panCDCA If you want a movie that is just pure escapism then it is a very good movie. The acting isn't bad, the 2 actresses seem to have chemistry and just are having fun with the movie. In other words, it doesn't seem they were forced together to do a job and behind the scenes hated each other. I have seen far worse acting. When an actor can make you forget about reality and care about the character, then they are good at what they do. BOTH actresses have that ability in this movie.As for nudity, IF that is all you truly want look elsewhere. This is a simple love story and very realistic. As a straight man, it made me think and appreciate women more.

rattenkonigin So this love story happens over a weekend. I mean there is nothing wrong with a story about love at first sight but this just felt really forced. So the browned haired woman( can't remember her name) moved into her bosses'guest house and immediately starts to have really private conversations with her bosses's daughter, the blond hair goth girl( again cannot recall her name). Not only that, she also showers in front of her. This in itself would be inappropriate but okay..... Then they film each other for hours with Canon hand-held cameras. Which could have been a nice idea and a creative way to save money, if it was done in a better way. But they just keep talking and talking, i think they told the actors to just improvise. This only works, if you have really good actors( will come back to this later). Then they have sex but they way they have sex is the funniest part of the whole movie. They are portraying this " passionate love making" but both of them constantly make sure, that you cannot see their nipples. Followed by more sex and a hilarious scene with the ex boyfriend. Later they go to concert and i wonder if the people that made this movie, have ever been to a concert. The audience sites down listens, nod( because they approve of this great music!!) and only once the music stop, will they applause and continue talking. Rock n'Roll!!!They get a tattoo and the blond goth girl that already has a Tattoo ask, if it hurts. She later sings a terrible song, that goes on for hours .Oh yeah and after that great and necessary song, they have sex. The dad comes back and goes into the guesthouse to surprise the brown hair girl with a breakfast and here is the shocking twist, the dad and the brown hair girl had a one night stand! What? What? This makes no sense! A) You are not suspicious at all that ONS lets you work for his company and that he lets you life in his guesthouse which is on his property B) okay let's imagine that the brown hair girl is really naive, then why don't you try to keep a distance from his daughter? She never tried to keep a distance. She is the one showering in front of her, she is the one telling her that she think is cute. You never notices that she was in a moral dilemma C) let's even ignore this fact and imagine that the brown hair lady forgot about everything that happened. The dad still knows. He is a successful business man so he needs to be good in planning. So he hired his ONS let her live in his guesthouse which is on the property because he thinks that he still has a shoot with her. While a little over the top, still somehow makes sense. What dosen't make sense is, that he goes on a business trip when she arrives. Why didn't't he invite her to the business trip. He is more likely to hit that in a hotel room then in house with his daughter around. I mean yeah might have been strange, but not as strange as having your new employee spend a weekend with your 18 year old daughter. Especially if you want to seduce her!! That story makes no logical sense, the characters motivation even less. Especially as most of it, happens over a weekend. Acting: Boyfriend: I don't know if he was suppose to have such a poor line delivery and over the top acting or if this was just poor acting. If it was on purpose, kudos to the actor. You really succeeded in pretending to be a terrible character. Blond Goth Girl: She was better then the brown hair girl but that is not saying a lot. i think that this is what 50 year old people think a teenager behaves like. Furthermore, i don't want to discourage anyone but maybe you shouldn't' consider a career in singing and/ or acting. Brown Hair Girl: Don't look directly at the the camera!! So many times when she was suppose to be looking at the her partner, she is looking directly at the camera. Like staring at it. Also when she had her dramatic scene at the end( the one you can see her nipples), at least try to cry, if you can't then hide your face in your hands so it looks as if you are crying. Anything besides what she did. Dad: Just terribleCameraI am not a big expert on Camera work. I don't care if people use certain angles, zoom out or in too much but even i notices that the camera work sucked. In the beginning it looks okay but sometimes it looks like someone was filming it on their own home video camera. This excludes the scenes, where the two ladies were filming each other. Especially the shower scene is shot in a really wired angle. It appears that the two woman were in two different rooms. They could have shot the scene in two different locations which is fine if the scene wasn't't suppose to take place in the same room to build erotic tension. So in conclusion, this movie isn't good and i am not going to give it a pass because it is a lGBT movie and because of the low budget.A low budget has no impact on the plot or the acting. The movie had potential but sometimes a good idea isn't enough.PS: You do see nipples 10 minutes before the end.

complications123 There are worse films out there I suppose, but where "The Guest House" falters is not its production values or low budget, but the fact that the love story between the two characters is so empty and their affection is so forced.I don't know if these women were uncomfortable with the homosexual aspect, if their acting was just *that* bad, or if the director had an unnatural vision of what women in love really looked like. They would go from sweet nothings to forceful, aggressive making out; they would be having a random conversation about life and suddenly one of them would pounce on the other...lesbians or not, *people* don't do this. There was zero sensuality during any given encounter. No tenderness no softness, no sweetness. It was more like drunken lust, but even all the a** grabbing and rough kissing looked awkward and struck me as that of rushed, groping teenagers. The end result comes off as attempt at eye candy under the guise of of male's vision of what two women look like. Now I *might* could suspend belief long enough when it came to this weird forced eroticism if the rest of the story had been convincing...but it isn't. Apart from the the father, there is absolutely NOTHING driving the plot. These girls fall in love with each other in a complete vacuum. There are no friends around, no jobs to go to, no competition for affection, and no parents aside from the last few minutes. Nothing really happens - there's nothing to drive their relationship forward or test their limits or to develop them as characters that we can care about, relate to, and understand. Really, how much of a story is there about two people falling in love who are almost completely cut off from the outside world?About the time that the film would've gotten interesting, when the couple hits their "speed bump" in the form of dad, we cut a few months later, gloss over it, and everything's fine. Even when the film gives us conflict, we don't really get any.The dialog is pretty bad too, and this ties back into nothing much of any interest occurring. The writers try to give the girls character through these long winded conversations amounting to "what's your favorite color" for half the film which is painful to listen to. After some skin we move over to mostly endless pillow talk. And it never lets up. These ladies communicate through the most banal remarks about how much they love other. What they sound like are, like the sex scenes, uncomfortable teens. They don't really know each other so they make nervous small talk that is unbearable.And so we have what might look like a sweet little love story that ultimately has very little humanity left in it. We don't know the characters, their story happens outside of real life, and there's just nothing for the audience to connect with. A real love story, between 2 people of any sex, should be able to speak to anybody (except perhaps the severely homo or heterophobic) because we're able to relate to how they get to know each other and their search for happiness. But that vibe just isn't here. There is nothing to hang on to, and what's left in its stead is almost impossible to sit through.

ering459 The Guest House is not, by any stretch of imagination, a "good movie." However, it is an enjoyable, easy to watch romp in lesbian fantasy-land. If you are looking for flowing dialog, lack of cliché's, though- provoking storyline conflict, then this film is not for you. However, if you would like to check out of the real world for a while, and watch two beautiful women fall in love Romeo and Juliet style (minus the suicides, plus the sensual sex scenes) then by all means, this film is worth your time. Sure the plot is predictable. Sure the dialog is a little clichéd. And I'll admit, the giggles are a little annoying. But sometimes, that's all you want in a movie, right?
