Initial Expectations: This has been an amazingly good series so far, and I have no doubt it’s going to keep going that way.

Initial Reaction: It’s well done, but I didn’t care much for its views on marriage.

Who Should Watch It : Couples, anybody who values chemistry in their scenes, and anybody who likes a nice and realistic plot with their porn

Who Should Avoid It: Anybody looking for nastier sex and raincoaters

Audio /Video Quality: Thankfully, the audio problems that have plagued the last couple episodes of Naked Hollywood seem to be disappearing. It’s still a little on the low side, but much more tolerable than the last couple times. There are a few places that are a little unbalanced, but for the most part it’s very clear and nicely balanced. The video is much the same way. The lighting is very even with almost no shadows to plague the visibility. There’s barely any grain and the picture’s normally clear right out to the edge. The corners are a little fuzzy in some parts, but that’s about the only problem with the video.

Music: The music balance changes slightly throughout the feature. Sometimes it’s a bit on the loud side, but normally it’s well balanced with the rest of the audio. Surprisingly, there isn’t music in every scene, or if so, it was so low in one scene that I couldn’t hear it when deliberately listening for it.

Menus: Surprisingly, the Naked Hollywood series is keeping the menus basically the same. Normally I don’t like this, but as a series, it gives it a nice feeling of continuity and is another thing that holds them together. The main menu is nicely animated, and the chapter menu lets you choose a scene based on a fairly artistic arrangement displaying small clips of each scene.

The Feature: After a bout five minutes rehashing what happened in Naked Hollywood 3: Wired: Love in the Electronic Age, things move along. This time, Naked Hollywood revolves around marriage. The girls start out going to a wedding, and then find themselves involved in circumstances about marriage, such as finding out they’re involved with a married man, throughout the rest of the episode.

Keri Windsor starts out taking on married man Joel Lawrence in the mens room during a wedding reception. As usual, it starts out as a fun scene and is helped along by the kind of goofy smile on Joel’s face that seems to summarize that he knows he shouldn’t be doing this there, but he’s enjoying it too much to walk away. They get the heat going very well, and keep it going as Joel eats and fingers Keri’s pussy. Keri gets extremely vocal, which is probably what kept most of the people out of the bathroom out of fear of being caught by the blast when somebody’s backlog exploded. Somebody does try to get in before they start fucking, but they chase him off and keep on going. Joel energetically fucks Keri standing up from behind as well as on the sink, and I dang near expected to hear the fire alarms going off with the heat between them. They seem to spurn each other on throughout the scene, and it ends up as possibly the hottest scene in the first four episodes. Joel finishes things off by popping on Keri’s feet, and she ends things by bringing her foot to her mouth, licking it off, and sucking on her toes. Needless to say, it’s an amazing scene!

After their guests leave, newly married couple Angelica Sin and Kyle Stone get busy in the reception hall. Dang! Where the heck was this place when Mrs. Knight and I got married???!!! No relatives or nothing around. Mrs. Knight and I could barely kiss until we got back to the hotel room without having our picture taken let alone do the stuff to each other we really wanted to! Kyle starts out tonguing Angelica’s twat as she coos away, and then drops his drawers so she can swallow his schlong. Angelica also plays with it a bit, and even jokes a little as she works him over. Angelica gets the mandatory reverse cowgirl out of the way before bending over a table for Kyle to pump away from behind. Kyle finally ices Angelica’s butt with his creamy ball butter frosting to end things as they both finish with a smile. It’s a fun scene that has some nice chemistry.

After working at it throughout the wedding reception, John Decker finally starts to get Lauren Montgomery out of her clothes back in her kitchen. She guides him into living room where she finishes stripping down and then lets him tongue her tantalizing twat as she stands and lies before him. She returns the favor with a nice slow blowjob before crawling forward onto John’s cock. John also fucks Lauren from behind, and finishes things off with a decent pop on her back. It’s a very good scene with some good chemistry, but it falls a little short of some of Lauren’s previous scenes. It is a nice and slow scene, however, and keeps a fairly realistic feel and pace.

Nina Hartley hooks up with former lover Mickey G., who’s now going through a divorce, in the next scene. They take their time warming each other up orally before Nina lays back for Mickey to maul her muff with his meat. She turns around for Mickey to fuck her from behind, and finishes things with his ball butter on her butt. It’s another fairly hot scene, but it feels quite a bit shorter than the other scenes. It’s another slow scene, like the previous scene with Lauren, but for some reason this one didn’t do quite as much for me. It does a very good job leading into the scene romantically, but maybe it was that it felt a little too soft as the scene continued on.

Finally, Dee goes to work on married bi-sexual woman Lola after Lola shows her what she has to offer as an artist. Dee strips Lola down and slides her tongue and finger and Lola’s snatch before laying back on the floor and let Lola tongue her snatch. The move off to sit next to each other so that each girl can play with her new friend’s pussy, and finishes things off with some nice passionate kissing. Dee and Lola work very well together, and keep things fairly tame but there’s still some nice intensity and chemistry.

Naked Hollywood scores another success in its fourth installment. As usual, it’s well acted and has some nicely realistic sex. It shows some decent perspectives of marriage, but unfortunately they’re predominantly negative. Three of the four main characters have sex with somebody who’s currently married, and only one of the three are even thinking about getting a divorce. Even the happily married couple can’t make it to the end of their wedding night without a huge fight. As somebody who thinks marriage is a great institution and one that is worth saving, Naked Hollywood 4 is a little depressing. Would it have been so hard to show one couple that’s been happily married for a few years that still has an active sex life? It’s still well done, but a little more balance could have made it a bit more enjoyable for everybody.

Extras: Of course, there’s web links. A DVD without web links is like a Arkansas family tree without a couple circles. Bios are included for Nina Hartley, Dee, Lauren Montgomery, Keri Windsor, Angelica Sin, Mickey G., and John Decker. Each bio includes a little personal information and a still photo of the star. The photo gallery lasts about three minutes with about nine seconds per nice looking snapshot or full screen photo. Trailers are included for Invisible, The Puppeteer, and The Secret of Harlot Hill.

A bonus scene from The Third Eye with April and Dale DaBone is also included. They skip the foreplay stuff and get right to the fucking with Dale pounding away on her from behind. Dale stops to eat and finger April’s pussy a little before she hops on him for a ride. April finishes him off with some great head and even manages to take Dale all the way in her mouth a few times before taking him all over her face and in her mouth. It’s a very hot scene, just as I’ve come to expect from April.

Themes: Straight, spanking, and lesbian

Raincoat Factor: Medium

Overall: Most Adam & Eve titles can be found for between about $15 and $25 with many stores offering them for under $20. This is a very fair price for this DVD. It’s well done and realistic, although I felt this episode was a little overly negative towards marriage. The audio lags a bit, but the video is nicely clear. There’s a few decent extras, including a bonus scene.

Note to Adam & Eve: It’s nice to see the audio improving slightly, but a little more work on it would really help it out since this was the sole thing which held back the technical quality. A few more chapters would be nice, especially in the beginning. Rather than combining the previous happenings and credits to one chapter, please break them apart. Also, please separate the sex and non-sex scenes into separate chapters.
