Hollywood Guru review summaries:
Tongue in Groove's
Hollywood Guru is a couples flick featuring some decent talent and okay sex action, but it could put a stroker to sleep quickly. The predictably soft music throughout is an insomniacs best friend. It even plays during the Behind the Scenes bonus feature. Zzzzzz. The movie employs Adam & Eves traditional camera work, that is, lots of Playboy Channel shooting. There are more shots of the couples kissing and fondling then there are of close-ups of actual penetration. There are no anal scenes and no facials in director Nicholas Steeles effort. In other words, invite Mom and Dad over to watch. Its that vanilla. Forget the plot. Its inane and hard to follow. Suffice to say, Steven St. Croix plays an enlightened man who spreads happiness to everyone he meets by reciting lines such as Truth is at the river. He wears a smock straight from the Beatles Magical Mystery Tour album collection. As for the sex, pretty blonde Taylor Lynn does a g/g with Lauren Phoenix; Phoenix takes on Randy Spears; attractive brunette Giselle gets our guru, St. [read the full review]

Running Time: 102 min. Production Date: 7 / 13 - 14 / 2000 (feature) 2 / 08 / 2001 (cover) Director: Nicholas Steele Cast: Kristal Summers, Adriana Sage, Felecia, Isabella Camille, Lea De Mae, Zora, Nina Ferrari, Dale DaBone, Mark Davis, Joel Lawrence, and Steven St. Croix Initial Expectations: Nicholas Steele has been kind of hit and miss with me lately, however theres some nice talent here that make me hope this is more of a hit than a miss. Initial Reaction: The only word that should be used around this DVD is PULL!. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who doesnt care about the audio in a movie or who can lip-read Who Should Avoid It: Most everybody Audio /Video Quality: The audio basically sucks. Its horribly out of balance to the point that all I could really hear from most of it was a hum from my speakers. Even the hum drowned out most of the spoken audio in the setup scenes, and in the sex scenes I could barely hear the music. Even worse, the audio problems continued through the entire DVD including the extras. [read the full review]

Running Time: 105 min. Production Date: 11 / 05 / 2001 Director: Nicholas Steele Cast: Shay Sweet, Dee, Little Jody, Syren, Bamboo, Victoria Style, Daniella Rush, Evan Stone, Steve Drake, Hick, Dale DaBone, and Jean Luc Godard in sexual roles and Anthony Crane and Lu Swag in non-sex roles NOTE: Many of the names in the credits dont match up with those on the cover. Initial Expectations: Adam & Eves Premium Collection banner has been a very good sign of a well done DVD and feature, which is what I expect here. Initial Reaction: Its a fairly average feature but a very well done DVD. Who Should Watch It : Couples who arent looking for anything too risque Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for some more extreme sex Audio /Video Quality: The audio is clear but some of it is a little too low to be easily heard. The video is excellent and in anamorphic widescreen. Yes, somebody actually cares enough to do a widescreen feature right. [read the full review]

Running Time: 86 min. Director: Nicholas Steele Cast: Keri Windsor, Tara Patrick, Alexa Rae, Vivian Valentine, Jessica Drake, Sydnee Steele, Charlie, Evan Stone, Brick Majors, Mark Davis, and Brandon Iron Extras: Bios, Photo Gallery, Future Release, 'Hot Shot' link to the climax on each scene, and a 13 minute Behind the Scenes with Sydnee, Evan, and Keri. I really enjoyed the Behind the Scenes. It gave a nice feel to the cast as real people rather than people that you just enjoy watching having sex. Audio Quality: Dolby Surround. I suppose it stands to reason that if a company goes as far as to have Dolby Surround sound, they're going to pay attention to it so that it's good. As always, there are a couple small problems, but nothing that interfered with my enjoyment of the film. One scene showed some obvious dubbing. Video Quality: Above average. Most of the film is very clear, however there are a couple spots that are a little grainy but that's it. Music: Composed by Saint. [read the full review]

Caribbean Undercover review summaries:
All reviews of Caribbean Undercover
MD James'
Title: Caribbean Undercover Released by: Ultimate Pictures for Adam & Eve There are a few things about adult movies that really turn me off. One of them is this little trick that some directors use to drag a scene on through the use of slow motion. They think that this makes the movie look a little more "artistic" rather than just having two people getting it on. I, however, think it kills an otherwise steamy scene. Unfortunately for me, *Im* not the one who calls the shots at Adam and Eve, otherwise the use of slow motion in their signature productions would be kept to an absolute bare minimum. Heres the skinny: The bad guys have some "Y2K" (not tortilla) chips, and the CIA wants them, so they send in their "best agent" to go to the Caribbean island of St. Maarten to go catch the bad guys and bring home the chips. Okay, so the plot line is about par with some grade-C cable movie, but at least it explains why theyre there and not in some LA studio. Just dont expect any Oscar-winning performances from the key players. [read the full review]

Running Time: 113 min. main feature, 88 min. behind the scenes Production Date: 8 / 1999 (cover)1 / 10 / 1999 (feature) Director: Nicholas Steele Cast: Tara Patrick, Caroline Cage, Cheila, Jessica Drake, Schelly Elson, Judy, Vanda, Evan Stone, Brick Majors, Mark Davis, Anthony Crane, and Mickey G. Initial Expectations: Tara is a great actress with an amazing natural body. Ive heard great things about this movie, and I have fairly high expectations because of it. Initial Reaction: Its a pretty good movie and a very well done DVD. Who Should Watch It: Couples who enjoy anal sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks anal sex should come close to making the woman bleed Audio /Video Quality: The audio is kind of a mixed bad, and not always the good kind. There is some good and well balanced audio, but most of it seems to be on the quiet side. There are a few of the non-sex scenes that I really had to crank my volume up to hear, and many of the sex scenes dont even have any audio other than the music. [read the full review]

Tera Patrick's New Boyfriend's
This is a great DVD for the money! Most of the other titles out there in the $10-$15 price range are full of nasty skanks and mutant dicks. But Tera Patrick is hot hot hot... the other girls are ok, but nothing to write home about. "Dear Mom, I was watching this porno and these chicks were so f*cking hot and they were deep-throating these huge dicks..." Yeah right. The story is, well, a story. Who cares. But the sex is pretty good, and the "behind the scenes" feature is basically just more sex scenes which are pretty good too. All the girls are "3-input" women and there's also some threesome action going on. Not bad. One more thing: if you like big natural boobs and haven't seen Tera Patrick in action yet, get this DVD! I've seen girls bang with more, uh, "intensity" than she does, but she's gorgeous and her tits go everywhere when she's gettin' down. [read the full review]
