Movies like this aren't generally watched for their plot, so I'll dispense with even talking about it. Rather, this film is all about the skin, of which this film has plenty of(or at least the unrated version I caught), in surprisingly explicit detail, I might add. And thus, pretty much ruins the whole point of softcore. Leaving something out stirs the imagination, and unable to show real sex, the simulation is supposed to be more, I'll say 'dynamic', then the real deal. Sadly, this film does neither, and instead straddles the line between hard and soft quite poorly. If you want sex, you'd be better off getting a real porn. If you want imaginative (if not patently realistic) action, you'd be better off with something like Hotel Exotica. But there is plenty of skin, so it's not half bad.

Overall your basic run of the mill softcore video. Having seen both the unrated and rated versions, I can say that without a doubt there is no point to even thinking about the rated version. As for the movie itself, was a little surprised to see more lower body detail then I expected. Only a few scenes were disappointing, mostly due to wasted potential, especially the kitchen scene, but make up for it in energy. My only complaint is that we don't get to see nearly enough of Landon Hall. As for the plot ... you don't really watch these films for the plot, do you?

The best thing I can say about this film is that the production values (cinematography, lighting, and sound) are respectable. A not too original variation on the old women-in-prison formula: Woman shoots man, goes to jail, forced to strip, is freed by forgettable hero; this film manages to fail as either sleazy exploitation or tolerable story. The acting is flat, Catherine Oxenburg (the heroine) never really believable in her reluctance, humiliation, or any other emotion for that fact. It's hard to blame her, though, as this movie is clearly nothing more then window dressing for the extended strip preformances by the several dancers, only one of whom is memorable. In fact, this feels more like an audition tape for these dancers, with a plot slapped on at the last minute. All in all, if you're looking for a story or a guilty pleasure, this film is neither.
