Above average soft core porn
rlcsljo18 September 2002
Despite a fairly lame plot: Can't get anything to grow on farm and the bank is about to foreclose on the mortgage--this cast seems to get into their roles more than usual and the acting is way above par for this kind of fair (they probably had some of these experiences in their lives, or have seen "Cool Hand Luke" a zillion times).

The quality of the bodies is outstanding, especially Monique Parent, whose body is bordering on goddess-like. And contrary to the usual run of this ilk, the sex gets about as explicit as you can get without being straight out hard core porn.

If you are a Monique Parent fan, this is definitely a keeper.

Farming - Playboy style
augustian11 May 2017
Anyone who has watched soft core films has probably seen this type of film plenty of times. The story is pretty lame but there is plenty of naked flesh to compensate. In this one a farm is going downhill and is near to foreclosure, but never mind - plenty of sex in different locations should see everything right. There is plenty of eye-candy here.

There are about a dozen sex scenes including a girl/girl scene with Monique Parent and Lauren Hays. The sex action is of the soft core type with plenty of writhing about and moans and groans yet without the background music being too intrusive. The director, Romy Hayes uses the all too familiar style of multiple angles and swooping camera. Needless to say, the women are gorgeous especially the cute blond, Keri Crawford who does a couple of scenes. Ultimately though, the lame plot lets the film down but if you don't care about a plot and like your women hot, then this could be for you.

The farm is failing, because everyone's too busy having sex.

Warning. This review contains spoilers.

This is a very good softcore video from Playboy/Image. Plot? The city girl visits her friend's farm, which the bank is threatening to foreclose on, they need a good rain, evil development company, blah, blah, blah. The reason this farm is failing should be obvious. First, it only has 5 employees. Second, the first reason doesn't matter anyway, because everyone's too busy having sex with each other to do any work.

The sex however is great. The running time clocks in at 1:46 and there are 12 sex scenes, although a couple of those are pretty short. 11 are boy/girl pairings and 1 girl/girl. There's music playing during the scenes, but you can still hear the sounds of the performers. And except for the 2 shortest scenes (which are "fantasy segments"), all the scenes carry through to completion without any annoying interruptions.

The girl/girl scene is Monique Parent and Lauren Hays (and a bottle of baby oil) and is very good. Lauren Hays is in 5 of the other scenes. Monique Parent is in 2 of them. Allison Thomas-Miller has 3 scenes and Keri Crawford has 2. All of these women are knockouts and all give great performances. Although Lauren and Monique were the stars, I thought Keri stole the show. She's a beautiful blond with a great body and some very sexy tan lines.

There are a lot of different locations and props used: the hood of a car, a boat dock by the lake, an outdoor shower, a barn with chains hanging from the rafters. About half the scenes are outdoors and the rest indoors.

Excellent softcore and very easy to recommend.

Temptations
allmoviesfan19 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Lauren Hays and Monique Parent were at the forefront of the 90's softcore film explosion and are at their best in Temptations, which combines great (and inventive) sex scenes with at least the semblance of a plot - farm about to go under, couple trying to save it as part of a family legacy, and a nefarious guy trying to take the land for his own business interests - and some halfway decent acting in amongst all the skin and romantic entanglements.

To be honest, it's hard to look past Parent and Hays, especially in one scene that features them wearing nothing and wielding a bottle of tanning oil - definitely worth the price of admission, as the old saying goes. The film has a nice resolution, and should be remembered as one of the better films of it's kind.

Want a plot with your Skinemax? Here's one. :-)
VetteRanger6 April 2023
Cliff Potts was a surprise in a Skinemax film. He's a recognizable actor with lots of regular TV credits. So even though he only has a couple of brief scenes here, the producers went outside the "normal casts" to get a recognizable mainstream face.

And this movie has a plot thread which runs from beginning to end. The owners of a farm are being shafted by the lawyer representing them and are close to losing it, with foreclosure on the horizon. On minor quibble. The story has them three payments behind, and no one gets foreclosed nearly that quickly. It can take a year of missing payments.

However, a softcore movie with a real plot is a bonus, but that's not why you're watching it. LOL The girls look great and the sex scenes deliver. Recommended.
