Beautiful (Wicked) 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. Upon noticing that Julia Ann is there, Stormy loses her appetite and goes home, but she falls asleep only to dream of Julia Ann in fetish gear, dominating her. Because of the strobing lights and creepy music, the scene seems more eerie and less erotic, though Julia Ann looks very hot, and even dons a strap-on to do Devinn in doggie. Devinn wakes with her heart pounding.

At work the next day, Julia Ann witnesses a chance encounter between Stormy and Brad, which makes her furious. But not as furious as she is when Brad turns her down for a date, only to overhear Brad asking Stormy to meet him at the nightclub. Julia Ann places a quick phone call to Steven St. Croix and arranges for him to intercept Stormy at the nightclub before Brad arrives, and 'dispose' of her. Steven drugs Stormy's drink, and as they dance together, she sees through her drugged stupor quick flashes of nighclub patrons sucking and fucking around her. Then Steven throws her into a car and drives away.

She awakens drowsy and drugged in a barren room where Steven is bouncing his dick on Kaylani's face. Through bleary eyes Stormy watches them suck and fuck to dark, heavy, distracting music. A repulsive dwarf taunts Stormy and goes with Steven and Stormy to a remote place, goading Steven to kill her. But Steven can't bring himself to do it, and he leaves. Brad then appears to take her home.

Back at his place, she's a little clingy, so he feeds her his cock for quite a while. Then she thanks him in a few positions while he still has his pants around his knees.

Meanwhile, Julia Ann is showing her true colors, dominating her slave boy, Eric Masterson. Music drowns the dialogue a bit, but we have fetish gear and a biker hat for her, a collar for him, and some shoe-worship mixed in with the sucking and fucking. As the police break in and find them there together, Julia Ann freaks out and spouts a nutty monologue to her mirror.

Extras
Plentiful extras, including a Making of segment, commentary, galleries and stats, brief interviews (Devinn, Stormy, and Julia Ann), and the usual Wicked promos and trailers. The commentary track was out of synch with the movie and went dead silent for several minutes three times, though (no commentary and no sound from the scene). The commentary was also not that inspired -- Michael didn't have much to say, and the banter was rambling and unfocused. The Making of feature also didn't have much to add about how the movie was made -- it consisted mostly of shots of the cameras shooting the scene.

Summary
It would have been nice in a couple of the scenes to have more natural sound and less music volume. But this movie is definitely worth seeing..
