“We are thrilled to release Marriage 2.0 on another platform for even more people to be able to enjoy this unique experience in cinema,” screenwriter and producer Magnus Sullivan said. “Marriage 2.0 is a new kind of film—a marriage of independent cinema and adult entertainment that creates a realistic and intriguing story about a couple in search of a new way to define what a ‘successful relationship’ is.”
Adam & Eve director of business development Bob Christian stated, “Marriage 2.0 is unlike any movie on the market, and so we took a very untraditional approach to its release. From its online premiere to the various festivals and public screenings, the film has always been met with excitement. Now the DVD release will allow an even wider audience to enjoy Marriage 2.0, while purchasing it from their local adult retailer or favorite e-tail site.”

Discussing he movie on her VoiceAmerica radio show Sex Out Loud, sex educator and director Tristan Taormino said, “It’s different than anything out there. ... There’s really strong acting ... [the actors] have taken their craft to a whole other level. ... The cinematography is absolutely stunning. This has the production values of a mainstream film and even better than many independent films. ... Spectacular!”
Gareth May, a contributing writer for British lifestyle and culture site TheDebrief.co.uk, described Marriage 2.0 as “a potential game changer for the porn industry,” and noted, “The movie is most remarkable for its limited use of hardcore sex. ... Marriage 2.0 is a very different kind of porn film.”
Salon’s Tracy Clark-Flory wrote, “It’s a far more attractive and better-acted porn film than most. But it’s the focus on incorporating the explicit sex scenes into a well-developed narrative that really makes it stand out.”
“This film is a legitimate achievement,” hailed SFist.com contributor Joe Kukura. Concurred Badoink.com writer Vanessa Pinto, “It’s definitely a movie you will talk about after you watch it.”
