I liked this film a lot more than I thought I would. It is quite flawed in parts but it is great to experiment and not get it quite right then to follow the usual formulas. I think a lot of people are missing the point in dissecting this film to classify it as soft/semi hardcore porn.
Spoiler-please do not read any further if this spoils the plot for you!
This film is about a transaction, not about sex. The main female character comes to this realization but ultimately it is the male character that is deluding himself and pays the price for his misplaced fantasising and realises what a facile, surrealistic and empty existence he is living. People who pay for sex are losers no matter how rich they are.
I thought the acting was good; it was nice to have a realistic ending and not a 'Pretty Woman' type happy ending. I wonder if Pretty Woman would have been so successful if it had starred Chris Evans and Billie (a real life Pretty Woman scenario).
