review from 9/15/2003:
Running Time: 86 min. (includes approx. 5 min. recap from Naked Hollywood 6: Money) Production Date: 2 / 25 / 2002 Director: Toni English Cast: Nina Hartley, Dee, Keri Windsor, Asia Carrera, Lola, Nicole Moore, Anthony Crane, Dale DaBone, Pat Myne, Steven St. Croix, and Evan Stone and Lauren Montgomery in non-sex roles Initial Expectations: Ive been very impressed with most of this series, and have high expectations here as well. Initial Reaction: It does a nice job of tying together the cast change while also giving some good sex. 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 audio is pretty clear, but there is a little thats obviously been dubbed, a little thats slightly off balance, and a little that sounds hollow. The video is very well lit, but does show some very slight grain. [read the full review]

Hot Pink 2 (Adam & Eve) review summaries:

review from 8/29/2003:
Very Elegant Girl/Girl Sex and Lots of It! Im always on the lookout for a good girl/girl title. But I approached this video with some trepidation. I had seen its predecessor, the Hottest Pink, and was generally unimpressed. In it, Adam & Even had taken over a dozen scenes and chopped them up horrendously in order to fit within a two-hour format. The result was both storyless and passionless. It was very much like what Vivid (the studio) does with their own girl/girl compilations where they edit the scenes down and usually end up cutting out some of the very best portions. Gee, why cant a studio leave well enough alone but just give us more of em (the scenes, that is)? Well, Hot Pink 2 unbelievably does just that! The disc has eighteen (18!) unedited vignettes with a seemingly endless array of big name actresses. Here they are in order of appearance (of the ones that I know) Bridgette Kerkove, Alexandra Silk, Aurora Snow, Asia Carrera, Rayveness, Sylvia Saint, Cheyenne Silver, Nina Hartley, Briana Banks, Felicia, Chloe, Dee and Daisy Chain.

review from 11/25/2002:
Expectations My expectations of this DVD are that it will be very much like its predecessor, The Hottest Pink. Capsule Review This disc lives up to my expectations. It is an average comp DVD with both good and bad scenes, and varying levels of heat. While not quite as bad as Hottest Pink, the technical quality of the picture is seriously degraded from the original DVDs the scenes were taken from. Technical In order to squeeze over 3 hours of scenes onto this disc, they must have had to compress the video drastically. It shows. The quality in some scenes is worse than VHS. Director Various Extras Trailers Target Audience Girl-girl feature fans Scene Review Because there are 18 scenes in this compilation, I will not document each one here. Rather, I will hit on the highlights and lowlights of this DVD. Highlights Unfortunately, many comps miss some of the best scenes that exist. [read the full review]

The video is very well lit, but does show some very slight grain. Music: The music is the same as Ive heard in the rest of this series, and rests nicely in the background. [read the full review]

Running Time: 88 min. (cover states 80 min., which is probably about right if you take away the preview for the next episode and recap from the previous episode) Production Date: 1 / 10 / 2002 Director: Toni English Cast: Nina Hartley, Keri Windsor, Lauren Montgomery, Dee, Chennin Blanc, Gwen Summers, T. J. Hart, Anthony Crane, Chris Cannon, Lee Stone, Tyce Bune, and T. J. Cummings as well as quite a few people in non-sex roles Initial Expectations: Ive really been impressed with this series and look forward to every new episode. Initial Reaction: Its pretty good, but not quite up to some of the previous episodes. Who Should Watch It : Couples, anybody who values chemistry in their scenes, and anybody who likes a nice and realistic plot with their porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for harder fetish action such as whats found in Privates Pirate line Audio /Video Quality: Thankfully, the audio problems that have plagued the first few episodes of Naked Hollywood seem to be disappearing.

