Island Fever 4, Jacks Playground and Skater Girl Fever

Spotlight Title: Island Fever 4

The movie Island Fever 4
is the latest in the erotic vignette series that showcases the Digital Playground
contract performers (Janine had retired again and Shay Jordan had yet to be
signed so they weren't in the movie) where the ladies engaged in various
forms of sex with the other gals or a male partner in the case of Jesse Jane
and Teagan Presley. The circus acts were left behind and there were condoms
used at times but for me, the best scenes involved multiple contract stars
trying to get each other off with all the great scenery offered up on the
islands of Bora Bora where the action was shot. There were approximately
twenty scenes here (depending on how you count some of the trysts) and even
clocking in at over three hours, that doesn't leave a lot of time for the
individual scenes to develop. The vocals were lost and music replaced them
but the look of the scenes reminded me of the term pretty porn that
many fans like a lot so that said, you really can't go wrong with it if this
is your porn genre of choice.

Island Fever 4 was
clearly Digital
Playground's premium movie of the year in terms of all the work and
sweat that went into it and our advance review of the title clearly spent a
lot of time with the multitude of extras and bonus features. Robby D. may have
suffered for his craft but he helped make director Joone look very good with
the kind of artistic, tasteful, yet powerful scenes starring some of the
reigning hotties of porn. In short, Joone's done it again and if you see
just one movie this year, you'll want it to be Island Fever 4
given the strength of the cast, the sheer beauty of all that went into it,
and the replay value provided. Jana Cova looked exquisite, Teagan looked
better than she has ever looked before, Sophia proved she offers more than
just a little sophistication, and Jesse's buoyant personality all
contributed to making this a superior effort. If you like the kind of
erotica that can be enjoyed with a significant other, Island Fever 4
is hand's down the favored movie of the year to take home various awards,
making it worthy of the X Critic Collector Series rating. The movie
might not appeal to those of you that prefer abuse porn or circus act sex
but there's no denying it was head and shoulders above the competition
mentioned so far this year. Fans of extras will also note that no better
package of extras has been released this year in terms of material uniquely
shot for the title in hand, marking it as a three disc triumph combining
quality AND quantity beyond all expectations.

Sneak Peeks: Jacks Playground 32


Having seen scores of advance screeners from a variety of companies, we
noted that Digital
Playground once again stepped up to the plate to provide us with a
quality title that has not hit the shelves yet, in this case Jacks Playground
32 which comes out later this month. Jacks
Playground is one of the longest running comedy titles in porn,
following the adventures of a hapless loser named Jack that uses the promise
of jobs in music videos to entice women into having sex with his friends or
at least masturbating ion his threadbare couch. While the series has had
some great volumes in the past, beautiful contract performer Sophia Santi in no
less than two scenes, was the focal point of the show this time. Fans of the
former Penthouse gal will find her a breathtaking sight to behold and while
she still isn't entertaining men on screen, we would point out that someone
this attractive might not have to (at least for now) so if you're interested
in the playful fun of the series, you could do far worse than jump in at
this point to see what director Robby
D. has been offering his fans.

Highlights of The Week

Reviewer Don
Houston thought that Jules Jordan's Breast
Worship was a big winner: "Jules Jordan may not be
a religious man but if you look closely at his recent titles (or derivatives
thereof) you'll notice that he spends a lot of time worshiping all things
sexual like Ass Worship, Jenna Haze
Worship, Interracial
Worship, Sperm Worship, and
Asshole Worship so
it should come as no surprise that his latest two disc epic is titled Jules Jordan's Breast
Worship. As a fan of "serious melons" myself, just the package alone
told me that I'd probably find more strokable breast material here than in
any two gonzo movies by lesser directors and I was ready to put the movie to
the test when it came in the other day. Jules Jordan's Breast
Worship was the latest Jules Jordan epic
double disc release and it seems fitting that so many of the gals were
naturally double D or better as a result. The levels of fuck for the buck,
the extras, the handpicked cast and their talented tease, as well as the
technical values all combined to make Jules Jordan's Breast
Worship worthy of a rating of Highly Recommended. I know a
few of the usual pundits will likely chime in about the horrors of lengthy
porn scenes but those of you who like tease footage and more complete scenes
with superior replay and stroke value will find this double disc set a very
nice change from the multitude of companies seeking to give you less and
charge you more, suggesting that by calling it "art" you'll be dumb enough
to buy into their argument. Further, if you like large, natural breasts,
you'll find this one to be among the very best offered up recently, marking
it as another notch on Jules' belt."

