Starring: Here we go again. . . why I continue to view anything directed by Michael Ninn is a testiment to my own stupidity.
I will admit that for cutting edge and high gloss, big budget porn, Mr. Ninn is amongst the top ranking individuals, but he just never seems able to combine those talents with making actual 'hot' porn flicks.
He always loses to much in his cinematography tricks and weird style.
In this flick, he has such talents as Helen Duval, Jill Kelly and Roxanne Hall on hand (among others).
Here's his major problem. . . he constantly films dark, dreary scenes (please, Michael, turn on some darn lights!!!). It would be nice to actually see the participants in each scene.
Add to that fact that he also messes things up by adding both weird effects (i. e. filming in the rain, again in the dark) and dressing up the starlets in crazy, outlandish costumes (hint; naked is always a good thing, no wacky costumes are really needed).
Low to medium. . . thankfully Helen really does show some heat in this movie (as she always does).
The first scene with her taking on three guys is a good case in point. . . had Mr. Ninn filmed this scene with an actual light on it would have been kickass.
She takes on Jeremy Steel, John West & Jake Steed. . . now that's quite a lot of wood to handle, but she handles it well, taking a very long DP pounding.
Next up we have another messed up scene shot in the rain with Jill and Eric, besides the fact that these two are really starting to broe me, the dark background just made it that much worse.
In the third scene I asked myself, 'how can you mess up a scene with the gorgeous Crystal Knight, Helen Duval, Monique and Naomi?' Well, besides making it a g/g, the answer is, dress up your starlets to look absolutely ridiculous, thus taking away all eroticism, sob!!!
The fourth scene was actually the only scene that was without flaw, save for the fact that I didn't know who the heck the starlet was. She's a brunette billed as Alice, but other than that, I don't remember ever seeing her before, which is a pity, for she's quite beautiful and her scene here with Colt Steel is fantastic, although maybe I was just so grateful by this point to see an actual passable scene, who knows.
Our fifth scene isn't too bad also, but once again, it's shot too dark, so we do lose a little quality, which is a shame, for it's a one on one with Helen and some well built stud.
Our last scene is with Roxanne Hall, Ian Daniels & J. J. Michaels. . . a very average threeway, as threeways go.
Well, the scene with Alice What's her name was actually the highpoint of the video. Talk about a switch though, for one usually watches a movie to see one's favorite star, not a complete unknown.
Also, Helen really does put in a valiant effort, she gives 100% into all her scenes.
Where to begin. . . the production values stink. . . the film is too dark. . . the music is too annoying. . . and the costumes are too outrageous.
I could go on and on, but I really thing that I've blasted Michael Ninn enough for one review. I know many people think he's great (and I will admit that he does have talent, but just not for directing hot porn. . . he should stick to Playboy or MTV type videos).
The potential for a great movie was there, thus to throw that away by bad directing is a true pity.
I can't honestly rate this movie an higher than 3, and that's being generous.
