Interesteg What makes it different from others?

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

tony smith Unfortunately for you I couldn't care less about this film so this won't be my usual high quality critique of a piece, but I'll be frank.It's some pseudo- faux emotional nonsense that attempts to glorify, and normalise behaviours which are inherently moronic, childish and self centred and sell it to the masses as something really 'good' for the models who've found their niche and super wonderful for the poor souls (the men) on the cam sites looking for arousal/companionship.In reality the dynamic is simple, Women and Men are struggling to survive in this economy, and women have something that is in demand, it's called a vagina. Speaking candidly, as a Man myself, I have no desire / demand for the specimens portrayed in the Film and personally when I tried a site once I found all of the humans on there to be repugnant, unintelligible and patronising to men, seemingly placating them just for money. This of course is fine, as it's the whole point, but what bothered me is the facade that they cared and are super nice and kind people who would behave similarly when face to face with these, let's face it, less than hunky men *I forget my other point, but another interesting component here, is one of taking advantage, that is to say, of ugly/fat/damaged men with more money than sense. You can clearly see this with the mentally challenged chubby chasers and so on, where, in any sane reality, the women who are ugly/ clinically obese, would never receive such financial rewards for flopping around like hippos in front of a camera. That said, the pretty one's are equally a waste of space. In it's entirety, this is a dangerous economy which leads to no tangible productivity for our society and transfers usable, workable wealth (i.e cash/tokens) to the opposite gender only to support the globalised beauty industry.Forgive me, the fake benevolence of the portrayal of these women and their fight for economic independence has turned my brain into a microwaved potato, so, admittedly, I have digressed beyond my review of just the entertainment value.I will say though that the 'deep' sound track is not warranted for this movie. All it is, is a poorly made, albeit HD short peak into the lives of some uneducated and economically useless people who take advantage of the droves of stupid/poor/sick/lonely/sad/unmarried/married men who are a slave to their biological urges.Would women think so favourably if the tables were turned? I doubt it.All being said, and the terrible cinematography with its creepy slow pan and zoom thing, there are a few tid bits of interesting and perhaps not commonly known things about 'camming' but I must say I find it arrogant and offensive that so many of the cam girlz both in the movie and out of it pretend like they are there for freindship, but when they talk highly about the positives of this industry the top of their list is always the freedom they get, the money, the lax working hours, the lifestyle, not having a boss, and doing whatever the hell they want because they have boobs.

GoneWithTheTwins It begins with a woman in a sexualized mime getup, acting out a striptease to a webcam, as if to show a double-layered piece of erotica – one for provoking a question of symbolization and one for simple visual stimulation. In many ways, the documentary as a whole serves a correspondingly dual purpose. By showing clips of nudity, the film represents pornographic input; by supplementing this footage with voice-over narration and commentary by the instigants, it becomes an examination of the mentality and motivation behind the acts themselves.Here, "camming" is basically performing any intimate deed live on the internet, while potentially thousands of subscribers watch the routines. Nudity is almost always a factor – though the girlfriend/companionship-only angle supposedly makes up a percentage of the girls' incomes. The clientele is mostly too shy to type a response on their computers, although more adventurous users type requests and transmissions and interact as if they're involved in a substantive relationship. The women on film insist that they're real, normal, intelligent, empowered, and certainly not exploited. They're rendering services, creating a fantasy, and getting paid. At the very least, they're more than comfortable with their bodies.Apparently, no one is getting hurt. But, of course, that's the most controversial aspect: is someone involved being abused or exploited? Or is this all genuinely harmless? As long as they're doing it by their own design and desire, what's the problem? Surely, those that partook in "Cam Girlz" did so of their own volition (not everyone in the industry is a product of emotional and sexual abuse), but decidedly more nefarious entities and victims certainly populate the world of monetized sex streams – though that is not covered (or of concern) in the scope of this documentary."The most important thing is to be online." Intriguingly, the element of marketing is addressed, with the many subjects considering their initiatives entirely entrepreneurial. The entertainment value, a knowledge of the audience, and an understanding of the product are crucial components of the business. Most of the girls wish to fill a niche to avoid dullness; apparently, boring sex scenarios are of less value. Most revelatory are the cammers' appreciation for being their own bosses and finding financial success that surpasses that of more customary jobs. $75,000 a month for the top performing models is nothing to scoff at; obviously, sex sells. And there is also a surprisingly expansive array of performers, running the gamut of body types and ages and even the wildness of the programs. One in particular involves elaborate costumes and creepy ventriloquist puppet interactions.Most of the footage is snippets of the shows, which, when devoid of narration, are mere sexual images (pole-dancing, masturbation, showering, fondling) for the sake of sexual images. This will, undoubtedly, prevent "Cam Girlz" from being a film that can reach a wide audience. Furthermore, the plodding pacing, with its focus on visuals over a more philosophical debate on the topic, diminishes the potential for a truly inspirational analyzation. Few breakthroughs or eye-opening viewpoints are scrutinized, succumbing instead to generally trivial blurbs of individual ideals on achievement and emancipation from the entry-level employment rat race.Eventually, the alternating shots of naked women curiously gives way to a few male users, who admit that watching cam girls builds confidence, substitutes for communications at the typical bar or strip club, and helps them explore their sexuality. One man misguidedly believes he's accruing genuine, intimate connections. That is, sadly, the major fallacy. For the girl, it's an act, a chiefly invented personality; they're paid to be enthusiastic about their erotic endeavors. In a real life situation, they'd certainly behave differently. The degree of anonymity (as evidenced by suggestive screen names), as long as it exists, is the only protection – and also the catalyst for more dangerous follow-ups. Yet this predicament is only touched upon by a single model, with just a couple of sentences."You have to have a lot of self confidence." Obviously, online sex shows are still a taboo topic. The girls here attribute this to a lack of communication and education about sex in general. Promiscuity is shunned and intercourse is demonized; open-mindedness is a difficult concept to propagate, especially when old-fashioned traditions and religion still immoderately dictate the forms of acceptable professions. It's an amusing subject, but executed with a distinct lifelessness, a lack of technical and editing verve, a tonal flatness, and a failure to movingly illustrate the various personas that frequent the picture. It's commendably beyond (quite graphically) the uninspired standard of talking heads, but it's nevertheless wanting for depth and potency, regardless of the compelling nature of the issue.