Ravyn then told us
about a trio of tantalizing titles with: The Sitter; "With
only 83 minutes to this Vivid feature film, it tends to moved along rather
quickly. The actors seemed to be in tuned with each other and were not busy
watching the clock. Each actor took the time to really intensify the moment
with their co-star which by the way Sativa Rose excels at. The idea of an
on-going fantasy of making out with ones baby-sitter is one that is
constantly in the back of the male mind and female mind as well. One can
only hope that these fantasies we all have stay locked away in the darkest
corner of our minds saving us the trouble of explaining why we always want
to drive the babysitter home. On a scale of 1-10 The Sitter rates an 8. This
is one to add to your ever growing porn collection", Draculya; "a big
budget original movie masterpiece filled with gothic passion and hard core
lust shot in a European castle and a real 15th century dungeon. A Vampire
saga that rises up from the evil sex minds of two 1880's Carpathian women
that prey upon the sexual desires of men and women alike feeding off of them
after the victim has an orgasm. Seen as a teaser glimpse into the lifestyle
for those that are Fetish and Goth "curious" Draculya certainly explores and
entertains some areas in the fetish realm. Though boot licking and licking
milk out of a saucer isn't what you many call fetish, the appearance of such
is indicated in the movie. The leather attire wore is in proper prospective
as the role of a Domme is clearly seen in Julia Silver's role as the
Succubus in total control of her minions", and Meet The Fuckers
4; "gives the viewers some great action and performances. Most of the
scenes ran longer than needed and should have been edited tighter. For
instance, the scenes with Daisy Marie and Jenna Presley dragged on using the
same positions over and over with no climax. Hillary's scene is good from
beginning to end. All in all even with the long scenes this is one to add to
your collection."

Don truly appreciated Lux's Life: "One
of the questions I field pretty regularly is how Vivid
Entertainment scores so many hot contract gals. To be honest with you, I
have several theories but never get an answer that I can live with since an
independent can make so much more on her own. Still, in recent years, this
has led to the company picking out some of the most premium pussy you'll
find in porn, several of which have cast the stereotypes aside and shown the
world what the New Vivid contract performer is like. One case in
point is Lux Kassidy; the
company's latest contract gal. She's only been in one scene prior to the
contract and gets showcased in Lux's Life on
her first outing at Vivid. The movie is a slice of life type production
where Lux plays herself as she routinely talks to the camera on the set of
her movie. She was in numerous scenes and there was a ton of footage of her
that wasn't sex related, making it a dedicated effort on her behalf. While
she only does women at this point in time, she's beautiful, sexually
appealing, and has great fun providing the kind of passionate lesbian scene
that Vivid has been known for in their sorted past. Lux's Life was a
near perfect showcase for new contract gal Lux Kassidy and
with the levels of fuck for the buck, high end production values, and sheer
fun alone, it merited a rating of Highly Recommended. The replay
value, strokability, and sweet extras sure didn't hurt either but this was
definitely a title that should be kept in mind for those who like beauty
mixed in with a passion for pussy. In short, Lux's Life
made a believer out of me that Lux and Vivid have a lot of potential
together if the company decides to mold her into the next porn success
story. Good job on the movie and on the DVD!"

Don Houston liked
Porn Tarts: "Danny Case has
been one of the best directors at Third Degree for
some time now, sticking with this alias over his usual Pat Myne for some
reason. Still, a rose by any other name still smells like a rose so whatever
his name is at a given time; his brand of porn direction always manages to
work for many of his fans. His latest offering to the porn loving world is
Porn Tarts, a
series of five scenes where new or relatively new ladies have sex after some
teasing. It was a generic type of product yet still seemed to work as the
ladies were all worthy of your time, money, and seed with no overlying theme
addressed or dialogue outside of generic porn interviews. Porn Tarts was a
solid little effort by director Danny Case for
release by Third Degree to
showcase a pleasing selection of eye candy that was new to the business.
While it had some rough edges that are expected of new gals, the overall
quality of the action was such that many of you will agree with me that
Porn Tarts is
worthy of being Recommended given the amount of fuck for the buck,
technical qualities, extras, and attractive women that were hot to trot."

