The Short Story

Initial Expectations: Adam & Eve can be kind of hit or miss on their compilations. I don’t know why, but there’s something about this one that scares me.

Initial Reaction: It’s a pretty hot comp!

Who Should Watch It : Anybody wanting a nice variety of couples-friendly sex

Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting things really hard and really deep or who thinks couples sex has to be slow and boring

The Technical Stuff

Audio /Video Quality: When it comes to compilations, the technical aspects always vary a little. It’s hard to avoid when you take a group of movies and pick a scene from each. Since most of the scenes here are fairly recent, that isn’t much of a worry here. The audio has a few hollow spots and minor background noises, but for the most part sounds nice. The video is much the same way. There’s a little grain here and there, but for the most part it’s nicely lit and looks quite nice.

Music: The music varies throughout the movie. There are some scenes which are free of music, and others where the music is nicely balanced with the rest of the audio.

Menus: The menus are okay. The main menu has a little animation and didn’t do much for me one way or another. The chapter menu is very basic and lets you choose a scene based on a small clip of each scene and a chapter number.

The Feature

Hard and Deep is another entry in Adam & Eve’s continuing line of compilations. There’s no real theme to connect the scenes as in some of their other compilations, but you still get a little information at the start of each scene to let you know who’s in the scene and where it comes from.

Scene 1 - Keri Windsor and Julian

Keri and Julian’s scene from Naked Hollywood 9 leads things off. Keri, looking absolutely smoking with her hair in breads and wearing a pair of denim overall shorts, works her mouth from Julian’s mouth all the way down to his manhood with soft kisses. She works her amazing tongue around his cock and even takes him into her throat a little, strokes him, and puts her great eyes to good use looking up at him. Julian rewards her with a little tongue and missionary action as Keri lays back on an air hockey table. Julian also fucks her from behind before Keri turns around to suck and stroke him to a nice facial.

This is a very hot scene. As usual, Keri puts out plenty of energy and does an all around fantastic job. She’s nicely matched with Julian here, and although there isn’t a heck of a lot of variety in the scene, the chemistry keeps it going extremely well. This is a very good scene.

Scene 2 - Lita Chase and Mark Davis

Next, Mark takes on Lita, a blonde who seems like she could be very attractive but has her hair done in braids, some large tattoos, and large implants, in a scene from Sex Spell. He’s conveniently in the buff when he finds her, which makes it all the easier for her to start sucking his cock. She moves herself around to turn it into a 69, and doesn’t miss a beat working on Mark’s cock. Mark starts to fuck her missionary style, but then takes a break to sample her snatch a bit more with his tongue before fucking her from behind. Lita ends things by taking Mark’s guy goo on her tits and stroking it to make sure she gets every last drop.

It’s a very well done scene that has great chemistry as well as a nice bit of intensity. Lita and Mark seem to be really into it, and the intensity seems to fit some of Lita’s alternate look. My only problem here is that the video looks like it was stretched to fit the full screen ratio.

Scene 3 - Nikita Denise and Anthony Hardwood

Nikita and Anthony’s pairing from Tell Me What You Want 2 is next. Nikita starts things off putting on a tease while talking to the camera, and then gets down to start sucking Anthony’s cock. Anthony reciprocates with a little twat tonguing and by working Nikita up to four fingers. Nikita lets him fuck her missionary style and then hops on top for a little reverse cowgirl action. Finally, Nikita gets down and takes a nice facial finish.

This is a pretty hot scene. Nikita does a nice job of playing to the camera, and the scene moves along nicely. The chemistry is pretty average, but there’s nice energy. This is a pretty good scene.

Scene 4 - Zana and Nick Manning

Zana takes on Nick Manning in a scene from Amateur Angels 1 in the fourth scene. Zana starts to suck Nick’s cock almost immediately after stripping down, but Luc stops them and has them go inside. Zana continues to give Nick some great head, and even tit fucks him a little. After taking more than most mortal men could, Nick suggests that he get a chance to work on Zana, which she readily agrees to with a full mouth. He aggressively works on her tits and pussy, but doesn’t take long before he wants to sink himself in her pussy. They fuck in a few of the standard positions with Zana growling like a caged animal. They trash talk back and forth throughout the scene and keep the heat nice and high. They finish it up with Zana taking Nick’s pop on her face and swallowing down every drop she can get in her mouth.

This is a great scene with excellent heat and chemistry. As usual, Zana is full of energy and lets go with plenty of trash talking. This seems to be just what Nick likes, and helps the two of them to have great chemistry. This is an excellent scene.

Scene 5 - Calli Cox and Joey Ray

Joey gets some High Class Ass from Calli next. At Nick’s urging, Joey massages Calli’s feet before she lays back and rubs her nub for him. Joey takes over for her, licking her through her panties before playing with her pussy. Calli thanks him properly by taking Joey into her throat several times and teasing his cock with her pierced tongue. She lets Joey give it to her missionary and doggie style before taking his guy goo all over her upper body. Calli licks a bit up, strokes Joey to make sure she gets every last drop, and even looks like she swallows some down.

