Critics Consensus

A bizarre sex comedy full of meandering subplots, some occasional wit, and, unfortunately, not a whole lot of funny jokes.

Elektra Luxx has its moments, but the overriding reaction is "Why?" Not only did its predecessor not merit a sequel by anyone's standards, but this is a forgettable film briefly buoyed by lines and energetic performances.

Rated: C+

Austin Chronicle

An odd but often laugh-out-loud funny mix of absurdist humor, raunchy backstories, and genuine pathos.

Rated: 3/5

Not that there's a lot of substance here in the first place. Gutierrez's movie is superficial and slick in most respects, and if not for its amazing cast of veteran and up-and-coming character actors I don't there would be much here to talk about.

Rated: 2.5/4

From the Front Row

An awful, incomprehensible mess that neither titillates or amuses. And for a comedy about porn, that's a fatal combination.

Rated: .5/4

The sum total is a black hole of blinding pain.

Writer/director Sebastian Gutierrez is all over the map with a bizarre multi-character drama that never really clicks.

Rated: 1/4

Not sure why it got such a low rating. The cast is pretty strong, full of reputable actors, with the script humourous and well played; it had me chuckling outloud several times. And even though the story is a bit odd, it had solid moments of lucidity and punch.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

If this movie is food it will be week old mystey meatballs, microwaved over and over and over again over the course of said week but still ends up soggy and cold in the middle. I wasnt able to take anything from it except waste my goddamn time or maybe some startled giggle from the dumb lesbian pornstar, 'sharpest stool in the box' haha you get half a star for that cause i love poo jokes
