Naked Hollywood 21 & 22 review summaries:
MD James'
Title: Naked Hollywood 21&22 Combo Released by: Adam & Eve I dont know about you, but I never really understood why HBOs "Sex in the City" was so popular. I mean, you basically had four women just TALKING about sex and love and relationships in New York City, but showing very little SEX. I mean, come on, were talking HBO! They can show mobsters, strippers, prostitutes, autopsies, crime scene photos, but four lovely women can only TALK about their sex lives? Apparently this reviewer wasnt the only one who felt that way, because the folks at Adam & Eve decided to do their own version of "Sex in the City", but with a few obvious twists. First, move the setting from NY to LA. Second, change the profession of the main character from newspaper columnist to radio talk show host. Third, bring in four of the hottest adult stars you think of to play the four women. And fourth and most importantly, SHOW THE SEX! And thus was started the adult series "Naked Hollywood". And it was good. [read the full review]

There is background music but it's low volume and unobtrusive. Disc Problem: This has trouble in my player and the main menu freezes after about 1 minute. Review: Trailer: Last time on # 14 Scene 1: Keri Windsor and Anthony Hardwood This opens with Nina as a radio talk show host, talking about relationships.

Description This disc has parts 11 and 12 of Naked Hollywood, a couples feature series showcasing the amorous adventures of four friends. Nina Hartley, Keri Windsor, Dee, and Asia Carrera play the four friends. This is a two sided disc with 181 minutes total footage. As a rule, condoms are used. The scenes have natural sounds plus lite jazzy music. General Impression This series has a consistent high quality. The characters are fleshed out a bit by a minimal plot. The sex is hot without being extreme. Part 11 After a brief recap of part 10, Keri Windsor meets with Joel Lawrence for a quick romp at his house before his wife gets home. Keri does an incredibly nice, teasing blowjob with great eye contact, and Joel then playfully spanks her face and tits with his meaty unit. She straddles his face and askes him to slap her clit, and he tongues her too. She's on her back as he works her over, then he pumps her in mish with a nice intensity. [read the full review]

Initial Reaction: Its the best episode in the series in quite a while. Who Should Watch It : Couples looking for something light and with a bit of plot Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a strong plot or sex a little on the racier side Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects of Naked Hollywood 8 are some of the best Ive seen and heard in this series for several episodes. The audio is clear and very nicely balanced. The video has some very slight grain, but is also very well lit with few shadows Music: The music varies throughout the movie, but normally rests very quietly in the background.

Music was your typical porn music. Extras: Bonus scene Preview for Naked Hollywood 4 3 trailers photo stills Bios Condoms: yes, in all cases The Movie: 'Love In The Electronic Age' covers everything from sextoy parties to internet chatrooms. Bridget hosts a sextoy party for girls only. Normally this would be a perfect setup for an all girl orgy, right? Nope - this series does things a little differently. That's why I was kind of surprised to see those workhorses of porn, Herschel Savage and Bridgette Kerkove play a married couple here - so far, they've gone with performers we're not so used to seeing, which is nice.

Director: Toni English Production date: 5/15/01 (box); 12/17/01 (feature) Length: 73 min. feature, plus 8 min. from volumes two (recap) and four (preview) Extras: A 14-min. scene from Hotspot, 7 short biographies (Nina, Dee, Lauren, Keri, Bridgette, Adajja, Herschel), 3 trailers and a slide show with 20 photos. Disc problems: My Apple DVD Player (version 2.2.1) is not reading the time stamp. If I quit during the middle of the scene and later reopen the application, the disc restarts at the FBI warning screen. This is rather annoying. There are only five chapters in the feature itself, which means a lot of scanning is necessary to find the place where I left off. Audio/visual quality: The visual quality is extremely good, with attractive sets, nice lighting and pleasing camera angles. [read the full review]

Cummings, Evan Stone, Billy Glide, Brick Majors Audio/Video: The main menu is a very well done sliding animation. The video was great, but the audio left much to be desired. For a dialogue driven feature, it was difficult to understand at times. Music was your typical porn music, ie: even though I just viewed it, I don't even remember it. Extras: Bonus scene from Stolen Moments Preview of Naked Hollywood #3 3 trailers photo stills Bios Condoms: yes, except in Billy & Darla's scene. The Movie: Billy Glide & Keri have the first scene, with mostly oral and some doggy. As usual, Keri adds heat with an energetic performance. It might seem insignificant, but a nice touch in these episodes is how the females sometimes remove the guy's undies. She tells her friends later that she came four times, though I'll have to take her word on that. [read the full review]

Disc problems: As with Naked Hollywood 1: Faking It, my Apple DVD Player (version 2.2.1) freezes if I let the menu autostart. I can circumvent the problem by holding down the right arrow key (which is the shortcut for chapter skipping). This may or may not be an issue on other players. Audio/visual quality: The video quality is immaculate. The images are consistently clear and crisp, with no significant shadow problems. The camerawork is smooth and expert, and there's nothing goofy in the editing. [read the full review]

