The box cover quotes (the late) Moana Pozzi with "She'll reel you in."
Well, this foxy foreigner definitely has a charm all her own, not to mention
a taste for facials, anals, and dps, making her one hot Euro-babe who'll
deliver the goods (or who *has* delivered, as the case is now).  Her sexy
Italian accent will be music to your ears too, if that's what you like.  This
flick is the first of two parts (and I'm still trying to find the sequel! :-)
but with a short running time, they probably should have done this all in one
shot.

Buck Adams plays Jason Thrush, "the world's greatest fashion pimp" as he
puts it.  A fashion pimp who supplies agencies with models after he's
through with grooming them and teaching them everything they need to know.
He says he's seen it all that he almost became bored by it.  That's when he
met Moana and everything changed from there.

The movie opens up in a jail.  A reporter (Ed Powers) visits Jason to get
the scoop on his story which is twice more than what he's paying for it,
Jason tells him.  He says it all started in Rome a few years ago when he
dropped off some models to an agent.  He went on one of his talent hunts,
trying to seek out some fresh meat, when he discovered Moana sitting at a
table outside of a restaurant.  He introduced himself to her and even though
she didn't speak much English she understood the meaning of fame and 
fortune.  So he flew her down to L.A. because he knew she had star 
potential.

Once they arrive in the States, Jason brings her to his office where he 
explains to her that she'll be staying at Claire Bryson (Leanna Foxx)'s
house because she owes him a few favors anyway and it generally looks bad
when clients stay with their managers.  So he decides Claire will be Moana's
best friend; someone who will show her around and get her acquainted with
certain people and places and most of all, teach her English.  Moana doesn't
have to worry about a thing because he'll be taking care of all her 
expenses.  But before she goes out into the real world, he warns her about
all the psychos out there who will want to fuck her and use her for purposes
of their own.  Moana misunderstands him and starts undressing, preparing to
get fucked by him (well, ok, maybe she didn't misunderstand because Jason
IS one of the psychos he was talking about anyway).  So then he decides to
use the next few minutes to educate her on the point he's trying to get 
across.

- Moana has a full figure with juicy breasts (which at first I thought were
real) that are more than a mouthful but she keeps a brassiere on the whole 
time with garters and nylons (thankfully she pushes down her undergarment to
let her boobs freely move around).  She's got a very hairy pussy too, and Buck
practically ends up flossing his teeth as he twirls his tongue 'round her 
clit.  Both orals are very short, though.  After the blowjob, they do a hot 
doggy and cowgirl fuck.  "I want in my ass now," moans Moana (which, by the 
way, is pronounced Moe-ah-nah) and this dirty blonde Euro-hussy gets what she
wants (Buck just pulls out of her pussy and heads right for her ass without 
lubrication).  Not too much penetration is done but they still seem into it 
(and what's with Buck's panting?  His voice goes a couple of notches higher 
right at the point of climax).  Anyhow, a weak cumshot ends the scene (he 
pulls out from underneath and only gets a shot on her bush and another on her
brassiere).

Jason now gives her some money for a bus and instructions on how to get to
Claire's place and sends her on her way.  As soon as Moana leaves his 
office, he calls Claire to fill her in on the situation.  Once Jason lets
her know Moana's Italian she tells him, "I love to eat Italian."  He says,
"Sweetheart, eat all you want but don't swallow."

Minutes later, Moana arrives at Claire's house.  They greet eachother and
Claire leads them downstairs where they immediately get to work on her
first English lesson.  The first word Claire wants to get down pat is 
'little' because Moana pronounces it as 'leetle'.  "You're not using your
tongue right," Claire says.  So they do a few warm ups and Moana starts
to get the hang of it.  "That's it.  I think you've got it!" beams Claire.
"By Giorgio, I think she's got it!"

Back at Jason's office.  He's called his secretary Jenny (Alexandria Quinn)
over to give him head as he fills her in on how Moana might just be their
ticket to over-the-top success.  Overcome with excitement, he tells her 
he'll give her a raise next month from the four dollars an hour he currently
gives her.  "Why I think that'd be only fair since I just gave YOU one!"
she says and he compliments her on how good she gives head.  Of course, he
must return that favor so he decides to prolong his excitement a few minutes
longer.

