This light and pleasant rom-com from Wicked Pictures is a prime example of the contrast between the current output of the once-mighty Adult label with its hit making movies of a decade or two ago.
An unknown director credited as "Jessica Jasmin" (I like to think it might be Jessica Drake who up until recently was Wicked's #1 breadwinner under contract) skews the content to fit current preferences: basically four 35-minute or so XXX vignettes knitted together with the absolute minimum of story/characters/dialog setups. Presence of Stormy Daniels in a character role in the cast reminds one of the 100 or so better in quality rom-coms and dramas she either starred in or wrote/directed for Wicked in her heyday.
Premise of the screenplay by Taylor Saracen (whose work is mainly writing Gay Porn scripts) is simple: Jazlyn Ray buys a new Hippocampus Scan Headset VR instrument and her always bragging daddy Evan Stone (fun in a comedy role) uses it to prove to his disbelieving kids (Jazlyn and Tyler Cruise) what a big stud he was back in his college days. Stone's wife Stormy Daniels is a rather open-minded spouse who goes along with the demo.
The invention (comically delivered in less than a minute after Jazlyn tells her phone to order one for $400) takes one's memories and displays them on big-screen TV for others to watch, just the ticket for a vignette porno movie. The kids' can't take seeing a young version of their daddy humping so they are walk-outs, but Stormy digs it.
Miscasting detracts from the sex scenes that follow. Seth Gamble is cast in the lead role playing Evan Stone as college age, who buys a nifty movie camcorder (for $360) and sets about shooting amateur porn videos of himself and his friends. First one has him (as young Mickey as his dad Mike was known) humping Charlotte Sins, followeed by him shooting his friends, a young couple played by Slimthick Vic (convincing in a younger role than the 30-something MILF actress is accustomed to playing) and Nathan Bronson. Problem is that Bronson looks a lot like the young Evan Stone, but clearly Seth got the role instead because he's somehow the dominating #1 contract performer-director for the new Wicked. Good luck with that.
Seth as Mikey goes on to photograph a lesbian scene with talented starlets Lily Larimar and Kylie Rocket which he predictably joins in to make it a threesome (begging the question: who's handling the camcorder?) and finally Stormy's younger self played by Blake Blossom being humped randomly by Codey Steele.
There's not enough story/softcore sex footage here to make for a Skinemax TV version, even though the total package runs a quite lengthy 169 minutes, another glaring difference with the Wicked of old. And the promised nostalgia content is nil.
