X: Night of Vengeance is a strange Australian movie that I selected last night. I will say it up front that X is not a good movie, but it has some good acting and an excellent look at the seedier side of Sydney. X stars Viva Bianca, Hanna Mangan Lawrence, and Peter Docker.
Viva Bianca is Holly, a 29-year old high-class call girl in Sydney who's about to retire to her dream life in Paris. Her time-honored one last job involves a threesome with a drug dealer and when her colleague slips in the shower and knocks herself out, Holly finds inexperienced 17-year old hooker Shay (Mangan-Lawrence) on the street and talks her into taking the job.
However, things quickly go wrong when, after the threesome, their trick is murdered by a corrupt cop while they hide in the bathroom. Soon, Holly and Shay find themselves on the run and quickly realize they can't trust anyone except cab-driving wannabe magician Harry.
While some will be put off with the nature of this movie along with its nudity and sex, I can say that this is one of those movies that is neither good nor bad.
