Anyone catch this? Seems to be getting luke warm reviews.

Well, since you asked, my reaction was also lukewarm. There were lots of elements we've seen elsewhere handled in an ok fashion here. My impression was that a decision had been made late in the production to exclude nudity. Shay Mitchell takes two chaste showers and one character spends almost the entire movie nude, although lighting, limb placement and camera angles conspire to ensure that nothing transpires that is more than PG (in this R-rated movie). I can't help but wonder whether the entire project was afflicted by similar late-in-the-game decisions. The sub 90-minute running time suggests this. A film like this, with nothing new to offer, would have to go for broke to make an impression. Maybe an unrated blu-ray version will be more tasty.

At the end, there was an unsubtle set up for a sequel.