review from 11/11/2003:
Running Time: 128 min. (cover states 130 min.) Production Date: 8 / 31 / 2001 Director: None listed, but the scenes come from a variety of directors Cast: Nina Hartley, Kyle Stone, Missy, Mickey G., Mark Davis, Steve Hatcher, Mandy Frost, Malitia, Mike Majors, Allison Chaynes, Cheyenne Silver, Tony Tedeschi, and Evan Stone Initial Expectations: Ive had good luck out of this series and am looking forward to this one! Initial Reaction: It's very good, but not quite great. Who Should Watch It : Anybody whos a fan of Nina Hartley Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants a compilation stretching across Ninas entire career rather than just the last few years Audio /Video Quality: As usual with compilations, the technical aspects vary a bit from scene to scene. The audio is normally nicely balanced, and I dont think I heard a single background noise. The video is normally nicely done. Theres a few scenes with a bit of grain and inconsistent lighting, but for the most part it looks quite nice. [read the full review]

review from 8/25/2002:
Cast: Nina Hartley, Missy, Mickey G., Midori (with partner Michael), Aiko (with partner Dave), Ty Law. Director: Nina Hartley Production date: 1/97 Length: 158 min. Extras: A three-page biography of Nina (with no option for viewers to navigate at their own pace). Audio/visual quality: The visual quality is weak. The images are too soft, and the colors are washed out. Light levels vary noticeably when the camera angles change. There are problems with shadows, poor focus, oversaturated and insufficient lighting (both extremes) and blemishes that look like scratches in the master print. We do get a direct view of the action much of the time, however. The audio quality is also substandard. There are persistent and annoying background sounds, as if the microphone is repeatedly bumped. Dubbing is obvious in a couple places. Several scenes contain jazz music, which is quite pleasant except for the obvious looping. The sound of one of Nina's climaxes has been edited out.

review from 7/25/2002:
Running Time: 156 min. Production Date: Jan. 1997 Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Midori, Missy, Mickey G., Michael, Tye Law, Aiko, and Dave Initial Expectations: This series has been kind of hit or miss for me, so Im keeping an open mind. Initial Reaction: Its a great idea thats almost killed by another bonehead act. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for a little help getting things started with their partner Who Should Avoid It: Anybody whos already seen most of this series already Audio /Video Quality: The audio is very well balanced and clear. You can hear both Ninas teachings as well as the sexual sounds very clearly. The video is a little grainy and soft, but I didnt think it was bad enough to interfere with the overall feature. Im guessing from the quality that it was taken from the original VHS master. Music: The Foreplay section only has music during the fantasy scenes where it uses some nice slow and soft jazz. The Dancing section uses slow and sexy music that seems perfect for the subject. [read the full review]

Writer/Director: Toni English Running length: 1 hr.15 min DOP: 12/17/01 Female cast: Nina Hartley, Lauren Montgomery, Keri Windsor, Dee, Bridgette Kerkove, Adajja, Sharon Kane (non-sex) Male cast: Mark Davis, Herschel Savage, Cheyne Collins, Rich Handsome, Joey Ray (non-sex) Audio/Video: The video was great, but again the audio could use some improvement. . 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.

Cast: Nina Hartley, Lauren Montgomery, Keri Windsor, Dee, Bridgette Kerkove, Adajja, Herschel Savage, Mark Davis, Rich Handsome and Cheyne Collins in sex roles; Joey Ray, Johnny Dunn and others in non-sex roles. 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]

Running Time: 80 min.

Initial Reaction: Its every bit as good as the other episodes, but unfortunately does have a slight audio problem. Who Should Watch It : Couples, anybody who values chemistry in their scenes, and anybody who likes a nice and realistic plot with their porn Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for nastier sex and raincoaters Audio /Video Quality: Just as with Naked Hollywood 2: Lust or Love, the audio is clear but way on the quiet side. Its pretty even so it feels more like whoever mastered this DVD wasnt paying too much attention to what they were doing. The video is very clear and free of shadows. [read the full review]

