ClearPlay in Action!
With Medium filters, Side Effects will have your ClearPlayer working overtime! Fifteen F words are cleared out and several “S” words. But beware; this film is a steady stream of sexual encounters, both of the straight and lesbian sort, two suicide attempts and a sleepwalking murder including stabbing. A film made for adult only!
Will Side Effects make you need a Psychiatrist?
The moral compass inside me warns against recommending this film to anybody because of all the sexuality. However, I cannot deny that the dark twist that happens near the end made me think that it’s movie of ingenuity! Watch with your filters on MOST and the film will last only 30 minutes but you will catch the general jest and be amazed as justice meets and punches human manipulation in the face!
