Pacific Root Review

Reviewed by Joe Shaver  on  11/11/2006

As much of an art film as a pure porn film PACIFIC ROOT is a stunner. Still betraying his origins as a softcore director Esser’s camera is somewhat restless and the editing is still a mite anxious, but, ah, those Aussies!

The film opens with Andy Stone and Mitch Milano running in out of the rain. They lovingly dry one another off and we cut to both naked on the bed on their knees, belly to belly, kissing. Andy’s cock is up and raring to go but like any good lover he doesn’t rush to gratification. He waits for his partner to get in the same state and aids him in that by easing Mitch back so he can suck Mitch’s cock. Both are beautiful and the illusion they create is that this is love and not merely sex. Andy’s raging cock will eventually find its gratification in Mitch’s ass but not before the boys have taken their own sweet time getting there. Andy drills Mitch good and proper, causing Mitch to cum while being fucked. Andy withdraws in time to spray his seed, joining Mitch’s on the latter’s belly.

Blue-eyed Rick Chester is one gorgeous stud; and we ogle him as the shower cascades down over his luscious body. Rick gives special attention to his more than ample uncut meat, which is soon at full mast. (So is mine!) Outside on the balcony a lucky young Jake Harvey waits. Rick enters onto the balcony drying himself off and moves toward Jake who rises to meet him. They engage in a passionate kiss. Unable to resist any longer, Jake kneels to worship Rick’s rigid mouthwatering flesh. Jake’s shorts are tenting out when he returns to Rick’s lips. Rick lowers the shorts, freeing the rampant rod, and then lowers himself to suck it. After this, Jake bends over as Rick’s cock prepares to enter his ass. There is a quick close-up of Jake’s face as he eagerly awaits the anal invasion.
After fucking for some time the boys decide to take things inside to a bed where Ty Easton is sleeping. As Rick and Jake return to their lovemaking, Ty wakes and joins in the fun. The scene that follows is an absolute scorcher! Cocks are sucked which moves into a daisy-chain suck. Then young Jake performs analingus on Ty while Ty continues to fellate Rick. An extreme close-up shows us a hard cock slowly insinuating itself into an ass—Jake is fucking the older stud! With his cock plunging into Ty’s ass, Jake leans forward to join Ty in sucking Rick’s cock. After more vigorous fucking, Jake withdraws his cock from Ty’s ass to shoot on Ty’s back; Rick removes his cock from Ty’s mouth to do likewise. Rick and Jake then share a kiss before Jake gives Ty a helping hand and pumps forth a fine load from the uncut prick. “Thanks, guys!” Ty utters in the only dialogue we have heard thus far.
From Rick in the shower to Ty’s admission of gratitude this was one of the hottest scenes I have ever seen. I had to stop and rest after it. Chances are you will, too.

Jake returns in the following scene. This time he’s paired with Andy. There in the living room they quickly shed their clothes, get onto the sofa, and take turns sucking each other’s cock. Unlike many of the Europeans, these Australian lads know how to suck a dick. They are also passionate kissers.
We move to the balcony where they are still locked in a kiss. More cocksucking continues. Andy eats out Jake’s ass and the versatile young beauty seems anxious to have more than a tongue up there, but for the present he settles for having Andy’s cock once more in his mouth.
The film cuts to reveal them back inside on the sofa. A fire is now burning in the grate. After more osculation and Jake giving a lick to Andy’s armpit and dick, Jake looks up at Andy and we have the film’s second line of dialogue: “I want to fuck you.”
“OK,” Andy whispers, and once again we have a close-up of Jake’s long dick disappearing between plump buns.
Andy’s face betrays some agony, but the cock between his legs is as stiff as the cock within him.
Abruptly we find their roles reversed. Jake is lying on his back and Andy’s cock is driving into his ass. They revert to the doggy position and—with Andy’s cock still inside him—Jake spews his load onto the sofa. (Jake could mess up my sofa anytime.)

Ted Kelly and Ivo Costa make their appearance at the pool. Ted does little for me. Ivo scores somewhat better. Ivo has a pierced lip and his lips that have been kissing Ted are soon around Ted’s cock. His sucking of Ted goes on for far too long before Ted reciprocates and then fucks Ivo. The music in the first part of their scene is particularly annoying. This scene is not on a par with the others.

Things are much better when Ivo is paired up with Ty for the subsequent scene. Wearing only a white robe, Ivo waits for Ty in the bedroom. When Ty enters, Ivo jumps up and they kiss. (I really didn’t have to tell you that, did I?) Ivo undresses Ty to get at the goodies But Ty first tosses him onto the bed and jumps upon him. He gives Ivo a partial tongue bath before swallowing down his dick. Later Ivo does similarly to Ty followed by a nice 69. Ivo face fucks his partner before fucking him proper. I love it when guys illustrate that they can both bottom and top. Both bring forth healthy loads.

The finale is a six-man orgy. Everyone except Ted takes part. Although it begins as a mass of writhing flesh each eventually chooses a partner. Mutual sucking leads to the inevitable fucking. Rick—the new lust of my life—fucks a very happy Ivo; Jack is once again fucking Ty; Andy has returned to Mitch.
The last we see of them they are showering together. Even here they still cannot keep their hands or mouths off one another. The film ends with Mitch lying on the shower floor being showered by the others’ cum.

PACIFIC ROOT is an aesthetic as well as an erotic experience. Together with the earlier AUSSIE BUMS it provides the best encouragement to visit Australia since Kristen Bjorn’s MANLY BEACH. Here is one not to be missed.