- After the blowjob, Buck furiously eats Alexandria's pussy out much more so
than Moana's (and Quinn's pubic hair is nicely trimmed, giving it a sort of
V-shape).  These two fuck like bunnies in the doggy and missionary positions
(she keeps her bra on for the doggy; well, with her big (fake) boobs hanging
out over the cups) then Buck climbs up to her face to splatter her tongue 
and chin with jizz.  Alexandria Quinn is a pretty girl with a semi-plump 
body, a mane of flowing dirty blonde hair, and a wanton sexual attitude.  
This one-time underaged starlet should have lasted much longer in the 
business than she did.  Her no-holes-barred appeal gives her a semi-hard
edged look but she has a noticeably sophisticated personality lurking below
the surface.  [Quinn, if you're out there - do you think you might make a
comeback anytime soon?]

Over at Claire's house.  She's gotten Moana to work harder on that weak
tongue of hers by flicking it on her pussy.  Claire says, "Yes.  With more
of these lessons you'll be just fine!"

- Leanna's a dirty talker and a screamer with a stiff boobjob but an exotic
face.  She opens up Moana with her fingers first before working in a dildo
(which gets worked on her in return).  We actually get a glimpse at some
pink when Moana opens up her hairy pussy for Leanna (I knew there had to be
some pink underneath there somewhere! :-) but it's brief.  Hmm.. and part
of the music that plays in the background is a twisted version of something
that I've heard on some Charlie Brown special a long time ago: you know
that Beethoven-type character who's always tickling the old ivories?  It's
a tune he usually plays.  Anyhow.. I don't think Charles Schultz would like 
me to make reference to him in a porno movie review, so it's best that I stop
here :-).  What this girl/girl amounts to isn't much but the varied camera 
angles make it flow along smoothly.

The next day.  Moana visits Jason at his office again and he tells her she
needs to change her image so he sets an appointment with a hairdresser to
start off with.  He also suggests she change her name to Lamborgini Ferrari
but she prefers 'Moana'.  Starting to show signs of hostility towards Jason,
she leaves his office before getting into a dispute with him, heading for
her scheduled appointment.

"I hope Jason's sending us a good one today, baby," Elaine (Nina Hartley)
tells her stylist partner Brock (Marc Wallice).  Once Moana shows up, they
are enthralled by her exquisite features and get right to work.  They sit
her down and begin rubbing her shoulders and feet.  "So smooth and firm,
Brock," Elaine softly moans.  He agrees and she continues, "I think a small
trim might be in order."  Brock moves closer to Elaine to see what she's
talking about and they both stare down between Moana's legs at her hairy
pussy.  "Just a little," he says but first Elaine decides to start off with
a shampoo (that means, diving face down to work her tongue all over it).

- This is a hot threeway except for the fact that Nina Hartley, one of
porn's all-time sweethearts, doesn't get dicked by Marc.  Still, she does
share a double blowjob with Moana, has her pussy eaten, and laps away at
Marc's dick when he cums (even though Moana's the one who receives the
facial).  This tryst takes place on a bed which is conveniently placed in
the hair parlor but first they start off with Moana sitting in a barber's
chair while she blows Wallice and is eaten out by Hartley (in which Nina
looks up at Moana giving head and says, "I love a good dinner show").
Moana and Marc do a nice missionary with Nina eventually getting into a
little face-sitting.  Both women have rather tasteful boobjobs and are
enthusiastic enough in this scene but still, it would've been nice to see
Nina get a little ham slamming.

Moana, wearing a nice tight leather outfit, goes back to see Jason and
curses up and down about how she's getting fucked - exactly what he warned
her about when they first got together.  "How come everyone you send me does
push-push in my mouth?" she asks.  He just tells her she needs to be more
careful.  "Now listen," he says.  "We need to do something about your body."
"About my body or with my body like more push-push?" she asks.  He assures
her it'll just be a couple of aerobics instructors who will tone her up.
"These men.. they no fuck me, right?" she asks.  "Moana, you're breakin' my
fuckin' heart here.  Trust me," he says and sends her off to the gym.

After she leaves, there's a knock on his door and Mavis Parks (P.J. Sparxx),
his 2 o'clock appointment, steps in.  She wants to find work as a figure 
model but Jason's already asking her how her oral skills are.  "What do
oral skills have to do with anything?" she asks.  He replies, "Oral skills
are very important.  That is, if you want to get to the top.  Very, very,
very important.  If you know what I mean."  Then he stands up and unzips
his pants.

