and with:
Barrett Blade, Billy Glide, Doni Blass, Randy Spears and Trent Saluri

Directed By: Bud Lee

The Director
What’s Bud Lee gotta be, about 108 years old by now? Whatever his age, he does prove even a grizzled old veteran can morph with the times. He’s gone from the plot-driven mini-movie features of the eighties to today’s balls-to-the-walls, all-sex and gonzo ideal fairly well in terms of lensing the sex- but his pacing could be better at times and some scenes in this DVD suffer from a lack of momentum build. The disc, a compilation of vignettes with miniscule set-ups is a little uneven at times, but shows he can direct decent, high-octane porn given the right performers. Only a couple less inspired moments keep this DVD from being a ‘must have.’

One Note
It has bothered me recently that Jenaveve Jolie bears a striking resemblance to some other past porn star. A resemblance remarkable enough that I can’t get it out of my mind – yet I guess not remarkable enough for me to actually recall which star it is! It has been bothering me, but it all goes out the window right away in the first scene of this flick. JJ(2) is long, lean, ultra-tanned and blessed with breasts too large, too perfectly shaped and too proportioned to be natural (as opined by Sportyone on www.sportyone.com.) Real or not - they are a thing of beauty. Her long, dark cascades of loose curls frame a beautiful face with high, model-like cheekbones and a lusciously full-lipped mouth. If anyone mouth in porn deserves the Angelina’s surname, it is Jenaveve and her lovely lips

Now the Sex
The viewer gets a great chance to ogle every bit of this perfect specimen(Jenaveve Jolie), as the camera slowly and longingly scans her entirety as she lies naked on a massage table waiting for the hands of Barret Blade. This is some great, if not revolutionary, camera-work. As Blade begins to warm-up her skin and prepare her for the rub-down of a lifetime, the camera continues to pan her luscious frame, following his hands and eliciting oh-so-slight and sexy mews of pleasure from our heating-up frisky kitty. By the time Blade begins to knead her wonderful mams and drift southward to spread her tantalizing legs, both the viewer and JJ(2) are ready for action and breathing heavily. After some great tongue and digital foreplay that elicits a screaming orgasm from Jen, the heat is on! After her oral, She lies face down on the table and returns the favor while being fingered by Blade. She is an eager oralist, deepthroating him with ease all the while humming and purring contentedly over his cock. Blade then lies her on her back and slides into her. A great way to view her incredibly strong, taut and pierced tummy– and a wonderful way to watch her great facial expressions of ecstasy as she dirtily eggs him on. JJ2 is a willing and wonton participant, looking adoringly into his eyes with intensity as she howls her pleasure and braces herself on her arms to go reverse cowgirl. This is another superb camera angle, giving full-view of her body as she jumps up and down on Blade’s tool. The couple also engage in some canine sex and spoon before he finishes up by hitting it in mish and unloading all over her beautiful, smiling face. Not too shabby a way to start a DVD when you’re particularly anticipating at least two other scenes.

And of course any scene involving Ariana Jollee would have to be one of those scenes! This is a woman who rarely, if ever, disappoints. She doesn’t disappoint here, playing a randy seamstress erotically distracted by Randy Spears’s member during a routine fitting that turns to be anything but routine. Obviously too horny to restrain herself, Jollee quickly fishes Spears’s dick out from his jockeys and attacks his cock with her customary gusto. She bobs that pretty head up and down, lubricates it well and adds a nice handjob while catching her breath and staring admiringly at the source of her pleasure. Even for one who doesn’t really dig the whole gag-scene, Ariana’s BJs are a thing of beauty. Spears begin his assault on her pussy by lying her back and entering slowly in missionary. As is her way, Ariana begins to let out a running diatribe of deep breathing intakes and a running banter vocalizing her excitement. When she begins rubbing herself, making those soundless gasps and rolling her head, her pleasure is almost palpable. Spears stops and starts, allowing his own pleasure to subside…who wouldn’t have trouble staying off an early ejaculation with this womanly sexual machine? He pile-drives her into a frenzy before going Reverse CG. Ariana again is muttering to herself and truly getting off, as first she then Spears rub her pussy raw.

