Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Executscan Expected more

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

He said his mother was protective and would defend him and she would go after people using various things as weapons. Who were these people and why did he need protection from Mama? To be honest my opinion of the porn industry wasn't changed by this effort. I just see damaged goods who are making a living from letting us see them mating.

ms_jade_li Up until last night, I'd never heard of Rocco Siffredi. Maybe that's because I don't watch pornography, Italian porn in particular. Last night, after re-watching the final episode of the 3rd season of Peaky Blinders, then deciding not to begin season 4, I browsed netflix for something different. It took at least 15 minutes of indecisiveness before coming across Rocco. The "jacket" is him, standing nude, somewhat like the photo above, but full body, excluding genitalia. Reading the blurb, it says Rocco is, "showcased in this documentary that shadows the legendary performer during his final year in front of the camera." I thought what the heck, this is New Year's Eve, I'm having a few drinks instead of going out and risking car accidents and drunk driving charges, and there should be a fun element to the evening - how do these sound for rationalizations to give myself permission to watch it - so I clicked "play".The film globe-trots between porn sets in Italy and in parts of California. It is very matter-of-fact about the porn industry, where it appears to want to portray all of the females as happy, well-adjusted, and just jumping for the chance to be pounded in every orifice, slapped around, etc. Likewise the porn producers are all gentlemen, would never think of sampling the merchandise, and have noble ideals when it comes to plot lines, etc. That's a conversation for another day. To watch Rocco, those thoughts must be suspended, like when you watch a Star Wars movie.The star of the film, and not just because he's hung like a horse, is Rocco. It must be stated here that there are literally only 2 or 3 shots of Rocco's substantial package. Along with globe-trotting porn sets, it intersperses business with the human being behind the legend. Rocco the husband, the father, the son. His remembrances from childhood that certainly contributed to the career line he chose for himself and has continued until recently. What is impossible to ignore is the humanity behind the appendage. Rocco's personality is what makes him the star that he is.The latter part of the documentary focuses on Rocco's decision to stop making porn movies and who he wants starring with him in his final film. Kelly Stafford, from England, is the chosen one. There's a very interesting discussion that takes place on the road trip with Rocco, his cousin, Gabriele Galeta, who is Rocco's cousin/best friend/director/cameraman, and Kelly on the way to the studio about dominance, submissiveness, etc.There isn't a lot of nudity in Rocco. There are tastefully edited scenes around the porn itself, and I don't remember much, if any, swearing. You might say why watch a movie about a porn star if none of these things are in it? Why? Because Rocco is in almost every shot and Rocco is a God. Or, if not a God, at minimum he's a fallen angel.

bartgirls Hey, this film is just an attempt to justify that a lucky guy who works having sex with the most beautiful girls in the world is suffering and deals with his own personal demons. He turned out to be a prude/conservative! He hid the fact that his wife is Rosa Caracciolo (the filmmakers even changed her name to Rosza, her Hungarian real name), a porn actress who only shot sex scenes with him, while he banged the whole cast of females of the porn flick.We don't see how he starts doing porn. We just find him wishing to shoot his last scene with Kelly, I guess his first co-star, who was a great British performer and decides to come out of retirement to shoot yet more hardcore with him.Actually the best and most entertaining scenes are the discussions Rocco has with his cousin/camera man Gabriel, a guy who wishes to be in Rocco's shoes but, according to him, doesn't have the guts to be in front of the camera.Rocco seems to be a sex addict who suffers from guilt related to the death of his mother and his brother Claudio. If that's the case, he should have looked for professional help and not being part of this pseudo-freudian study.Gosh, the girls are so beautiful and sexy... he's so lucky, it's hard to understand he's going through hell.

jacobjohansson-50807 Well. I do not really know where to start. Unfortunately I was a bit disappointed with this one. I have read several interviews with Rocco, that have built my interest in him, his personal life, his view upon porn and things like that. However... this documentary does not really live up to those expectations.While there are a few, short interviews with Rocco and Gabi on how things started, Roccos relation to his mother, his sexuality, his wife/kids etc - it is still very short, and unfortunately not very personal. And even though that we get to know some weird and personal details they are very few and it does not provide a full picture. Unfortunately the most part of the movie is behind the scene shots from porn scenes with Rocco. Slow motion close ups on moaning faces of people having sex (I could not use the F-word here on IMDb), anxious young girls that are being asked about what they can do on film etc. If I need more of that I could have watched his movies instead. Thats unfortunate! Some positive things though; It makes you realize even more how sad up the porn business is and how a brand (Rocco) can make you do pretty much anything to anyone, without moral consequences. Of course, the girls there are not forced into it - but its still kind of disgusting how this one girl talks about this as "shes in it for the money and to be a star like Rocco". And Rocco gets to ruin her completely and she will not have gotten any further in her carrier! ;) And the few personal interviews with Rocco was also a positive thing. I would have wanted more of that though. More and deeper (thats what she said)!Nah. Barely okay... nothing more. Sorry!
