The Movie:
A Vivid feature that has porn actors doing Shakespeare. I swear to God.
This had to be a riot, and I was really looking forward to it. I haven't seen many Vivid movies, mainly because they are so often the object of scorn. After watching this, I can't help but wonder if people aren't dumping the baby out with the bathwater.
This gem is a very well written and acted porn movie that offers high production values, a mainstream feel, and few laughs. Don't be put off by the Shakespeare aspect. Personally, I would rather have root canal surgery than to sit through one of Will's plays unless there's a translator, but that's only a small part of it. This play-within-a-movie is all about putting a new face on one of the classic love stories of all time, and although there's more story here than an average feature, it's very well done. Oh, there's also some good sex. No anal in the feature itself (thanks for daring to be different, Vivid!), but they've included an Anal Room with four bonus buttsex scenes.
Housed in an attractive interactive package that includes many extras, I found little to complain about or make fun of. Dang it.
Pop the disc in and you'll find yourself in a colorful multiplex-type theater lobby, where you can choose to go right to the feature, or watch some previews. There's also your choice of four bonus scenes in other themed theaters, such as the Anal Room, Blonde Theater, or Threesomes.
Story synopsis:
Renee La Rue plays an actress who has been cast as the lead in a porn version of Romeo and Juliet by Wilde Oscar, who plays the director. The play is due to open in a week, and she experiences a case of nerves that manifests itself in some of her dreams, which are sexual in nature. She also has no chemistry with her Romeo, played by Michael J Coxx, which worries her. Dasha, the blonde Czech pictured on the boxcover, plays her lover.
Dasha and Dillon Day:
Juliet keeps flubbing her lines because of the distracting moaning and groaning going on, and finally just gives up and stands back, letting these two go at it in a scorching scene between this real life couple.
Dasha's an enthusiastic, big butted Czech, who begins by sucking Dillon's cock, then moving to a platform that's just the right height for some reciprocation. She gets so excited she pisses a little, which excites Dillon even more, and they move onto a scaffolding for some banging, clanging, upside-down hanging sex. A very hot scene to start with.
La Rue and Oscar:
This guy Wilde Oscar is a pretty damn good actor. He turns in an excellent performance playing the director of the X-rated play, and has a 'hands on' approach. During rehearsal it's obvious Juliet needs to chill, so he helps her out after everyone leaves with a thorough and vigorous pounding. Blowjob, muff dive, cowgirl, mish, yadayada.
Chennin Blanc, McKayla and Oscar:
Wow, a three-way masturbation scene! This was pretty hot and had a different feel to it. Unfortunately it doesn't last very long. Oscar, after fucking Chennin, takes a seat on the couch and continues strokin it.. Chennin sits nearby and McKayla masturbates sitting on a dresser. I found her 'orgasm' over the top and totally unbelievable, but it still counts. The girls bend over, taunting Oscar to come on their asses, which he does.
Dasha and La Rue:
These two are lovers. Dasha gives Renee a thorough going over to help her relax, including plenty of oral before they get to rocking on a double dildo, supplemented by battery powered double bullets. La Rue appears to orgasm.
La Rue and Michael J. Coxx:
During rehearsal before their successful opening night, a connection takes place between Romeo and Juliet, who finally make beast with two backs. The chemistry is such that they also make the snake with two humps, and finish with some rousing five-legged aardvarking.
Best line:
Juliet to Romeo: "Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much. Which manly devotion shows amiss?"
Which one indeed.
Male Cumshots: 4
Female Orgasms: 3
