Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe fictional Addison Beverage Corporation was Coca-Cola in the original novel. Which would have backed up 6's claim that she works for a company that can buy a continent if it wanted to.
- GoofsWhen 6 asks Scat if he came up with any new idea, they have an argument while leaving the building. 6 holds her cellphone in the left hand. In the next shot the cellphone vanishes.
- Quotes
6: The standard Vegas striptease is seven minutes long. The woman should remove her top at the four-minute mark. At six minutes, she should be naked... with the exception of an optional prop. The beginner's mistake is to get naked too fast, thinking that's what the audience is there for.
[shakes her head]
6: It's not. *Sex* is biology. Sex appeal... is marketing. It's not the naked body that's exciting. It's the possibilities.

The main story is about two advertising people are attracted to each other, but are they attracted to the image that the other is presenting or the real person behind it? There are some interesting anecdotes on the nature of marketing being presented in the movie, which I find to be the biggest draw of the movie for me. If seen from a "criticism of marketing" point of view, the movie is "deep". There are layers to the characters and story that requires a re-watch to get everything.
Overall, the movie achieves what it set to do. The story moves along at a good pace, there were no boring parts. Amber Heard's acting outshines the other actors. The not-so-big budget of the movie shows at times, but it doesn't interfere it from being a good movie.
