With "Ryker's Web," superstar Ken Ryker turns in an easygoing easy-to-like vanity piece that doesn't seem at all selfish. He's in three scenes, but the scenes are darn lucky to have him, and he allows the scenes without him to sizzle every bit as much as his own, and in one case, perhaps more. Ryker looks not a day older than he ever has, just as fresh, just as hunky, just as strapping and hung as ever.
Tom Katt and Chris Taylor go knocking on the door to a bar that is closed. They only want to play pool and tell the manager "we'll make it worth your while." The manager calls his boss for approval and tells him "they are really hot," which is all the boss needs to hear. So, Tom and Chris go to play a game of pool. Chris, chiseled in handsome face and stacked lean body, wins the game, which means Tom has to please him. Tom Katt looks amazingly hale here, his body looks completely toned. Tom begins on Chris' nipples and then starts blowing Chris with a soft calm blowjob. Tom is easily able to deep-throat the dick, and the suck is show in good close-up. Chris stretches out on the table to suck Tom, but very quickly, Tom returns to sucking, whipping the dick all over his face, interrupted only be a hot section where Chris feels all over Tom's torso, his fingers mining every deep crevice created by Tom's muscles. Tom goes back to his blowjob, this time inserting a finger in between Chris' asscheeks. Tom pops open a condom and is off fucking Chris doggy over the pool table. Lit beautifully, they glisten as Johnny West, shown only to be a great body, but no face, notices them and jacks off to their work. Tom plugs away at Chris with excellent ease. He keeps the fuck standard and without frills, but expertly delivered and very well-paced. When he fucks Chris missionary just as well, Chris handles himself into a cum-shot, followed by a grand one from unseen Johnny and finally one from hardworking Tom.
Ken and spectacularly fit and gorgeous brunet Drew Larson were watching the whole episode on a monitor and in a wordless scene (you never hear Ken's voice throughout the story as all of the moans are left off the soundtrack and Ken has no dialogue). Ken sits down in a robe, exposing his massive member, which Drew of course cannot resist. Drew is appropriately worshipping of the giant cock, one hand on the base and his mouth tireless in licking and sucking all he can. Drew shirks his shirt to reveal his ultra-hot body and Ken opens the robe to show off his chest, sprawling and hairy. If possible, he looks to be in better shape than ever. Drew is rather fearless in his blowjob, not making a huge deal of out if with big eye effects or a stretched mouth. Ken seems happy. It's hard to tell on his emotionless face, but he rocks back and forth in his chair to the rhythm of Drew's suck. After the blowjob, we sprint right to the fuck, with Drew's pert ass looking like it's going to do major battle with the full shaft Ken is about to stick in there. Ken doesn't let Drew flinch when he inserts, just shoving it all in and going about halfway before starting the spirited fuck. Drew cums being fucked and then Ken cums a giant load with Drew eating his balls. When Ken finishes, Drew continues his chew, which allows for a few extras seconds to drool over Ken's body and dick.
Rocky is tending bar in a scene that brings a rather attitude-filled Billy Herrington into the bar. Rocky buys him a drink and Billy summarily dismisses the hunky bare-chested barkeep. Good for Rocky, for it means he can get drinks for Tino Lopez and Rhett O'Hara. However, they don't have much time to drink, for sucking face is more their speed. Rocky tries to stop them, but their delicious chemistry has already taken over and the story's best scene has already begun. Tino, shaved completely, but looking as hot as any man was ever allowed to, makes a good partner for Rhett, covered with unique tattoos and looking boyishly adorable. They kiss for a while and then perfectly-formed big-eared Tino goes down on Rhett, which keeps both of them hard, as well as Rocky, who has pulled out his cock to watch. Tino starts out with a very sensual teasing blowjob that keeps Rhett smiling the whole time, and keeps his ferociously fat dick very hard. Rocky finally joins them, which brings the talented porn star count up to three and the scene kicks into even higher gear. Rocky hunkers down on Rhett's cock while Rhett takes on Tino's uncut wonder. Rhett is off like a shot and Rocky keeps pace a few feet away. Rocky then gets both dicks to play with and he's a wiz. He alternates beautifully. The camera has spent oodles of time showing us Rocky's tasty ass, and after a brief time where Tino sits on Rocky's face to be rimmed while Rhett blows Rocky, Rocky then parks himself down on Rhett's dick and rides with abandon. With the same speed Rocky rides, Rhett scoops upwards into him. Rocky has no problem at all taking it all, even when Tino stands in front of him to get blown. After spitfire Rhett has had his turn, powerhouse Tino gets a chance to plug Rocky, and does so with a manic fuck that barely rattles Rocky, who chomps down hard on Rhett's dick at the same time. Aggressive Tino has a wonderful time fucking Rocky in this scorching three-way and shows no signs of tiring with such a beautiful ass in which to lodge his dick. Rocky cums first and then the other two get to plunk their shots down on him, Rhett letting loose a doozy.
