Summary: Mimi Rogers.... wow....
Review: A so unreal plot with senseless flashbacks. But Mimi Roger's bod rules -- no question about it. Don't bother about her acting (or lack thereof). Anybody who's interested in mature ladies' beauty just can't miss this one.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: boring
Review: After viewing this film I have no idea what the plot was about except a chance for Mimi Rogers to be naked throughout a film. She is actually quite hefty in this movie and I was surprised to see that. The film is about a middle-aged rich woman whose regular massage therapist sends in a replacement for himself. The entire film is them talking while the massage is going on with short flashbacks on events in both their lives. Very boring if you need more than skin to keep you interested in a film.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Watch it with the sound off...
Review: and be prepared to fast forward a lot. A naked Mimi Rogers directed by Nicolas Roeg sounded like an unbeatable combination, but their efforts are sabotaged by a terrible script. The two leads spend the entire film spouting pretentious banalities without any final payoff, neither erotic nor intellectual. This farrago gets three stars only for Rogers' nude scenes, although once her pale, voluptuous flesh is covered with massage oil, it unfortunately reminded me of a side of North Carolina barbecued pork!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bad beyond belief
Review: Any way you look at this, it's a complete letdown. The plot is idiotic. The nudity is dull, poorly photographed and so unflattering that there isn't a single exciting moment.

What were they thinking?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: HOT? NOT!
Review: Being a fan of Mimi Rogers and Bryan Brown (ok, and I wanted to see Mimi naked) I couldn't wait to watch this movie. Now, I can't wait to give it away. Yes, Mimi is naked in much of the film, but there is a total lack of eroticism. Unless you don't get out much, or even turn on your tv, for that matter, I don't see how anyone could find this to be a turn on. As for the acting, writing, directing, camera work, etc....well, it was made for cable (or direct to video, not sure which) and it shows

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent, subtle drama.
Review: Bryan Brown and Mimi Rogers pull off a challenging script with great skill. True thespians, they pull the viewer in to their conversations. One is intrigued by their life stories and that it has lead to these relaxing massage sessions. A fresh, enjoyable experience.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surprise!
Review: Ever rent or buy a movie for one reason, but end up having the film pleasantly surprise you for other reasons? That's what happened w/me when I bought FULL BODY MASSAGE.

Granted, the primary reason most people (like me!) are going to purchase this movie is the implication that Mimi Rogers is going to be naked thru most of it. Not to worry, the movie delivers in this aspect. I HATE it when some flicks have the promise of being saturated with nudity, but come to find out there is maybe a grand total of 5 seconds worth in the entire film. That's not the case with this movie.

Rogers has a unique, exotic elegance. Hers' is not the type of beauty that you will find on a bikini poster. Rather, her appearance has a much more serene and mysterious flavor to it. This, combined with the fact that she is middle-aged, give this production a nice mature (not in the sexual sense), almost sophisticated tenor.

The other major character is played by the Australian actor Bryan Brown. He doesn't seem to do too many roles, but he does pop up every now and again. He is a massage therapist who "sits in" for the normal therapist of Rogers' character. His accent is a nice touch, although I did get a bit tired of him pronouncing massage as "mAssage" (with a long A sound).

What is really refreshing about this film, however, is that it truly tells the story about both characters. It also delves into the various aspects, histories and techniques of massage therapy. Instead of being just a film for a male audience, I would argue that it is a borderline date movie. There's a lot more substance to it than you may think. The incidental music is also very fitting, giving the film an overall soft-jazz feel.

The only criticism I have is that Rogers' character only pays the masseuse $100 when its all over. Then, she is told, $100 is too much. That's an absurdly low cost. First, given all of the myriad techniques that he did, he must have been there for hours. I know that $100 won't even get you a HALF hour at some of the most respectable massage parlors. Second, it would cost a whole lot more than that for the masseuse to come & set up shop at your home (which was the case here). Third, given the fact that Roger's character lives in a bona-fide mansion & drives a brand new Mercedes, it is difficult to fathom her inviting bargain-basement massage therapists into her home.

All that aside, this is not just a good erotic movie, but is a genuinely good movie, period. If you're a fan of Mimi Rogers, Bryan Brown and / or full body massages, this one is a can't miss.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: One Star For Each of Them...
Review: I bought this for the same reason anyone in their right mind would buy it...Mimi Rogers naked!!...enough said...Right?... Well not quite...Mimi is in fact quite naked throughout, however she is also quite overweight and though she carries it mildly well, you'd think that a professional hollywood actress such as Ms. Rogers would have left the chocolate out of her preperations for a movie that she would be butt naked throughout...If you're buying this for the story then let me recommend you watch any worthless late night drama offered by your local cable company because besides Mimi getting naked and rubbed down by some old guy with thinning hair, there is no plot. I agree with the person who only wished Ms. Rogers made this movie ten years earlier, maybe even twenty, because the years not spent in the gym were obviously years spent close to the frig for this aging beauty. She's still probably one of the top ten sexiest women in her age group, but don't buy this one unless you're proud to be the guy who always takes home the big girls from the bar.
