Presently, Jackson (Matthew James) is not having the time of his
life: His career as an artist fails to take off, his job in customer
service is too obviously dead end for him to gloss over it, and his
girlfriend, Harmony (Sadie Katz), has only recently moved out of town, and
currently alternates between not answering his calls and paying him
surprise visits for some quick sex. Jackson is looking for something
that lifts his spirits, but he soon has to learn it's more than just sex
... but his attempts at - in the fake world of LA, of all places - dating
for real go bad when one girl proves to be a downright pervert, another
surprises him with a gangbang, and so on. Ultimately, Harmony calls him
to get her out of a jam, and he really drives over to rescue her ... not
that she needs any rescue, but he still ends up with a broken nose. For a
time then - and in a motel room -, Jackson and Harmony are the happiest
couple on the planet, they even talk about marriage ... but how long will
it last? Nipples & Palm Trees looks, feels and plays
like the evil twin of your typical sanitized Hollywood-style romantic
comedy: It's naughty, it's dirty, it's sleazy, it's raunchy, it uses
strong language, is unapologetic about its alcohol, drug and nicotine use
... and it also feels so - well, real. That's basically because it tells a
story one can relate to, honsetly talks about the feelings and failings in
everybody's love life, doesn't force a happy ending upon the audience, and
while many a scene (like the surprise gangbang) are most certainly
exaggerated, they never feel moronic. This all is also reflected on a
directorial level: The camera rarely shies away from anything but isn't
too blunt in approach either, does not go for cheap sight gags that could
distract from the story, and doesn't try to take over the narrative with
extreme imagery the script certainly might evoke. In all, if more
romantic comedies were like this, I could become a fan after all!
