Full Frontal

Full Frontal represents the first time you know from the start you’re watching a Steven Soderbergh film, and that’s not necessarily a good thing. Like the eclectic
filmmaker’s breakthrough debut, 1989’s Sex, Lies and Videotape, this low-budget ensemble effort follows a bunch of 30-somethings (Blair Underwood and Julia Roberts among them) yammering about their love and sex lives. For me, all of the neurotic navel-gazing was a drag.