kurgan-3 If you are interested in getting a glimpse into the real lives of Cam models, this is the best film out there. The ladies are real people, and the connections that they make are not just binary code.This documentary does a great job of showing a wide variety of models with differing views and goals, but they are very human, and no longer can people think that they are just material to "get off" to, nor are they blow up dolls or corner store magazines that move.The guys are also surprising. They are not just single minded perverts seeking the thrills of prurient internet content (at least not all of them).This is a community of good people with honest, forward thinking goals who happen to share a open minded attitude. Highly recommended for education in general. Note: adult material.

Evil Good Girl I am a sex blogger and I personally have watched a couple of documentaries in the UK about webcam girls, one on BBC THREE and one on Channel 5. Both of which were quite light hearted and didn't really show any true character from these girls. Cam Girlz however has really touched me and differed itself from the rest.Unlike the others, this documentary featured girls from all kinds of background, as well as their appearances, you would see the usual slim pretty girls, but it also gave a voice from the big and beautiful girls, and even mature ladies. It just goes to show that there isn't just one type of girls the guys want to see, each and every variety of girls has an audience for. You can be the best looking girl in the world but if your personality doesn't shine through then no one will want to watch you on cam.I adored the truth from this documentary it portrayed, that is being a cam girl is not a taboo as the society might deemed as. The girls are totally being themselves online and that is the true pleasure for the viewers. Often when you think that it is the viewers that are in control of a webcam sex show, but it is actually always the girls that are in control, always.In the space of just over an hour the film featured a total of 38 girls, often going back and forth from one to another explaining how they got into camming and how it has affected their lives comparing to pre-cam. All of the cam girls suggested that it was something they loved to do, not having to work for someone and being creative on camera to please people all over the world.While the documentary managed to focus the attention on the cam girls, it also shed a light on the guys who pay to watch these girls, and it's not some dark grim life one might expect, these are happy-go-lucky guys who just enjoy the women's company online, instead of having to be a lonely weirdo who hangs around in bars. This really fascinated me when comparing to the other documentaries where you only saw one side of the camera.I felt that the entire film wanted to show the viewers expressing sexually online in front of a camera is completely normal and should not be frowned upon in this day and age. The cam girls industry can only now grow with the technology, wherever that might take it to, hologram girls? Who knows.Credit must go to Sean Dunne for directing this film, which he has done a superb job of. Every camera angle was at the right place, with the perfect lighting and sound. It was one of those films that you didn't want it to end so soon.