Club Jenna was batting 1000 this time with Deep In Style: "Laurent Sky has
long struck me as a director all too willing to employ visual effects for a
sense of style that reminds me of a rave party (all flash and little
substance) but he has also proven to be able to transcend these leanings
when forced to adapt. His latest release by the folks at Club Jenna is
Deep In Style,
where he tried to offer something of a compromise for those of us that enjoy
effects like condiments on a good meal; sparingly. In all, I wanted more sex
and extras but this was a superior effort on the part of the director so I
was willing to accept it as transitional to his potential. Deep In Style was
far better than the oft-touted Raw Desire and Porno Revolution
in terms of people having sex and enjoying themselves as well as limiting
the amount of "style" employed in the name of providing something original
and creative. The cast was top notch, the ability to skip the non-sex parts
as a menu choice, and the very appealing BTS extra all gave me enough
ammunition to elevate the rating to a Recommended even though the
movie wasn't as lengthy or sexually diverse as I might have otherwise
wanted. The bottom line about Deep In Style
was that the roll Club Jenna has
been on continued unabated, with director Laurent Sky
showing the world that he can indeed offer "style" AND substance without the
need to sacrifice either in his porn. It was amusing to hear hostess
McKenzie Lee make numerous comments about style too but I'll let you check
them out for yourselves since I agreed with almost all of them (even if they
were a bit tongue in cheek). Nicely done!

Then came Up R Class 4: "Chris Streams is
one of the talented directors at Third Degree and
it should come as no surprise that his works tend to draw attention by
virtue of his straightforward manner of presenting attractive people having
sex. The latest offering by the man is Up R Class 4,
the sequel to Up R Class 3,
where a group of major hotties engage in heated sex that included anal play.
If this sounds good to you, you'll want to note that all of the scenes
seemed to be well handled with lots of tease for good measure. was a title
that rated a Recommended from me thanks to the wonderful casting, the
physical appeal of that cast, and the amount of quality fuck for the buck
presented with solid technical values. There was always the appearance that
the ladies were getting off and that elevated the rating for me more than a
little although the extras and a few scenes weren't quite as good as I had
hoped they'd be. In short, Up R Class 4
was another in the series that fans will enjoy if they appreciate fine women
having heated sex in front of the camera. Good work!

Sexpose was
another solid entry that surprised us this time: "Lexie Marie was a
contract gal that had the looks but often lacked the ability to have
powerfully appealing sex on camera. In the last year, she has gone from zero
to hero in that sense since she has found something inside herself that has
elevated the heat of her scenes, the active enjoyment of her scenes, and the
sexual aggressiveness of her scenes to the point where I almost wonder if
something specific took place to bring this newfound sense of passion out of
her. That said, the folks at Teravision took
full advantage of this new Lexie and made a showcase DVD using her in
every scene called Sexpose. If
you've ever cared for her looks or abilities, this is clearly the pinnacle
of her career as each scene had a lot of the qualities I look for in a
winner. I haven't always been a slavering fanboy of the young hotty but if
she makes more flicks like this one, I could find myself kissing her curvy
little ass all over the place. Sexpose was a
title I could easily rate as Highly Recommended based on the amount
of fuck for the buck, the quality of the cast and sexual heat, the extras,
and technical values. I've said it before that when people put their mind to
something and try to focus their energies, they can transcend their usual
limitations. In the case of Sexpose, Lexie Marie worked
with some of the finest talent but didn't rely on their appeal alone as she
totally threw herself into the action like never before. Showcase movies
like this are rare these days but whoever made the decision to put Lexie in
every scene took a big chance and it paid off incredibly well. Good job!"

