Warning: Spoilers
I have seen another movie that the premise is to have sex with one person and it ends up that you cant have sex without feeling something for thee other person. this movie is about the same they think that just because you think you are OK but want to spice things up abit and in the end the one couple is all about sharing but just sex and another is not happy because the wife is stuck with the kids with no outlet for her and her dumb husband smokes weed all the time and so the wife is left alone all the time but they finally figure it out and the couple who thought of it the husband gets to thinking that is having this great connection when the girl is just having great sex so he tells his wife that he is falling for the other woman so they are the only one that end up with ..Ok where do we go from here as the movie fades to black ..so in other words dont think that some miracle is going to save your marriage cause cheating will not slove anything you can never escape your feeling

Nothing much to gain by watching this.
It is interesting that this film has the word swinger in it, but this film is a gross representation of actual swinging culture.

That is a shame, because the film tries to be a comedy and really succeeds in that in the first act. But the situations and actions of the characters in this film do not seem to reflect anything relatable when it comes to swinging. This is odd because some of the actual situations that happen in the swinger lifestyle are much more hilarious than any of the events that happen in the movie. This film may not have been made for people familiar with the swinger lifestyle, and that is ok. But if the swinging bits could be taken out of the story without changing much, maybe you should not have it in there. The film could have done without it.

The films 3rd act has a few moments of heart that really shows you that grown adults with marital experience had some input in the screenplay. But the film cant seem to help throwing you a curve ball that makes you question what genre this film even belongs in.

The ending was horrible, and most of the characters did not have much of a resolution that the viewers could get behind.

Don't waste your time with this one.

What the heck?
rsmz5 December 2018
Three couples have their own swinger's weekend, a first for all of them. A good premise, but it deteriorates quickly. We have defined characters, but the movie does not work as a comedy, as an erotic movie, as a romantic movie or as any other genre. It's a lot of dialogue between four angry, repressed people and one couple that shouldn't be stuck with them. There is nothing to see here. I agree, the rave reviews seem very bogus.

I'm sorry but I think this is all I can give.

To the guy who said all the positive reviews were from friends of the crew, I agree.

My rating of 3 is for the incredible cottage & lake views that were obviously shoot in the Kawarthas or Muskoa's.

Great cottage!

Save your time

I'm thinking the 4 good reviews here must have been buddies with the producer because this is really bad. Bad acting, bad story and (sigh) so typically and embarrassingly Canadian. That should say it all. There are no redeeming features here and absolutely nothing to be gained by watching it.

Little to Recommend
MisterKevin24 October 2018
It is a nice cottage, I agree with the other reviewer there. Other than that I see very little to recommend. Bad acting, see-through stories, lame characters, just looks and seems cheap.

Garbage. Just garbage.
daniseku916 October 2018
I say this with the utmost honesty. This is the worst movie I've ever seen in my life. There is nothing here positive about it worth mentioning. This was absolutely moronic and I'm shocked anyone can say anything good about this.

really cute flick
albertagrl13 November 2018
Firstly, I love Erin Karpluk and she was amazing in this movie. All the characters had great chemistry and i found them really believable. I think some people are expecting a different kind of movie and that's why they may be disappointed. The trailer really does not do the film any justice and sort of sets you up to expect something different. I was happy with what we got. The film is for sure more of a drama than a comedy and I liked where it went. I would recommend this movie to my friends for sure.

One the worst movie ever
vittorio-139 May 2019
Here is what I don't get the end of the movie is the most interesting I can't believe I spent this time watching and eventually fast forward. Then when it final gets good. The end the movie. I guess the write thought now what? Well guess what. If somebody is dumb enough to make a sequel shame on them. There are actually some good actors in this show. It is just badly written and directed.

Someone swing me outta here! PLEASE!!!
arubaspicegirls9 September 2021
Not even the scenery rates a Star! The outside of the house is awful compared to the inside, though I was surprised at how small the rooms actually with the exception of the kitchen. Okay, enough of that. The 3 couples were exhausting to watch. I didn't like any of them, though the acting wasn't too bad, the writing could've been better. And Mia, girl, pick an accent please! Are you supposed to be British, Irish or American cuz you kept slipping between all 3 making me mute most of your spoken dialogue (besides the fact that I hated your character). This movie is typical regarding "swingers". Meaning you already know that someone is gonna be hurt by their spouse actually having sex with another person even though that was the purpose of the weekend. Fragile relationships do not bode well when sex with others is used as a cure or trying to get a spark back in a relationship. It was torture watching this and I really wish I hadn't but I did only cuz it's on my free Showtime trial.

Don't believe the ratings over 3! And that's being totally generous!!

I LOVED IT and I think you will too!
dga211213 November 2018
Well I'm thinking the bad reviews are from people who saw a different movie than i just did! I loved this movie. The acting was GREAT. From what I've heard, it was officially selected at many film festivals. I really loved the way the relationships unravel and it certainly made me laugh at times. I

Truth is comedy, comedy truth.
CoreMusicAgency17 May 2018
Very funny story that promises to be saucy, but gives you so much more. If you've ever been in a long-term relationship, you'll really like this movie. Great music!

I recently caught this film in Toronto and loved it. It was much more than I was expecting. The acting was great, it was laugh out loud funny, and was surprisingly poignant. I definitely recommend

charming little film
MovieChick0315 May 2018
I was expecting a typical sex comedy, I got much more. What a surprise! The cast was terrific, each actor brought something fresh and new. The film begins with a light, comedic tone and then about a third way through, there's a shift. The film takes a more dramatic theme as relationships are put to the test. Go see it!
