    only redeeming thing in this movie is co-star Jeannie millar

    This poorly written and even non-sensical movie is only blessed with some very graphic sex scenes. The so-called stars are overshadowed by the spectacularly beautiful and sexy Jeannie Millar. The scenes Ms. Millar are in including the opening dream scene are the main redeeming qualities of the movie. The lighting and photography of the sex scenes are of high quality as a plus. Overall 1 1/2 stars but Ms. Millar 4 stars.

    Lacking

    This movie definently lacked. I loved seeing this movie, but expected more. Jeannie Millar is the best thing in this movie. I was wondering about why it lacked and found out from a fellow reviewer that there is a un-rated version, I must have got the rated one. I advise getting the unrated or to not see it because you most definently will be let down.

    EXCELLENT SOFT CORE

    Despite the comment below, I thought this was one of the better examples of the soft core genre; it has the lovely and sexy Jaqueline Lovell in it which in itself is worth taping it off cable TV (although not the $35.00 they want for the DVD).

    The film has some of the best simulated sex I've ever seen in soft core, especially the girl/girl scenes which indeed may not be just simulated. Take a look and see if I'm right.

    By the way I see where Ms. Lovell has taken time off to have a child. Congratulations to her and I hope to see her back in films

    A very hot, fun softcore video.

    Low level male office assistant is tasked with watching his rich boss's mansion while the boss is away on business. The mansion becomes the focal point for several sex scenes. The women (Maria Ford, Jeannie Millar, Jacqueline Lovell, and Monique Parent) are all very hot. Maria Ford and Monique Parent get the best scenes. Jeannie Millar is unfortunately underused, but her one scene is very good.

    A couple of minor things that I had problems with. There are several times where it felt like something more explicit had been censored out. I just chalk it up to bad editing since so many other scenes are far too explicit for this to be R rated. Also, there is a lesbian scene involving Jacqueline Lovell and another girl that is completely ruined because we see the whole thing from the viewpoint of a handheld camcorder. To screw up a Jacqueline Lovell lesbian scene like that is unforgivable.

    But overall you are still left with a lot of really hot sex scenes.

    This one is easy to recommend.

    Decent flick, I guess......C-

    I forgot if this movie had a plot or not. If it did have one, I must have missed it. Of course there's plenty of sex (as the title of the movie suggests), and it stars my favorite T&A movie babe, Monique Parent. She's been in a lot of these, and it shows....she looks kinda old in this one. Maybe it's the short hair...oh well. In one scene she does a little roleplaying with this guy, he being the master of the house and she playing the part of the naive french maid. Complete with a bad french accent and a skimpy maid's uniform, she prances through the house, "trying" not to be caught by the master. Of course he catches her and....well, you know the rest. That's about it, nothing else too special. Don't sit through the whole thing, but check out the scene I talked about if you want a laugh.
