker). Holly Rocket (Adrianne Palicki) is a fellow porn actress who does work with call-girl Bambi (Emmanuelle Chriqui). Bert Rodriguez (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a sex blogger.
Like most interconnected multiple-storied movies, there are some characters that are more interesting than others. On the whole, I find enough to compel me to keep watching. The McPhersons' marriage problem is a little tiresome. I like the wild adventures of Adrianne Palicki and Emmanuelle Chriqui. They have a Thelma and Louise vibe. Elektra serves more as the connective tissue. Doris has a nice scene with Charlotte.