But she wouldn’t be Ariana Jolle if she didn’t go anal, and she soon begins to pleadingly instruct Spears that is what she wants. He goes deep and fast and she rubs herself into a delirium, offering up her delectable rear in RCG while leaning alternately forward and backwards. Any guy trying to seduce his girlfriend into some anal magic need only have that girlfriend watch Ariana in action. Her pleasure is so obvious when Spears picks up the pace that it’as gotta be contagious! He also hits that ass in a modified mish-spoon with her leg raised high for maximum thrusting – and Jolle cums again rather forcefully, becoming visibly upset when he withdraws. She finishes him off nicely with her mouth – expertly sucking his head as he cums onto her tongue. His cumshot is a little weak, but she lovingly accepts it with gratitude

That was one of the scenes I had picked this disc to see. Knowing that I would still be treated to Marie Luv – the lovely object of my obsession and my primary reason for getting this disc – made the movie seem too good to be true! However, I’m afraid that either my lust for Marie has begun to subside into the realm of reality or she has begun to phone in her scenes. Although Marie is as pretty as ever, this scene just didn’t seem to heat-up to her standards and left me a little disappointed. It is a work-out vignette with Billy Glide. Marie’s extremely tight, slender but strong frame does appear as if she is quite comfortable beneath a barbell. We get an excellent view of her sinewy legs from a long camera shot just before she rests the barbell down and decides to begin an entirely different kind of work-out on him. She greedily consumes his cock using the bench and barbell for leverage as she sucks him while upside down. This would be an interesting angle, except that it leaves her beautiful face completely obscured and in the dark. Thankfully, she takes a seat on the bed and again has a go at Glide’s member before lying back and receiving some oral from him. Although we get an excellent close-up of her shaven pussy and Glide’s mouth-ministrations, the oral doesn’t heat beyond simmer (and this is coming from a man who adores cunnilingus in movies and always wants more!) I guess part of my frustration is that Lee (as most directors are wont to do) quickly segues into the sex when it appeared the performers were working up toward a decent climax. Connoisseurs of the female orgasm, such as this reviewer, are often left hanging in anticipation, eagerly hoping for but never receiving the joy of witnessing the woman receive her joy. Alas, we move to a mish on the weight bench. The action here is captured a little too much in that plumbers-eye-view for me, especially when the object viewed is as pretty as Marie Luv, and I also don’t care for the overdone withdraw-and replace thing becoming so common. To this reviewer, that move is just a distraction that breaks up the continuity and pace of a scene. Whatever the reason, this scene doesn’t really catch fire. When Luv asks for Glide’s cock in he ass, it is a promise of great things that goes unfulfilled. Marie use to have such a varied assortment of facial expressions and vocalizations that it pulled the viewer into her scene, but here she is dependent on solely curling her upper lip into a sexy sneer and repeating “Oooh,aaaah Yes!” Glide takes her ass in a spoon and doggie and although it does pick up momentarily here and there, the action is repeatedly and abruptly stopped when Glide has to withdraw and regain his composure…definitely a good way to ruin the pace and energy of any scene! Marie does look lovely, however, with her smiling face covered in man-juice after Glide shoots a rather decent-sized load on her! Not a terrible scene, by any means – just lacking the usual Marie Luv fire and suffering from an absence of momentum.

