Francois Clousot regains his mojo with this well-directed Digital Playground feature, about surveillance, blackmail and political corruption but with strong female roles.
Anya Olsen, cast against type as a tough gal, stars as a strong-willed criminal out to blackmail corrupt politician Nicole Aniston and her even more corrupt lobbyist/lover Keiran Lee. She has a couple of gals posing as motel maids (newcomer Molly Stewart and always reliable Elena Koshka) planting cameras and bugging devices to record the duo's illicit sex, and later double crosses her gangster boss Mick Blue, latter giving a very convincing, ice-cold bad guy performance.
The sex by all cast members is strong, and their acting consistently convincing. A script credited just to "Zach" (whoever that is) is quite well-written up to a disappointing final reel, as like so many other 21st Century Adult features it appears the filmmakers are in a hurry just to wrap things up once the final sex scene is in the can.
