Deep Throat (VCA) Review

Reviewed by classic connoisseur  on  1/8/2003

Deep Throat is perhaps the most famous porn film of all time. It is certainly a good movie, but certainly not one of the best. It isn't in the same class as films such as The Opening of Misty Beethoven or The Devil In Miss Jones. I found the soundtrack to the movie, which was original music, to be quite fitting and to give the movie a nice feeling. The title track especially is a catchy tune, "don't row a boat, don't get your goat, that's all she wrote, deep throat" it does stick in your head.

The plot to the movie what there is of one is that Linda Lovelace isn't enjoying sex as much as she'd like, so she and her friend throw an orgy, this doesn't get Linda's bell's ringing though so Linda's friend talks Linda into seeing a Doctor played by Harry Reems. He discovers that her clitoris is in her throat, and encourages her to learn the art of deep throat starting right there with him. This really gets her bells ringing. This is the basic outline of the plot.

The film is a bit short running right at about 60 minutes, but it really doesn't seem like it needs to be any longer and it wraps up nicely in the alotted time. The video quality is pretty good for this film, everything is clear and looks good, colors don't bleed or look too faded. For a 30 year old porn film I think it looks very good. The audio is very good also. Sound is clear there didn't appear to be any problems with the soundtrack, and when everyone spoke it was easily understandable.

The sex in this film was pretty good and this movie is a must have for oral sex fans. This film also contains vaginal, and anal sex too. For classics fans this one is probably one you'd want to have because it is such a classic. Even though I don't consider it a great film it is certainly good, and one I watch regularly.