(cover states over 2 hours) Production Date: Jan. 1995 Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Anna Malle, Hank Armstrong, John Decker, Christi Lake, Sahara Sands, Dic Tracy, Ariana, Luc Wilder, Shannon Rush, Magnum, Dallas, and Duane Initial Expectations: After Adam & Eves last fiasco with Nina Hartleys Guide to Seduction, Im not expecting much here. Initial Reaction: Pass it up like you would your sister when you needed a prom date. Who Should Watch It : Prison inmates Who Should Avoid It: People looking for something new since the original features are much better Audio /Video Quality: The audio and video appear to be about the same quality they would have originally been on VHS. The audio is pretty good but has some wind noise and unevenness. It has a slightly muddy sound in parts and the dialogue can be kind of hard to understand at the party. [read the full review]

Running length: 1 hr. 55 min. D.O.P. 11/20/95 Female cast: Nina Hartley, Anna Malle, Christy Lake, Sahara Sands, Shannon Rush Male cast: Hank Armstrong, John Decker, Luc Wylder, Dic Tracy, Magnum, Dallas, Duane Audio/Video: The video was fine, but the audio could use improvement. Normally, the inability to understand clearly what is being said isn't a problem, but since this is an 'instructional' title (wink, nudge) I should point this out. At times this also can be attributed to porn actor's poor enunciation skills. There was some fairly loud piano porn music during the 'instructional' 3-way that was unneeded. Extras: 1 bio of Nina. The Movie: From the ambiguous title, you might think this has to do with gay sex. Nina quickly makes it clear however, that it deals with the 'swinging' lifestyle - something even more foreign to me. But then, I'm a straight, single female who doesn't appear in porn movies or who's not yet trapped in a loveless marriage, living a life of romance novels, Fabio fantasies and quiet desperation.

Cummings, Anthony Crane and several uncredited actors in non-sex roles. Director: Toni English Production date: 4/18/01 (box); 1/17/02 (feature) Length: 79 min. feature, plus 8 min. from volumes three (recap) and five (preview) Extras: A 10-min. bonus scene from Third Eye, seven short biographies (Nina, Lauren, Dee, Keri, Angelica, Mickey, John), three trailers and a slide show with 20 photos. Audio/visual quality: The lighting is extremely gentle, but not so dim that the action can't be seen. The close-ups are well focused. A small amount of enhanced motion ("slo mo") is present in the second scene. There are a few minor blemishes, which mostly consist of an occasional darkening at the corners. Otherwise, the video quality is very good. The audio quality is only average. The music loops noticeably. The narration is flat and occasionally unintelligible. [read the full review]

Writer/Director: Toni English Videographer: Danielle, Henry Parfait Running length: 90 min. D.O.P. 2/7/02 Female cast: Keri Windsor, Nina Hartley, Dee, Lauren Montgomery, Angelica Sin, Lola Male cast: Joel Lawrence, Mickey G., John Decker, Kyle Stone Audio/Video: Very well done. I can't think of anything that annoyed me, and that's saying something. Extras: Bonus scene with Dale Dabone, 3 trailers, photo gallery, preview of the next episode, auto-restart, and bios, from which I actually learned something. Dee is Puerto Rican, and Keri is married to a guy she met shooting pool. The happy couple are also into the swinging lifestyle, though this was less of a surprise. Condoms: Worn by all the men in every sex scene, appearing and disappearing as if by magic. Unfortunately, appearing all too visible during the sex. I have to say that condoms bring down the heat level considerably for me, though I understand and respect their right to wear them. Perhaps there are some different kinds that look more natural, or invisible. [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]

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]

Running Time: 99 min. Production Date: 11/ 30 / 1998 Director: Bud Lee Cast: Cheyenne Silver, Nina Hartley, T. J. Hart, Allysin Chaynes, Chloe, Randy Spears, Chris Cannon and Herschel Savage Initial Expectations: I havent heard anything about Carnal Witness , but I do have fair to high hopes due to some of Adam & Eves recent releases. Initial Reaction: Carnal Witness has perhaps the best plot Ive seen in an adult film. The sex was also a little above average. This is a great movie! Audio /Video Quality: The audio is generally pretty good. Its a little uneven here and there, but nothing that interferes with the movie too much. The dialogue is all easily understood. The video is about average. Most of the picture is slightly grainy. A lot of the scenes take place in fairly dark places, which doesnt help things much. When you consider some of the locations, the video seems a lot better than what it first appears. Music: The music is excellent and extremely varied. [read the full review]

