So, pornography
has become so self-referential that it's common to see movies like POV
Pervert that aren't just about sex acts, they're about particular ways
of shooting pornography. In the process, the casual consumer has been
forced to take a crash course in porn lingo, from A2M to POV to WTF.
This is porn boiled down to its essence. If the feature-length story is
a thing of the past and even vignette set-ups have been superseded by
sex scenes that are purely and unashamedly about sex for the sake of pornography,
then perhaps point-of-view pornography is the final distillation. All
superfluous froth was evaporated the day one bright spark thought, "If
the camera guy could have sex with the girl while simultaneously filming,
then we don't even need some hired gun".
And so all that's left is one girl and one guy with a very steady hand.
Mike John is that man, the self-confessed pervert from whose point-of-view
we see most of the following - though E. Everhard Esq. has a hand, or
other body part, in some scenes - enabling the viewer to experience the
girls in an extremely personal way. That's my take on the theory. Here's
my take on the practice.
Katsumi
This lovely Franco-Vietnamese girl offers Mike's cock a little kiss by
way of greeting. This sort of good-natured smuttiness is a mark of the
action - no one's taking himself or herself too seriously. Katsumi's enthusiastic
blowjobs nearly make Mike come immediately, but it's to his immense credit
that he can not only hang on but also continue filming as they start to
have sex. I don't know how he does it. I mean, just look at her beautiful
eyes, perfect skin and thick-nippled boobs.
Katsumi hops off, blows him and shows how good she is at this, going deep.
And yet, as up close and personal as this may be, you'll still have to
use your imagination to imagine just how good it must feel for Mike to
have Katsumi working her lithe form up and down on his cock. You can see
creating porn this way appeals to cameramen - why hire some guy to have
such pleasure when you can do it yourself? It all makes sense to me!
Similarly, how good can it feel to squeeze into her ass and then have
those eyes looking up longingly as she sucks your cock? Mike knows, but
he ain't saying. He's just content to repeat the above act, several times.
Katsumi lies there looking relaxed and utterly adorable. There's more
anal with attendant ass-to-mouth oral, and from doggy Mike holds the camera
to look down on the super shape of her body. After he's come in her sweet
mouth, he turns the camera round on himself…
Brianna Blaze
Brianna is a very pretty, sparkly sort of girl, 18-years-old and from
Ohio, as we hear in a little chat as she picks out the outfit she'll wear.
It's an off-the shoulder number that shows off her smooth shoulders and
neck rather nicely. I suspect such aesthetic issues are of secondary importance
once the scene proper starts and Brianna gives Mike some very good-looking
head, swallowing his cock with nary a gag nor a tear in sight. She spreads
her long, slim legs to let him into her pierced pussy, which he proclaims
to be the best in the world. Rightly commenting on the cute, sexy moans
she makes, Mike's clearly finding it a bit much and one quick tit-fuck
later, he comes in her mouth. Thus relieved, he can concentrate on the
sex better.
Brianna's dress comes off and she shows her style, riding on Mike's cock.
It's a pleasure to admire her bouncing boobs and full thighs as she moves
herself quite agreeably. Into doggy, Mike can't help but smack Brianna's
bottom as she wiggles and wriggles her way to an apparent orgasm. Back
to missionary, boobs bouncing, Brianna's outrageous hip gyrations finally
set off pop-shot 2, which goes into her mouth and is swallowed like the
first one. She's quite charming and the sex generally gives a great impression
of just how hot it is to be inside her.
Ariana Jollee
The first thing that strikes me about brunette Ariana is her wicked set
of curves, filmed from down low as the camera follows her upstairs where
her lovely ass and boobs are revealed. The second thing is the bewitching
hue of her eyes. Green? Brown? Hazel? What is that colour? Whatever, they
really catch the attention as she goes down on her guy - you may deduce
by the way he says "yeah" and "wow" that he is Erik Everhard, not Mike
John - as his schlong sticks out before the lens like a weapon in a point-of-view
shooter video game, soon finding its way into her shaven slot.