Ken comes swaggering into the bar wearing only leather pants and a leather shirt. He couldn't look hunkier. He spies Ian Gabriel and Anthony Holloway about to get it on at a chain-link spider web at the end of the bar, so he goes to watch. Ken leans against a box as muscular boyish Anthony starts to blow severe-featured brunet Ian. Anthony blows with customary zest when Ken undoes his tight pants and lets out the creature. Naturally, both guys stop what they are doing and Ken finally joins them. He takes his place at the center of the web and Ian takes over the sucking chores. Ian aims to impress quickly by going for broke immediately. He stretches his mouth wide and gulps down a good half of the dick, wetting the piece abundantly to get it to slip down his throat that much more easily (which it does). Anthony comes over for some face time with the dick and Ian moves to the balls and the chest. Anthony is a faster sucker, with Ken face-fucking him to help out. Anthony and Ian are well-matched in talent, and it's a shame they only get to share for a few minutes. Ken turns around so Ian can rim his hairy butt, which looks so meal-worthy. Ken's eyes are closed in ecstasy (I hope) as Ian does a great job, Anthony still working on the dick. Anthony is the recipient of Ken's fuck, blowing Ian as he takes it. The insertion shots are kept in, and they show why Ken's pecker is so famous. He sticks it into Anthony, whose eyes bug out as Ken is twisting it in there. The only time the natural noises of the performers is present is in this section, and it's wonderful to have them. Anthony is pained, but it's a good pain. He then proceeds to take a good fuck from Ken, barely able to suck Ian, having to concentrate fully on his top. Ken burrows very deeply into Anthony's ass, which accepts him fully once Anthony is used to it. Anthony actually helps Ken out by working backwards into Ken. Anthony then takes it on all-fours, with Ken using both of his hands to get it all stuffed into his ass. It's mighty pretty to watch. At the very end of the scene, Ken has his second gargantuan shot, coating Anthony's stomach.
Ken isn't too tired for one last scene, the best of the three in which he performs. He returns home and peels off his leather to go take a shower. The shower scene goes to what I said about the vanity not being overdone. Instead of a long scene that shows off every one of Ken's muscles, the shower scene is kept brief. As Ken dries off, he spies chipper blond Trent Atkins in the tub behind him. Flashing his first smile so far, he bounds over to Trent, who immediately opens wide for the Ryker cock. Trent Atkins, a great bottom, is an ideal choice for a Ryker scene. Tiny but built, he makes Ryker look like a giant, but don't mistake his size for lack of talent or stamina, for he's about to show it all. Trent sucks Ken deeper than anyone else so far, his small face finding room to gulp up huge inches of a dick that is longer than his entire face. He's completely passionate in his blowjob, his searching big eyes looking up now and then to catch Ken's twinkling smile. He swallows Ken's dick in a few positions, all of which seem totally comfortable for him. And all of this with a tongue piercing, no less! Ken has been lucky with great bottoms in Drew and Anthony so far, but Trent sets himself apart from the others and steals the scene right out from under Ken. There is absolutely no push-back as Ken works his cock into Trent, shooting it in with a speed that seems to surprise Ken. Trent doesn't even flinch. Ken shoves his entire dick into Trent to the balls. That's a lot of cock. Trent's bubbly ass is ready for full invasion and doesn't resist at all. Trent seems so enlivened by this excellent fuck. Trent then sits himself down on Ken's dick and though Ken works upward for a bit, this is now Trent's show as he bobs up and down, managing to skewer himself on the full length of Ken's cock. Facing away from Ken, Trent rides even better, even more smoothly, but with increased determination. Ken fits in just as nicely when he's back in charge in a missionary, and this time with a huge amount of power. No complaints from Trent. Trent pops being fucked hard by Ken and then Ken has his THIRD winning shot all over Trent's face and hair.