Avy Lee Roth and Nautica Thorn are up next. Nautica is a performer who has truly evolved from a nubile young teen fuck-bunny into a sexually more mature and sophisticated woman quite nicely while resisting the burn-out and loss of youthful appeal so many actresses seem to suffer. She is truly lovely to look at and has an awesome naturally full-figure. Avy Lee is in her element here, using that sexy Spanish accent to its fullest playing a servant caught modeling the lady of the house’s sexy undergarments…and boy does she look good in them! Trent Saluri seems to think so, admiring her figure as Thorn releases a diatribe onto her servant before throwing her to the bed and seeking carnal retribution. She frees Roth’s breasts from the restraint of the sexy Black bra and lavishes them with mouth attention before beginning to strip her of the remaining garments. Nautica pays special oral attention to Lee’s stockinged feet and it is extremely hot to watch (as Saluri is doing!). Avy also begins to explore Nautica, who pushes her back onto the bed and begins munching her biscuit with her delectable derriere in the air for Saluri to in turn taste. The three continue this daisy chain for a bit and then the two ladies help themselves to some double-sided head, holding Saluri’s cock for each other to devour. I must add that all the costume jewelry on the ladies not only added some realism to the “rich-bitch and her submissive servant” theme – they added sparkle and sexiness to the scene! Who hasn’t fantasized about receiving oral from a jewel clad woman of privilege as gorgeous as Nautica Thorn? Add the spicy foreign maid and it is almost too good to be true! Again with the distracting “Glug, glug, glug,” gagging, but still a decent double blow job. Roth then takes her seat RCG on Saluri with Nautica lending a hand cock meets pussy. We get some pussy to mouth action and its always a turn-on to see a daintily fingered hand inserting an engorged penis into a wet vagina. The scene truly scalds when Nautica takes Saluri doggie with Avy Lee beneath them. Nautica has the sexiest pleading squeal and it contrasts nicely with Avy Lee’s deeper rasp as Nautica licks Lee and gets deep-doggied. This is a tableau worth pausing on, as Nautica looks so damn sexy on her hands and knees being plowed into the splayed pussy of an encouraging Avy Lee! When Lee sits up and massages Thorn’s bountiful breast while pulling her hair as Saluri piles-drives into her, the scene really sizzles! My only complaint here is the sound repeatedly fails and whispers just when Nautica is at her howling best! Maddening! The girls switch places and Roth takes him missionary with her legs high above her while Thorn sits on her face – the juxtaposition of Nautica’s pale skin with Roth’s tanned tone is exquisite and just adds to the eyeful this scene is. When Saluri drops a load into Roth’s mouth and she in turn swaps it with Nautica, I was too happy! But when Nautica drools the swapped sperm onto her pressed together tits, it is almost too much! While it may not have the sexual gymnastics or red-hot passion of others, this scene is simply breathtaking in its visual appeal.

Victoria Sweet as a house painter? Not to poor. Were I Doni Blass, I wouldn’t be giving her orders but just lying back and enjoying the view. I have loved Victoria’s beatific smile and cutesy giggle ever since first seeing her and Sweet is the perfect moniker for this woman with the sugary visage and demeanor. While not possessing one of those trumped-up porn harlot bodies, she is a slim and sexy woman with a great girl-next-door appeal. The requisite porn-girl tattoos seem oddly out of place on her body, though.

When Victoria twists her ankle, Blass accepts the chance to soothe her ailing ankles and feet with a nice mouth massage leading to some extracurriculat activities I’m sure he dreamt of when he originally hired her. He leans her up against a wall and laps at that bush and butt while fingering her. He then sits down on the stairwell she was painting and lets her have at his cock. She does so with true affection for it and plenty of saliva (if too much self-gagging) before she lowers herself onto him. The RCG is momentary and we abruptly switch to CG. Seen through the slats of the staircase, she bounces atop Blass’s cock before sitting down to allow him some oral and digital play. I don’t know if it is just my disc that does this, but at this point in the movie, there is a weird, soundless fast-forward effect that takes about 5 seconds and is totally weird if intended. Blass finger bangs Sweet, but seems to let up everytime he has her on the brink. While erotic at first, this becomes a bit upsetting when he repeatedly does so. As I’ve said previously, I enjoy watching a beautiful woman in the throes of orgasm and it bothers me when directors disallow for this happening. We do, hoever, get some good oral play on Sweet, as Blass fairly rubs his entire bald head on her twat while eating her out with relish. He then slides up into her spread gams as she lays back on the stairwell landing and accepts his plunging cock. A special treat from Lee as he allows Blass to cease fucking and administer some more cunny-play, however it still seems rote and never rises to the level it could. Sometimes I think directors use cunnilingus merely as a way of allowing the male to regain composure and ward off cumming! Either way, Blass returns between her loins and resumes some hard pounding as seen from above the performers. He finishes up by, of course, cumming in Sweet’s mouth and getting cleaned up by it. A rather abrupt ending to a lukewarm scene and a rather abrupt ending to a disc with plenty of promise that somehow just barely delivers.

Summary
I have been picking up great speed on my recent Marie Luv kick. She has provided me with many hours of erotic joy and her looks continue to haunt my dreams. I love Ariana Jollee, but she had been relegated to also-appearing status during my Luv-obsessed recent viewings. However, Ariana acquits herself better than Marie here, and to be honest the entire show is stolen not by either of them – but by Jenaveve Jolie. Neither an old familiar face nor a fresh new one, Jenaveve has been around just long enough for the true epicureans of porn to recognize both he and her value. She was virtually new to me, but has motivated me onto a new obsession and I will be renting/viewing much more of her material now! The Jolie/Jollee tandem makes this entire disc worth renting. Without her scene to complement the consistent quality of Ariana, this would’ve been a DVD searching for momentum.

The DVD
