SunnyHello Nice effects though.

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

dbborroughs This is an exploration about anything thats "Beyond Vanilla" sexually. What this means is that anything other than normal sex (either straight or gay) This includes leather,piercing, bondage, spanking and several other things that would probably get me banned from IMDb for mentioning. This is not for kids or anyone who does not have an open mind. This film seeks to explore what turns people on and, perhaps, why.I'm not sure what I think of this film. Certainly its eye opening in its details and (very) graphic nature, but I'm not sure its very good. Essentially a collection of talking heads, with some demonstrations, both graphic and suggestive, it tells us a great deal, but I wasn't sure what it succeeds in what its trying to do. While I know its an attempt to bring to light "the chocolate side" of people's sex drive, it falls down on any notion that these subjects cross all sexual orientations and genders. The problem is that most of the people interviewed seem to be men, there are only handful of women on screen. This under cuts the notion (and reality) that these things are the enjoyed by people of all genders and sexual persuasions.Adding to the film's trouble is the "infomercial" style the film often adopts. While the style was clearly dictated by the circumstances, the film and the subjects are somehow lessened as a result I didn't hate the film, but I didn't find it all that great either. If you're curious, and very open minded and not disturbed by graphic depictions of sex of all varieties (and I do mean all) then you might want to try it, but if you're "vanilla" then you'll want to stay away from this film.

WLAHOTTOP An impressive insight into the psyche of kinkier sex. These interviews seem to really touch the truths people feel and experience, and it's refreshing to hear. Stimulating but not pornographic, informative without judging, and professionally done, I thought it was terrific!!

ericfisteur I saw this film in the festival here in Bruxelles and I was very impressed to learn so much. It is the best film about sex I have ever seen. Now I want to see part 2! The best thing was to learn about techniques and also see the people do it. I recommend this film.

psbill Extremely well shot and edited film detailing various sexual behaviours, some of which, will be considered extreme by many. Very candid......extremely graphic sexually.....and shows in great detail different types of sex which consenting adults participate.As it's title indicates.....the film goes "Beyond Vanilla". This film will be an eye opener for many......will bother some.....but above all us, is an accurate depiction of various sexual practices and very good narratives in regards to why men and women enjoy such sexual activities.Look for this film to be banned in certain areas......so watch it while you can.
