Release date: 4/17/2007
Reviewed on: 7/21/2008

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Michael Lucas, Milan Gamiani
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: Michael Lucas takes advantage of the fabulous Hungarian gene pool and creates one of his best films. There are six sizzling scenes with such awesome performers as George Vidanov, Milan Gamiani, Flavio Valentino, and the fabulous Mangiatti twins. Lots of shrimping. Watersports and a fisting sequence can be found in the Director's cut.

Auditions 2 (Lucas)

Release date: 11/20/2004
Reviewed on: 12/30/2007

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Michael Lucas, J., Jason Dean, Wilfried Knight, Adrian R., Asoka, Alex Lopez, Dani Eitan, Gabriel Sinclair, Kacorot, Luke Stamm
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: There are five scenes. Number One features regular Wilfrid Knight with newcomer Gabriel Sinclair. Number Two features Michael himself with a sexy young Israeli bear, Dani Eitan. Scene Three violates what I said above by having two newbies: Luke Stamm and Jason Dean (which is no doubt why in spite of the water sports on the Directors Edition the scene is one of the least successful). The Fourth Scene features old-pro Asoka with Eric R. (listed on Lucas website and ever hereafter as Adrian R.). The final has Lucas faithful known only as J. along with the huge-dicked Karocot and the young Puerto Rican Alex Lopez. (Lucas also pops into the scene to initiate J.s ass and join the fun.)

Starring: Michael Lucas, Owen Hawk, Richard Black, Hunter James, Erik Grant, Asoka, Tommy DeLuca, Rob Ramos, Bobby York, Phillipp Dante
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: Of the nine performers featured on this DVD only two of them are newcomers to porn. So it seems a bit far-fetched to call this an audition tape. But if we are watching some pretty good sex, were not going to quibble about technicalities are we? In the first of the five scenes we find Lucas himself paired with Owen Hawk. Now Owen is certainly a seasoned pro and Lucas admits this saying quite bluntly that he just wanted to do a scene with Owen because he finds him cute. He also tells Owen that he is beautiful. Well, Ill go along with Owen being cute, but Owen is not beautiful. More importantly though he is a sexually voracious little bugger and seems to be great fun in the sack. The two of them suck cock, have a nice a sixty-nine, and Lucas gets to fuck him. Something both appear to enjoy very much. What I found fascinatingand Michael did toowas Owen deep-throating Michaels enormous pylon. It causes Michael to gasp in both pleasure and surprise. No wonder he wanted to do a scene with Owen! Erik Grant and Rob Ramos are up for scene two.

Reviewed on: 11/19/2005

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Michael Lucas, John Lamb, Sebasthian, Kevin Wood, Jesse Dane, Marcel D'Ambrosio, Asoka, Danny Bitho, Omer
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: There are a generous five audition scenes in this fifth entry for Lucas Entertainment. The scenes begin with Michael interviewing the auditionees with the usual questions (Where are you from? Where do you live now? What do you like to do sexually? Etc.) and then they get right down to it. We begin with Josh and Sebasthian. Josh is a pixyish Texan. Sebasthian is a young Peruvian. It begins with a kiss. Im not really attracted to Josh clothed, but when hes naked I notice a stirring in my loins. (You cant judge a man by his cover. Clothes definitely do NOT make the man.) Both are smooth of chest. Damn, youre hot! Josh observes as he goes down on Sebasthians uncut dick. Nice cock! Although Sebasthians cock is soon swollen, Josh remains soft until Sebasthian starts eating out his ass, then it springs to life. This young Peruvian sure knows how to rim! They get into a 69+ (my term for when one sucks cock while the other eats ass). After a while Michael orders them into a 69 proper.

Dangerous Liaisons (Lucas Entertainment)

Release date: 3/14/2005

Starring: Michael Lucas, J., Mario Ortiz, Gus Mattox, Owen Hawk, Kent Larson, Bruce Beckham, Wilfried Knight, Tre Xavier, Amanda Lepore, Boy George, Bruce Vilanch, Hedda Lettuce, Lady Bunny, Michael Musto, RuPaul, Graham Norton
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: There have been many film versions of Choderlos de Laclos classic French novel Les liaisons dangereuses. Although the best one is called Valmont and stars Colin Friel and Annette Benning, the one most viewers have probably seen is the one called Dangerous Liaisons with Glenn Close and an appallingly miscast John Malkovitch. In this immortal immoral tale, the Glenn/Annette character spurred by jealousy wants the John/Colin character to seduce the intended bride of her former lover. Its the old case of Hell hath no fury like woman scorned. The reward for successfully deflowering the bride to be is a romp with the scorned lady. Now Michael Lucas has used the novel to make a gay porn version. In Michaels version set in the fashion industry, Michael has wisely cast himself in the role of the rejected lover who here is the head of a large fashion empire and is called Marcus von Halpern. (A rather long name to go on a label.) Gus Mattox is cast in the John/Colin role, and here he is a fashion photographer, Valentine Moore.

