This film was surprisingly decent for the subject matter it represented. The story was ok and the acting was passable for the most part.
The film does well at portraying the swinger lifestyle in a fairly accurate way, and the character's journey is somewhat realistic, although one with enough experience can tell when they stretched the drama a bit.
What prevented this from being a great film were some poor writing choices after the climax of the film. The acting from the main protagonist did not sell the gravity of the situation. For anyone who is in the lifestyle, some of the character decisions in the film will be frustrating to watch. There was a missed opportunity here but I appreciated that the writers really left the message up to the viewer to interpret.
What really saves this film are the characters. They are interesting to look at and observe as they end up in some very sexy and risque circumstances. The first act was very well directed and you could really feel the tension building. Again things seem to get a little weird towards the end of the second act which had me scratching my head.
I would recommend this film to anyone who is interested in seeing a portrayal of a non monogamous subculture.

It is interesting that this film has the word swinger in it, but this film is a gross representation of actual swinging culture.
That is a shame, because the film tries to be a comedy and really succeeds in that in the first act. But the situations and actions of the characters in this film do not seem to reflect anything relatable when it comes to swinging. This is odd because some of the actual situations that happen in the swinger lifestyle are much more hilarious than any of the events that happen in the movie. This film may not have been made for people familiar with the swinger lifestyle, and that is ok. But if the swinging bits could be taken out of the story without changing much, maybe you should not have it in there. The film could have done without it.
The films 3rd act has a few moments of heart that really shows you that grown adults with marital experience had some input in the screenplay. But the film cant seem to help throwing you a curve ball that makes you question what genre this film even belongs in.
The ending was horrible, and most of the characters did not have much of a resolution that the viewers could get behind.
Don't waste your time with this one.
