All the girls are dressed in sexy nurses outfits with stockings and heels (check out the box cover to see each girl and what she wears in her scene). The sex and the girls are hot in all five scenes. I only wish I had nurses like these.

Starring: John West, Lee Stone, Reno, Riley, Talon, Will Powers, Jay Huntington, Alexis Love, Aubrey Addams, Kylee Reese, Tyler Stevenz, Barbie Love, Emma Heart
Directed by: Rick Davis

Review brief: Teen Idol #4 contains five sex scenes starring six girls who act and dress like young teens instead of being barely legal. None of the girls wear heels and only a few wear thong panties. The girls are young and cute, but only Aubrey, Alexis and Kyle sparked any interest from me. This was a disappointment, especially coming after Smash's film Cheating Housewives #4. The DVD has a feature that allows you to watch the film with the story line or only the sex in each scene.

Check out my reviews at www.lsbreviews.com Naughty Nanny is a newly released film from Smash Pictures (reviewed 01/07). Naughty Nanny Service is an escort service. The men call the service and a girl shows up to tend to their needs. All five girls in the film wear the same sexy light blue dresses with pink in front, white panties and heels (check out the films box cover to see all five girls in their outfits). The first four scenes feature one on one boy/girl sex. Only Bobbi Starr in the films last scene takes on two guys. Bobbi is one of the girls who gets fucked in the ass, but isn't double penetrated. There is some anal gaping in Bobbi's scene. Kayla and Ricki are the other two girls who have anal sex in their scenes.

Check out my reviews at: www.lsbreviews.com A Whale Tail is formed when a girl's thong panties stick out above her jeans in back, which is how every girl in this film is dressed at the beginning of her scene. There are five scenes that all feature one on one boy/girl sex. Except for Maya Hills, this is the first time I'm seeing each girl. Bree is a 19 year old blonde who opens the film by talking dirty to go along with getting fucked in the ass and swallowing cum. Bree is the only girl who gets fucked in the ass and the only girl who I'm completely sure swallowed cum, though the four other girls all do take facials. A few girls get fucked at times with their panties pulled to the side and their jeans down around their knees. Veronique Vega has the only interracial sex with Rico Strong.

Sexy newcomer Jordana James opens things with Erik Everhard. They do some fucking and sucking in a board room before he pops between her butt cheeks. Alektra Blue, now with bigger boobs, has anal sex, performs some brief ATM and swallows cum in her scene with Pat Myne. Tory Lane has sex with Steve Holmes and Talon, and is her usual ferocious self as she performs some deep throat to go along with anal sex, ATM and double penetration sex.

Check out my reviews at www.lsbreviews.com Virgin Territory is the directorial debut of adult film star Haley Paige (the girl on the films boxcover). The boxcover says "All Anal", "7 Scenes" and "over 3 hours". There are actually nine scenes (two scenes are short blowjob only scenes). Also, not every scene features anal sex. However every girl in the film does have anal sex and the film is 3 hours long. As I said, all the girls in the film are fucked anally. And every girl, except Joanna, takes at least one oral/facial cumshot (Joanna does lick cum, share cum with Haley and swallow). Joanna and Adrianna Nicole are the only girls who clearly swallow cum (Adrianna actually swallows two loads of cum together).

Check out my reviews at www.lsbreviews.com Cheating Housewives #3 features five one on one boy/girl scenes, plus the very welcomed comeback of Lisa Ann performing again in adult films. All five girls play housewives that for one reason or another cheat on their husbands (thus the title Cheating Housewives). Lisa Ann, who had retired from performing in the late '90's, opens the film with a hot scene on some stairs with Ben English. Lisa, still a sexy, voluptuous brunette beauty, deep throats Ben and fucks him in a few positions before he cums on her tongue and face. Lisa Ann swallows some of Ben's cum, but it's very subtle, she doesn't open her mouth wide for the camera before gulping it down.

