Scathingly honest and hilarious stories trace sexual encounters among 5 couples, from Foreplay through Afterglow. But hooking up isn't always easy as each couple's attempt to get it on is met with an endless stream of complications. (Maple Pictures)

Not a great film or a great comedy. The film works more as a guide to the sex act for various types of relationships. There is a little something for a wide range of viewers, they only forgot about homosexuals (except for sperm donors) and various deviants, so you won’t get to see any children or pets, for instance. I thought the premise was good, it just could have been handled slightly better, but I wasn't bored and had a few good laughs, so why not?

Unlike American Pie and similar comedies, this film is more of an excursion than comedy, focusing on the act itself, from the initial “let’s get it on, baby” to the post-orgasm cigarette. This approach takes away everything unnecessary, leaving only that which is essential, delivered in five different forms, among which each (sexually active) viewer can find something that speaks to them – whether in one particular episode or in the details of several of them (depending on how experienced you are). The film aptly portrays the individual situations and doesn’t pull any punches, but it’s not overly straightforward or primitive, and the guys are funny and the girls HOT. YPF is a nice chill-out movie that entices the audience to “get it on” themselves.

Four couples, one wild night and lots of sex from a different angle each time. Well, why not? Original idea, pretty women, decent humour and above all good fun. I had a good time. It's surprising how much the film has in common with reality. 75%.

Although sincere and without unnecessary plot diversions, it still remains mostly detached from reality. Five well-worn stories that won't grab your heart, but will occasionally make you laugh – maybe – sometimes unintentionally, sometimes intentionally. In the end, I might prefer the more cinematic aspects, because when I see mini-stories like in Kill Bill (but at night, in Chinese, and backwards), the romantic anecdotes around are them quite nice in other cases, and occasionally they have something to offer.

I don't know what to make of this. It was occasionally a bit funny, but not very daring. It was all handled quite decently, which is also nice, but with this title, one might expect a bit more than just a romantic film about love expressed through sex and certain mishaps. It's average, and that's probably the best way to describe it.
