Stiff Competition

Exceptionally good production values for a porno movie- the sound is even in Dolby Stereo! I heard that Caballero went under (they were bought later, the company that puts their DVDs out has rather shoddy quality) partly because they spent too much money on their productions! I don't know the history of Paul Vatelli, but 'he' has directed several other above-average porn movies including Bodacious Ta-Tas, Coming Together and If My Mother Only Knew.

Beware of the Image Entertainment laserdisc of this movie however- although the picture and sound quality on it are good, a key scene was cut for time so that side 2 could be in CAV format!

Stiff Competition is everything that Adult Movies wanted to be in theory, but rarely lived up to in practice,or as Burt Reynolds Character Jack Horner said in Boogie Nights its a movie where "when they spurt out that joy juice, they just got to sit in it until they find out how it ends".

A great funny story, with marvelous (for porno) production values and some great (for porno) acting.

In the acting stakes,all of the men are at the top of their game - Savage,Jeremy,Thomas (In a non sex role) & Leslie are their usual reliable selves, they arnt Olivier but all 4 are more than adequate actors who really wouldn't be out of their depth in mainstream productions.

The main male lead, the late Kevin James doesn't quite have the acting chops of his fellow studs, but is likable in his role of Manager/trainer/boyfriend to the star of the movie Tammy the Tongue (Played by newcomer Gina Carrera).

I've noticed in another review on this site that was written back in 2000 that the reviewer thought that the women weren't as hot as the porn chicks circa the millennium. I couldn't disagree more.

Not only is Carrera exiting and delicious as the enthusiastic Tammy,but this flick also features one of the most beautiful women ever to have appeared in porno - Ms Bridgette Monet who delivers a blistering anal scene with her then real life boyfriend Dave Cannon.

Cyndee Summers,Patty Plenty & Susan Hart also feature and all 3 arnt exactly what you would call plain and their looks and style haven't aged as badly as some of the mid 90's silly-cone sluts I could mention...

All in all a must see for fans of the genre,couples & those who are just plain horny but are jaded from the constant barrage of A2M,gangbangs bukkake & cookie cutter porn-starlets with their tramp stamps & bolt on's. 8/10

The premise is funny, an oral sex contest. Most of the women are a little on the plain side by current porn standards, not 70s dogs but just not up to the Asia Carrera, Raquel Darrain kind of standard. Also the action is too orally focused for my taste.

I give this movie a 3 out of 10 but I don't really know what that is based on - perhaps the quality of porn that evolved since I first discovered this rare gem in my friends dad's wizard bong guarded closet.

There was a few of us that first fell in love with this shitty porn film and weekend after weekend would try to blow our virgin loads to it's horrible punch lines.

As far as porn goes this was terrible- but the funny memories still last to this day. Now we are trying to track down our friend who we haven't seen in years and laugh with him about this funny times in our lives - need to have 10 lines to post this review.
