Review: She Male Road Trip #14

I've seen bits and pieces of some of Joey Silvera's transsexual films over the years and have usually been quite pleased with what I have seen. After watching and reviewing “Rogue Adventures 31,” I decided to pop another film in the DVD player and checked out “She Male Road Trip #14.”

What I Liked
My favorite scene was the threeway between LA Cherry Spice, Jesse Flores and Diezel. They seemed really into each other and into the action, which is always a bonus for any adult film. I didn’t really feel that any of the scenes were lacking or lagging. Kelly Shore is amazing to look at as well.

What I Disliked
There’s really not anything that I can complain about. Overall just a very solid film. There was a little bit of a “freak show” element with regards to transsexual little person Ruby Navarro, and that she might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Just be forewarned.

DVD Quality
Excellent picture quality. I felt like the sound was mixed well. Several nice bonuses including a picture gallery, filmographies for some of the performers, a scene by scene cast list (very nice!), trailers for six films, websites and a cumshot recap.

Overall Thoughts
I was pleased with this film. I thought it was a well shot film with a nice mix of attractive transsexual and genetic girl performers. Please note that this film is completely condom-free as well, which is not always the case in a transsexual films.

Review: Cum On In #4

(The final installment of three recent reviews.)

I don't think that I had ever watched a film from 3rd Degree productions before. But this was a creampie film, and it featured Alexis Texas's sweet ass and Audrey Hollander's firecracker personality, so I thought I would give it a go. Overall, it was a good film. Not necessarily legendary, but not everything can be (for better or for worse).

What I Liked: My favorite scene was without question featuring Audrey Hollander. Besides my affinity for redheads, she gave an excellent effort - even taking an anal double penetration. Okay, so it was one dick and one bright pink dildo. But she was in a reverse cowgirl position, so she gets some credit for that. Besides Audrey, though, there were some other attractive women in this film. Overall, I would say that the casting of the females was excellent, although it definitely leaned heavily on blondes.

What I Disliked: I had very little to quibble with in this film. I didn't hate any of the other scenes, nor were there any technical difficulties to deal with. Nothing that I or anyone would find truly objectionable in this movie.

DVD Quality: Excellent picture quality. I felt like the sound was mixed well. Several nice bonuses including a picture gallery, behind the scenes footage, footage of the girls dancing, trailers for five other 3rd Degree films and a cumshot recap.

Overall Thoughts: Overall, I liked this film. Well, maybe liked is too strong a word. Maybe the best description for this film is that it's nice. Nice is good. Nice is above average. Which is how I felt about most of this film. The women are all nice to look at. Their performances are solid. None of the guys look like, well, me - which is probably a good thing. Is it ground-breaking or earth-shattering? No. Is it breaking new ground in the creampie genre. No. Did it make me want to claw my eyes out? No. Sometimes, that's all you can ask for from a film.

Review: Rogue Adventures #31

(Second of three recent reviews.)

I've seen bits and pieces of some of Joey Silvera's transsexual films over the years and have usually been quite pleased with what I have seen. So when I had the chance to review one of the newer films in his "Rogue Adventures" line, I had to take a look and see what was up. I was not disappointed at all, and it definitely made up for the bad transsexual movie I watched the previous evening.

What I Liked: Let me start by mentioning my two favorite scenes. One featured LA Cherry Spice and genetic girl Cindy Crawford, and the other one featured Khloe Hart and Christian XXX. I just found these two scenes to be extremely hot performances. The chemistry seemed evident between these performers, and it came through the screen vividly - especially in LA Cherry Spice and Cindy's scene. That one totally burned up the screen. The casting of the transsexuals was well done; all are extremely passable and would turn heads all across the country while dressed without many suspecting that these ladies had a little something extra between their legs. High quality talent all around.

What I Disliked: I had very little to quibble with in this film. I'm not a big fan of interview scenes, but once the actresses and actors get down to business, their irrelevance is quickly forgotten. There is only one scene I could have done without, and that was probably the second scene featuring Mai Tai and Diezel. Not because it was a blowjob only scene, but I just did not find myself that engaged in the performance.

DVD Quality: Excellent picture quality. I felt like the sound was mixed well. Several nice bonuses including a picture gallery, filmographies for some of the performers, a scene by scene cast list (very nice!), websites and a cumshot recap.

Overall Thoughts: There is a reason that the Rogue Adventures series has surpassed 30 volumes at this point. Joey Silvera strikes again with a collection of very attractive transsexuals doing naughty things in front of the camera with both boys and genetic girls. Note that this film is completely condom-free as well, which is not always the case in a transsexual films.

Review: Bang My Tranny Ass

(First of three reviews I did yesterday. I hope to have three more completed later today.)

Transsexual films often get consigned to the freak show bin by some casual porn viewers. Then again, considering that this reviewer also has an affinity for BBWs, I guess I am a fan of the "freakier" side of porn. I sat down to watch this DVD and I came into my viewing session with literally no expectations as to what this film would give to me. Unfortunately, my missing expectations...were not met.

What I Liked: Unfortunately, there really wasn’t that much that I could say that I liked. The overall viewing experience for this DVD was negative for a wide number of reasons. A couple of the performers were passable and decent looking, but otherwise I was quite disappointed by this film. I do give the director credit, though, for featuring genetic girls with transsexuals, transsexuals with each other, and a boy/transsexual scene.

What I Disliked: My list of dislikes include the fact that the overall quality of the performers was poor from a looks perspective. Yes, I know that my taste in performers would probably be questioned by most casual porn fans, since my taste in genetic girl performers leans towards thick and BBW actresses. However, I thought that for transsexual performers, a better cast should have been acquired and it might have led to a better film. Additionally, one of the scenes in the film was split in half and I am still not sure why this was done. The scene between the two transsexual performers featured a part one and a part two. But why not simply just do one scene? I question the editorial decision in this instance.

DVD Quality: DVD featured one trailer for a website and a list of websites. The DVD malfunctioned several times about three-fifths of the way through, forcing this reviewer to use four DVD players (two computer drives and two regular ones) in order to finish viewing the film.

Overall Thoughts: I did not come into my initial viewing of this DVD with any sort of expectations. I am glad that I did, although I find it hard to fathom being any more disappointed by my viewing experience than I was with this DVD. In this day and age, I do not think that it is too much to expect medium to high quality from a professional production company – no matter what the subject matter. This production, to me, came across as below amateur standing and was a great disappointment. I do not recommend this film.

End of an era on the horizon?

I really don't understand the comments like the one in the lede of this article about the current state of affairs at Playboy magazine.

I wonder where the idea that porn is recession proof comes from.

Hello, journalists: While there is a glut of free porn out there available if you're resourceful enough (and willing to break a couple of laws), porn costs money. It costs money to make it, distribute it and (key point here) to buy it or rent it.

And if the decision comes down to rent or porn, or food or porn, then for the vast majority of us - food or rent wins.
