Review:

Lori Michaels plays the innocent young girl who has come to Hollywood to become a model. She meets sleazy talent agent Rick (Mark Davis) who promises her the world and only wants a small piece of the action (guess which piece). Rick does get Lori an interview with famous photographer Steve (Bobby Vitale) and he loves her look and sets up a photo shoot. While Lori is posing for Steve, Rick is "interviewing" Sahara Sands. Lori catches Rick with Sahara and gives him his walking papers. Fortunately for Lori, Steve is there to console her.

The flick's first sex scene featuring Lori and Mark is very short, has too much audio dubbing and not enough shots of Lori's face and body.

Scene two has Nina Hartley and Rick Steal humping for Steve's camera and Nina shows why she has long been a staple in the industry. This is a longer scene, but that's because of the looping.

The almost mandatory girl/girl scene was performed by Lori and Jenteal. While Lori looked more relaxed in this scene, neither girl appeared to really get off and the action was much less than inspired.

By far the best sex scene of the movie was turned in by Mark Davis and Sahara Sands. Mark puts it in every available hole and Sahara was more than eager for his attentions. They even took a "you watch me play with mine and I'll watch you play with yours" break in the middle of the action. This scene also switches to Lori's solo action posing for the camera. This is where she shows the most enthusiasm during the film.

The final scene has Bobby consoling Lori after she dumps Mark. Lori seems to loosen up some during this scene and the camera work shows her body and face to a greater degree than before. Unfortunately, it just comes up short and leaves you hanging.

This movie is billed as Lori Michaels first time in front of the adult cameras, and it shows. The only times she looks comfortable is with a dick in her mouth and when she's pawing Jenteal. The editing was sub-par with too much audio dubbing and chopped up sex scenes. This is not one of Toni English's better efforts and the sex seems to be over directed. There isn't enough spontaneity and the girls just never quite turn loose.

Lori is an incredibly sexy-looking girl and I hope her future films live up to the promise of what that body is capable of. I'll be checking more of her videos to find out. This movie gets a 3 but only because of Lori's looks.
