This is an above average release that doesn't seem to live up to its potential. The story is light, and at barely and hour and twenty minutes the entire movie seemed like it could have used a little more all around. There are some very nice performances from Stormy Daniels, Eric Masterson, and Kaylani Lei, but strangely Stormy and Eric turned out the weakest scene in the movie with barely any chemistry between them. The technical aspects show some nice care, including the special effects with a miniature Kaylani, and the extras showed a little effort as well. This isn't a bad movie, but it didn't come close to my expectations due to the players involved. [read the full review]

Here we have a fairy tale come to life, sorta. Jack and Jill aka Eric Masterson & Stormy Daniels have moved into a new house but they don't know their garden in the backyard holds a real garden fairy- Kaylani Lei who begins working her magic on Eric shortly after they move in. This mistakenly leads Stormy to think he's having an affair with their sexy next door neighbor, Janet Mason who is very much a swinger. A fun story and you should enjoy watching it play out. Stormy's got two scenes, one with Eric and the other a very nice running outdoor shower scene with Janet. Kaylani might be a fairy but she's able to get human size for her tryst with Eric near the end and you won't want to miss Stormy in her pink fairy suit, that's all I'm saying on that!

Hush (Wicked) review summaries:
fu_q's
"Hush" is a very good production from Wicked and Michael Raven that stars jessica drake as a police psychiatrist whose absentee father (Randy Spears) died in the line of duty when she was younger and whose boyfriend (Eric Masterson) is wholly consumed with his pursuit of a serial killer known as "The Caller". Not to introduce any spoilers, but it suffices to say that what ensues in this release is a thriller of a murder mystery that culminates in a gripping (and twisted) ending...with at least one life literally on the line. (Oh...and the sex--especially with jessic's anal antics in the final segment--is hot, too.) [read the full review]

A new jessica drake flick has arrived and she's brought along a few of her fellow Wicked contract sisters for the ride. Story wise jessica's a psychologist who treats mostly cops and the story here has a bad killer on the loose and eventually jessica becomes his target. Eric Masterson and Brad Armstrong are the male leads and each plays a significant role in jessica's characters journey through this flick. It's worth the ride to find out those roles. Good script, well done acting and top it off with solid sex scenes makes this an easy recommendation for purchase or rental. [read the full review]

Gifted, The review summaries:
astroknight's
This is easily one of the worst Wicked releases I've watched. The movie is very poorly written with sex that isn't much better due to extremely low lighting and being limited to two positions in each scene. The technical aspects don't quite make the average mark and the extras barely make it past the average mark due to a behind the scenes featurette that isn't much better than the movie. This release was a huge disappointment. [read the full review]

Deceived (Wicked) review summaries:
fu_q's
"Deceived" by Wicked Pictures is a plot-driven, couples-friendly adult film that still manages to bring home hot sex from its incredibly beautiful cast of actresses and strong cast of actors. With two excellent scenes by Mikayla Mendez, one excellent scene by Kristina Rose, one very good scene by Kaylani Lei, a solid scene by Scarlett Fay, and good bonus materials, there is a lot to recommend this title. The acting abilities of Randy Spears and Mikayla Mendez also add a lot to the success of this disc, as do the high production values, whose only shortcoming is minor voice-over garbling from time-to-time. If you are looking for anal sex or male-to-female oral action, you might want to look elsewhere, as there isn't any of this here. There is also a strict adherence to condom use. That said, none of these things get in the way of making this a highly recommendable DVD and one of the best of its genre. [read the full review]

Delilah (Wicked) review summaries:
astroknight's
This is quite possibly Michael Raven's best modern revisioning of a classic tale to date. The story is extremely well written and well acted, and the sex has some very nice variety and fits into it very well. Jessica Drake does a great job through it all, and might just turn in her best performance that I've seen so far. The technical aspects are on the artistic side with washed out and tinted video that might lose some people, but the audio is very well done. The extras also show some nice effort and help to round out a nicely done DVD. This is a really great adult feature. [read the full review]

Here we have Porn Valley which is directed by Michael Raven and stars Kaylani Lei. The story centers around Kaylani who finds out that her man of 5 years has been cheating on her with other women and has been paying for online porn. Well she dumps him and thinks that porn is bad and caused this whole ordeal. Well she resorts to online dating and falls in love with Barrett Blade and later finds out that he is porn director. She comes to love him despite his involvement with porn, and through this she comes to the realization that Porn does not cause problems in relationships, it is deception and lying that ultimately ends relationships.

