The first act has some interesting moments where the two leads are trying to work out what each other wants sexually, but it happens in fits and starts and with some genuine awkwardness. That was cool, but then it devolved into a standard affair storyline, with some political overtones that felt like hack writing.

She wanted sexy stuff and left disappointed. I wanted a story and some sort of interesting character work, and was left wanting. 5/10.

Also, just an utterly odd film to release at Christmas time. I cannot figure out the decisions behind this movie.
Unlike Baby Girl, Nosferatu delivers on the sexy stuff.
