Not sure why its rating is so low, but I enjoyed it. Chose it thinking it would be something I could laugh at, but it turned out to be a drama that was well-performed and held my interest. Definitely enjoyed seeing Ms. McGovern in a role far different from the annoying oracle she played on Downton Abbey. The sex scenes are erotic enough but not overdone, and the focus is on the relationship of the couple.

Plot summary
David's life is on the slide: he's in the middle of a divorce, broke and 'can't get it up'. His girlfriend, Alice, is his rock, but the magazine she writes for is going down and the pressure is on to find a story. While job hunting online, David stumbles across the perfect antidote to his boredom: a 'Swingers' site. The resulting inbox of lewd invitations on the home-laptop justifiably upsets Alice, until she realises this could be just the 'story' she needs. The idea of uncovering the swinging scene causes quite a stir in Alice's office and, much to David's chagrin, she is urged to pursue the story. Their first reluctant foray is an hysterically low-rent initiation, however, an unexpected upturn for David's manhood is all the extra encouragement they need. As events accelerate beyond their control the once adoring couple become lost and fundamental questions are asked of their relationship and them as individuals. In darkness, touched by many others, they will have to find themselves or lose each other forever. SWUNG is a graphic, touching and funny drama about the secret underside of a very modern relationship taken to its emotional and sexual limits.

Swing and a hit
Swinging (it)
2015 was quite the year for erotic mainstream movies with troubled men and women. This is another exhibit, in this case the two main characters are a couple, but the man has issues ... performing. One of the worst fears for men, that is not connected with death. Although I reckon some might say it feels the same for them (not me saying that).
Elena Anaya gives quite the central performance and while there is some melodrama and other things that might "weaken" the impact this may otherwise have had on you, this is still quite intriguing. What helps people get off and what does it do to relationships? Can the relationship survive certain incidents? Tough questions and tough answers - and while there is nudity and lust, this probably will not excite you the way it may sound at first. This is a drama after all
Not the expected one
Hoped it would be more interesting about a complicated relationship but it wasn't. It would be better to keep some twists in the plot, movies like this has either strong sexual appeal or a storyline to trick the audience. Unfortunately none of them were present.
This movie contains nothing without some low class sexual actions.
