Cast: "Doing What Comes Naturally..." 3.50 out of 5.00 - Film: 3 Features: 4 Video: 5 Audio: 2 Cover girl cutie Rita Faltayano looks so fresh and - dare I say it? - natural on the cover of 110% NATURAL #3, that I was convinced I would enjoy this disc as much as I liked its immediate predecessor. Alas, despite some well-performed, if not a bit too mechanical, hardcore scenes and some very attractive and amazingly silicone-less women, this Red Light District flick fails to rise above average and does not distinguish itself from so many of their other titles where the sex is executed just as competently, but with a more interesting thematic twist (i.e., CUM-SWAPPING SLUTS, STRAIGHT TO THE A# 1, and so on). As a result, I can't say that this video deserves anything above an "average" rating, but those who just want whacking material would do well with this disc as any other. Rita Faltayano (as she becomes more popular with American audiences, she might want to change that last name to something more spell-able) is a definite babe, but she also has a girl-next-door appearance (even when its soaked in man-goo) which is so appealing that it's only natural she would be the biggest selling point for this disc. However, her very prominent, third nipple of a mole is air-brushed on the cover, but sticks out distractingly under the bright, flat lighting of this video. Also, I've seen her do work that was more stimulating than what we get here, such as in BRIDES & BITCHES from Private and ROCCO'S TRUE ANAL STORIES 15 from Evil Angel. Still, as with all the girls in this video, her scene is filled with top-notch fucking and equally well-done sucking, including the all-important anal play. Yet, the overwhelming feeling of sameness and routine in each and every segment tends to wear on the viewer after some time. Part of any enticing encounter is the tension that develops between two performers. But when all you get is some idle chitchat followed immediately by oral sex, there really isn't much chemistry that can be seen or felt. This isn't necessarily a complaint, but compare how any single scene from WILD GOOSE CHASE offers more thrill in less running time than any encounter you find here, and you'll see how predictable things get. Short-red haired Lola is much more talkative than Rita, thanks to her better command of the English language. Not to be confused with Latina performer Lola, who often does work for Wicked and Metro, this fiery redhead is very sexy indeed, and offers to what I believe is the best scene on the disc. Though her dirty talk "hey muther fuck-urr, do you want to play with my braysts?" is more amusing than arousing. Still, she has tight little body tailor-made for this kind of film, and her threesome is the best scene on this disc. First runner-up for best scene would have to be busty blonde Myli, who is more cute than beautiful, but fucks just as well as Lola. Though blondes who aren't Briana Banks or Inari Vachs or Ginger Lynn don't necessarily top my list of all-time favorites, this girl has charisma to go with her sexual skills. The girl in-between (not literally, however) Rita and Myli, namely Marlee, and the one afterwards who is credited as Carmen White, are decidedly not as easy on the eyes as the other women. Your reaction to their scene will depend on your attraction to the featured stars, but Carmen takes on two guys anally, but without being double penetrated, though she has no problem doing any other act of lewdness. Lisa Sparkle, who repetitively reminds us that she's a Hungarian girl, is another charismatic performer which rounds this title up to three slightly above average scenes. Though not an overwhelming beauty, she is naturally sexy and someone I would love to see in the future. Strangely enough, this segment has a lot of explicit kissing between Lisa and one of her male suitors. In fact, you get a lot of tongue twisting in this 110% NATURAL #1 and #2, which doesn't qualify them as being couples oriented, but rarely do you get such intimacy (or what passes for intimacy) in any hardcore gonzo flick. Video quality is excellent, with generally crystal clear images exhibiting only a minimum of any discernible digital artifacts. Yet again, the audio on this disc has problems which should be brought to the attention of someone at Red Light District's quality control. The voices are heard on the right channel, while the music is heard on the left, a mix which hasn't been heard since the early Beatles albums. But believe me, you'll be less enchanted with the sound here than you would on "Revolver". But aside from that, the rest of the disc contains above average extras, including a Behind The Scenes segment where the girls try again and again to get their line readings right. The trailers aren't quite up to date, since their pretty much what we see in older titles like STRAIGHT TO THE A #1 and JUST OVER EIGHTEEN #2. The ten minute plus, bonus scene begins in mid-fuck with a girl I identified, through process of elimination, as Leslie Taylor (a name which doesn't quite match her Asian looks, but who cares?). It looks like something which was shot randomly, and takes place in a place different from the main feature. 110% NATURAL 3 is not bad at all, but neither is it great. It's just more of the same.
