One of the reasons that Joe Gage has always been regarded highly as a director to me is that he understands how a storyline can actually enhance the action in a porn production. Here, he demonstrates that ability in perhaps one of the best works of his career. Using sparse dialogue and voiceovers (just enough to set the stage) Gage goes from zero to sixty in his story of a military man who is bored with a desk job and whose idle mind spawns a devilish three-way with his charges. As the title character, Vinnie D'Angelo is more believable than any of those "real" soldiers supposedly conned into having gay sex for money. His take-no-prisoners 'tude and filthy dirty imagination are the solid jumping off point.
Tony Masala plays a dude who's been caught showing off his stuff on camera, and Vinnie orders Andrew Justice to eyeball his dick in the flesh and compare it to the print version. Looking isn't conclusive, however, so the men have to resort to sucking and fondling. That's a true soldier, anything for his C.O. The first part of the scene ends with a three-way jerk-off between the men, but that's when the action ramps up to fucking, and heavy-hung Tony's ass gets pronged by both Andrew and Vinnie before the scene ends with three more juicy loads.
Next, the screenplay takes an inspired twist, giving us Jason Ridge as one of those gay-for-pay soldiers mentioned earlier. Jason is in the lair of muscle dude Tyler Saint, who plays the pornographer eager to get Jason, both on film and in real life. Jason does the ingénue thing like he's never been on camera before, which is neat, acting innocent but ready to try anything. He gets his chance when Tyler shoves his cock in Jason's mouth, a hot oral sequence ends with Tyler blasting off just before he helps Jason get a nut with one of those masturbating sleeve toys. But the best is yet to come, a fucking scene that rocks. Tyler eats out Jason's hot behind briefly before he slam-fucks him, really pounding Jason deep and hard with his massive cock. The shot of Tyler plowing Jason, framed close, is sensational.
The next act is a riff on the dad-son thing, with the military dad catching up with an old buddy while his nearly-of-age son watches and waits for his chance. The dad, Scott Tanner, disappears after he and Brandon Monroe, as his buddy, come back home after a night of drinking. But it is Justin Burkshire, as the horny son, who makes the sparks happen in this hot three-way, whether he's diving on Brandon's cock just as his dad comes back into the room, or later, when he's fucking Brandon's ass while dad watches and jerks off nearby. The kinks just keep coming as the scene wends its way to a big finale, a hot, three-way fuck that has Brandon in the middle, getting fucked by dad while Brandon fucks the son. Add two sets of hot cum-shots, and this one is a winner from beginning to end.
Just when you think the screenplay can't possibly get any wilder, Gage throws yet another curveball, setting the big finale in a sperm bank. Dean Flynn, the rangy, sexy redhead who makes my heart go pitter patter, is one his way there to give up a sample of piss for testing (an A/C malfunction has led to all the testing samples being ruined). But no worries, because before the scene is over, so many bodily fluids have been spilled that they should have leftovers. The finale brings back Vinnie, and sprinkles in studs Kai Grant, Jean Paul Roccard, Erik Hall, Jason Reynolds and Tyler Kane for good measure. Dean and Kai get in some early piss play at a urinal, while Vinnie and Jean Paul settle in with a video to get hard for the sperm samples. Then, Kai slips into a lab coat (yep, he's the doc) so that he can begin to gather the jism the studs seem to be bursting with, since that initial cum orgy is closely followed by an oral free-for-all. There's fucking, too, and lots of it: Jason gets it from Jean Paul, and Kai bottoms for the stud next. Just watching the fucking elicits more cum-shots, with both Jean Paul and Erik blasting off, followed closely by Kai. The last shot in this sequence is of Kai in the middle as he gets urine samples from every guy in the room, their streams wetting down his GI boxers and body until he's drenched with it, which brings him to yet another orgasm.
In another room at the sperm bank, Dean gets on all-fours so that Vinnie can eat his ass -- meanwhile, Dean deep-throats Jason. Then, in for me the most scintillating fuck scene included, Vinnie sinks his cock deep into Dean's hole and fucks him. Dean's facial reactions show he's in ecstasy, and later he also shows he can suck his own cock, a nice surprise. Dean does a hot self-facial, and then Vinnie and Jason move in close so that Jason can unload on Dean's widespread asscheeks. The sergeant himself blows last, a big, spurting finale to a production that is literally packed with thrills.
McCool rules.