Initial Reaction: Its a pretty good educational feature with a diverse enough cast to make almost everybody feel comfortable. Who Should Watch It : Anybody interested in dancing for their lover but not sure where to start and guys who have trouble moving past rowing the boat and stirring the pot, the official white man dance moves. Who Should Avoid It: Professional strippers Audio /Video Quality: The audio is very well balanced and clear. You can hear both Ninas teachings as well as the sexual sounds very clearly. The video is a little grainy and soft, but I didnt think it was bad enough to interfere with the overall feature. [read the full review]

Initial Reaction: Its a decent introduction to how to tackle some of the aspects to starting swinging. Who Should Watch It : Anybody whos considering swinging. Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who thinks monogamy is the only lifestyle. Audio /Video Quality: The audio and video appear to be about the same quality they would have originally been on VHS. The audio is pretty good but has some wind noise and unevenness. It has a slightly muddy sound in parts and the dialogue can be kind of hard to understand at the party. The video has a slight graininess but it doesnt interfere with the feature. [read the full review]

review from 3/22/2001:
Running Time: 120 min. (including bloopers and out-takes and bonus scene). The feature only lasts about 100 min. Production Date: 3 / 22 / 2000 Director: None given on the compilation. Cast: Cheyenne Silver, Ian Daniels, Ashton Moore, Jack Hammer, Lexington Steele, Shanna McCullough, Anita Cannibal, Johnni Black, Barrett Moore, Randy Spears, Joel Lawrence, Nina Hartley, Monique DeMoan, and Dale DaBone (non- sex) Initial Expectations: The other Signature Series titles Ive seen have been very good compilations, so I expect more of the same. Initial Reaction: The sex is better than in the other Signature Series titles that Ive seen, but the interview lacks. Audio /Video Quality: Of course, the sex scenes vary due to the quality of the original features, but overall they have a good balance and are quite clear. Typical of most outdoor scenes, the interviews lack a little for the audio and are kind of hard to hear. The video, however, is very clear and well lit. [read the full review]

Cox, Kyle Stone, and Nick East Initial Expectations: I enjoy Stuart Canterburys films, and he struck me as a great person to do a Shakespearean porn movie. Adam & Eve can be a mixed bag on their DVDs, but this appeared to be well done. Initial Reaction: A Midsummers Night Cream is a very well done Shakespearian porno. There are a few faults, but theyre fairly minor. Adam & Eve really put a lot of effort into the extras on this DVD, and I think their effort payed off. Audio /Video Quality: As usual with Stuart Canterbury, A Midsummers Night Cream is shot on film, so theres some grain issues. If you want a crystal clear picture, it isnt here. [read the full review]

Initial Reaction: Its very basic, but pretty well done. Audio /Video Quality: The audio is a bit on the soft side, but normally is easy to understand. The video leaves more than a bit to be desired. Its normally very grainy, although it is also normally fairly well lit. Music: None during the educational portion, but theres some nice slow and sexy jazz during the fantasy section thats a bit on the loud side. Menus: The main menu is simple and without any animation. The chapter menu is a bit better, and lets you choose a scene based on a small clip of the scene and a title for it. The Feature: Nina Hartley has been one of the standards of the adult film industry for almost twenty years, becoming one of the most recognizable female adult film stars out there.