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Jack Simmons, Michael Lucas, Lance Gear, Josh Kole, Eric Magyar
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: Chris Bolt, a handsome young hunk, is about to turn thirty and his lover Lance Gear wants him to settle down in a monogamous commitment. Chris buddies, Chad Hunt and Brandon Roo, advocate the swinging life. After all thirty is not old; one is still at one's sexual peak, as Chad wisely informs him. To illustrate this Chad tells of his picking up a hustlercute uncut Milos Miroslavwhom he took back to his place so Milos could ply his trade, or rather get plowed by his trade. Now Chad Hunt has an incredibly huge cock and if I were a hustler Id charge him double. On second thought, maybe I wouldnt charge him at all. Its a hot scene as Chads always are, and Milos acquits himself admirably, taking every inch of Chads mammoth endowment. Chris then tells of his getting together with a porn star. The star is none other than Michael Lucas, wholike Chadis no slouch in the dick department. After some mutual sucking, a nice sixty-nine, and some expert rimming by LucasChad gets the full measure of Lucas incomparable rod.

Starring: Michael Lucas, David, Mario Ortiz, Antonio Vela, Marco Rochelle, Damion, Rick Gonzales, Danny Hunter, Carlos Aguirre, Polo McCabe, Jonny Kfir
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: Michael Lucas and his lover Carlos Aguirre cant sleep because a new tenant has moved into their apartment building and appears to be having non-stop sex. The sounds of which are keeping Michael awake. Michael who is director as well as performer is a very sexy guy with an awesome endowment who was born in Russia and after appearing with Falcon and other studios eventually established his own company that operates from NYC. His films generally consist of handsome ethnic types who are in their twenties, handsome, masculine, hung, and sexually adept. Although the occasional twink appears from time to time. Carlos is good example of the Lucas type: very handsome, Latino, andas we shall seeable take all that Michael has to offer. Carlos believes that if you cant lick em, join em so he begins making out with Michael to drown out the noise from the other apartment. He sucks that incredible cock as Michael takes a few sucks on Carlos toes. Finally, that heat-seeking Russian missile finds its target in Carlos ass.

Reviewed on: 2/28/2003

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Michael Lucas, Richie Fine, Mitch Ryder, Chad Hunt
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: This is Richie Fines film from beginning to endand what an end! This James Dean look-alike began his career in the twink videos of Junior Studios where with his big dick he was always top man. Graduating from Junior twink to Senior twink, Richie expands both his repertoire and his anus with his appearance here. The film begins with Riche and his friend Chris Bolt sunning themselves on the beach when Michael Lucas jogs by. Richie is all excited at seeing a porn star and makes it his goal to make it with Lucas. Chris on the other hand wants the biggest dick on Fire Island. Chris, who looks like the star high school athlete, is one of porndoms finest examples of the gay All-American boy. The boys notice Mitch Ryder and Aaron Tanner watching them. Are they cruising us? They decide to join the oglers and we have our first sex scene. Mitch is a cute young bear; Aaron is a bleached-blond. Mitch fucks Chris while Richie fucks Aaron.

Release date: 1/30/2003
Reviewed on: 2/28/2003

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Michael Lucas, Chad Hunt
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: FIRE ISLAND CRUISING # 4 has a theme. Fire Island is not the place where couples can remain faithful. Each of the five scenes features someone who is two-timing his lover. This starts off with Marco Rochelles lover Tom International naked on a sundeck getting a blowjob from an equally naked Aaron Heights. Tom is a slender guy with nice muscle definition, two pierced nipples and some tattoos. Aaron who was introduced in a special scene in LUCAS ON TOP is a hot little twink with a hot mouth and an even more accommodating ass. A ballet dancer, Aaron also possesses considerable agility. Im sure those buns look great in leotards. Michael Lucas catches them in the act (his take is much too overdone) and rushes off to tell Marco of his lovers infidelity. In revenge Marco tells Lucas that his own lover Trent Everett made out with a guy who has an even bigger dick than LucasChad Hunt.

Studio: Lucas Entertainment

Starring: Michael Lucas, Enrico Vega, Mitch Ryder, Chad Hunt
Directed by: Michael Lucas

Review brief: Since the vast majority of our porn comes from the West Coast, Michael Lucas does us a service in showing the country that people have sex on the East Coast as well. Fire Island is the Mecca of the region so it is appropriate that he has released a series of FIRE ISLAND CUISING videos and DVDs. F.I.C. #1 begins with Michael and Kyle Krystoff getting ready to set sail for the island when Phillipe Siren, a friend of Kyles, joins them. As the boat gets underway, Kyle and Phillipe get underway, too. Michael stops the boat and goes below to give them some privacy. Kyle is a good-looking blond; Phillipe is a swarthy guy with a big tattoo on his back and a nice Prince Albert in his cock. There is only oral action on board and no semen at sea. They continue the action in their room on the island. Surprisingly it remains only oral. Kyle, who doesnt cum at all, jacks off Phillipe. Despiteor becauseof the PA he shoots a far-flung load. Meanwhile Michael has begun cruising and meets up with Chad Hunt who invites him to a party later that afternoon.