Check out my reviews at www.lsbreviews.com Black Pie for the White Guy features five interracial scenes that end with a white guy depositing his load of semen in the pussy or ass of a black chick. Well for the most part that's true.. A few of the men appear to cum both inside and outside of the girl. Derrick Pierce in the opening scene with Jenna Brooks definitely cums outside on her pussy and asshole, but I'm not sure if he also cums inside of Jenna's ass, which he was fucking just before ejaculating on her. Now Van Damage with Shi Reeves and one of the dudes with Beauty cum inside and on the outside of the girls pussy. The five girls are all very sexy and attractive women. Most wear fishnet as part of their sexy outfits.

Check out my reviews at www.lsbreviews.com Miss Strap On is one continuous All Girl Orgy with toys in a large living room. The orgy consists of ten hunnies using plenty of dildos and their tongues and fingers to pleasure each other. Some of the dildos are strap ons (you knew that from the films title). The orgy also includes at times, girls sucking and getting fucked with toys, pussy licking, finger fucking, dirty talking, masturbating, "pussy to mouth" sucking on the dildos and a few orgasms. None of the girls are fucked anally. The DVD extras include BTS footage, a photo gallery, website information and six previews of other Smash Pictures films. I'm personally not into such films, but these girls and the sex is pretty hot.

Cytherea also licks some of Joey Ray's cum that he shoots on Jamie's butt and the cum that drips from Jamie's ass. Sunny takes her first internal cumshot. Both Sunny, with Mark Davis, and Harmony, with Kurt, let cum drip from their pussy's onto the guys mouths and faces. Mark Davis appears to swallow his own cum, while Kurt shares his cum with Harmony, who then swallows.

All are hotties, and while still young (mid 20's thru mid 30's) and very sexy, none are teenagers. One of the ladies is adult film legend Tiffany Mynx. Tiffany looks great as she takes on two dudes (one guy is black or a really dark Latin). Tiffany gets fucked in the ass, double penetrated and takes two oral/facial cumshots. Stephanie Tripp is another hot and sexy brunette babe who also has anal sex and takes the films only other oral/facial cumshot.

All five of these girls are very pretty and sexy young ladies. They especially look hot in tight jeans with the top of their thong panties exposed. The film contains two and a half hours of sex. All five scenes are one on one boy/girl scenes. Plenty of great cocksucking. Tiffany in the opening scene and Mary Anne in the last scene get fucked in the ass. All the cumshots are oral/facials, but was disappointed that the scenes didn't continue a little longer after the cumshots. I love watching a girl clean a cock with her mouth after the pop shot.

The age of the women range from Roxanne Hall at 29 to Vicky Vette in her late 30's. But all five ladies are still very hot, sexy and love to fuck. Vicky Vette is smoking hot, it's hard to believe this woman is approaching 40. All the ladies take facial cumshots, and all get fucked in the ass with the exception of Rayveness. In a few scenes the girls are fucking guys in front of their husbands in order to get even or teach them a lesson. Vicky tells her husband that she's gonna let Mark fuck her in the ass.

Both girls use sex toys in their first scene and do some masturbating in their second. These girls are definitely at the top of the food chain as far as their looks go. I'd much rather see these ladies sucking on a cock and getting fucked, and I don't mean with toys. But if you like getting teased by two extremely hot females in sexy underwear than this film is right up your alley. Scene One: Cassia Riley. Cassia is a gorgeous brunette and Penthouse Pet with a great figure and long legs.

All the other girls were first timers for me. Karina Kay is the very pretty brunette on the box cover. She sort of reminds me of a cross between Jenna Haze and mainstream actress Ashley Lawrence. Brandon Iron was the lucky dude who gets head from her before fucking her and cumming in her open mouth. Jasmine Tame is a very pretty blonde with a few extra pounds (just a few) who only gets fucked in the ass (along with sucking cock). Myah gives Mark a nice rim job during her scene and hitchhiker Jersey Jaxin takes on two dudes at once. All the cumshots are facials, except for Buster Good cumming in Jersey's pussy and Tony T.
