When it comes to the creation of solo jack-off tapes, director Dirk Yates seems to come up with an endless collection of hot Marine boys who are willing to get naked. Yates places these fellows, one at a time, into a formulaic routine that is often imitated ("never duplicated"), by other companies. Yates has good reason to feel sincerely flattered in TFTPTN 11 , as it rocks from start to finish.
Our favorite Marine pup, Cameron Sage, is the first to grace the screen here. He appears relaxed and sexy as Yates informs him that he is among his favorites. Yeah, me too. Sage replies, "Well Dirk, you know that I always enjoy jacking off over here, especially right after work." He strips out of his Marine uniform and watches a porno tape on an unseen monitor. Sage shows us the goods as he rouses his sleeping monster. Yates occasionally barks out a command, getting Sage to arrange his lovely loins in a multitude of stunning positions. I can see where Yates would enjoy working with Sage; there's not a bad angle on him anywhere. As prompted, Sage opens up his handsome ass cheeks to reveal a yummy unshaved rosebud. The fact that he chooses to leave his ass and balls unshaved is not lost on Yates, who comments on the lush abundance of blond pubic hair. Chiseled-jaw Sage takes it all in stride as he spanks the monkey for our pleasure. And we are pleased indeed. What a hottie. Without much warning, he blows his load onto his chest, grins, then wanders off to the shower.
Bryan, a 20-year-old from Indiana, is next up at bat. Like Sage before him and the string of hotties after him, Brian responds to the questions. "Why do you want to be in an adult feature?" (new experience), "What's your favorite fantasy?" (10 person orgy; men and women) and so on. This line of questions lets us get to know the pups a bit and makes them all seem like "boys next door." Bryan features blue eyes, a cleft chin and ears that stick out far enough to whisper "big cock" before he even slips out of his pants. Yates leaves this 6'5" "tall drink of water" fellow alone for a while so he can relax. Bryan arouses himself by watching a porn tape that clearly features T.J. Hart (no, we never see it, but Ms. Hart's sounds are unmistakably recognizable). By the time Yates returns to the room, Bryan is fully naked, fully hard and grinning like a mischievous schoolboy. Yates gets him to flip over and stick his ass out for the camera. Nice butt. When the big money shot arrives, it is a bit less than spectacular (prompting Yates to announce "let me know when you're going to cum," even though he already had).
This sort of solo scenery repeats itself with the remaining guys, each telling about themselves and then jacking off for us. Enormous wieners seem to be the common thread (especially that of the fellow named "Phyve"), as well as the perennial Marine motif that dominates Yates' work.
The only real gripe of this title is the persistent mismatch of audio to the tape, calling to mind those ridiculous TV movies we've all watched in the middle of a sleepless night. Ordinarily I'd recommend that the viewer simply mutes the audio, but in this case the dialogue is essential to the beauty of the feature itself. Just do your best.
If solo is your thing, you already know all about the wonderful nature of this series. For those of you that have yet to give solo a try, this is as good a get on point as there is. Enjoy!
