Starring: Jerry, Brandon Michaels, Sandra Romain, Harmony Rose, Tory Lane, Kelly Wells, Will Powers, Justin Syder, Barry Scott, Derrick Pierce, Jason Cox, Catalina Cruz, Danielle Derek, Ginger Lea, Brooke Banner, Katja Kassin, Mikayla Brooke, Ricky Wrecker, Mikayla Mendez
Directed by: Brandon Michaels, Joshua Ryan
Review brief: This is a pretty hit or miss oral sex movie. Catalina Cruz's scenes normally hit well, which isn't a surprise with talent like Katja Kassin, Tory Lane, and Sandra Romain. Mikayla and Ginger Lea also turn out a fun scene complete with the best ending in the movie, but Danielle Derek's scene and Kelly Wells and Harmony's scene just didn't do anything. Throw in Brooke Banner for a full boy-girl sex scene and the movie comes out filled with scenes that are all over the place. The technical aspects are also very average while there's no effort put into the extras to help the overall DVD. This is a pretty average release, but worth checking out if you're fans of the stars.

Studio: Venus Girls
Starring: Penny Flame, Samantha Slater
Directed by: Sturgeon Court
Review brief: This has been Sturgeon Court's longest running orgasm denial series, and it keeps things running at the same level. Sadly that level is fairly hit or miss for me, but with Kyle Stone as the guy he makes it work where many other guys wouldn't. Penny Flame is the real star of this release, however, as she keeps the movie running at such a high level that Samantha Slater can't help but bring it down a little even when she's doing a good job. The technical aspects are very nicely done, but sadly there's no effort put into the extras at all. This is a decent orgasm denial release, but Sturgeon Court has others that are harder and might work better for many.

Studio: Naughty America
Starring: Kurt Lockwood, Trina Michaels, Trent Soluri, James Deen, Jack Venice, Alex Gonz, Tyann Mason, Sarah Jessie, Kitty Caulfield, Lisa DeMarco, Lichelle Marie
Directed by: Brett Brando
Review brief: Naughty America returns to it's leading teacher themed series with nice results. There's good chemistry in the scenes, and the ladies are nice looking as well as pretty fresh. The setups are far from new but work due to the cast having fun with them. I think Trina Michaels scene with Lachelle and James Deen was my favorite, but there really wasn't a bad scene here. The technical aspects are pretty average due to some minor obvious flaws and sadly there's no effort put into the extras. This is a pretty average DVD that really could have used a couple extras and a little minor cleaning up on the technical aspects.

Studio: Gina Lynn Productions
Starring: Ron Jeremy, Gina Lynn, Alexis Amore, Ariel, Travis Knight, Riley Evans, Katarina Kat, Michael Kahn, Vanilla [IV] (USA)
Directed by: Gina Lynn
Review brief: This is an okay and inconsistent release. Although Riley Evans, Vanilla, and Gina Lynn each have a good scene, Katerina Kat, Ariel, and Gina Lynn also had scenes that didn't do anything for me. The camera work is a little weak and the movie has a feeling that makes it seem like it doesn't quite know where it wants to go. There is a little effort put into the extras, but it's minor enough to not add too much to the overall DVD. Extreme oral fans might like this one, but it didn't impress me too much.

Studio: VCA
Starring: Michael J. Cox, Julie Meadows, Evan Stone [I] (straight), Chris Cannon, Tina Cheri, Sammi, Ryan Conner, Cheyanne, Herschel Savage
Directed by: Francios Clousot
Review brief: When private dick Michael J. Cox is set up, he decides to find out who set him up and why no matter what the risks. Yes, it's an old premise, but director Francois Clousot does a pretty good job with it here. The sex just makes it past the average mark due to a fair amount of dubbed audio and a couple scenes that feel like they could go a little longer, but the story is nicely done. Julie Meadows, Ryan Conner, and Cheyanne all deliver pretty good scenes here (with Julie doing three of them), while Tina Cheri's scene didn't quite make the average mark for me. The technical aspects are pretty average, but sadly there's no real effort put into the extras. If you're looking for a nicely done feature, this one's worth checking out.

Studio: Penthouse
Starring: Aurora Snow, Reno, Kelle Marie, Sascha, Vanessa Lane, Jay Lassiter, Marcus London, Nevaeh, Devon Lee, Roxy Deville, Johnny Castle, Riley Shy
Directed by: Kelly Holland
Review brief: As Neveah sits at the end of the world waiting for her lover, she wonders if things were better in other times. Using that as a setup, Kelly Holland wanders through time with an artistic eye and couples getting it on. There's great attention to the production aspects and some nice creativity, but the sex never feels like it gets as much attention and in the scenes where you get to hear the performers rather than just music, it never synchs with the video. The style is great throughout the movie, but more often than not it feels like the sex could have been better. This is an okay release.

