Live by the sword, the pun, is a motto to live by! I don't know what it means to a Marine, but in sexual terms, amen! Well, the talented men of director Dirk Yates' retinue certainly know their way around swords, and prove it over and over in "Live by the Sword," a clever military-themed flick that doesn't overdo the puns, but provides great sex under the guise of uniforms. With a cast that pretty much looks ready for some form of service, it's often a surprise, a welcome one, that they perform as well as they do.
The story starts with Sgt. Sledge Sawyer, an officious looking young man with a killer lean body and a strong nose, demonstrates how to use the sword for Austin Brooks, who looks very similar to Sledge, with a similarly defined body and simple all-American look. Austin's mind wanders to Sledge doing the drill naked, brandishing now two huge swords. Actually, when both are hard, the cock inchage is off the charts. These two young men are massive. The fantasy continues with the two of them standing apart and managing their own luscious cocks. Sledge has more fun with his dick, a flashier jacker to Austin's more modest worker. Austin worms his way over to Sledge so the two of them can play with each other. There is no other contact other than grabbing at each other's cocks. After they rub them together for a while, each cums on the other. Austin is jolted back to reality at the end.
Danny and Steve, beefier guys with a few tattoos (Danny is brunet and Steve blond) are bitching about Sledge when Yates regular Cade Devilin shows up mighty pissed. He's having problems with Sledge as well. What's more relaxing for three hot Marines than sex? Cade strips down to his incredibly muscular frame, all tan and sexy under a tad of dyed blond hair. Cade starts the action by blowing Danny, who has a proud upstanding dick and then continues on Steve, also with an impressive dick. Cade whips back and forth between them, impressive as hell in alternating. Danny moves on to suck Steve while Cade continues on him. Danny is another admirable performer, without Cade's voracious energy and great use of hand. The trio continues with Cade getting sucked by Danny who is done by Steve. Danny manages the deep-throat on Cade here. Danny rims Cade's absolutely delicious ass with lavish long licks and then Cade gets in the middle of the two to get fucked by Danny and suck Steve. Danny's fuck is standard but smooth, slow-paced on purpose. Steve takes over fucking, using his pal Danny, and goes for a faster fuck. In a display of absolute versatility, Cade then fucks Steve. Cade is a total tease with the cock, going through a long insertion for maximum effect, looking so hot as he hits away at Steve. Steve has a good shot on Cade's pec and then Danny hits on the other one. The (hopefully unscripted) reaction to Cade's blast is "God, that's a lot of cum!" and he isn't lying. Kudos to Yates for using three wonderfully versatile men in one scene.
The detested Sledge returns to his bed for a rest, his cock flopping out of his underwear as he slumbers. Tall dark and very hairy Jake silently steals into the barracks and plays very softly with the dick. He begins to suck it, very gently so as not to break the mood (which is helped by dim lighting and good music). One of the best suckers here, he slides effortlessly into a thoughtful slow deep-throat. With great precision, so as to let Sledge sleep, he manages to wrangle Sledge out of his underwear, and then Sledge rolls over. This gives Jake access to his butt, which he licks even more lovingly. The hairy hole is filmed up close with great attention as Jake treats it beautifully. When Jake goes back to blowing, he is rewarded with a face full of cum, but still Sledge sleeps. Even the sated cock doesn't stop Jake, who continues licking and rimming afterwards. In moments, he's skewering himself on Sledge's dick and carefully riding up and down (Sledge still sleeps, which is a little unbelievable). Jake does a very exciting up-and-down, both facing and facing away from Sledge. Still riding, Jake cums and then he jacks off Sledge again. Sledge goes back to full sleep and Jack slips back on the undies and disappears.
Austin Brooks and Cody Davidson, another adorably compact blond, have gone on leave from the base and are enjoying their freedom, particularly being away from Sledge. Austin relates to Cody just how much of a perfectionist for sword routines (the real swords) and Cody offers to give him a relaxing massage. However, he dives right for Austin's immaculately worked-out abs and soon enough into Austin's crotch. If you don't remember from the first scene, I'll remind you just how gargantuan Austin's dick is. In fact, it seems even bigger here with a tiny face and dedicated mouth working on it. Cody is rabid about blowing, not missing a trick with his mouth or hands (one which sports a quizzically shown wedding band). He owns the beginning of the scene with his wowing sucking work. Austin blows Cody's more manageable upward-curving cock. He doesn't have Cody's guff, but the dick is so damn hot in its shape that it doesn't matter how much of it disappears down his throat. Cody bends Austin over and eats his ass, starting out tenderly and then turning animal about it. Austin gets to fuck Cody on his back. Believe it or not, Austin fits all the way into Cody's butt, the whole dick disappearing as Cody remains rock-hard himself. Austin grinds a fine fuck into Cody, who constantly pushes himself onto Austin to take even more. Cody then takes it doggy, and this fuck has even more oomph. Austin seems positively gleeful at this wide open willing hole. After both cum, I can see how this is good relaxation!