What's next in line for review: What's a Girl Gotta Do? a Jonathan Morgan comedy from Wicked Pictures starring one of my favorites, Stormy. Director: Michael Raven Camera: Francois Clouset and Jake Jacobs Genre: All Sex Vignettes, Artporn Release: 7/05 Notes: Widescreen non-anomorphic 5.1 Dolby Surround Sound Audio option: German Soundtrack Condoms ! Scroll down to the bottom to see an explanation of my rating system. From the moment this movie fires up, you can tell that this isn't going to be your typical porn smut. We have some Hollywood green screen magic as the cast is introduced... Images of the girls flash on the screen with some shots looking as if they used one of those fancy Photoshop filters. When the credits finish rolling, Sativa Rose makes an appearance with her flesh blasted out in black & white, her lips a vibrant crimson, a la Frank Miller's Sin City. [read the full review]

Production Date: 6 / 17 / 2004 Director: Michael Raven Cast: Jessica Drake, Kaylani Lei, Kelly Kline, Silky Thumper, Violet Rose, Barrett Blade, Chris Cannon, Evan Stone, Jean Valjean, and Steven St. Croix The Short Story Initial Expectations: Michael Raven, Jessica Drake, and Kaylani Lei sound like a combination that should be able to please with all their hands tied behind their back! Initial Reaction: Its not bad, but its far from really good. Who Should Watch It : Couples wanting a more serious adult movie or Jessica Drake fans Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting plenty of passionate sex or a fun plot The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The audio is nicely done. Its clear and nicely balanced without any background noises. The video is presented in non-anamorphic widescreen. As usual, Im a little disappointed seeing one of the leading adult companies taking the Mal-Wart way out rather than giving it the anamorphic transfer it deserves. [read the full review]

Wicked presents Michael Raven's "Killer Sex & Suicide Blondes". I confess -- I have never seen a Wicked production before, and since I appreciate a feature film once in awhile, I thought why not. Why this particular title? Are you kidding, look at the title. Technical Runtime: 1hr 35min Region: 0 Audio/Video: Excellent. DD Surround 5.1 Feature Story Synopsis Gemini Black's husband, who worked as a hitman for the mafia, was killed in front of her eyes by his own employers. Gem is presumed dead as well, but she is not; she manages to survive, goes into hiding, and returns after several years as a ruthless, cold blooded, killer babe whose only goal is to avenge her husband. Scene 1 - Julia Ann and Randy Spears Julia (Gem) and Randy (Gem's husband) are making out on their bed. She gives him a BJ and then they have sex in cowgirl and spooning positions. Semen lands on Julia's pubes and stomach. [read the full review]

Im really curious to see what he brings to the Private party. Initial Reaction: Its an interesting take, but nowhere near as good as I normally expect from Raven. Who Should Watch It : Couples Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting audio and video that synch rather than dubbing in the native language of the performers The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The audio is dubbed pretty well. Unfortunately, its even dubbed in English despite the fact that the entire cast is English speaking as far as I know. This really interfered with the movie for me, and definitely held it back for me. The video is also pretty good. [read the full review]

Description Beautiful is a stylish, dark, moody feature, roughly based on the Snow White story. Julia Ann plays the scheming Ellen Queen, a business owner who wants to be rid of a romantic rival, her downtrodden employee Sondra Snow (played by Stormy). Condoms are used. General Impression In a nutshell, this one was fun to watch. The scenes Stormy is a bit glum, but her co-worker Devinn coaxes her into getting ready for an evening out on the town. From her dressing room, Stormy can hear Devinn next door, talking dirty to Joey Ray. Devinn shreds the shirt right off Joey, and the two of them follow up with tease, hair-pulling, whimpering, and spanking, along with the usual serving of reverse cowgirl and doggie. Stormy is still preening next door as Devinn jerks Joey onto her tits. Very nice energy in this scene. Devinn and Stormy proceed to a nightclub, where coincidentally, the evil Julia Ann is meeting with Brad, a potential business partner and suitor. [read the full review]

