Brilliantly pieced and beautifully mastered! Lawson redefines sex in 90 minutes of real, raw & soul-loving laughter! The film creates a mix of emotions with each story and each character - inviting into a world of hilarious stories that aren't your own! So brilliant is his vision and piecing together - making for a seamless film that can takes us from laughter to heartbreak in 0.5 seconds. A not-to-be-missed film for the young (not too young!), young at heart and more 'experienced'!! A 10 out of 10 for every moment, every line and the exceptional direction of Josh Lawson. Couldn't help but want more! A stunning cast lineup! Brilliant!

I'm reminded of the immortal words from Diff'rent Strokes: 'Now the world don't move to the beat of just one drum, what might be right for you, may not be right for some'. A tale of various suburbanites and their sex lives coalesce into a hilarious comedy that was not only interesting, but very funny. From a woman with a rape fantasy, to a husband drugging his wife in order to be close to her again, to a woman who gets off on her husband's tears, each "bizarre" sexual fantasy is shown so nonchalantly. The tone of the movie isn't to show these people as deviant, but as everyday people trying to live their lives with different sexual appetites. And therein lies the comedy. Taking what on paper reads as deviant, but showing it in a way that appears normal. At least normal to the person with the *. These characters don't try to fix or adjust there fantasy for the sake of their relationship, they accept themselves wholeheartedly. They're so consumed by their sexual fantasies and problems that they're even oblivious to a sex offender handing out sweets and saying he's moved into the neighborhood. We never find out what he ever did or go into his character with any depth. But that doesn't matter. He's only there to show how all encompassing there sexual compulsions are, who cares let alone has time to worry about the sex offender who's moved in next door. Open a bottle of wine and watch this film for a date night. It's funny, sometimes sad, and left me with a smile on my face. Enjoy!

I wanted to like The Little Death. I ended up disappointed. The "edgy" material loses any power after a short while and it becomes quite apparent that the film loses most of its comedic and entertainment value with it. The film is shown through several couples, which is interesting at first. But, once you get past their "fetishes" or problems, the intrigue is gone. The film feels very bland during the middle, even though crazy things may be happing. This makes you just kind of ready for the film to be over The writing and plot(s) rely on over-the-top people and scenarios that feels heavily forced and kills the humor. The comedy was few and far between, and the story got boring. (I never cared about any of them) I do want to acknowledge, though, that The Little Death may be better suited for different audiences than myself. It may be because I'm a male; It may be because I'm an American (or at least not Australian); or it may be because I don't get awkward or giggly just because the topic of sex is brought up, but this film just didn't do it for me.

Finally... With The Little Death I feel like we've finally turned a corner with Australian films - especially comedies. Writer/Director Josh Lawson has put together a brilliantly funny, original film that needs to be seen. The Little Death examines several suburban Austalian couples' and how their sex lives and fantasies affect their relationships. As Josh's character Paul mentions in a scene, "Whatever happened to good old, run of the mill sex? People have to complicate it with all this kinky stuff". Each couple have a fascinating, hilarious, heart-warming story that never seems over the top. This movie is laugh-out-loud hilarious, and I can't remember the last time we got that in an Australian comedy. Do yourself a favour - do not miss this movie!!!

I don't know where to begin, this movie was unexpected. It was a multi layered tale, somewhat all characters were connected, but all the story centers around the same theme and that is sexual fantasies. What happens when mismatch in desire get together for life. Counselling is the part of recovery nowadays, but everything lies in the effort that put on the practical side. So this movie takes such a wonderful journey with one less than half a dozen of pairs rides towards seeking solutions and answers for their wish. But the thing is, like the most of the movie's punchline say 'how far would you go for it?' is the movie that reveals to us. It was a brilliantly written for the screen and so the actors, who did their parts impeccably. The narration was so distinct in each tale and also had very good twists before the wrap up. It was a better movie than most of the sex comedies that we got fooled for its promotions. I won't surprise if Hollywood or other film industry remake it. Why do we need to read 'Kama Sutra' while this movie is out there. Definitely there won't be a better movie for adults to enjoy whole heartily, especially not recently as I'm aware. Finally, without minors around, but for ourself to have a great time. Don't think it is a build-up because it delivers a good entertainment with lots of 'laugh out lauds'. ''Also, I'm required by federal law to inform you that I am a convicted sex offender.'' Honest, brave, funny, lust, awkward, the story adds up in a variety of things except there is no true spice like really spicy. Because its want to tickle you than taking up everything seriously. That's why the movie clicked very well, even though the story leaps were very tight because of the many layers to cover. All the five tales ends in (around) three random displays of the acts. The first one for the intro, then where the problem arises and ends with the solutions and twists. I would love to have part 2, not the follow up because I want new sex related words from its dictionary with freshened pairs. The 'phone sex' part was everyone's favourite. Its the talk of the movie related blog, reviews, database, IRC and apps, and I as well loved it. That does not mean other characters and stories are weaker than this one. The 'rape', 'role play' and others are all so good too. Different viewers enjoy different type, that is according to close to their sex fantasies from one of these, I believe. So are you ready for 'the little death'?.

