Deconstructing Ava Review

Reviewed by Tongue in Groove  on  11/7/2004

“Deconstructing Ava” is a slick “couples” flick from director Roy Karch. The sex is pretty good, captured well for the most part (more below on that), and there is an appealing lack of acting needed. The female talent ranges from attractive to very cute.

The plot involves a high-end “gentlemen’s” strip club and its customers. In a weird twist, Ava Vincent plays ALL the employees at the club – a stripper, a ticket seller, a ticket taker, etc.

Cute brunette Keiko takes on her date, Tony Tedeschi, on a couch in a private room in the opening scene. There’s some anal pounding and a creampie finish.

Cherokee is a pudgy brunette who dallies with Steve Hatcher in a theater within the club. It’s uneventful, predictable sex that ends in a facial.

The club supplies a fetish room for pervs, and this time it’s a jail cell, where Cheyne Collins plays with blond Lauren Phoenix. Again, not a lot of steam here before Collins drops a load on her pubes.

Cute blond Joelean plays a dominated woman to Barrett Blades. This scene, which takes place in an office, probably had the most sizzle, as Joelean appears to really be into the sex. She smiles as Blade drops his load on her sweet kisser.

Now at home, Ava gets playful with Kurt Lockwood in bed. In an uninspiring scene, Kurt finishes things off with a shot to her back.

This could have been a one-page script. There was no plot to speak of, but there’s a bit of a twist at the end. Karch likes to employ what I derisively call “flower pot” shooting techniques, like having the camera catch the action from behind a flower pot or burning candle on a table. It’s very distracting and kills the mood for me. Roy, please stop it!

The DVD includes the following extras: Photo Gallery, Behind the Scenes, Internet info, and Trailers. No condoms were used.