review from 7/18/2001:
Running Time: 78 Minutes. Director: Nina Hartley. Cast: Nina Hartley, Missy, Midori, Mickey G., and one other guy. Extras: Bio of Nina Hartley. Lettering was too small. Video/Audio Quality: Picture had a grainy look but it was only slight. Picture overall was okay. Audio was descent for the most part too. Themes: Touching/masturbation, oral, and toys. Review: Nina starts off with Midori and her guy friend (husband?) explaining the intricacies of touching and learning about one's partner. She takes us through the process of sexual awakening and arousal. She points out tips for guys and also emphasizes listening to one's partner. At the end of this segment, Nina helps Midori climax to one hell of an orgasm. Midori shook like a person having a seizure almost. It was something to see. After this Nina whacks off Mickey G. with Missy nearby. There really wasn't much else to the scene. Defintely not as much instructional matter to this scene as there was in the Midori scene.

review from 7/12/2001:
Synopsis : In a very plot heavy release, Nina finds herself caught up in a world of lies and distrust when she runs off with a stranger who attacks her husband. SCENE 1: Billy and Shaena are just finishing up a jog when they are overcome with passion. They take their lust to a barn and proceed to get busy on a hay bale. Shaena sucks on Billy's cock. Billy fingers her hot box and eats her pussy. He then stuffs his big condom covered dick in her and pumps her mish as we get a really nice view of Shaena's pimple covered ass. Billy then spews his load on Shaena's belly to end a hot but too short scene. SCENE 2: Nina, wearing a black short haired wig, and Tony get nasty in a hotel room. Nina extricates his cock from his pants and hits her knees to provide some oral pleasure to him. She strokes his rod, sucks him into her mouth, licks his balls and they head to the bed where Tony fucks Nina with his condom covered dick mish until he spews his load on her tongue. Another very short scene, with the sex clocking in at about 3 minutes in length. [read the full review]

A drifter gives her the ability to do that. However, is it on the husband's expense? Will she leave him forever or return to him? Overall: This movie is definitely intended to be for the couples genre. The plot was corny even for a porn movie and the sex was just not all there. DVD Quality: The image and sound quality is fine.   Extras: The extras include a horrible photo gallery consisting of small sized pictures that are not full screen. LIKES: Shaena performs very well in scene one.  DISLIKES: Nina Hartley should stick to acting only [read the full review]

review from 1/30/2001:
Directed by legendary Bob Chinn, a director who has been in the business when Traci Lords' videos were "legal" (and who actually made a movie or two with her in them), BAD PENNY is a surprisingly pedestrian affair, despite the presence of the equally legendary Nina Hartley, who plays the title role. Even though this DVD has been released under the Adam & Eve "Premium Collection" label, the contents in terms of story and extras are nothing special, and in fact, barely rise above average. Even more disappointing, the mature but still beautiful Ms. Hartley only appears in two straight guy-girl scenes, both of which take place in the same room with the same guy! So in reality, the viewer gets only four different scenes in this flick, none of which are wholly memorable. The plot is about seems rather complicated at first, but once you realize that the story really doesn't go anywhere, you can break it down to its basic elements. [read the full review]

Running Time: 77 min. (cover states 60 min.) Production Date: 11 / 20 / 1995 Director: Nina Hartley Cast: Nina Hartley, Anna Malle, Hank Armstrong, and John Decker Initial Expectations: Ive had mixed results from this series, so Im keeping an open mind. Initial Reaction: Its okay for a start, but doesnt go into too much detail. Who Should Watch It : Anybody looking for a few basic tips for getting started with anal play Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who wants an in depth look at anal play Audio /Video Quality: As usual with this series, the technical aspects are lacking a bit. The audio is often clear, but the balance isnt always even. The video looks like it hasnt been touched since the original video transfer. Theres quite a bit of grain and the video is often a bit fuzzy. Music: The music is the standard porn style. It starts off very soft and unobtrusive, but moves on to become loud and annoying while adding a little mood to the sex. Menus: The menus are pretty basic. [read the full review]
Endorphin's
review from 11/29/2000:
Pros: Educational porn, Anna Malle's legs Cons: poor sound takes away from the educational factor, only two chicks, bad choice of shots Juvenile remark: She said "rectum"! I admire educational porn and try to stay open to the fact that it it will not meet the intensity and variety of other porn. But, I found myself rather dissappointed with this one. The DVD starts out being educational but that does not consume enough time to make it worth while. So, mini-orgy footage is shown to make it more worth your while. Educational part: The educational part is pieced together. There is a scene where Nina Hartley fingers Anna Malle's ass and of course let us know what we need to know about penetrating asses--"The anus never lies". The audio is not well balanced. If you set the volume so that you can hear what is being said you will wake the neighbors once Anna starts to moan. Although, it was nice seeing Anna wiggle around on fingers. Another scene is just with Nina and some diagrams outside. [read the full review]

