How does the Tomatometer work Help Icon

Reviews Counted:68

Fresh:9

Rotten:59

Average Rating:3.2/10

Consensus: The sex jokes in Whipped are tiresomely vulgar and unfunny. Critics also condemn the movie as cynical and mean-spirited, with no likable characters.

Runtime: 85 mins

Genre: Comedies

Box Office: $2,729,625

Studly Wall Streeter Brad (Brian Van Holt), artsy downtowner Zeke (Zorie Barber), and effeminate, compulsively self-pleasuring Jonathan (Jonathan Abrams) are three New York friends who meet once a week at their favorite Gotham diner to frankly discuss their most recent sexual conquests. Things get a bit stressful for the three college pals--all in their twenties--when, after confessing to each other that they have each met the woman who can stop them from womanizing, they discover that they have all been seduced by the same woman. She is Mia (Amanda Peet), a formidable beauty who can be as sexually casual as any man she meets. The three men attempt to work out a solution for their problem. Meanwhile, the pathetic fourth member of their gang, married and overweight Eric (Judah Domke), becomes their romantic advisor. Obviously influenced by the vulgar-chic style of movies that began with THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY, Cohen's tale spares no one and leaves no bodily secretion unrevealed as it takes a humorous look at dating in the big city and the casualties that are often its result. Using New York locations to good effect, director Cohen achieves a look that is as raw as the humor on display. [More]

This movie was made by a harrowingly untalented filmmaker, and never comes close to an authentic laugh or a recognizable human being.

Manages to move along rather nicely, despite a paper-thin premise and the overriding swagger of its cliched twenty-something males who think that they are God's gift to women.

There has to be something -- anything -- redeemable about the men being ridiculed, and these numskulls are nothing but insufferable.

Whipped is amusing and sometimes hip, particularly if you have absolutely no knowledge or understanding of men or women.

Some of the unpleasant moments are funny, some not, but it isn't realistic enough to have an impact and not stylish enough to be seductive even at its most amusing.

Cohen's direction is as crude and cramped as his thinking. Imagine a cheesy community theater devoted to dramatizing bathroom graffiti.

There is no character development; these guys are all adolescent libido and nothing else. Cohen's writing never delivers anything resembling real human interaction or connection.

A mean and draining movie, and poorly crafted to boot.

The movie shifts so quickly into cliché, and then morphs into a poorly conceived and bleakly misanthropic morality tale.

It isn't every sex comedy that leaves you needing a cold shower; rarer still is the sex comedy that leaves you desperate for a hot one.

It's not only the structural and visual repetition that's annoying (they always meet in the same booth and the camera set-ups are all the same), it's also the characters' lack of ... development.

A caustic, raunchy, often hilarious examination of how men use women, and how easy it is for a determined female to do the same to a passel of self-centered males.

The trouble with Whipped isn't that its characters are dirty mouthed horndog jerks -- it's that they're phony dirty mouthed horndog jerks.

The dirty talk is so painfully forced and emphatic it lacks any comic spontaneity.

Lots of laughs, interesting characters and plenty of dirty detailed insight into the world of 'dating.'