Blue Rain review summaries:
Mr. Soul's
This movie has some of the best plot development and acting that I have seen in adult movies. Clearly a lot of effort went into the filmaking and scriptwriting. However, what the film has in its looks and acting it doesn't carry through in the sex scenes. I found every sex scene to be an amazing disappointment considering all the trouble that the makers took to create so much other texture. A great adult movie to me should have both - great plot, great character development and acting as well as inspired and pasionate sex. This one fails to deliver on the latter. Unispired, boring and emotionally detached sex scenes. [read the full review]

In a word: Hardboiled. The gist: It's the old dirty cop/good cop movie, with a little "Training Day" flavor. Mr. Marcus might not be quite as good as Denzel Washington as the bad cop, but Kaylani Lei is an improvement over Ethan Hawke. Mr. Marcus is running a rogue crew of cops, and Kaylani has been assigned to infiltrate it. Kaylani is grilled by her superiors in a framing device shot in black-and-white, with the movie unfolding in flashbacks. We see Kaylani assimilating herself into the group, getting interested in Marcus, being forced into a climactic confrontation with him, and then dealing with the consequences. If you were wondering what the heck the title means, Kaylani's character is somewhat implausibly named Blue Rain. I wonder if she's related to Taylor, Misty, or Amber? The play-by-play: We start easy, with a blowjob scene. Marcus and a colleague are on a night stakeout in their car. These things can be boring, so Marcus has Domino help keep him awake.

Whore Sin City Feature, Couples Starring:Karina, Chloe Dior, Kaylani Lei, Avy Scott, Anna Belle, Chris Cannon, Randy Spears, Steve Hatcher, Steven St. Croix, John West, Alex Sanders. Directed By:Michael Raven Running Time:Feature: 108 minutes, Total: 176 minutes RATING: 10/10 FEATURE The dvd starts out with the feature instead of going to the main menu, and there is a menu icon at the bottom of the screen. You cannot fast forward through the credits, you can't even pause it. There doesn't seem to be any time code, so I have to use a stopwatch to get the movies duration. The audio is a bit funny as well, the sex is loud but the dialogue is quiet. Each chapter is divided into sub chapters in the scene selection menu, so you can jump to a specific spot, but this is ruined because it only plays that segment, then goes back to the scene's menu. I could do without these hokey features, but the sex in this movie makes up for them. I don't think a single condom was used. [read the full review]

Riptide (Sin City) review summaries:
andyblake's
This Michael Raven-helmed film is a porn version of "Point Break" which starred Patrick Swayze as the leader of a gang of outlaw surfers, and Keanu Reeves, as the FBI agent assigned to bring him to justice. Although the premise is promising, the execution is execrable. Nobody in this thing can surf, and nobody can act, either. The only decent surf footage is on the menu. They didn't even go out to places in Orange County or Malibu, where people actually surf, and get some shots of people actually surfing. Instead, they shot the surf scenes in the bay, where the two foot waves break on the sand. Incredibly lame!! This is why people hate porn with plot. A good surfing porno is still waiting to be made, because this wasn't it. The sex scenes are just so-so, with the exception of one three-way with April, Randy Spears, and Pat Myne, which is pretty hot. There ain't nobody in the porn version as sexy as Lori Petty was in the mainstream original. The technical aspects are terrific, with excellent cinematography. [read the full review]

Although the premise is promising, the execution is execrable. Nobody in this thing can surf, and nobody can act, either. The only decent surf footage is on the menu. They didn't even go out to places in Orange County or Malibu, where people actually surf, and get some shots of people actually surfing. Instead, they shot the surf scenes in the bay, where the two foot waves break on the sand. Incredibly lame!! This is why people hate porn with plot. A good surfing porno is still waiting to be made, because this wasn't it. The sex scenes are just so-so, with the exception of one three-way with April, Randy Spears, and Pat Myne, which is pretty hot. There ain't nobody in the porn version as sexy as Lori Petty was in the mainstream original. The technical aspects are terrific, with excellent cinematography. [read the full review]