Studio: Evil Angel
Starring: Lorena, Jazz Duro, Monica Mattos, Tamiry Chiavari, Agatha Meirelles, Alessandra Marques, Larissa Vendramini
Directed by: Buttman Magazine Choice, Jazz Duro
Review brief: Although Jazz Duro has shown some very nice potential in the past, here he lets things slide a bit. The scenes often feel short and the inconsistent lighting and frequent background noises often interfere with the scenes. Lorena Aquino stands out nicely in the cast, but the asses were just above average here rather than being the killer Brazilian asses one would normally expect. This isn't a bad release, but with the quality Evil Angel normally puts out even an average release like this comes off as a bit of a disappointment.

Studio: Naughty America
Starring: Kimberly Kane, Roxy Jezel, Sunny Lane, Crissy Moon, Kayla Synz, Niki Dominick
Directed by: Brett Brando
Review brief: Naughty America puts out another fun and light release here, this time focusing on nannies. Roxy Jezel and Sunny Lane start this one off with two great scenes taking on Tommy Gunn before Kayla Synz and Jack Lawrence decide to play with nanny Niki Dominick to close things out for the best scenes, while Crissy Moon's scene had a bit of an off feeling. I'm sure Kimberly Kane fans will enjoy her scene here, although not caring much for her I couldn't get into it. The technical aspects are a bit weak here once again, and as usual with Naughty America there's no effort put into the extras. The three scenes are enough reason to check this one out, and the overall spirit continues to make me a fan of Naughty America. If you're interested in this one, give it a spin.

Studio: Noose Productions
Starring: Cindy, Kate Cassidy
Directed by: Bob Bright
Review brief: Although the title suggests something much more sadistic, this release instead comes off almost as loving and playful bondage. The girls are definitely having a great time and are very into each other. They each give as good as they get and there's even a few giggles and smiles worked in. The technical aspects and extras fall below the average mark, which is nothing new for a bondage release, but the editing is some of the weakest I've seen in a bondage release and the biggest thing to hold the action back. Those wanting hard bondage with a focus on pain will want to skip this one, but anybody wanting playful all girl bondage should find plenty to like here.

Studio: Smash Pictures
Starring: Mary Ann, Cassie Courtland, Cassia Riley, Tiffany Rayne, Janice Campbell
Review brief: This is a pretty hot compilation with a brand new cream pie scene with newbie Janice Campbell added in to start off the release. The scenes are all nice and hot with Mary Ann and Cassie Courtland's scenes standing out as the best here. The technical aspects are nicely done, but sadly the behind the scenes featurette listed on the box isn't included. The bigger problem with the boxcover is that it's another Smash compilation that makes itself look like a brand new release rather than on collecting some of their best scenes. If you like barely legal girls or are curious about some of what Smash is doing, this is a great release to check out.

Directed by: Vonn Fink
Review brief: Those curious about alt porn might want to check this one out, as it comes across feeling like alt-light. It has enough style to give you the feeling of alt porn but doesn't get nearly as heavy as the style used by directors such as Jack the Zipper. The sex is okay, but I'm not a fan of alt porn. The technical aspects are fairly average, but held back by a non-anamorphic transfer, and the extras show a touch of effort. This is an okay release that isn't quite my thing but does show a bit of care.

Studio: Hustler
Starring: Eva Angelina, Mya Luanna, Joanna Angel, Memphis Monroe, Lexxi Tyler, Nikki Nine, Jana Jordan, Dee Lilly
Directed by: Richard Hamilton
Review brief: While easy on the eyes, this one also may cause you to need to rest them due to the rigid formula that holds back the entire movie. The scenes are overly long and often barley let any chemistry through while feeling like they could easily be edited down to half to two thirds their length. The technical aspects are nicely done, and there's also a touch of effort put into the extras. If all you care about is beauty this might be a good release for you, but if you want some depth you might be better off passing this one by.

Directed by: Robby D
Review brief: Although it has a great racial mix with black and white guys taking on white women, black women, Latinos, and Asians, this one fell a bit short for me due to the very basic style. It also feels like it wants to be a feature but doesn't quite have enough there to tie everything together. Sadly, the extras also show a lack of effort while the technical aspects go for the slightly grainier style that Robby sometimes likes to use. This isn't a bad movie, but it just didn't work for me and gave a little much of the it's just porn feeling off.

Directed by: Antonio Adamo
Review brief: Being a while since she's had a good relationship, Alex can't help but be curious when she starts getting mysterious sexual phone calls from an unknown man. Sadly, that premise is more interesting than the rest of the movie. The action has a good focus on beauty, but the story and sex are both surprisingly shallow and overflowing with lost potential. The technical aspects are nicely done, but there's barely any effort put into the extras. There's a good idea here, but Adamo just doesn't seem like the right director for the job for this movie.

Directed by: Andre Madness
Review brief: Andre Madness adds a twist to couples' films with some very nice results here. Although these are supposed to be twisted scorching sex scenes, instead it's fairly couples orientated action with some very nice sexual twists and a little setup to start off each scene. Although a little of the action ducked below the average mark, it all has some very nice potential and very good ideas. Sadly, the movie also doesn't last an hour and a quarter, which seems way too short. The technical aspects are pretty good, but sadly the extras are almost completely recycled and a complete waste. This is a surprisingly good couples movie for those who don't want to deal with much plot.