Cast: Nina Hartley, Keri Windsor, Dee, Lauren Montgomery, Daisy Chain, Jason McCain, Evan Stone, Marty Romano and Joey Ray in sex roles; Jim Steele and Drew Warner in non-sex roles. Director: Toni English Production date: 2/20/01 Length: 81 min. (actual running time; box claims approx. 90 min.) Extras: A 19-min. bonus scene from Hotspot, 5 short biographies (Nina, Keri, Dee, Lauren, Evan), 3 trailers and slide show with 33 photos. Disc problems: My Apple DVD Player (version 2.2.1) freezes if I let the menu autostart. I can circumvent the problem, however, by holding down the right arrow key (which is the shortcut for chapter skipping). This may or may not be an issue on other players. Audio/visual quality: The video quality reveals a high level of loving care and attention. The lighting is gentle yet adequate, the focus is reasonably sharp and the transitions between camera angles are flawlessly smooth. The music varies from hard rock to sensuous jazz to synth pop, but it always fits the mood of the scene. [read the full review]

Running Time: 81 min. (cover states approx. 90 min. which is stretching things a bit) Production Date: 2 / 20 / 2001 Director: Toni English Cast: Nina Hartley, Keri Windsor, Dee, Lauren Montgomery, Daisy Chain, Evan Stone, Jason McCain, Joey Ray, and Marty Romano in sexual roles and Jim Steele and Drew Warner in non-sex roles Initial Expectations: Ive heard great things about this series, so I have pretty high hopes. Initial Reaction: I can see why Naked Hollywood has received so much attention and am looking forward to more episodes on DVD. Who Should Watch It : Couples and anybody looking for a little romance in their porn Who Should Avoid It: Raincoaters and anybody looking for nastier porn Audio /Video Quality: The audio and video are both very well done. The audio is clear and well balanced. The video has a little grain and a few shadows in places, but they rarely interfere with the feature. [read the full review]

Caught In The Act (Vivid Wave) review summaries:
Rieekan's
* DIRECTOR: Toni English. * DURATION: ยป85mins. * STARRING: Anna Malle, Celeste, Nancy Vee, Nikole Lace & Nina Hartley. OVERALL: I really wanted to like this movie it seems so hard to find a decent Celeste film (the sexy covers tend to be misleading). Sadly, the plot is barely enough to keep viewers awake and the sex is Vivid through and through; I shouldnt have expected anything else but I took a gamble. Might be remotely of interest to couples. If anyone has recommendations for a good Celeste film please e-mail me. FEMALE LOOKS: The women sport early 90s hairstyles but were quite good-looking, particularly Celeste (as always). The other brunettes were good too Anna in a sexy business suit, Nancy in a red leather get-up and Nikole in lingerie. Nina however brought things down a notch. MALE LOOKS: The usual mix a guy with annoying long hair (Marc Wallice), a pensioner (Joey Silvera), a guy who could be good-looking but just looks weird (Woody Long) and Steven St. [read the full review]

Night Nurses (Vivid Wave) review summaries:
Darkmage's
The Plot: Once upon a time, there was a student nursing program at a hospital. These student nurses were paid a small salary to help them pay their way through school and incidentally gain some experience in their chosen profession. But all is not well in the kingdom of chemical smells and scary people in white coats that keep wanting me to put on that jacket with the long sleeves that is just too tight... It appears that the nurses have been handing out some rather unusual physical therapy treatments to the patients. "Unusual?" I hear you ask, "What do you mean, unusual?" It's a porn movie, take a wild guess. In fact, after the morning rejuvenating treatment on a very happy patient, our hero Andrea (Nina Hartley) gets called into her supervisor's office (Jon Dough) where she gets the bad news: The hospital is cutting the budget, and specifically her student nursing program. Naturally, since Andrea's job is the student nursing program, she is out the door when the program ends as well. [read the full review]

Running Time: 1:15 Cast: Asia Carrera, Nina Hartley, Brittany Andrews, Nici Sterling, Sindee Coxx, Steven St. Croix, Tom Byron, Bobby Vitali, and Jon Dough Director: Toni English Extras: The same extras that are one almost all of the Vivid Wave titles. A few short biographies, interactive sex, and a few previews. Audio / Video Quality: The video quality is better than average. The picture is quite clear, and there weren't any spots where I thought it was grainy. The audio is a little below average. In a few parts the sound echoes slightly, however the main problem is the audio level. Normally on my TV I have the volume in the low 20s. For Night Nurses, I had to turn it up to almost 40 to try and hear anything. At least the audio track matched the video well. The Rest: "We all want our patients to leave here happy, happy, happy." Nina Hartley says at one point. That shouldn't be a problem with the treatments patients get at this hospital. [read the full review]
