I agree with teenagezombie, it takes away from the real story if you have too much, especially a really over-the-top sex scene in any movie, unless of course it's a movie ABOUT sex (and again, why are people so taken up with that??).

If it's really graphic, (such as Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thorton in "Monsters Ball"), then you might get so focused on the sexual aspect that you don't get properly engrossed in the STORY itself. I thought that movie rather sucked, but then I realized I didn't really focus on what the story was about, I was to distracted/disgusted by that scene. When the movie ended, I found myself thinking "What, what? What happened?" Someone told me later what the story was and I realized it was probably better than I gave it credit for.