Reviewer The
Mooninite picked up two of the most awaited titles geared to the younger
porn lover with Skater Girl Fever;
"starts off with the camera following a terry cloth clothed gal wandering
down the street with her board. From there we see clips of the girls from
the film kissing and goofing around â€" it's very candid and informal and not
at all like you'd expect a porno movie to start out like. An excellent
combination of naturally sexy women, hot sex, and kink all shot really well
and set to a great batch of songs, Skater Girl Fever isn't your everyday run
of the mill smut film. It's artistic without being pretentious, it's
completely hot without being too intensely dirty and most importantly it's
fun", and Blacklight Beauty
"this is a fun and freaky smut movie with hot little punker/alt/whatever
girls doing their thing and looking good. Zipper experiments with the
structure and the cinematography so sometimes it gets a little odd in terms
of the visuals but that appealed to this reviewer's sensibilities a fair bit
as at least it was something a little out of the ordinary and different. If
you've enjoyed any of the Burning Angel stuff or some of the more recent
Pulse titles like Naked and Famous
then the odds are pretty good that you'll dig Blacklight Beauty a fair bit.
It's a really slick blend of over the top style and hot, hardcore sex. The
clowns, well, they wouldn't have been missed to be honest but the rest of
this package is quality stuff.

Was there ever any doubt about How Do You Want
Me?: "Vouyer Media has
one of the best track records going for a gonzo company thanks in large part
to founder/director Vince Vouyer.
Vince is known far and wide as a skirt chaser and his desire to provide
cutting edge gonzo without relying on goofy special visual effects or circus
act sex to improve his movies has long been appreciated. His latest winner
of a flick is How Do You Want
Me?, a series of scenes that are dedicated to new women or women
trying new things, all captured in POV fashion. The short version of the
review is that Vince did an exceptional job here but the ladies shined on
their own merits, making it easy to watch the movie but tough to keep my
hands on the keyboard as I wrote this review. How Do You Want
Me? was another fine example of the work of Vince Vouyer as an
innovator in gonzo porn. The ladies were attractive and skilled, their
enthusiasm added extra heat, and the technical values combined with superior
fuck for the buck and fun factor made me figure it was well worth a rating
of Highly Recommended. In short, How Do You Want
Me? should provide Vouyer Media with
another example of why they are among the top companies in the industry
these days as Vince used all his wiles to obtain the best possible
performances out of an already talented cast of fine ladies. Great work!"

Reviewer Namrufmot
likes them young so he found three youth oriented titles to share this time
with: Barely Legal 60
"Considering they're up to the 60th installment in the series, you know
Hustler is doing something right. Unlike many other "teen" DVDs, the girls
presented here actually look like they could be in high school still. This
would make a solid rental or a good purchase if you can find it on sale", Teen Tryouts Audition
46 "I've had the pleasure of reviewing a number of the Teen Tryout DVDs,
and this is one of the best. I'd almost recommended buying it just to see
Sweety in action, but when you consider that there are four more enjoyable
scenes it becomes a no brainer. If you're in the market for a quality teen
DVD, look no further", and Desperate House Whores
5 "My only "complaint" with some of the series' previous installments,
was that the girl didn't look like they could be real housewives. That's the
same case with this title; the girls often look too young. So don't but this
DVD because you're expecting to see some MILFs, buy it because it has some
energetic and enjoyable action."

The Mooninite also
enjoyed: Naughty Book Worms
4; "is targeted to a pretty specific segment â€" those who like natural
girls in glasses (three of the five girls keeps her glasses on for her
entire scene) and who also enjoy the fantasy of a teacher coercing a student
into sex in order to boost grades or win favor. If you dig young girls in
glasses and get off on the student/teacher fantasy that this plays up on,
you'll enjoy the release. The girls are all sexy and natural and as
pedestrian as the fucking is, everyone seems to be enjoying themselves which
raises things up a bit more than the otherwise would have scored.
Recommended if this fits your kink, a decent rental for everyone else", and
Manhandled; "if
you like seeing women fucked really hard and almost violently with little
regard to their pleasure (or at least it would seem that way) with a lot of
angry stunt fucking then this is going to be right up your alley. It's very
well shot and very well cast and the girls take it like champs. On a
personal level, it wasn't 'my thing' and so it won't get the glowing
recommendation that other Belladonna releases have gotten in the past. If
this is your kink, however, you will definitely dig it and there's a massive
amount of content in here to get you off. It's recommended for those who
know what they want and know what they're getting into."

