Opie (James Ricardo) is pretty much your typical loser, he has no
friends, is unemployed, a science fiction and videogame geek, obsessed
with porn, he wears the same outfit every day and lives solely on pizza
and burgers - and he has given up all hope to ever amount to anything,
including having sex with a girl. Enter young drugdealer Thai (April
Wade), who only shows up at his place because she has a wrong address at
first - but she soon comes to like Opie and decides to try to hook him up
with a woman via the internet. That doesn't work, but somehow, she and
Opie land in bed together - and before you know it they have a sexual
relationship. What Thai has forgotten to tell Opie though is that she
already is in a relationship, with butch lesbian Dakota (Ute Werner) - and
Dakota doesn't hesitate to beat him up once she finds out. Thing is,
Dakota feels drawn to Opie as well, and soon the two of them land in bed
together, too. Thing is, they do it behind Thai's back - with whom Opie
still has sex as well -, and when she finds out, it's big breakup time. It
seems Opie is back where he started, a loser with no girlfriend and a porn
obsession. Then though, he meets Rain (Jesselynn Desmond), a woman he has
met on an internet dating site who has really low standards - and for a
woman with lowered expectations, Opie doesn't do too badly. So before you
know it, the two of them land in bed and start having a relationship.
Problem is, both Thai and Dakota return to Opie (without the respective
other knowing about it), and he's too weak to turn them down and beds both
of them repeatedly besides having a relationship with Rain. Thanks to a
spiteful ex, all three women find out about what Opie is doing behind
their respective backs, and they demand a resolution to the situation. All
Opie manages to suggest though is to meet and bed them in shifts, not so
much because he is such a macho who regards himself irresistible but
because he's weak, indecisive - and dating three women pretty much at the
same time doesn't sound too bad, now does it? Opie's three girlfriends
leave him furiously and vow to never speak to him again, but before the
week is over, all three have returned, and he meets them in shifts. Everything
goes well for a while, but the whole situation is in a delicate balance,
and when Opie starts seeing his neighbour Randi (Samantha Turk) on the
side - not for sex, just for conversation -, his three girlfriends get
jealous, especially because Randi has so much more in common with Opie
than any of them ... and as a result, Randi gets hospitalized by the
girls, and once out, her first way is to Opie to kick him in the groin. However,
the whole situation between Opie and his three girls is still unresolved -
but when they demand a decision on who he's going to go steady with, he
kicks them all out and prefers to get his old life back ... Opie
Gets Laid has all the ingredients of a complete mess of a cheesy
romantic comedy - but it has actually turned out to be a pretty
entertaining film, a low budget flick that doesn't try to transport any
conservative messages on its back and tries to force a happy ending onto
its story, instead it tells a simple story with many fun twists filled
with well-written and well-played characters carried by intelligent,
subtle humour instead of badly conceived slapstick. Very enjoyable!
