Russkaya Lolita (2002)
Who needs subtitles when the plot is so simle?
Writer Gennady travels around the countryside looking for a place he can trade chores for a room. He bumps into Alice (Nemchenko) roller skating, who tells him that her mother is looking to rent out a room. The mother, Olga, agrees to take him in. She's a bit lonely and he is a relatively attractive man and a bit of a romance begins between them, making Alice jealous and challenging her to seduce and steal him for herself.
Valeria Nemchenko had a short lived career in porn and in essentially two softcore feature films, this one and Temptation, (billed as Russian Nymphet.) Her nubile body and baby face made her look underage and she played that character to the hilt. This is by far the better of the two softcore features, although both are entertaining,
Alice manages to seduce Gennady pretty effectively, at first flashing her underwear and then her pubes at him under the table where her mother can't see her. She throws her body at him, crawling over him bare-assed while he's writing or reading. He sees her bathing in the forest and then helps her wash while groping her all over. That scene, and the one where she sits on his lap dressed in a schoolgirl outfit and he fingers her to her first orgasm are exceptionally hot.
Finally Olga comes home unexpectedly and catches to two of them making love. There is much crying and accusations, but Gennady is in love with both of them and so they end up as a threesome enjoying all the benefits.
While not much of an actress, trading on her nymphet looks instead of any real acting chops, she's still a very charming seductress with a buoyant personality and a huge smile. In many ways I like this version better than the leering versions of Nobokov's Novel.
Engel mit schmutzigen Flügeln (2009)
Much better than the critics would have you believe.
Roland Reber and his usual ensemble of actors have over many films created a universe that explores the deepest regions of sexual freedom. Whether you approve of the display of sex on the screen, in all its glory, or would rather be wooed more subtly by the turn of a wrist or ankle, sex is still the topic.
Marina Eich and Antje Monning bravely and enjoyably "go there" in several of these films and are worth watching not just for their beauty, but for their enthusiasm. Monning's explicit sex scenes in this film are certainly hot and she throws herself into them with relish.
But it's about more than the sex and nudity, it's also about empowering women. Antje Nikola Monning was an early proponent of the Free the Nipple movement and campaigns for fully equal access and rights. These Angels with Dirty Wings are out to liberate women from the shackles of having to answer to anyone but themselves.
So, is it a good movie? It isn't great. The non-actors used in many of the scenes deaden the progression, and the script is lacking in depth as well. But it is very hot and very sexy and Antje Nikola Monning is a joy to watch whatever she does.
Planet of the Baybes (2014)
Two hours later....
Amazingly lame low budget British spoof of other much better low budget Sci fi movies, the fact that this is self-aware puts it in the category of "not quite bad enough to be good." The occasional musical numbers, (which at least sound like they were recorded in a quality studio,) aren't very good, the jokes, ranging from bad puns to worse sight gags, all are delivered so knowingly badly that the movie never rises to the point of entertainment. This is two hours of your worst nightmare high school musical, except high schoolers are generally more competent actors when directed. The only thing remotely entertaining is the gag reel at the end during the credits, and even then I'm not entirely sure what they're laughing at. I guess they had fun filming this thing, but I can't for the life of me imagine why.
Meninas, Virgens e P... (Troca de Óleo) (1983)
Gritty little piece of bisexual porno from Brazil
Leave it to Sady Baby to direct gay sex with the same relish and extreme close-ups as the heterosexual hookups. The movie starts in prison with a blowjob and anal sex, watched and cheered on by the main characters, and gets nastier from there.
Basically a buddy movie revenge plot with a few betrayals and some violence thrown in, it's not overly coherent or logical, or terribly well photographed . All in a dingy yellowish tint, the movie looks as dirty as it is.
That said, the main actors are attractive, and the women they have sex with, both willing and unwilling are pretty sexy. The violence seems intense and realistic, mostly, and the sex scenes, straight and gay, are plentiful and also intense. All in all it's fairly well acted if a bit over the top, which seems to be the norm for Brazilian porn, as opposed to the clownish and silly stuff from Europe.
Games of Desire (1991)
Yet another passionate woman with an impotent husband.
This story has been told many times, and some are better than others. This one falls in the middle somewhere, not bad, but somehow not very good either. The Italian bombshell Malu plays the younger wife to an older impotent husband. She's almost constantly desperate for affection, it seems, and she plays the frustration pretty well, although as blatant as she is it seems to do very little to attract anyone. She wears her blouses open to the waist and dances like she has one hand on a pole, and yet only one man pays any attention to her. Around the house she wears silk robes, but not one has a belt to keep it closed. The only "man" really attracted to her is her preteen stepson, who is always spying on her and trying to catch a glimpse of more of her impressive body. The whole thing is a bit over-the-top, but amazingly soft and tame, and the little glimpses we see of Malu's rear and cleavage just aren't enough to make the overwrought drama more than a tease..