The Little Death is just a mostly laughless tour of unlikeable, depressive suburbanites. Its the problem with comedy.. to make a movie funny you need to get comedians.. not actors trying to be funny. Its not funny, its tedious. Maybe the aussies like it. Its just off. What I don't get are all the good reviews.. Did they watch a different movie? I like a good comedy. This falls flat at every level, its not original, not funny, bad acting. Its like a book of bad short stories. Don't waste your time. The overarching problem is the lack of a consistent comic tone. Sometimes Lawson seems to be aiming for the kind of observational humour that triggers laughs of recognition, but he's also willing to throw psychological probability out the window for the sake of a gag. It's often unclear whether we're meant to view the characters with revulsion or envy: even when the material is at its most grotesque, there seems to be an underlying faith that we'll enjoy watching good-looking people in split-level homes with IKEA-style furnishings and plenty of natural light.

This is the Hollywood's golden fleece, the sex comedy that Hollywood is always trying to make, and reliably always falls flat on its face with. And amazingly, all of a sudden there is this tiny movie that nobody counted on, and it's perfect, and it's from Australia. It's not even that it's an "alternative" film. The actors have that glossy soap-opera-star quality to them that I hate so much about Hollywood. They live in better apartments than me, they drive better cars then me (or, they drive cars), their engagement rings are way clunkier than anything I could afford. One major difference between this and the standard Hollywood fare is that the whole shindig is never trying to suck up to me by trying to make me feel like I'm part of this world. Most of all, though, the script is simply outstanding. As it should be if someone has to invest a mountain of money to turn it into a movie. Next, the actors know their craft. They're not just better looking people whom someone has put in front of a camera. And that's pretty much all their is to the big mystery why Hollywood apparently can't make a good sex comedy. PS: This movie entertained me while I was watching it, and kept me thinking afterwards.

The ideas behind The Little Death aren't bad. Paying one of the few compliments it will get from me, those ideas remind me of the work of Pedro Almodovar. As far as casting goes, Josh Lawson has brought together some accomplished and capable talent from the Australian entertainment industry. There's no weak link within their performances, so where does this film become groan inducing, rather than laugh inducing? Why is it uncomfortable to watch when it could be enlightening? The answer is in its execution. It fails to resonate at an interesting or believable level. The script has all the components to be entertaining, but the treatment lacks simple, raw regard for the truth of the subject matter. The character types are identifiable, quirky, but despite some impassioned, truthful performances, it is types the actors end up playing, not people. This speaks to Josh Lawson's inexperience as a director. You can't shake an audience's sensibilities, nor get them to laugh, by being clever. Lawson has taken a safe route when he needed to take risks. The result is that any genuine edginess from the characters and storyline is homogenized. Extreme moments that should be funny become dismaying. Stock pieces fall flat. The Little Death isn't the worst Australian film I've seen, but it does share the worst trait. It manages to snatch mediocrity from the jaws of success.

I've seen my fair share of comedies, to be honest its one of my favourite genre of film and television. However, when I sat down with my fiancé to watch The Little Death, I didn't quite expect the disturbing hilarity which ensued. IMDb describes the film as "a truly original comedy about sex, love, relationships and taboo." and I would certainly agree with them. Write and director, Josh Lawson (Anchorman 2), perfectly combines the awkwardness of discussing sex and fetishes with a funny and provocative insight into the lives of these fictional couples. From foot fetishes to rape fantasies, nothing is off limits here and the unfortunate involvement of a sign language translator in a sex chat call tops it off perfectly and had me dreading the next scene for fear of my sides actually splitting. In simple terms, The Little Death is a humorous take on some moderately serious views on modern day sex and gives the more vanilla viewer an insight into the lives of people who could easily be our neighbours. My vote, 8/10. Just watch out for the resident sex offender, Gollywogs can be a frightening distraction.... Marc Tew entertainment.uk.to
