This erotic pirate adventure feature some well choreographed sword fights, big scale pirate ships and, well, some really erotic XXX-scenes.
This is a "big budget porno" and you can almost see the money invested, not just in the sex scenes, but in the look and feel of the picture. Director's Brad Armstrong and Greg Steel have certainly gone to extreme length in creating an XXX-rated feature that (with exception from the XXX-scenes) feels like a major studio production and the result is very good indeed. It works both as a porno (which it is, not matter the artistic intentions) and as a pirate film. It blows Renny Harlin's Cutthroat Island away just in the opening credits! (Did I mention, this one has a nice Enigma-esque score too!)
The acting is better than the usual porno standards and leading man Vince Vouyer does his best delivering his lines and still can keep focused at his "main task" in the movie. Leading actress Jenna Jameson might never receive an Academy Award, but she makes up for it just looking sexy and doing what she, erm, does best.
The big treat if you get this on DVD is a very good "making of" with interviews from directors', cast and even some footage of the sword fighting practise and picking of wardrobe. Everyone is relaxed and seem to be enjoying themself (who wouldn't?) and Jenna Jameson is very talkative and funny.
This ain't Braveheart, but see this one if you're in for a great XXX-pirate adventure!
