A husband suffering a sexual dysfunction hires men to keep his wife satisfied whilst he awaits an operation to fix his condition.

Begins well enough but predictably falls apart by the second act (if not sooner) with a very loose narrative structure in which characters behave in ways counterintuitive to the way in which they've been introduced e.g. Crystal Sync's role begins as an ambivalent character mocking the protagonist's situation, but is later seen supporting his wife with apparatuses and celebrating the operation.

Although it's a absurdist comedy, both the perspective (which seems to shift from the wife to the husband intermittently) and tone is very uneven at times and it's consequently difficult to follow the purpose of the plot. The title is also misleading as whilst it appears to intimate that it might be spoofing the television series ('Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman') I couldn't really detect any relevance to it in the film which is confusing.

Makes good use of external footage and there's a few decent set-ups created (the operating theatre scene is done reasonably well), overall it's mildly entertaining though lacks focus at times.

The comedy genre refers to a category of entertainment that aims to amuse and entertain audiences by using humor, wit, and comedic situations. Comedies are created with the primary intention of eliciting laughter and providing lighthearted enjoyment. They encompass a wide range of styles, tones, and themes, appealing to various tastes and audiences.