(zero stars)
review from 3/29/2001:
Pre-Viewing Expectations I'm not expecting a traditional skin flick with this feature. It should be more of a tutorial layout, with some demonstrations of the use of toys. The Main Event The movie opens with a monologue by Tina Hartley describing several class of toys, such as vibrating, penetrative toys, tactile toys, sensory depravation toys, and constrictive toys. She talks about safety, such as using flaired base anal toys so they aren't sucked in, and not placing the penis into something that doesn't open or easily streach, such as bottles. After the discussion of toys, the women from the three demonstration couples gets to pick out a few toys for them to try. While the women pick out toys, the guys are trying to race vibrating toys across a glass table. As Nina says, one needs to be able to laugh at sex, as it is sweaty and hair in the face fun. The three couples are left to their own devices, with Nina going from couple to couple talking about what they are doing, the toy being used. [read the full review]

Initial Reaction: Its a surprisingly great couples movie. Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting something soft, romantic, and erotic Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting something that feels unique Audio /Video Quality: The audio is clear and well balanced for the most part, but a couple areas seem a bit off. The video has a bit of grain, and is normally well lit. There are a few shadows that interfere, but for the most part they enhance the scene rather than detracting from it. Music: The music is pretty typical porn music, but is balanced very nicely with the rest of the audio. [read the full review]

Cast: Nina Hartley, T.J. Hart, Tina Tyler, Dale DaBone, James Bonn (and Edith the Iguana, in a non-sex role) Director: Bob Chinn Production date: 5/30/99 Length: 81 min. Extras: four biographies, 17-photo slide show, 19 min. of previews (and a static scene selection menu, although box says "full motion") Audio/visual quality: A narrow artifact appears along the lower edge of the screen, but is fairly easy to ignore. Light levels vary noticeably at the beginning, probably due to changing cloud cover during different portions of the dialog. Otherwise, visual quality is quite good. Sound levels are low, though not overly so. Audio has good clarity. (Great sex sounds; no dubbing!) Music is gentle, upbeat and unobtrusive. Why I chose this DVD: I was intrigued by the scenario of an older woman with a younger man. Nina Hartley is 40 here, and Dale DaBone is 27. First impression: It's a slow simmer, yet surprisingly sexy. [read the full review]

Synopsis : Snooty socialite Nina is on the way to a birthday celebration when she experiences car trouble on a lonely stretch of highway. Dale comes to her aid but experiences troubles of his own. SCENE 1: Tina and TJ are lying in bed perusing the latest Adam and Eve catalog. They become so turned on by the sexy products that they get busy with each other. Tina caresses TJ's body, they kiss, Tina plays with TJ's clit thru her frilly panties and sucks on TJ's nipples. Tina then licks TJ's very pink pussy. Not to be outdone, TJ returns the favor and sucks on Tina's nipples, eats her pussy and fingers her clit. The sexy ladies then embrace in a hot cuddle to end their sexy scene. SCENE 2: In a fantasy scene, Nina imagines herself photographing Dale in the buff. In her fantasy she becomes so turned on that she gorges herself on his big dick, licking and stroking it to rigidity. She continues to stroke him til he spews his load on her upturned face. SCENE 3: It's Dale's turn to fantasize. [read the full review]
