If you want people to actually pay attention to your review, you might not want to start it out with a snarky comment directed at a large portion of your audience.
And yeah, I know you think it's okay to do because you're "right" and all, but I'm just going to point out that I went into this review interested in what you had to say, got pissed off at the first paragraph, and didn't read further because I no longer cared about the review because I was annoyed with you. And while I'm sure you don't care about how I feel, I'll bet you do care if people read your review. Maybe you'll get more of them to do so if you don't start it off by being rude.

No. "Puritan prudishness" characterizes much of America perfectly. Leave it in.

Either way though, it caused the thread to derail into quite unintended directions.

I think it's silly and thin-skinned to get offended at statements of the obvious.

I fail to see any snarkiness, or who would be "irked".

I certainly don't avoid interacting with those who disagree with me on most things.

Either way, you guys, the point of my review was that this was more than just a sex movie.

Well, a few more movies like this and he'll have a reputation that allows him to act that way.

Yeah, surprisingly enough, that longest scene really did get sort of boring.

I seem to recall the author of the graphic novel, Julie Maroh, also criticising the sex scenes
