I love 3D. The problem is that most of sucks. 3D is really good for separating foreground and background, but you don't get a true 3D sense of depth. So when you get stuff like ropes being stretched from middle-ground to foreground, the result just doesn't work and looks awful.

Rack-o-Rama is a great example of everything that's wrong with 3D. The technology uses the old red/blue separation; they shoot the scene with two cameras. They then put a color-cast across each--one is red and one is blue. When you wear the 3D glasses (included with the DVD), the idea is that your right eye looks through the blue side and sees the blue image but can't see the red side. Your left sees the red side and not the blue. Your brain puts the two images together.

It doesn't work. Well, it works a little bit, but not as well as it ought to. If you've got color-blindness issues (a lot of men do), it doesn't work so well. Red/Blue works much better in B&W images, but this movie is shot in color. And as I said above, 3D is better for separating near and far, but doesn't work on extremes. In-your-face stuff just doesn't work at all, and there's plenty of that here.

The sets don't help. In theory it would work great, since they're all heavily loaded with detail and stuff to look at, but instead it just looks like a mess. Janet Jade's set is such a riot it just gives me a headache.

Luckily you choose a 2D version of the movie, which I did after seriously giving this a try in 3D both on my computer and on a normal television set. I've got a lot of other 3D stuff so I tried everything I could to make this work. It works fine--in 2D.

So if you eliminate the 3D gimmick, you're left with about four scenes totalling a little under 2 hours. Three white girls and one black, all super-big tit solo-masturbation action. Kylee is a blonde, the others are brunettes. Cindy and Kylee's boobs look fake, the others are natural. And you get a lot of the strip-show masturbation routines you expect from Score models: lots of rubbing, bouncing, sometimes oils or cream, fingers, vibrators and dildos. Cindy does a little light bondage.

In 2D it's not bad. The girls are usually at a normal distance from the camera for showing-off, come close (too close for 3D) here and there, and then are often very far for actual masturbation, so if you expect some close 3D shots of dildo-pumping, you won't get it (though Janet does some up-close titty-fucking with a big dildo).

In 2D, the production is quite good. Score usually puts out a quality product, and they're not stingy with the chapter-stops either.

Special Features: No extras, just trailers for other movies, ads for their websites and trolling for new models

Final verdict: Don't buy it for the 3D, you'll be disappointed. If you like strip-show style masturbation from busty models, it's good stuff. If you decide to try the 3D (and why not, if you bought it), it's best viewed with a couple aspirin.
