What to know

critics consensus

With neither the conviction to embrace its smutty premise nor enough laughs to function as a worthwhile rom-com, the flaccid Sex Tape suffers from cinematic impotence. Read critic reviews

Movie Info

When Annie (Cameron Diaz) and Jay (Jason Segel) first meet, they have an instant and intense romantic connection. However, 10 years and two children later, the flames of passion have dimmed to dull embers. To bring back the spark, the couple decide to record themselves trying out every position in "The Joy of Sex," which seems like a great idea at the time -- until they discover that their private recording has gone public via the Internet.

Audience Reviews for Sex Tape

  • Jan 11, 2016
    In a film called "Sex Tape" an angry German Shepherd nearly steals the movie. That just is wrong. Rob Lowe does some interesting work.

    Great cast, but the storyline is sentimental and very odd. I don't feel they embraced the film they were attempting to make. This could have been one of the funniest films, but they have a storyline that is completely wrong for the film. Segel and Diaz are ultimately wasted in the lead and the strong support cast attempt a little, but the material is quite weak. I would give this one a miss. 08/05/2019

    It was okay. Not as bad as the reviews suggest. Idea was funny, though a bit thin (would you really give your postman an iPad and share all your content with him?!). It definitely has its faults and huge plot holes, but actually it was okay to watch once.

    Horrendously awful, Sex Tape is a juvenile piece of trash. When a young married couple tries to spice up their sex life by making a sex tape with their iPad it accidentally gets uploaded to all their friends. Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel give terrible performances, and their comic delivery is almost painful to watch. Plus, the humor is incredibly obvious and low-brow. Despite its salacious title, Sex Tape is just a silly low-brow comedy with no taste.