Ravyn then
finished up her look at the premium compilation series by top notch Wicked
Pictures, saying: Wicked Legends 2;
"Wicked 's best of the best picks are presented in this four hour DVD. Each
one of these well written scenes reminds us that Wicked is well known for in
the Industry, giving women and couples all the romance and sensuality
without the hardcore, rough sex , circus acts which you seen in many other
films. All in all, this entire DVD is well worth the 4 hour watch", and Wicked Legends 3;
"In this third and final DVD of Wicked Legends Volume 3, once again Wicked
has out done its self with giving us the clips of their best movies. Some of
them are meant to buy movies were others you can rent then. We all have
different opinions on what we like and dislike. Over all, this is one you
should add to your collection and I know I am certainly purchasing a few to
add to my already growing collection. Wicked you have out done yourselves
again."

Houston found Romantic Rectal
Reaming 2 worthy, saying that: "Anabolic Digital
is one of those basic gonzo companies that has long established itself as a
training ground for directors and performers alike as it continues to churn
out a lot of hardcore titles with various directors. Their latest release of
note is Romantic Rectal
Reaming 2, a title with a splendid cast of talented ladies who took
to anal like it was second nature. The casting alone was substantially
better than average; instead of having a couple of hotties and the rest
being filler chicks, the entire cast were skilled at hardcore, and the
technical values were pretty decent with a few rough edges. Romantic Rectal
Reaming 2 was the first movie directed by Rob E. Nice that I
recall seeing and I have to admit that given what a decent job he did with
this cast, I wanted to see what else he had to offer on DVD. The quality of
the cast, the amount of heated fuck for the buck, and the fact that five of
the scenes were ball draining blasts (and the sixth pretty good too except
for personal taste in the performer), all made this one worth a rating of
Highly Recommended. If Anabolic Digital
is making a lot more porn like Romantic Rectal
Reaming 2, I might have to start reviewing their titles more often
because this was a lot better than I was led to believe by some of my
associates at other websites. For all it had to offer, this was a fine fuck
flick to stroke off too repeatedly.

Vince Green
discovered that women directors can be just as good as men in Cum Swappers 5:
"Directed by the fun and sexy adult actress Nicki Hunter, Cum Swappers 5 is
a little different than you standard gonzo fare. Nicki is very vocal during
each scene and very rarely goes silent during the film. Besides directing
the performers, she encourages them, complements them and even moans and
groans during the action. Cum Swappers 5 was
the first gonzo I've watched with a female director so involved from behind
the camera. Even though the DVD was lacking in extras and could have
technically been better, I thought it was a fun and refreshing release.
Nicki Hunter had 10 great looking girls to work with, and produced good sex
scenes including some elaborate cum swapping. This release might not be for
everyone, but if you don't mind constant commentating by a female director,
you should give this a shot."

Kudos to Chris Streams for Filthy: "Third Degree is a
company dedicated to providing porn that fans can stroke off to without all
the bells and whistles or artistic lameness that you might have noticed
enjoying a renaissance at some companies. As such, fans have sought out
their consistently best directors like Chris Streams and
honored him by singling him out as someone they can trust to deliver the
goods. His latest movie is Filthy, a
series of heated gonzo scenes where the cast were given some basic steps to
follow for the enjoyment of each other and with the fan in mind, with some
of the best talent in the business. Filthy was another
title from Third Degree that
earned a rating of Recommended for the quality of casting; the levels
of fuck for the buck, and the technical excellence that helped convey the
performances at their best. Not all of the ladies were equally talented but
the worst of the lot was still better than average and it became clear to me
that Filthy was a
cut above the pack in several ways. From newcomer Amy, to rising anal
princess Naomi, to the seasoned skills of Lisa, there was a lot of solid
fucking going on and the extras didn't hurt either. Give it a look and
you'll find a lot to like for a reasonable price, though it was not the top
pick from the company of late."

Interracial Lust 4
seemed like a proven commodity: "Platinum X
Pictures is currently releasing some of their previously shot movies
during a short production hiatus. Some of them are better than others and
before she left for greener pastures, contract director Jewel DeNyle had
shot a number of titles worth your time, semen, and money with one of the
last being Interracial Lust
4, a series of five scenes between black men and white or Latina
women. If you look at the cast, you'll have a pretty fair idea of what these
gals are capable of and a few of them really turned up the heat here. Interracial Lust 4
was not the best movie I've seen from Platinum X
Pictures of late but aside from one guy's wood problems and a few ladies
in a bit over their head, I thought it had a decent amount of stroke and
replay value. For the levels of fuck for the buck, production values, and
reasonably decent extras, I thought Interracial Lust
4 earned a rating of Recommended. If you like this kind of
show, you can find titles with more quality, and others with more quantity,
but for the price PXP titles sell for, you may have to look for thematic
equivalents in the under $20 price range that offer as much."

