Has a good reputation among critics and film-buffs, but I thought this was duller than dullsville on a dull tuesday. Fassbender has got to be one of the most overrated actors in recent times. He's got a distinctive look and his eyes pierces through the screen I'll give him that. And a well-sized johnson (as proven on numorous ocassions here) but other than that he's fairly mediocre.
Brandon, a thirty-something man living in New York, eludes intimacy with women but feeds his deepest desires with a compulsive addiction to sex. When his younger sister temporarily moves into his apartment, stirring up bitter memories of their shared painful past, Brandon's life, like his fragile mind, gets out of control.

Perhaps I’m just desensitised to sex, and stories about sex, but for the most part the regular sight of a naked Michael Fassbender shagging, showering and/or wanking did nothing for me. His “Brandon” is a New York office worker who is obsessed about sex and who works in a team of permanently horny men led by his married but odiouly indiscreet boss “Fisher” (James Badge Dale) who also has a lot in common with a rabbit. “Brandon” has no problem attracting women, or paying for their services, until his sister “Sissy” (Carey Mulligan) arrives for a visit. He’d ignored her calls for days hoping…
