Body Shots

Tonight it's for sex. Tomorrow it's for real.

Distributed by

Entertainment in Video



Body Shots plays out one night in the lives of eight twenty-somethings, four guys and four girls. Wild things demand wild times and the heated atmosphere of a nightclub is what draws them when it's the weekend. Entrance is free since blonde bombshell Whitney (Emily Procter) works there.

In the boys camp are best friends Shawn (Brad Rowe) and Rick (the 'Chandler'-ish Sean Patrick Flanery), their $5 million football star mate Penorisi (Jerry O'Connell) and office nerd Trent (Ron Livingston). The other side contains the aforementioned Whitney, brunettes Emma (Sybil Temchen) and Jane (Amanda Peet), plus blonde, mini-skirted Sara (Tara Reid).

Within 30 minutes of the film, their night of drunken debauchery and talking-to-camera appears to be over, but that's where the film really begins since the night's proceedings are displayed in flashback showing where each guy got to and how far they made it with the ladies, although one of them takes things way too far.


Once again EiV have given us a superb picture. It's anamorphic, is in the original 2.35:1 widescreen ratio. Outdoor sceens are bright and clean, while the nightclub is rich with deep blue colour, broken up with bright white circles as the drinks dollies arrive with the booze-shot trays. The average bitrate is a middling 5.4Mb/s, briefly peaking over 8Mb/s.

We've also been blessed with a Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack. Thumping sounds come alive in the disco, while dialogue remains clear, even during the vox pops filmed while the crazy kids are out and about.


Extras :

Chapters :

Oh dear, back to normal. Just 12 chapters and they're all around an hour ahead of themselves completely with inaccurate timing. Why don't they just drop that 'feature' ?

Languages and Subtitles :

English Dolby Digital 5.1 sound and subtitles in the same language.

And there's more... :

A two-minute Trailer in anamorphic 16:9 and DD5.1 sound, plus Cast and Crew filmographies for most of the cast members and the director Michael Cristofer.

Menu :

Animated with clips and music from the film. Rather atmospheric and well put-together.


Overall, although date-rape is something that unfortunately happens in society, it puts a dent on what I thought was going to be a non-stop comedy, so makes it less a film that you'd want to watch several times (like Go) and more a rental recommendation.