This is a pretty good scene, but had the potential to be much better. Calli played to the camera extremely well during the foreplay and pop, but when it got to the actual fucking the camera seemed like it was afraid to show much of her, and especially her great face. There was also a lot of obvious slow motion that interfered with the scene for me. This had the potential to be a really excellent scene, but instead it’s just a good scene.

Scene 6 - Shayla LaVeaux and Joel Lawrence

Shayla and Joel keep things going with a scene from Pillow Talk. They exchange oral favor while looking like they’re really enjoying themselves before going at it doggie style and missionary, and finish things up with a pop on Shayla’s stomach.

This is an okay scene. Shayla and Joel have some decent chemistry, but the camera work holds it back from getting too far. I know that Shayla isn’t considered an extremely nasty girl by some, but here the scene feels like it’s being held back. This is easily the weakest scene in the entire compilation.

Scene 7 - Carmen Luvana and Mark Davis

Adult Stars at Home 4 appears next with a scene between Carmen and Mark. Carmen climbs on the bed with Mark and gives him the full oral going over for both his cock and ass. She lays back and lets Mark suck her pussy as well as her toes, and then lets him bone her from behind. They keep things going with a bit of reverse cowgirl and missionary before Mark stuccos Carmen’s pretty face.

As usual with Luc Wylder, this is a nicely done scene. There’s plenty of chemistry and there’s nothing wrong with the energy. Carmen and Mark keep things flowing the entire time and always look like they’re into each other and having fun. This is a very nice scene.

Scene 8 - Layla Jade and Evan Stone

Layla and Evan finish things up with a scene from Nina Hartley’s Anal Kinksters. While Evan has his morning coffee, Layla pours cream all over her rubber dress - covered front. She cleans it up and asks for a punishment, which Evan gives her before he works his tongue around her goody box. Layla thanks him with a proper cocksucking and then lays back for him to fuck her pussy missionary style on the table. Evan also fucks Layla from behind before sliding his cock into her ass as she lays on her side on the table. Finally Evan gives Layla a nice facial to finish things up.

This scene leaves me a little torn, and I’m not quite sure why. It’s straightforward yet creative, and I think that might be what leaves me a little torn and unsure about it. Evan and Layla have very nice chemistry and really keep the scene going well. I liked the scene, but for some reason I have a few reservations about it.

Hard and Deep is a nicely done compilation. It does just what a compilation should do, and puts together a nice selection of scenes which should make you want to see a few of the movies that were featured here. Unlike so many other companies out there, Adam & Eve puts the extra care into the compilation to let you know who’s in each scene and where the scenes come from by tastefully letting you know that information in the corner of each scene for a few seconds as the scenes start. It’s the little details like that which separates a good compilation from a great one, and Adam & Eve has put together enough hot scenes here that this one borders on great. It starts on a definite high note with Keri Windsor and Julian and continues through at a pretty even level until it finishes with Layla Jade and Evan Stone. If you’re looking for a variety of sex scenes to enjoy with that certain someone or have a freshly shaved palm, you can do a lot worse than Hard and Deep.

The Extra Stuff

Trailers are included for Sweet Sounds, Sweetheart Trilogy, Taboo of Tarot, Fantasy Suites, The Fiesta, The Flesh Game, and Forbidden Lust. There’s also weblinks and a bonus scene.

Bonus Scene - Michelle Michaels and Randy Spears

Randy and Michelle’s bonus scene comes from Extreme Behavior. Michelle starts things out looking like she had a near-tragic accident with several sets of red curtains. She’s ties up with the fabric as the wind blows them around, and can’t move her hands to free herself. Randy lets his hands wander across her body, and takes a little lipstick off her lips and wipes it around her tits. He runs a fencing sword around her body and frees her next so that he can lay her back and tongue and finger her twat. Michelle sucks and stroke’s Randy’s special sword in return before climbing up to ride it reverse cowgirl style while he spanks her. They keep it going missionary style until Randy pops on Michelle’s face while she’s covered with one of the red curtains.

Watching this scene, I couldn’t help but wonder what was extreme behavior about it. Instead I wondered why they didn’t have somebody pass a little gas so the movie could have been called Artsy Fartsy instead. That’s not to say that the scene isn’t good. Randy and Michelle put some nice energy into it, it’s just that the scene is extremely artistic and never feels the least bit extreme. There’s almost a bondage feel at the start, but it’s done so light that it doesn’t get to the level of kinky. This is an okay scene.

The Down -n- Dirty Sex Stuff

Themes: Straight, rimming (female > male), and anal

Raincoat Factor: Very high

Condom Usage: Between Julian and Keri Windsor; Mark Davis and Lita Chase; Zana and Nick Manning; Shayla LaVeaux and Joel Lawrence; Evan Stone and Layla Jade

The Bottom Line:

Currently, Adam & Eve’s DVDs can be found online for between $8 and $25, with several stores offering this line of DVDs for around $15. This one’s a great buy at the low end. There’s a nice variety of scenes and not a single dud in the movie. The technical aspects are nicely done and there’s even a bonus scene for an extra. This is a nicely done compilation.

Note to Adam & Eve: Although part of me worries that you’re putting out too many compilations lately, it’s nice to see that you’re able to maintain a high quality in them.