One thing I particularly like about this style of scene is the way it
emphasises the closer, more intimate sensations of penetration. Ariana
looks delighted with the cock now pushing inside her. It's very sexy and
it's again demonstrated when they move to doggy, from where the cock squeezes
into her anus. Ariana holds her ass cheeks open, revealing her gaping
anus, and tastes first a finger and then the cock that have been in her
ass.
Cowgirl anal reveals her pussy opening and closing with the anal sex,
as well as highlighting her scrumptious, tan-lined boobs, before they
move to missionary anal and much ass-to-mouth oral where she gives slow,
deliberate sucks. There's more than a suggestion of real chemistry between
them, and that's without a heavier hint on the behind the scenes clip,
as the sex makes her purr "I want to take you home!" I have to admit I
was thinking something similar about her when she gives her man a tit
fuck and takes his come in her mouth. What an accommodating and genuinely
charming girl.
Alexia Knight
Blonde, tan and pretty, 21-year-old French Canadian Alexia treats us to
a peek at her parts before she kneels to suck Mike. Her lengthy ministrations
duly take their toll on our man and it's not before time that we see her
tits gently moving as he enters her pussy, in missionary. Alexia is cute
indeed but less expressive and this tends to point out just how much the
success of this approach is riding on the girl's contribution, given the
restrictions on shots and the guy's performance.
So, there's lots of missionary sex and breaks for oral, the highlights
of which are always her pretty eyes, but for a rare spell in the movie,
it's beginning to drag. Another limit on the possibilities in terms of
the positions that can work is pointed out as she gets on top, in reverse
cowgirl first but quickly moving to cowgirl. They break for oral and then
get into doggy.
Just as I'm pondering how I wish she'd be more demonstrative, as the sight
of her sweet face looking back over her shoulder is one that will delight
discerning lecherous gentlemen the world over, the highly expressive but
significantly less attractive mug of Mr Mike John leers into the camera.
Now that might put you off, dear viewer, but fortunately Mike's sweaty
efforts in this doggy position pay off, seemingly doing more for her.
A final blowjob and Alexia is treated to Mike's come in her mouth. She
swallows.
Haley
I'd like to keep a lid on it, but let's share about Haley. Young, fresh,
horny? She's all of those things. She's a loose-limbed, limber sort of
a girl with a slim body but ample boobs. One thing I like about her is
how much her looks change as she goes from serious to a toothy grin. Interesting.
What's perhaps more interesting for a movie of this nature is that Haley's
21 and looking forward to doing it with a stranger (Mr John…you start
to get the idea of why he does this work…) in a hotel room. She wriggles
immediately he touches her wet pussy. She gives great head. Her boobs
in glorious motion, she gets on top and rides him. Whatever she's doing
in there is enough to make Mike stop her several times. The minx is trying
to make him come inside her! It's great stuff. She's damn sexy.
Then it's to missionary on the bed. Haley looks hot, in both senses, and
the sex has a great vibe. Seeing her beautiful eyes in another fine blowjob
shot, I can understand why Mike's dedication to duty in the clutches of
this intentional temptress can only go so far, and soon after he just
has to come inside her pussy. It's not all over, as sheet-gripping doggy
sex shows off her great ass but it's the sexy sounds she makes, the sweet
pouts and the sizzling looks over her shoulder that really close the deal
for me. If this is an act, I will buy it, lock, stock and two beautiful
bouncing boobs!
This really is the best of what this form of porn is about - a totally
natural, unaffected girl in the most intimate sex. Well, as intimate as
you can have when the guy's toting a camcorder and is still concerned
with getting you to swallow his come on camera for the first time. But
she does it. She's great. As for Mike, the sheer strain of seeing to Haley's
needs while ensuring his viewers are served with this remarkable footage
leaves him looking like Tom Waits after a bad night in Bangkok.
Katja Kassin
Good-looking German Katja has an amazing big butt, it's true, but I'm
rather glad this movie give me the chance to admire her pretty face for
once, especially after she's done pouting and posing and gets down to
wrap lush lips round Erik's dick. Long lashes bat over beautiful eyes
as she takes her time working over his cock till he comes in her mouth.
