Running Time: 79 min. (Cover states approx. 60 min.) Production Date: 8 / 26 / 2000 (cover) 11 / 15 / 2000 (DVD) Director: Nina Hartley and Will Renald Cast: Nina Hartley, Adajja, Tyler Wood, Sindee Coxx, Baz, Keisha, and Mark Davis Initial Expectations: I really enjoyed Nina Hartleys Guide to Sex Toys, which gives me a lot of hope here as well Initial Reaction: Its another nicely entertaining educational feature from Nina Hartley. Who Should Watch It : Anybody curious about the love swing Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for information on sex toys such as dildos Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects of this DVD have come a long way from where they were in the earlier installments of this series. The audio is very clear and well balanced, but there is a little dubbing in places. The video has a little grain, but not much, and very few shadows. Music: Theres only a little bit of music, but when there is its nicely balanced with the rest of the audio. [read the full review]

review from 7/16/2003:
Description 'Sexploration' might sound exciting and adventurous to you. But this movie is mostly examples of what a few couples might do in their bedrooms. General Impression Although there is some soft instructional talk, accompanied by twinkly music, this is basically a peek into the neighbors' bedroom windows. The instructional aspect is very basic, almost remedial. There is an audience for this movie -- people who are inexperienced or timid about sex may find it reassuring and helpful. A few good points are made, but the basic value of the movie is it's healthy, relaxed, playful tone. Sex Shayla teases her real-life beau Anthony, playing with his dick and nibbling at it through his silk boxers. There's some nice, sexy tease here. Nina sits on the sidelines making commentary, which is always a bit jarring to me. I would have liked it if she had not been in the room interrupting the couple, and had overdubbed the commentary later. As Shayla sucks Anthony's dick, Nina walks over to ask Shayla for a little kiss. Whatever. [read the full review]

Running Time: 64 min. (cover states approx. 60 min.) Production Date: 8 / 26 / 2000 Director: Nina Hartley & Will Renald Cast: Nina Hartley, Shayla LaVeaux, Joel Lawrence, Anthony, and Running Horse Initial Expectations: Ive had mixed luck out of this series, so Im not quite sure what to expect. Initial Reaction: Its okay, but feels more like a porno than an educational feature. Who Should Watch It : Anybody who wants to be more comfortable with sex Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for exploration beyond vaginal sex Audio /Video Quality: Although the audio has a few spots where the balance is off a little, most of the time its very clear and easy to understand. The video is also good. It has a few shadow problems here and there, but I think theyre mostly there to help the mood out. Theres just slightly more grain than normal, but it isnt enough to really interfere. Music: The music starts out with a classical piano style and moves on through some other styles that fit the mood of the feature very well. [read the full review]
