Its scope is too limited for it to muster much of a response in us beyond basic titillation. And there are plenty of better places to go for that.

Three generations of a French family open up about their sexual experiences and desires after young Romain is caught masturbating in his biology class.
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
Offers diverting date-night fare for open-minded heterosexual couples and swingers, though its superiority (artistic or otherwise) to actual porn is debatable.
A barrage of screwing with interludes does not yield a cohesive movie. Watching Sexual Chronicles of a French Family, the one-note idea grows increasingly evident, as does its absence of fresh ideas.
It's a celebration of libertine sexuality - nothing more, nothing less - and almost remarkably untroubled by any of the dramatic issues it raises. Much of its 79 minutes is spent marveling over how skillfully the actors simulate the real thing.