Always a proven champion, Mike John's Semen
Sippers 5: "Mike John is
probably best known as one of the leading director proponents of point of
view (POV) gonzo porn; having shot it for several companies before landing a
job at Jules Jordan Video
earlier this year. I know he has a great many fans and other company owners
have confided in me that they really wish they could have signed him up
themselves given the consistent quality he provides in his movies. His
latest release is Mike John's Semen
Sippers 5, a movie that had pairs of women having gonzo sex with a
guy before ending the scene with a cumswap and swallow. After all, the cover
said it best with: "sharing is caring" and the characters employed in the
movie were some of the best known performers in modern porn so I had little
doubt that fans would be happy. Mike John's Semen
Sippers 5 may not have been the best Mike John DVD made
to date but it was clearly a solid enough effort to justify the hiring
decision of Jules Jordan Video
yet again. I'm not going to say that everything the man touches turns to
gold but his track record is still well above average for his peers and the
levels of fuck for the buck, extras, and decent technical values all added
up to a rating of Recommended. In short, Mike John's Semen
Sippers 5 had some very strokable and replayable scenes that even
though who aren't specifically fans of Mike's will enjoy watching this one
more than a few times."

Reviewer Namrufmot
also liked: 1 Dick 2 Chicks 5;
"Like the previous installments, this DVD is everything that an adult DVD
should aspire to be. Intense and playful action, excellent video quality,
and plenty of extras all make this DVD a great value. Fans of threesomes
(who isn't) will definitely want to consider adding this one to their
collection", Jam Packed
Assholes; "If there is one way to describe this release its "Value
Packed". With over five hours of action spread across two discs there is
sure to be something for everyone. And because Red Light had their choice
among scenes to pick from, they chose only the best â€" no fillers here. If
you're a fan of anal sex, you'd seriously be hard pressed to find for fuck
for your buck than this", and New Whore At The
Door; "Overall I was pretty satisfied with this DVD. Starring some very
attractive ladies the sex is always passionate and energetic â€" never
mechanical. The only fault I can find, and granted it's a small one, is the
lack of quality extras. It still provides enough "fuck for your buck" to
earn a rating of Recommended."

The Hustler Empire Best of
Centerfolds looked awesome: "a collection of scenes shot by Richard Hamilton
from his Centerfold and Taboo lines, taking some of the best
the series had to offer in order to provide the consumer with nearly three
hours of cheap entertainment for your personal pleasure. Best of
Centerfolds is part of the newly established Larry Flynt's Private
Collection series and as such, it appears that some extra care went into
making it. The quantity of fuck for the buck, the quality of the ladies, and
the production values, were all sufficient to rate it as Recommended
or better, depending on your tastes and how many of the scenes you already
have. I would have preferred that the scenes be marked with which titles
they came from and that the DVD packaging more openly admit it was a
compilation in the first place but I have to admit that Best of
Centerfolds was a nice beginning to a series that has a lot to draw
from if the right person is put in charge of it."

Reviewer Namrufmot
then found No Swallowing Allowed
9: "There's not much to say about this DVD other than it's just another
typical gonzo release. I often felt that the action was a little too
extreme, so unless you're into that I'd look elsewhere. I wouldn't want to
pay full price because I think there are better titles out there. If you
manage to find a good deal though, I'd definitely consider adding this title
to your collection though" and Incumming 9
worthy: "Cream pies seem to be gaining a lot of popularity in the
marketplace. I've had the pleasure of watching two installments in this
series, and I was very impressed by both. Featuring some of the industries
hottest girls doing all sorts of natural acts, this DVD will be sure to
please the discriminating cream pie fan."

