Sex and Breakfast is a riveting dark comedy exploring the intricacies of modern-day relationships. The movie stars Macaulay Culkin as a young man named James, who lives with his girlfriend, the sultry, controlling, and highly sexual Zoe, played by Alexis Dziena. As the film begins, we get to see the daily routine of James and Zoe, waking up, going to work, coming home, and having sex in different ways.

The couple seems to have it all together: a smooth relationship, great sex life, and a steady flow of income. However, Zoe seems to be getting bored with their sex life and suggests they should try a threesome to spice things up. James is hesitant but agrees eventually. They advertise on an online forum and finally call in Edmond, played by Kuno Becker, a shy, introverted writer. The couple soon realizes they would have to open up about their personal lives before continuing the threesome.

As the night goes on, they all reveal their innermost secrets and desires, which leads to a deep exploration of what it means to be in a committed relationship. The three characters come from varying backgrounds and have different stories to tell, and this sets the stage for an evening filled with witty one-liners, funny situations, and philosophical discussions about sex, love, monogamy, and happiness.

The movie provides a fresh, intimate look at what goes on in bedrooms across the world, and how people decide what they want, what they can give, and what they're willing to accept from their partners. Sex and Breakfast is unique in the sense that it doesn't follow the typical script for a sexual comedy, it tries to showcase romantic relationships in an open, candid way. Instead, it revolves around conversation, revelations, and misunderstandings.

With excellent performances from all cast members, Sex and Breakfast offers an intelligent, hopeful, and often hilarious portrayal of the dynamics of modern-day relationships, as well as a great deal of humor, surprises, and heart. The movie offers insight into the complications of sexual chemistry and human dynamics and takes aim at the conventions of relationships and their pitfalls.

The movie masterfully tackles some of the most complex and sensitive issues like consent, communication, and the power dynamics between sexual partners. It's refreshing to see the film not present these issues in absolutes, but to reveal them in a nuanced way, showing the gray areas and the struggles of modern-day relationships. It presents fresh ideas and challenges traditional norms to deliver a bold, new take on the romantic comedy genre.

Overall, Sex and Breakfast delivers not only as an erotic comedy but also as a film that challenges its viewers to explore themselves and their relationships. The film leaves a lasting impression with its sincere, profound message and holds the audience's attention throughout its runtime. With its unique approach to sexual comedy, Sex and Breakfast is a perfect choice for anyone looking for a thought-provoking and entertaining time.

Sex and Breakfast is a 2007 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 21 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.8.