- P.J. gives Buck a sensual blowjob but he gives her a rather vigorous pussy
eating session that has her shuddering with intensity right before they get
into a mish (too bad they cut the oral short).  It's an intense missionary
as well, but still short.  Buck pulls out of her and cums in her mouth, then
she flickers her tongue around his head.  A nice scene, however brief, P.J.
looks cute but doesn't get into her usual high squealing (you know, the ones
where she tightens her lips, widens her eyes, and screeches as high as 
Mariah Carey can sing? :-).  This was a bit of a pointless scene because
P.J. just shows up at Buck's office and they practically get right into the
sex, but it still adds a few sparks that don't make it boring.

"So Mr.Thrush," pants Mavis.  "How are my oral skills?"  They're just fine
by him and he starts going on about all the other people she needs to see
- the exact same road he sent Moana down.  "Oh, by the way, how's your
English?" he asks.

The gym.  The instructors are working out when Moana enters and greets them
(both of their names happen to be Peter).  "You know what they say," says
Peter (North).  "Two peters are better than one."  The guys tell her they're
going to give her a good workout then Peter (that would be North again) says
they'll also have to work on her 'pubis aerotis'.  So they send her into 
another room to change her clothes but before she heads out she says to
them, "I like you.  You're very professional.  You don't try to fuck me like
everyone else" (I thought by now she wouldn't have been so slow on the 
uptake!).  Anyway, she changes into an aerobic jumpsuit and keeps her nylons
and heels on (so you can just imagine now how strange - well.. sexy - this
looks).  "I never seen workout clothes like this," she says.  "What kind
of exercises we are going to do?"  North suggests they start off with the
'glutius maximus' (better known as giving head).  Doesn't look like she
minds getting a little more push-push yet again!

- Moana kneels down and takes turns working her hungry little mouth over
their cocks then does them one at a time as she takes T.T. doggy style and
Peter missionary.  I don't know if it's just me, but her pubic hair seems
to look more trimmed as her scenes progress.  Also, I still can't make it
out but she has a tattoo on her left wrist that looks like some kind of
scorpion or snake or some really twisted cartoon character.  Anyhow, the 
guys give it to her d.p. style next (with T.T. doing the anal honors) then
they both cum on her backside.  T.T. gives his usual weak load but Peter
squirts about 6-7 loads all over her milky white flesh.

We go back to Jason's office where Jenny's underneath his desk giving him
head.  Moana bursts into the room and curses up and down again.  Jenny leaves
them to their business and Moana says, "I'm getting fucked.  Push-push
everytime!"  "How can you say that after all I've done for you?"  She tells
him what the instructors did to her, then after hearing her out, he says that
at least her English is improving.  "That's not the point.  You told me that
you will make me a model.  A big star.  Fame, fortune!  But all I get is
fucked!"  He tells her she's been through a lot and perhaps needs to talk
to a psychiatrist (whom he calls a 'head' doctor) to wind down but she 
assures him she's not crazy.  He begs for her to go see one because she needs
to unwind, especially since he's got a whole lot of photo shoots lined up
for her.  "Well, ok," she says.  "As long as they don't fuck me."  He tells
her to trust him but she knows what that means.  "Something tells me I am
going to get fucked again."  "I mean, really.. How could you say that?  Would
I lie?" he says then turns over to us and smirks.  Now, for God knows WHAT
reason, he goes ahead and asks, "Have you ever seen one of THESE, little
girl?" and unzips his pants (why'd he do this again??  What's the point??).
So she gets angry again and curses her head off in the beautiful Italian
language (ok, maybe what she says to him here isn't exactly beautiful.. 
unless you love verbal abuse, but anyhow.. :-).  "Uh huh, I know what that
means," he tells her then looks over at us and says, "Wait 'til you see what
we do to her in part 2!"  The end.

This was a decent little feature with pretty girls and some funny dialog but
what would have made it so much better are lengthier sex scenes (this would
have greatly helped), no looping (of which there was just the slightest case
in one or two scenes) and better lighting (it's distracting to see shadows
that are cast on the performers' bodies, making it seem like they're filming
in a cheap studio - even though the video quality is great with crisp, clear
color).  Scotty Fox did the nice camerawork here and you'll feel like you're
watching one of his Legend videos from the body display of the cast (not to
mention the editing work).  Like I brought up earlier, this probably would
have worked out much better as a full length feature instead of two parts
but it still packs a few punches to make it worth the look.  Even though
Moana's the main star, let ALL of these ladies 'reel you in' for a 
fun-filled time.
