This was the first of the videos that started a trend of sex education videos in the early 1990s . I guess the idea behind it was for liberated women to go into a high street store and buy it without any type of guilt or inhibition , but no doubt the main buyer market was teenage boys and dirty old men
THE LOVERS GUIDE is groundbreaking in the fact that it publicised that the couples involved were real life partners but this is slightly dishonest , yes the main couple featured Wendy and her husband were indeed a real life couple who'd been married several years but there was some public controversy that at least one of the couples Kathryn ( The gorgeous brunette ) and Marino ( The well buffed geezer with a ponytail ) had never met one another until they appeared on set where they had unprotected sex for the camera . For a video that self righteously dedicates segments to safe sex it is rather hypocritical
Seeing as it's for education purposes and not pornography as such there's limits as to what can be shown but as a sex education video it's not uninformative though I doubt if you'll be gasping " I never knew that "
As a footnote the main couple featured became something of sexual problem agony aunts in the British press - Until it was revealed that Wendy's husband had a serious heart condition which put a stop to sex . I almost felt sorry for this couple who confessed that they used to make love as often as ten times a day but now couldn't make love once a day because it was too dangerous . My small amount of sympathy soon vanished when shortly afterwards the couple split up and raced off to the gutter press in order to dish the dirt on one another to the highest bidder .
极尽讽刺之能事。一位“竭心尽力”将公司打造成大家庭的老板，打着关心的幌子做着操纵他人的行为，一切努力都是出于自身利益。天秤雕塑的隐喻很妙，资本主义下哪有真正的公平，维持平衡的其实是藏在天秤下的那一颗子弹。
哈维尔巴登yyds，和骚潘去年都奉献出了职业生涯又一个高峰，如果戈雅奖的最佳女主是骚潘就好了
可看性还是挺强的，是那种轻喜剧的讽刺手法。整个故事很连贯，从头到尾，所有事情都串联在了一起，一个看似其乐融融的天秤厂其实在老板的龌龊手段下补了一个又一个窟窿。哪有老板和员工如父如友的企业，只有利益相互纠葛取得双赢的企业。被电焊戴耳机涨了知识，我见过的厂子再吵也没有给人戴降噪耳机的。
边看边想这跟魔幻时刻也太像了吧，果然在片尾看到是改编，但看完我只想再看一遍原片。那种扮演好儿子的煽情戏码真的太多余了。
哈哈哈，说是好老板，其实从头到尾讲述的是一个以为能够摆平一切的骄傲老男人，看似是迎接检查，其实只不过是预示着中年危机的来临，工厂门前的天平，就是一个生活状态的暗喻，突然出现的年轻女孩就是那一只小鸟吧，又或者是歇斯底里的被裁员工？婚姻破裂的老友兼副手？还是尽心尽力却又命运多舛的工人父子？这种不平衡令人不安，去试图人为干预也无济于事，迎检那天美好的一切都犹如那个看似平衡的天平，托盘地下残者子弹，那貌似好老板的伪君子，底下有藏着些什么呢？
开心麻花最成功的地方也是最大的局限性就是没有现实感，只能讲一个虚化背景的逻辑构建，核心内容往往是身份的突变，让人物在莫名其妙中二次投胎，角色细节靠周星驰的小人物的不自知，风格靠三谷幸喜的场域构造，在各种借势拼贴中完成好笑的自洽。这没什么不好，但也不可能再往前走一步了。酒吧那场戏以后不好笑，对前面笑点的反复回收再利用，比较顺拐了。不过还是简单有效，合格的喜剧。

意犹未尽…现在的喜剧，无论电影还是小品，能把故事讲圆就不错了，更别说把包袱设计得自然又奏效，密度高的情况下还每个都爆响，一点不尬，太难得了！（此处拉踩春晚）开心双壁闫彭合作，质量真是啥时都放心~主创们爱电影的心满溢出来，特意模糊了时代背景，方便致敬各种中外经典影片，雨中曲、教父、赌神…用光、造型、布景等~被结尾触动：成功只是比不成功多坚持一次！呼应戏里戏外男主和演员的经历：绿叶多年，第一次演男主，无论戏里戏外都很成功！ps.开始以为哈维是影射好莱坞前大佬哈维~结尾又感觉不是，但过程中很多梗又很像~
资本家必然的黑化却通过一个巧合事件完成，整个过程就缺乏了足够的说服力，作为讽刺文本的力度显然也就弱了很多，不过在中国观众看来外国人怎么写这种故事，也都太小儿科了
想天平永远平衡关键时刻还是需要一些必要手段的…片子节奏挺慢的，哈维尔巴登演的老板增色不少，喜欢片子里的一些黑色幽默~3.5
但…这也算电影？
作品采取黑色喜剧讽刺的手法，反应富豪对员工的压榨干涉已经到了无所不用其极的地步。
讽刺的恰到好处，有时天平需要施点伎俩才能平衡。
笑死了，演得太好了。骨子里市侩精明虚伪，表面上良善大度豁达，渣啊。子弹梗简直就是《资本论》的镜头解读。
你的老板我的老板好像都一样，喜欢当爹喜欢睡人喜欢锃光瓦亮的虚荣。
有几个桥段比较有趣，但这部作品实在不像是部电影，无论从故事、镜头还是布景都更像是舞台剧质感。故事逻辑与推进不到位，强行煽情也没什么必要。如果不为剧情只是为了单纯笑笑的话这部电影还算OK，如果在乎剧情那就算了。
凡事都是相对，哪有绝对的好老板。看你和谁比了……
所幸马丽在，又冷又飒，像把靓丽的尖刀。她的状态和其他人不一样。他们依然无脑插科打诨，她则冷嘲热讽动作迅猛，也只有她在这部黑色幽默与开心麻花的杂交产物中是圆融的。
资本主义国家老板遇到的事在这儿都不算事儿
标准讽刺小品，老梗新拍，好人坏人都虚伪，有的结果来得早，有的结果来得迟。巴登这种角色随便演。