Navy commander Walt Waters comes to take charge of the base, sending his handsome tiny very buff assistant Jake Cannon to fetch Sledge. Walt, a big slab of muscular man, is not happy that Sledge has been giving his guys "grief" and suggests a certain kind of discipline. "Remove his sword ... NOT THAT SWORD" he bellows to Jake when he tries to undo the wrong buckle. Walt undresses while Jake busily blows Sledge's still-luscious cock. Jake, the scene's standout, is a total workaholic. There isn't a moment during the beginning of this scene where he stops blowing, not even to breathe. In the seconds it takes Walt to take off Sledge's pants, he turns automatically to Walt's cock, returning when Sledge is undressed (except for his gloves). His alternating is thrilling and he's darn talented. Walt takes over sucking Sledge when Jake goes to remove his clothing. He's a power-sucker, seemingly happiest when face-fucked. After this gritty blowjob, Walt tosses Sledge on the desk and eats from his ass, in one of those full-faced rims where everything in a five-mile radius gets wet. Jake returns to the action by blowing Walt as the latter licks gustily at Sledge's butt. Walt can't get enough of dick, going back to Sledge and then blowing chubby-faced Jake as well. Sledge fucks Jake, back to blowing Walt. Sledge, solo in his first scene and asleep in the second, becomes a standout performer here. He totally lets loose, his balls slapping loudly against Jake's peerless round butt as he smacks at him with an aggressive nasty fuck. Jake takes it all without a sound, and Sledge gets even more ferocious with Jake on his back, no sign of energy letting up anywhere. The three then cum to end a most exciting scene.
If Sledge Sawyer is billed as the star of this saga, and given three scenes to prove it, he certainly earns that status. Yates cunningly works up to his power by giving him two low-wattage efforts and then finally unleashes him as an all-out star for the finale. It's a trick that really pays off. However, things are anything but dull before his full arrival. Cade Devilin is outstanding, as are Austin Brooks and Jake Cannon. For those unimpressed by shiny buttons and starched collars, the clothing comes off very quickly and all of the sex is fantastic. I'm a convert to a life by the sword, that's for sure.

A VHS + DVD Review by Brent Blue
Dirk Yates has drafted nine attractive, well disciplined and hung Marines to engage a comrade (or two) in their own personal "shock and awe" campaigns of sexual encounters. So what do we get from the proud and the few?
First when you get this film, look at the back of box, and you see two of the hottest motherfuckers, Sledge Sawyer and Austin Brooks, in fine uniform devoid of everything except hats and hard ones. They open the flick with a mutual masturbation scene that is a fantasy in the mind of Brooks. Both men are positioned on opposing walls, masturbating two of the prettiest well-proportioned cocks I have witnessed in a while, and I was totally fascinated by Sawyers balls. Both men are tall, muscular yet lean and thick-legged. They stand opposing each other, striking their cocks and fondling their balls until Brooks makes the move to encounter Sawyer as he approaches the other until dick head to dick head they nuzzle them together. Sawyer's cock is the hardest dick I have seen in a long while. It stands almost straight up and never goes soft, it is long and thick, and those nuts are firmly planted at the base, making Sawyer's cock look even thicker emphasizing its length and girth. But it is Brooks who reaches out and takes Sawyer's cock into his hands and holding it end-to-end with his own he creates one long shaft, jerking off himself and Sawyer. Sawyer resuming control of his own man member jacks himself off, aiming his load at Brooks' thigh. Brooks retaliates by directing his load onto Sawyers' abdomen.
With Brooks' fantasy concluding, we are now transported to the barracks of Cade Devilin, with the mononamed Danny and Steve. At this moment Devilin is entering the room, interrupting their conversation, ranting about a nurse, strip clubs and a need to get off. Devilin says he is going to take a shower, and that is all it takes for these three, who waste no time revealing their hard-ons and a need to skip that shower. They move toward a bench in the middle of the room, where Steve straddles it and sits down. With Danny flanking him on the left and Devilin at his feet, they begin a session of mutual swapping spit. Whether they are cocksucking, rimming or just plain fucking, these guys are true action figures and conquering heroes. They trade places, offering up masculine asses to each other and, at the other end, their mouths for simultaneous oral delivery. The military has trained them well and built those bodies into dominating fuck machines, and it all ends as Devilin surrenders up his chest to receive the loads jettisoned by Danny and Steve and soon afterwards mingles his own jism with theirs. Now would be a good time for that shower.
Time to peek in on Sawyer as he gets undressed for bed. Soon he is visited by Jake, a husky fellow, muscular and hung with the hottest, hairiest pair of ass cheeks (that I, myself, would relish the opportunity to explore that) get the opportunity to receive deserved attention and close-ups from Yates direction and camera work. Jake is the pro cocksucker and driving that thick cock, balls nestled tightly under the base up his ass until he spews his own load. After the private workout with the slumbering giant he leaves the room and the dreamy Marine, who has slept through the removal of his boxer shorts, a hand job, an exquisite looking rim job and two orgasms to himself and his dreams.
Two men not dreaming and on leave are Brooks and Cody Davidson. Hot and horny, they take their business inside and get down to what really matters - spreading legs and talking dirty. Brooks and Davidson are versatile men, getting on their knees to suck each other's cocks, rimming round, shapely asses or Davidson on his back taking that youthful cock up his ass. Brooks pins back his legs, kisses Davidson, then fucks him hard, thighs slamming against butt cheeks, moaning, until the cum flies and we transported to the last and final scene.
Walt Waters is the new commanding officer and sends petty officer Jake Cannon to fetch Sawyer, who is being called on the carpet, for harassing fellow enlistees. But it is Waters and Cannon who end up on the carpet paying oral homage to Sawyers' conquering cock, and it is Waters who ends up sitting on the sidelines as Sawyer fucks the young petty officer, rocking the desk and the young man until he is relieved of his load and not his commission.
Marines and masturbation. Who could have asked for any thing more except maybe throwing Brooks and Sawyer together instead of just teasing us with some sort of fantasy? But then again isn't that what jacking off is all about?
