Open Couples

The only diverting moment for me in this deadly dull Adam & Eve release comes early on, as Anikka Albrite is introducing the show, making the Freudian slip as she states its title as "Wide Open Couples", a throwback to sleazy porn titles of the 1970s.

Open couples is a reference to open marriage, as two pairs of married porn stars have sex (as usual) and also group sex.

This is a truly dumb idea for a porn video, in that porn couples have already decided way back when that they can tolerate the spouse having sex with countless men and women for a buck. It's part of the sex worker profession, in this case screen actor division.

Director Jay Allan, who has a perfect record of turning in lousy content to Adam & Eve, gussies up the show with lovely locations, creating a romantic backdrop for filler shots, not the boring XXX main event.

The ladies, Mia Malkova and Anikka Albrite, have a lesbian scene too. The foursome finale oddly doesn't feature swapping, just the couples humping side by side and then as an overlapping group.

All told, it's a professionally shot home movie for the principals to show their grandchildren of how "hot" they were back in the day.
