Say Aaah, This Won't Hurt A Bit Review

The Little Details

Running Time: 80 min.

Production Date: 7 / 7 / 1999

Director: Jim Enright

Cast: Alexa Rae, Ginger Paige, Tara, Brad Armstrong, Kyle Stone, and Nick East in sexual roles, and Jim Enright in a non-sex role

The Short Story

Initial Expectations: The more I saw of Alexa, the more her raging ego got to me. I’ve enjoyed many of Jim Enright’s movies, but with her leading up this one I’m not going in with too high of hopes.

Initial Reaction: I’ve had more enjoyable doctor’s visits.

Who Should Watch It : Alexa Rae fans

Who Should Avoid It: Anybody wanting good technical aspects and sex scenes that normally move at a decent pace

The Technical Stuff

Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are much weaker than I normally expect from Wicked. The audio is clear, but the balance varies from scene to scene. Sometimes it’s nicely balanced and other times the bed makes more noise than the performers. The video is even worse. There’s a bit of pixelation to the feature, but even worse is the lighting. It’s extremely inconsistent, even in individual scenes rather than from scene to scene, and some of it is so dark that I wonder if they even had so much as a pair of treble lights to help light the scenes.

Music: The music is normally very slow and very boring. At least it doesn’t overpower the rest of the audio most of the time.

Menus: As usual, Wicked put some decent care into the menus. The main menu blends some fun animation with a few clips from the movie, and the chapter menu lets you choose a scene based on a small clip of each scene and a scene number.

The Feature

Alexa Rae has just gotten a job as a candy striper at the local hospital. She’s worried about being accepted, and really wants to get it on with Doctor Brad Armstrong. Doctor Brad has some of the same ideas, as does head nurse Tara. It appears that Alexa joined just the right hospital.

Scene 1 - Alexa Rae and Brad Armstrong

Alexa starts things out fantasizing about giving Jim Enright a sponge bath before he magically turns into Brad. She lets him kiss his way around her body a bit before reaching into his pants and pulling out his cock to suck. Brad plays with her pussy a bit more before fucking her from behind as well as cowgirl style. Finally he pulls out and titty fucks Alexa until he pops on her implants.

Watching this scene, I wondered if I would have been better off being one of the people who sat next to Robert Hayes in Airplane!. Heck, even Alexa looked like she was struggling here. Half of the time she looked bored out of her gourd. I think I mostly stayed awake through this scene imagining what was going through Alexa’s head (other than the breeze). Mostly this consisted of things like “I hope that since I’m fucking one of Wicked’s top directors I can get a few more boxcovers” and “I wonder if they’re keeping the lights so low here so that I don’t get distracted by any shiny objects.”. This scene is best off skipped.

Scene 2 - Tara and Kyle Stone

Doctor Kyle gets it on with head nurse Tara in the elevator after it gets stuck between floors. She strips down to her white bra and panties before dropping down to her knees to suck Kyle’s cock. He eats her pussy from behind, as well as giving her a quick rimming, in reciprocation before Tara rides him reverse cowgirl style. Kyle also gives it to her from behind before he pops on her pucker.

This is another lackluster scene. There’s some nice chemistry and Tara puts in some great energy, but the scene still didn’t work for me. I think a lot of it had to do with the cheesy music and awful setup for the scene, as well as the camera style not being one that I care for. It was constantly on the move, and I frequently wanted a different angle. Finally, I think I was still reacting to how amazingly bad the opening scene was.

Scene 3 - Tara and Alexa Rae

Alexa starts out the third scene sucking Tara’s dildo while Tara gets a pair of drinks. They talk a bit on the couch after Tara finds her, and soon after Tara’s tongue snakes its way into Alexa’s axe wound. Alexa returns the favor before working on Tara with one of the toys she brings back to play with. Alexa also gets a little toy time before letting go with a laughable “orgasm” and the two of them cuddling on the couch.

This is an okay scene. Once again Tara puts some nice energy into things, and once again Alexa looks half bored and is fairly laughable as she appears to fake her orgasms. Luckily Tara can act and puts enough into the scene to make it work halfway well.

Scene 4 - Ginger Paige and Nick East

Nurse Ginger gives Nick’s injured hand a test to see if it’s as good as he says it is. She sucks his fingers before guiding it to her breasts. They exchange oral favors before Nick gives it to Ginger missioanry style. They keep things going through reverse cowgirl before Nick pulls out and pops on her bush.

This is an okay scene. Ginger and Nick have nice chemistry here, and both of them put in a lot of energy. It’s a scene that I think I should have enjoyed more than I did, but with all the crap around it in this movie I don’t think I was able to really enjoy it.

Scene 5 -Alexa Rae, Tara, and Brad Armstrong

Tara starts out the final scene showing Brad how he’s going to take his mind off the sexual frustration he’s getting because of Alexa. She gives him a little strip tease before making him put on a blindfold and starting to suck his cock. Alexa joins them for the oral action, and takes off Brad’s blindfold so that he can tell who his surprise is right away. They keep the oral love flowing between them before Tara climbs on to ride Brad reverse cowgirl style while Alexa plays with and licks her pussy. Alexa takes her turn missionary style before Brad pops on her face and lets Tara lick it off.

This is an okay scene. I really like the playful start, and Alexa keeps her head buried enough that the scene ended up being the best of hers. There’s some nice chemistry and nice energy here, and the scene works well as a closing scene for the movie.

Say Aaah should have come with a doctor’s warning about not watching if you’re planning to operate heavy equipment. The storyline makes daytime soap operas seem like top notch, well thought out drama, and a good portion of the lines are so bad that they aren’t even funny! The sex is much the same way. Ginger Paige and especially Tara (who’s really the standout performer of the movie) do good jobs, but headliner Alexa normally looks bored in her scenes that I found myself wondering how she ever got a contract with Wicked. She easily shows herself to be the least of any of Wicked’s contract performers here, and brings down the entire movie to the point that I found myself unable to even get into the second scene after watching her in the first one. She isn’t alone with bringing the movie down, as the lighting was often so horrible that the only way to help it was with the fast forward button. Say Aaah is easily one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen from Wicked Pictures, and one I’d only recommend it to extreme Alexa Rae fans.

The Extra Stuff

The photo gallery lasts about two and a half minutes with roughly six seconds per decent looking snapshot or full screen photo. Star galleries are also included for Alexa Rae and Ginger Paige, lasting about two minutes and a little over a minute and a half respectively. The girls, as well as Brad Armstrong, also get star stats which include a few photos of the star, a link to the star’s scene, and a little personal information. Trailers are included for XXX Training, Heat, Hercules, Falling From Grace, and Bordello Blues. There’s also bloopers, promotional materials, DVD-ROM stuff, and a commercial for the Free Speech Coalition.

The blooper reel lasts about three minutes. There’s plenty of flubbed lines, as well as a few sexual bloopers and a little screwing around on the set. It’s a nice mix of screw-ups here, and worth checking out if you enjoy blooper reels.

The Down -n- Dirty Sex Stuff

Themes: Straight, titty fucking, rimming (male > female), lesbian, toys, and group

Raincoat Factor: Medium high

Condom Usage: 100%

The Bottom Line:

Currently, many of Wicked’s DVDs can be found online for between $15 and $30 with many stores offering them for around $21. Rent this one before you buy it. The movie’s lame, and the technical aspects leave a bit to be desired. There’s a little extra attention to the extras, but that’s about the only thing to impress me here.

Note to Wicked Pictures: It’s great to see you even putting effort into the DVD for movies like this. That really says a lot about the care you’re giving your DVDs.