Another plus point of the POV style is that the cameraman knows exactly
when to move without delay directly to her face as his cock nudges into
her tight pussy, giving a real sense of immediacy. Katja might just be
the most demonstrative girl in the movie, and also the most "pro" in attitude
as she whispers that her ass needs to be fucked. This request is met immediately.
Missionary anal makes her pussy wink in time.
Wickedly performing ass-to-mouth oral, Katja moves to take it anally in
doggy, treating us to great views of her sensational ass and of course
the invigorating vision of her face looking back as she moans in pleasure.
I'm quivering at the unlikely prospect. Erik is doing it for real yet
he keeps the camera steady while Katja throws in more naughty oral moves
and mutters about tasting ass juices.*
An exquisite shot of her face leads back to more vaginal sex, in cowgirl.
Katja's face and tight, pink pussy look exceptionally alluring, more so
when cowgirl anal sex shows how her labia are all tucked away so sweetly
inside. More athletic oral action is a bonus; great ass shots are essential.
The finale is a tit ride and an ejaculation in her mouth, duly swallowed.
That doesn't really matter - the hot sex with the beautiful German, note
German, girl that precedes really is spot on.
Overall
It must be a couple of years at least since I last watched a Mike John
movie, but POV Pervert makes me wish I'd checked up on him sooner. I was
pleasantly surprised. With the able assistance of Erik Everhard duly noted,
Mike takes the credit because he really has got his technique down, even
if it's potentially at the expense of a heart attack. Even if it had just
been for the pleasure of encountering Haley for the first time, I would
be rating this movie highly, but it's got more to recommend it than that.
The cast is strong all round and the style is refreshingly different.
The sense of immediacy is powerful and persuasive.
So maybe, at around 2 hours and 50 minutes, the movie is overlong, though
I rarely felt it dragged when watching a scene or two at a time. Viewed
all at once, maybe the same style of scene, every scene, can become a
little too much. However, such is the appeal of these girls that I find
it hard to imagine many viewers will be able to make it through the whole
thing anyway. When talking porn, that's clearly a compliment.
As well as casting aside the various aspects I alluded to earlier, POV
Pervert also eschews for the greater part the sort of impersonal porn
performance we're too used to and shows some great girls doing what comes
naturally, albeit for money and in front of the camera. And with the POV
Pervert.
The funny thing about all this is that despite the way Mike too readily
disparages himself as a pervert and adds in such porno requisites as come
swallowing or ass-to-mouth, ironically labelled as "romantic", in a strange
sort of way this is romantic. Not in the moonlight and roses sense,
of course, but isn't it about something we're all after - the human contact,
the intimacy - but we (the fellows, at least) are just too damn male
to admit it? Or have I got this wrong; is it really just about a dirty
old man lusting after young girls?
I should note that I was watching Louis Theroux's latest documentary about
life in a Nevada brothel while considering POV Pervert, and the parallels
between this and the men who seek companionship with working girls are
compelling. I sense this train of thought could get rather ugly, so let's
leave it there. Bottom line: recommended.
DVD Comments
POV Pervert is backed up with a full half-hour bonus scene, featuring
young brunette Demi Marx in anal action. With another amiable girl, it's
as good as the rest of the movie. There's also around 8 minutes of behind
the scenes action, with Katsumi posing for photos, Erik and Ariana in
instructive chat for gossip fans and a blooper from there scene where
she's worried that it's not just gas coming from her ass, and Mike worries
that he's going to have a stroke after seeing to Brianna! The picture
quality is good, but I did notice some rather blotchy effects on skin
tones in places. Perhaps this, and some blocking in the bonus scene, is
the price paid for such a packed disc, though whether this is unavoidable
is another matter.
*Pedantic scatological footnote - As a side issue, I've often wondered
about the "ass juices" to which many girls, like Katja, refer. What exactly
are "ass juices"? Rectal mucus? Lube? Enema residue? Shit? Let's be honest
about this - why talk in euphemism? If girls really like to taste
poo-flavoured cock, given that we can actually show them sucking it, why
can't they just say it? Ass juices, my ass…
