Now & Later

A hollow concoction of sex, politics and endless chatter that's just a few camera angles short of hard-core porn.

Exudes an amiably accessible vibe that softens the edges of its freewheeling explicitness.

Sex or politics? Politics or sex? Director-writer Philippe Diaz can't decide what "Now & Later" should be about. So he mixes the two -- and comes up with a murky mess.

An oddball hybrid of porn film and message movie.

For all of its subtext-free critique of American hypocrisy, Now & Later's sex is strictly all-American.

Shrilly over-written and artlessly directed by Philippe Diaz, and with the same presumptuousness he brought to the documentary The End of Povery?

The politics is probably more entertaining than the sex and neither is particularly new and exciting.

A cast and crew of newcomers bring a social/political manifesto to the big screen with mixed results.

The most sexplicit romp you'll encounter in theaters this year, guaranteed!

Essentially a lazy porno with an dull plot, poor performances and tacked-on, underexplored sociopolitical messages.
