Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are very nicely done. The audio is clear and well balanced and I didn't notice any background noises. The video is presented in anamorphic widescreen and looks very nice. It's clear with a solid eye behind the camera as well as very nice care towards the lighting in front of it.
The Movie: When Stormy goes out for her birthday with her hubby Eric and some friends, the last thing she expects to happen is for her husband to disappear. Over time she struggles with her grief and her feeling that Eric is still out there, somewhere. Eventually her life starts to move on, but her past may not be willing to stay behind her.
| Scene 1 – Stormy Daniels and Eric Masterson |
After Eric surprises her at home on her birthday, he kisses Stormy and lays her back on the bed to suck her big fat titties. He kisses her pussy around her sexy purple and black panties before sliding them off to eat Stormy's snatch and work it over with his fingers. They share a few kisses before Stormy helps Eric out of his jeans to mouth his manhood. She works him over both with Eric standing in front of her as well as laying back on the bed, and finally lets him bust in her mouth.
| Scene 2 – Eva Angelina and Brad Armstrong |
Brad and Eva head out to the car to have a bit of dirty sex. They share a couple brief kisses before she lays back to let Brad eat and finger her pussy. Eva eats Brad in return before riding him reverse cowgirl style and letting him spoon her. Brad plays with her ass a little as he fucks her doggie style and finally lets Eva have a very impressive facial finish.
| Scene 3 – Ava Ramon and Tommy Gunn |
Tommy gets busy with busty bottle blonde Ava in bed. He kisses his way between her mouth and tits, and helps her out of her panties before Ava eagerly mouths his manhood. She lays back to let Tommy fuck her big titties and then gets back up to ride him reverse cowgirl style. Tommy also spoons Ava and fucks her missionary style before pulling out to pop on her stomach and tits. Ava runs her hands around her great body to rub it in before the camera fades out.
| Scene 4 – Arianna Alyse and Barrett Blade |
Cute brunette Arianna hooks up with Barrett in a bar bathroom. They kiss with Barrett working in a little attention for her tits before Arianna drops down to suck and stroke his cock. He makes sure to work in a bit of titty fucking before working on Arianna from behind with his tongue and fingers as she bends over the bathroom counter. He stands up to fuck her from behind and lets Arianna ride him reverse cowgirl style as he sits back on a stool, as well as letting her work in a little more cocksucking for him. Finally Arianna drops down for a nice facial finish.
| Scene 5 – Stormy Daniels and Randy Spears |
Stormy and Randy hook up after her gets a bit of bad news, and after a little soft kissing he moves down to suck her tits and eat her box. Stormy happily reciprocates on his cock, sucking and stroking it as well as mixing in a little oral attention for Randy's balls. She gets up to ride him cowgirl style and mixes in a little more oral attention as well as spinning around into reverse cowgirl. Randy also spoons Stormy before pulling out to give her a nice pop on her stomach.
| Scene 6 – Stormy Daniels and Eric Masterson |
Stormy kisses Eric before dropping down to work him over with her hand and mouth. She lets him take her from behind and in missionary as she lays back on the kitchen center isle. Finally Eric pulls out and pops on Stormy's stomach. She picks up his seed with her fingers and takes a few tastes.
Taken is an extremely well done adult feature. The story is very nicely drawn out to let things slowly simmer and build up, and there's some good twists as the movie goes on. The sex fits very well into the story, and is nicely captured as well as having solid chemistry in each of the scenes. Stormy Daniels fans should find plenty to like here, as she turns out three very hot scenes, as well as showing off her acting chops. Randy Spears is every bit as good in his role through the movie, and Ava Ramone, Eva Angelina, and Brad Armstrong all give very nice supporting performances that help things to build as well as they do. Perhaps my favorite thing about Taken is the running time. This is a Wicked feature that runs nearly two and a half hours long, and feels like it's given the time it deserves. So often adult features like this seem rushed to fit into a short running time, which I guess can be understood with how adult film budgets are being constantly cramped, but here the running time really feels right. I'll admit that I wasn't overly thrilled with the ending, as I was hoping for a bit more, but it does work pretty well for the movie. Taken is a solid feature that shows off both Brad Armstrong's skills behind the camera as well as Stormy Daniels' skills in front of it.
The Extras: Trailers are included for Taken as well as six other Wicked releases. The main feature photo gallery lasts about four and a half minutes, and you also get star galleries for each of the ladies. There's also a star stats, behind the scenes featurette, a bonus scene, and commercials.
The behind the scenes featurette lasts about twenty four and a half minutes and is presented in non-anamorphic widescreen. After a few quick flashes around the set, you get a few comments from Randy Spears getting ready for a scene, Brad Armstrong, and Stormy Daniels. The featurette continues around the set with Brad working with the cast a bit to get what he wants as well as showing a bit of the fun behind the scenes. There's some nice fun with Randy Spears, as well as a bit of chatting with Ava and Tommy. This is a very nice behind the scenes featurette that's a nice addition to the overall DVD.
The blooper reel lasts about three and a quarter minutes and is presented in non-anamorphic widescreen. You get a few minor blunders as well as plenty of flubbed lines. This is a simple but fun little addition to the overall DVD.
| Bonus Scene – Stormy Daniels and Lee Stone |
The bonus scene comes from Watching Samantha. Stormy takes Lee away from his work to get it on with him in the living room. They kiss while undressing each other before Lee drops down to munch her muff and eat her ass while bending her around. She sucks his cock in return and lets him fuck her tits before climbing up to ride him cowgirl style as he gives her ass a few slaps. Stormy gives Lee a little more head before riding him reverse cowgirl style, and gives him a little more head before going back to the traditional cowgirl. Finally, she gets down to suck and stroke Lee to a nice facial finish before playing with it briefly and swallowing it down.
Condom Usage: 100%
Final Thoughts: It's a very well done feature that's well worth picking up.
