2/5
A hollow concoction of sex, politics and endless chatter that's just a few camera angles short of hard-core porn. Go to Full Review
Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times 02/18/2011
3/5
Exudes an amiably accessible vibe that softens the edges of its freewheeling explicitness. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

The politics is probably more entertaining than the sex and neither is particularly new and exciting. Go to Full Review

Lloyd S Aug 8 There is nothing more than just casual sex. It's a porn with nonsensical dialogues. Nothing worth to remember or valuable. It seems that the director want free sex to becone popular, instead of paying. Is he tired of paying somehow? See more 08/30/2019 At the very beginning we are welcomed with Wilhelm Reich's quote: "A sexually repressed society will resort to violence". He is an international trader - a speculator who grew up in a typical American family devoted to power and success. She is an illegal immigrant from Nicaragua, and works as a volunteer in a free clinic. When they meet it's a collision of worlds (quite literally) with plenty of sex and conversations about politics, philosophy, and other worldly pleasures. This movie very effectively raises its voice against the culture in which violence is considered to be top-notch entertainment, while sex is taboo and shame. See more 12/27/2012 The title should be NOW AND LAME-ASS. What a colossal piece of rubbish. Sadly, any hardcore porno offers better acting and sex you might actually enjoy. I've seen better chemistry at middle school dances. You'd be well advised to pound a fifth of vodka and pass out for 2 hours rather than watch this movie. It's about 3 grades below Cinemax. Screw you if you go ahead and watch this movie despite my admonishment. See more 09/08/2012 Utterly horrendous. "Disappointing" would be a grave understatement. Watching only half of this movie has pissed me off for twice as long ... I can never get that hour+ of my life back. Straight up colossal waste of time. Those who put this in the "porn" category have sex lives I simply want nothing to do with. See more 07/07/2012 Looking at the reviews they seem to prove the point about a sexually repressed society. Intelligent political touching. See more 07/31/2011 Well, what can I say... sex always sells. See more Read all reviews