We liked About Face POV 4:
"Third Degree has
become one of my favorite gonzo companies this year as I've watched numerous
outings by director Chris Streams. His
latest movie out is About Face POV
4, the sequel to About Face POV 3,
where the ladies all provided some tease footage and then had sex with him
in point of view (POV) fashion. While it seems like a simple formula to
follow, the choices in casting the ladies were all really solid except for
one and the results were noticeably better than so many titles on the market
these days. About Face POV 4
was a title from Third Degree
director Chris Streams that
was worth a rating of Recommended to me (but for one gal that I
didn't like and the lack of some advertised extras, it would've been
higher). The quality of four scenes was high, the technical values tended to
be very decent in most cases, and the strokability of the material was as
solid as the replay value. In short, About Face POV
4 had some rough edges but they were rough edges that allowed for
lots of energy and chemistry to be displayed so I found it to my liking more
often than not. If you enjoy true POV gonzo, give this one a look and I
think you'll be surprised at the levels of quality displayed."

Don found a new company to supply his voracious appetites with XXX Pin-Ups 1: "Mach 2 is one of
the new gonzo producers of porn on the block so I gladly picked up a couple
of screeners from them the other day in hopes of seeing what they had to
offer. Upon reading their website, I found a number of names that I have
long associated with quality porn so I felt that my chances for finding a
new source of good titles had increased substantially (too many new guys
seem to be in porn for a quick buck; a less likely scenario in these days of
tightened budgets and lower sales). The first movie from the company was
XXX Pin-Ups 1,
a series of gonzo scenes directed by veteran performer Otto Bauer. While
there were some rough edges in need of polishing up, the movie was well
worth checking out, especially thanks to the assistance of industry veterans
Jim Powers and Skeeter Kerkove. XXX Pin-Ups 1 was
a nice surprise for me because given the number of gonzo companies churning
out porn, many of the newer ones seem too derivative of the rest of the
pack. Without providing something of merit that the other guys don't have,
that means you either need to compete on price, quality of talent, or an
overall vision. It was funny that when I first opened the DVD case, I
thought the DVD was signed by the cast and thought that this was a nice
touch for a company to provide (it never hurts to be nice to reviewers)
though upon closer inspection, all the magic marker wording said was
"screener copy not for sale". Regardless, Mach 2 is starting
off on a good foot with me for the quality of the movie in hand, earning a
rating of Recommended for XXX Pin-Ups 1.
If their other titles are as good as this, it won't be long before they
become a name to be reckoned with. Good job!"

one of those background production assistant types that has been branching
out a lot lately as a director, providing his own unique brand of porn that
addresses the need for interracial harmony. His latest such movie is Puff Puff
Give, a series of interracial cumswapping scenes that were heavy on
anal sex and a diverse selection of ladies, including two of the most
popular anal queens in porn. Puff Puff Give
proved to be a nice selection of hardcore raincoater scenes for the
interracial lovers out there that want to see more cumswapping in their
porn. Director Dawayne Dane used
the talents of Chris Streams to capture the hotties as best he could and the
levels of fuck for the buck, combined with some great casting and passion,
made Puff Puff Give
worth a rating of Recommended from me. There were some rough edges
that could have been polished up and some of the ladies seemed too
mechanical in how they approached the action but none of the ladies appeared
to dodge the streams of semen or have issues with the color of their
partners, a distinctive difference from some of the other titles for sale
these days if you know what I mean."

We close with Ass Jazz 3: "Jazz Duro proved
to me with his direction of Ass Jazz 2 that he
was no one hit wonder in gonzo porn; providing the kind of heated sexual
escapades that drive fans wild with stroke value so I was pleased to hear
that Evil Angel was
going to continue the series with Ass Jazz 3,
the newest anal extravaganza released by the company. Ass Jazz 3 was
another good effort by Jazz Duro that he
can add to his porn resume with a gleam of pride in his smile for the kind
of heated anal antics he offered up to the home viewer. It had some
additional rough edges and I'd rather he find more of the fresh talent he's
used in the past or get into doing some of the better quality anal queens
though it was still a nice selection given their skill levels. In short, I
thought Ass Jazz 3 was
worth a rating of Recommended or better for all you anal fanatics out
there that are tired of seeing the same old couches, the same old faces, and
the same old formulas used far too often by most of the established
directors in the jizz biz. It wasn't quite as appealing as Ass Jazz 2 but I'd
hardy expect Jazz to hit a homerun every chance he got so until volume 4 in
the series comes out, you'll be satisfied with plenty of stroke value as
provided here."
