There is a line between soft porn and an art film with erotic scenes. It is not a thin line. If Julio Medem wanted to show in “Room in Rome” the foolishness of the one night, the escape from a tough decision by using an erotic night as a diversion, the sudden closeness one may experience with a total stranger under some circumstances (to name a few cases), he certainly failed in doing so. The dialogues, the script, the underlying music provided a cheap feeling which spoiled completely the initial five-minute impression of the film. “Sex and Lucia” of his, was a good film. This is a very bad one. Avoid it!
My rating: 02/10
