Winner of AVN’s Best Drama for “Wanted” in 2016, Stormy returns with a very emotional, very intense drama with this stellar feature. One of adult’s premier writer, directors and performers Ms. Daniels resume is chock full of highlights, awards and accolades as she continues to turn out winning productions of every kind. This one has everything you would expect from a vehicle written, directed and starring Ms. Daniels. This latest effort has an engrossing story line, great locales, a solid cast of actors and performers, blistering sex and always the unexpected. This will be another much talked about release from Ms. Daniels.
The premise of the story is a woman (Celeste, played by Ms. Daniels) who is stuck in a very bad marriage to her very rich, but wheel chair confined husband. She lives a great lifestyle but there is no satisfaction coming her way sexually and she needs to find ways to take care of that. Of course she finds her way to several avenues of sexual pleasure, but in the meantime good old hubby is getting suspicious. So he hires a private investigator (Marcus London) to keep tabs on his wife. His high priced female lawyer (Kenzie Taylor) is also on the case in more ways than one.
Good roles all around with this cast that really make the story line and plot work very well and keep the viewers interest. There are five sex scenes in this release and they all work well except for a problem with the three way girl scene with Stormy, Asa and Kleio. It looks like someone forgot to add some lighting because the scene, while offering up a lot of hotness, is just way to dark, at least for me. That is basically the only complaint I have with this film. The other sex scenes are loaded with a lot of sizzle. The one with Asa and Marcus, the PI that Celeste thinks is out to kill her, is a real steamy view with some great visuals. But then with Asa you never expect sex to be mundane! Then there is Celeste’s riding instructor (Brendon Miller) and of course, with nothing going on at home Celeste gets her instructor to give her what she needs besides riding instructions. So he gives her a different kind of ride with a very hot and heavy anal invasion that comes off beautifully and cums big time for both!
You know by now I never give everything away in a review and that holds true here. There is a lot more going on in the life of Celeste and those she is around. There are the twists and turns that will have you wondering just what will happen next. As in most all of Ms. Daniels films this also has a surprise ending that you never see coming and is delivered well. As always the writing is very crisp, sharp and believable. The casting for this film was perfect and it was great to see adult film veterans, Kyle Stone as the wheel chair bound husband and Veronica Hart in non sex roles as part of this production. I have to say that Kenzie Taylor, who plays Stone’s lawyer, was our NightMoves Best New Starlet of the Year winner last year, and this latest role shows why.
As always the setting, backdrops and all the extras that go into Ms. Daniels films are on point. The cinematography was exceptional with great angles, super visuals and sharp images. The only major blemish being the all girl three way lack of lighting that I mentioned above. That aside, once again Stormy Daniels delivers another couples friendly vehicle that has everything you want in an adult film. There is sex, action, intrigue, danger, surprises and it is total adult entertainment. This is will be talked about in industry circles and should definitely get some big buzz come awards time. By the way, in addition to Kenzie, Ms. Daniels also was our winner of the Best Director award from NightMoves last year also. So make sure you get her latest sex drama, “Vendetta” from Wicked Pictures and enjoy.