Review brief: Four scenes with big girls are included here with a nice racial mix. There's a nice feeling to most of the scenes including the girls looking like they're enjoying themselves, but weak male talent and below average camera work hold the action back. The technical aspects just miss the average mark, but sadly there's no real effort put into the extras. Fans of big girls will probably want to check this one out, but others might be best avoiding it.

Directed by: Brett Brando
Review brief: This should have been a great release. There's hot sex, hot girls, and a nice variety to the action that showcases several of Naughty America's series. As usual with Naughty America, they refuse to put any care or effort into their releases, and instead it comes off as cheap and a bit sloppy with below average technical aspects and no extras. With a little effort from Naughty America I'd be highly recommending this one, but instead it left me as another Naughty America disappointment that fell far short of its potential.

Directed by: Raul Cristian
Review brief: Raul Cristian's big tit series joins the Evil Empire here with mixed results. There's a great variety to looks for the girls, as well as a very nice mix of sex scenes that gives you a little of everything. Sadly, Raul Cristian's style of camera work didn't do a lot for me and ended up holding back every scene to some amount. The technical aspects are good, but there's no real effort put into the extras, which is unusual for the Evil Empire as well as holding back the DVD. Fans of big tits and anal action will probably enjoy this one, but I can't help but think that I'm not alone in being turned off by Cristian's style.

Directed by: Toni English, Kelly Holland
Review brief: When the girls play to the camera it's often hit or miss with people. There's a little of both here as some girls, such as Aurora Snow, do a great job at it while others, such as Joelean, don't get it down as well. The movie is short with some scenes coming off as extremely short, and technical aspects that are pretty average. There's a little effort put into the extras, but overall the DVD barely makes it past the average level.

Directed by: Julian
Review brief: If you're on the lookout for big tits, this one should have just what you need. Julian's packed two and a half hours of high quality big tits in with well known names such as Gianna Michaels (who easily has the best scene of the movie) and Whitney Stevens along with fresh faces such as Danni Daire and Melodie Peters. He keeps the action simple and straightforward with a nice focus on big tits throughout the movie. The technical aspects are pretty average with a little bit of pixelation poking in and some frequent background noises, but the overall DVD is held back more by the complete absence of any extras. This is a pretty good movie on a DVD that needs a little more effort.

Directed by: Brett Brando
Review brief: Sooner or later you're going to have that sex dream, and Naughty America knows it. Maybe you dream about taking on two women, like Tommy Gunn does with Penny Flame and Nikki Benz of like Joey Ray does with Jordan Styles and Lyla Lei. Maybe you dream of what could have been when things go wrong, like Christian XXX does with Puma Swede, or maybe you just can't help but dream of banging that hot chick, like Billy Glyde does with Lexi Belle or like Marcos Leon does with April Blossom. Christian's scene with Puma and Marcos' scene with April are easily the best here, but they all have a very playful feeling that makes the scene both hot and fun. As usual with Naughty America there's no effort put into the extras, but the technical aspects are pretty good. Sadly they completely screw up the cast listing on the boxcover, but this is still a hot and fun movie.

Directed by: Nina Mercedez
Review brief: After spending plenty of time in front of the camera, Nina Mercedez (who many will know simply as Mercedez) is going behind the camera. Although she claims to have an all Latina release, girls like Jayna Oso and Havana Ginger definitely call that claim into question. Although there's some good talent here, most of the action is very average with nothing to really make it overly memorable. The technical aspects rise above the average level, while the extras show some nice care. For a first release from Heartbreaker Films this isn't a bad release, but most of the action is missing that spark to take it from 'pretty good' to 'great'.

Review brief: Lu Bricate hosts this release with the help of Scarlett Summer. Despite having some top notch talent like Sandra Romain and Tory Lane, the entire movie comes off feeling just as fresh and appealing as the leftovers you pulled out of the fridge from a couple weeks ago. There's nothing really memorable about the movie even with some poor editing and lackluster camera work. There's a little effort put towards the extras, but even those didn't do anything for me and came off as bad lead-ins to the scenes. If you're tempted by this one, rent it or aim cheap.

Directed by: James Avalon
Review brief: When budding filmmaker Eric Masterson sets out to get the true story on up and coming hottie Ava Rose, he gets much more than he bargained for. Unfortunately, the viewer gets far less. Although Ava does appear in two scenes, she comes off more as a prop than anything in the movie and never really seems likable. The sex is okay, but is constantly held back by choppy editing and funky lighting that never really worked for me. There's a bit of effort put into the extras, including a very nice interview with Ava, but for the most part the movie left me far from impressed and never seemed to give me any reason I should care about it.

Review brief: Tera and Spyder return with their story of a brothel with an Asian slant. The story does a very good job showing how good minimalism can be for an adult film and manages to build some nice tension. Sadly the sex doesn't keep up with it that well due to the camera work and editing, which just seems a bit off all around. The technical aspects also fall a little short due to a non-anamorphic transfer, and although there is a bit of effort put into the extras it's not enough to really justify this being a two DVD release. Tera and Spyder seem to promise a lot here, but in the end deliver a pretty average release.
