Review

Four vignettes, focused, as usual with these, on sex between steps. The first and third scenes concern a woman and her step-father; the second, a woman and her step-brother; the last, a woman and her step-son.

We found the first scene very disappointing. He is extremely dominant, in a way that feels unrealistic, given who these characters are. It doesn't help that the camera work is very pornish, too, with most of the shots fairly tight on her, and there are way too many "medical" shots.

The last scene, though better in many ways, was also disappointing, mostly because the sex just felt too routine. And while the other two scenes are better, neither of them is great. The stories in both of these scenes are very amusing, and well acted, and the sex is a good deal more interesting and varied. But the only female orgasms here are from Veruca James, in the third scene, and, in fact, she is the only woman who ever seems anywhere near orgasm.

In all of these scenes, the sex is a lot rougher than in most of the Tabu Tales movies we have seen. (Actually, it has been getting rougher as the series has progressed.) We don't have a problem with rough sex—but we think it needs to be handled the right way, and it really isn't here. It just feels, as we said, unrealistic and pornish.

Scene 1: Aidra Fox and Otto Bauer (♀♂)

★★½☆☆

Time: 30:09

Cumshot: Pussy

Features: 69, Deepthroat, Rough Sex

Otto and his "bratty" step-daughter Aidra engage in a bit of verbal jousting, with her teasing him about his age and alleged need for Viagra. He claims in response that he can out-fuck her boyfriend any day, which leads to their having sex.

The story, such as it is, lasts about four minutes, which leaves about 26 minutes for sex.

He is extremely dominant, and the sex is fairly rough. That sort of fits the story, we suppose, but it makes the sex feel more generically pornish than in most of the Tabu Tales movies that we have seen. She does seem to have a reasonably good time, and to be quite aroused, though not, so far as we could tell, near orgasm.

When she is sucking him, the camera is very tight on her face most of the time. And when they start fucking, the initial shot is tight on her body for at least a minute before it widens to show him, then goes back to a tight shot on her body and more or less stays there. And so forth. There are also way too many "medical" shots. All in all, very disappointing, and out of character.

She should really take off her shoes. She's wearing huge platform wedges that sometimes seem as if they are going to break the camera.

Scene 2: Veruca James and Michael Vegas (♀♂)

★★★★☆

Time: 29:29

Female Orgasm: Multiple, Cumshot: Ass

Features: Analingus, Cunnilingus Orgasm, Deepthroat, Footjob, Rough Sex

Michael is very straight-laced, whereas his sister Veruca is a rule-breaker. She tells him he has to loosen up, so he tries to do so, but then decides that, if he is going to "go bad", he has to go all the way. He overhears her talking with her boyfriend on the phone and telling him that he should come over and that he will find her in her room, blindfolded. So Michael locks the door so he can't get in and takes his place.

The story lasts about four minutes, which leaves 26 minutes for sex. It's amusing, and they both play their roles very, very well.

There is decent chemistry between them, and the sex is reasonably passionate. And she seems to have a good time, as well, having at least a couple orgasms and seeming to get quite emotional. Something was lacking for us, though. Maybe the problem was that the choking and such just didn't feel realistic, given who he is as a character. He also was a lot less expressive than we have seen him elsewhere.

The camera work at the beginning is terrific, with a great mix of shots, including excellent close-ups of her face as he eats her. Once they start fucking, though, the camera tends to be tighter on her most of the time.

Scene 3: Katie St Ives and Steven St Croix (♀♂)

★★★★☆

Time: 25:28

Cumshot: Tits

Features: 69, Deepthroat

One of Katie's greatest fantasies is to fuck her step-father Steven, and she listens to him fuck her mother every morning. But she wonders if he is really satisfied. She fixes his tie for him, then tells him he is very sexy for a man his age. The next day, she leaves a note for him asking him to think about her while he fucks her mother, and she listens to them again while standing outside the door. He seems very uncomfortable, but the next day she leaves another note, asking him to fuck her against the door while she is listening on the other side. Eventually, he leaves her a note, saying he will be coming home early to fuck her.

The story, which lasts about five minutes, is sexy, and St Croix is, as usual, fantastic. They don't do a whole lot to carry it into the scene, though.

The sex is again fairly rough at times, but it is at other times tender, and he shows a lot of concern for her pleasure. There is excellent chemistry between them, and they seem to be having a lot of fun and both to be enjoying themselves. She never seems to be all that aroused, though, and we'd have expected her to be. This is supposed to be the culmination of a long-time fantasy.

The camera work here is about as usual for these. There is a pretty good mix of closer and wider shots, with closeups of both of their faces. She is more the focus than he is, but hardly exclusively.

Scene 4: Darla Crane and Tyler Nixon (♀♂)

★★★☆☆

Time: 28:13

Cumshot: Tits

Features: Spanking, Tit Fuck

Pleasure ✓, Passion ✓, Balance ✓

Darla is acting as a personal tutor for her step-son Tyler, and she is very tough: taking away his cell phone, grounding him, and so forth. He says that the reason he's not learning is because she is a terrible tutor, so she hands him a paddle and says he should spank her. She leans over the desk, and he whacks her ass a few times, tentatively. She then tells him she has sex with a lot of her students, and she eventually convinces him to play with her.

It's not much of a story, really. It consumes about four minutes, leaving 24 minutes for sex. They both do a good job of carrying the story into the rest of the scene, though.

There is not great chemistry between them, unfortunately, and the sex often feels a bit rote. Neither of them really seems to be enjoying themselves all that much through most of the scene, either.

The camera work is all right. When she is sucking him, the camera is tight on her face at first, but there are then some nice wider shots. She becomes more the focus once they start fucking, and there were a few more close-ups than we would prefer. But there are also some nice shots of his face.
