Private Ninn 1: Perfect Review

Reviewed by Breasty  on  12/11/2002

While pople who have never seen a Michael Ninn film before will be favorably be impressed by Perfect, fans of Ninn may feel let down. At least I did. The new technology has not been used imaginatively. The overall look of the film is far superior to most porn, but it is not up to the standard set in the best porno of all time, Ninn's Shock, and his other geat, Dark Garden (and even Ninn's somewhat bizarre, David Lynch meets porn, Ritual or the more playful and very hot Cashmere). Ninn has basically trademarked himself, using the same kind of music, for example, and visual look. The plot is basically non-existent, with a few, repeated voice overs that sound bloated. The cinematography is good, but not as good as Shock or Dark Garden, and the talent, while good enough, just isn't as good as the babes of the earlier films, in my view. Even the sex is less adventurous, confined for the most part to women on women (they're very beautiful, but what happened to all those amazing Euro babes like Vicca and Lea Martini?). Ninn fans will still want to have a look, but will find little new. The second disc has a long video of Jodie Moore playing around a bicycle. The behind the scenes documentaries were quite superficial. I found them disappointingly boring. Perhaps Ninnworks' new releases will prove more stimulating. Or perhaps Ninn's move into Andrew Blake-like "artcore" was just a BIG mistake.
