From: [email protected] (D0CTOR no) Subject: Dr. No's Review -- Kiva's Creme a la Mode Date: Sat, 23 Aug 97 10:45:02 Organization: AOL http://www.aol.com Review/Feedback - Kivaís Creme a la mode Kiva is on to something. Maybe not so much the flick itself but definitely the business approach. Why appear in somebody else's flick where you just get a pay check when you can be the Business and the Brand? Kiva has the right business model for the 90ís and beyond. Kiva is star, producer and co-director. All she needs to do is hire/borrow some males and a cameraman. Sure she needs a distributor but for how long? Kiva will be able to sell her flicks cheaply over the Internet and take out the middlemen. This means more money in her pocket. She can also advertise/promote herself cheaply over the Internet becoming known to millions of men all across the country. This is the new economic model of things and Kiva is sharp enough to realize it. Good for you Kiva. Kiva's flick is a compilation flick. Now Kiva explains that her set of cum shots is different because they were all done expressly for this movie, but from the viewer's standpoint it is the same thing ñ one minute of jackoff before the cumshot on Kiva (who cares if they were from the same timeperiod or not ñ as long as the viewer has not seem them before). Not to saythat some of the cum shots aren't interesting. Kiva makes some effort to vary the camera angle and what she is wearing and even includes some outdoor scenes (more on that later). But the camerawork is pretty poor, the video quality also poor and the lighting is awful. Kiva also uses some special effects (mood/psychedelic lighting from the 1960's) which didn't work then and doesn't work well now. Kiva explains to the viewer that she enjoys cum shots. Well actions speak louder than words. Kiva doesn't appear to be enjoying herself. I donít remember her smiling once during any of the action. Mostly she just waits with a deadpan expression on her face while she waits for the guy to jerk himself off. Kiva also rarely participates in getting the guy off. She performs orally only a couple times and jerks the guy off only a couple times. She does have three anal scenes which are o.k. She does move the cum around her mouth etc. and gives a lot of eye contact to the camera which is fine. But quite frankly, the flick would have been much better if she took cum all over her face (which only happens a couple times) and worked with it. What about a little fun and humor or appearing like you are enjoying yourself? Also, it is hard to decide if the movie is anti-male in a way. Men do not exist in this movie ñ only their cocks. They do not speak and their faces and upper bodies are not shown. It could be taken as "my purpose is here to serve Mistress Kiva." The men generally do not get to touch Kiva at all. Donít look for someone grabbing or stroking her hair or breasts or rubbing their cock on her cum dripping mouth. If any touching will be done it will be done by Mistress Kiva. I found the lack of interaction between the couples to be impersonal and dark. One other note, I did not enjoy hearing the dubbing over of Kiva moaningduring the sex scenes. If you want to moan and groan that's great but do it during the scene ñ not afterwards. Kiva is attractive. She has nice legs and a firm attractive body, a cute face and pretty eyes. She has a couple of tattoos (one quite large) but I couldnít see what they were. She has a great European style haircut (short and cute) but it is obviously a dye job. I love redheads but it doesn't work for her. Hopefully, she will try something darker which would complement her fair skin. What did I like? Kiva gets some guy to come on her face in clear view of the Golden Gate Bridge. Wow. I'm not an expert on San Francisco, but I think that this was from or quite near the bicycle path leading to the bridge. This area is very busy from early morning to dusk. While I think that they could pull this off without getting arrested pretty easily ñ pulling thisoff without being seen is another matter. Perhaps Kiva will share the story with us. My guess is that the cameraman set up the shot with Kiva waiting with a jacket on. The male probably went behind a bush to jack off until he was ready to cum and then came running over to the "spot". Kiva quickly removes her jacket exposing her breasts. He quickly cums on Kiva and after a few seconds of working the cum around they split. This would probably expose them for a minute. Even with a spotter helping out a minute is a long time not to be caught methinks. Wow, quite a interesting scene. Having said that it could have been a lot better for this viewer. For example, they could have kept the tape rolling as they made their exit. Kiva could have kept the cum on her face until they got back to their car etc. Imagine it dripping down her chin as she retreats. Maybe they would have come across some joggers etc. heightening the rush of elicit sex. Even her and her friends laughing about getting away with it would have made for a better experience then just the quick cum scene. Anyway, give her credit for risk taking and creativity on this one. Don't write and tell me that John Holmes did a outdoor sex scene overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. I know that. But John did not do it anywhere near as close to the actual bridge as they did it! Note to Kiva: At the end, Kiva explains that we just saw 3 dozen cum shotsof which 40 were facials. Anyone can make a silly math error like this... but to go unedited? Kiva, my unsolicited advice is that if you put more quality into the making of your videos you will be a big hit. You are the Brand. Just like Coke, Marlboro, or Ritz Crackers you are the Brand. If you work for someone else, most porn viewers blame the director/producer rather than taking it out on the porn star (unless they always stink). But you are what you are selling. You need to protect the image of the Brand (you) at all costs. If someone doesnít like your video it will be unlikely that they purchase another. With a better production, Kivaís Creme a la mode wouldsell much better than it has with only a small incremental cost. Three things you need premise, talent, production quality. Premise you already have. Men love cum shots. Simple and effective. Talent. You are quite pretty and men will love to see cum on your face. I would just suggest being morewarm and fun loving. Production quality. This needs work as I detailed above. Surround yourself with some better talent in this area or at least do not accept releasing anything that is not two cuts above the competition. Doctor No