Working for himself, in his capacity as writer, director and producer, Ken Ryker has a whooping good time with "Ryker's Web." I can't imagine too many of these guys had to be asked twice to share screen time with the master, and that leads to a cast every bit as delicious and talented as Ken himself. Ken, who often has trouble expressing himself in his sex scenes, doesn't even have to here. His screen partners show how much fun is being had. If the three-way without Ken is the highlight scene, Ken has tons of screen time with which to impress, and gets to do it in three scenes, the last of which is a real stunner. Let's hope this leads to more, because I don't want to get unstuck from "Ryker's Web" anytime soon.
DVD features: Dolby sound; the full-length feature; interactive menus; slide-show gallery (with scads of Ryker beefcake shots, as well as a great one of Ken and Trent in the tub); and no regional coding (playable worldwide).
A DVD Review by Brent Blue
Porn icon Ken Ryker has finally taken control of his career with the creation of his own production outfit called, natch, Ken Ryker Films. Ryker's Web is the first release of what is promised to be several films centered on one of the most famous cocks in the history of gay pornography. I find it curious that, although it's made very clear that Ryker both wrote and directed this maiden offering, no other technical credits, including directing or videography, are given in the film or on the box cover. I guess Ryker knows that his name alone is enough to sell this and any future title that his company may release.
All the more power to him, but he may want to gain more quality control over his product by sharing some of his duties with more experienced individuals. It's certainly great to see Ryker and his hulking frame onscreen again in any vehicle, but the strain of his numerous responsibilities shows not only in his distracted performance but also in the technical aspects of the production. There are still several moments that shine in Ryker's Web, but there is an unshakeable air of fatigue surrounding the production that keeps it from hitting the sexual heights it promises.
The premise of Ryker's Web seems to center on a leatherish bar or nightclub owned by Ryker. Cameras strategically placed around the dimly lit establishment allow Ryker and his assistant, Drew Larson, to peek into every corner and crevice from the confines of their bright and comfortable main office. Needless to say, they take every advantage to check out everyone who walks into their place of business.
Our story begins as longtime porn favorite Tom Katt and boyish Chris Taylor try to sweet talk their way into an early afternoon game of pool at Ryker's establishment. Lean and shirtless barkeep Rocky has to call the boss for permission, and soon Katt and Taylor are wielding sticks and racking up the billiards. They agree that "winner takes all" in this match, and it's not too long until Taylor nails the eight ball and agrees to take all that Katt has to offer. The suck-and-fuck session that follows is pleasant if not particularly arresting and proves to be a harbinger of what's to come for the rest of the production.
Katt seems to getting beefier with every video, and muscle fanatics will be especially pleased when Taylor takes a moment to trace every muscular crevice in Katt's impressive chest and abdomen. I especially enjoyed the sight of Taylor's smooth and creamy bubble butt as he lay face down on the pool table waiting for a thorough fingering from Katt. Bare-chested barback Johnny West makes a long-dicked but brief appearance in this scene as he jacks off in the shadows to Katt fucking Taylor six ways to Sunday.
I have to take a moment here and mention that both the music and sound editing of Ryker's Web is regrettably poor. Annoyingly repetitive light jazz/funk is played through almost every scene and often obscures what little dialogue we're allowed to hear. I'm not alone when I say that the verbal give and take between sexual partners can often elevate a scene into scorching hot territory. It's clear that Katt is offering some hot talk to Taylor during their scene, and, frankly, I'd rather hear some of that rather than the endlessly looped music that is offered in its stead.
The superstar himself makes his first sexual appearance in the second scene as he wanders into the main office clad only in a loosely knotted bathrobe. He sits opposite assistant Drew Larson and offers him a tantalizing glimpse of his famous meat. Larson can't help himself and soon finds himself on his knees, sucking Ryker's thick and curving cock for a lengthy period of time. It's clear that Ryker enjoys the attention, but there is little evidence of growing heat between he and Larson, and the only physical contact between the two is mouth to cock. Call me old-fashioned, but I think a little stroke or a little caress or, gosh, even a kiss might have been nice to fan the flames. The scene concludes on an oddly uninspired note with Larson on his back being perfunctorily poked by our burgeoning writer and producer.
The third segment begins with buffed-up Billy Herrington wandering into the bar for a late afternoon brew. He harasses barkeep Rocky with some gruff commands and sidelong sneers, but his comments and the scene itself lead nowhere. I'm curious if a subsequent scene between Herrington and Rocky was filmed but cut from the final product, since it seems such a shame to have muscle god Herrington in a nonsexual role. We also never see Herrington leave the bar as Rocky's attention turns to two new customers, Tino Lopez and Rhett O'Hara, who have sidled up to the other side of the bar and have promptly begun to make out.
O'Hara and Lopez ramp up the public display of affection until O'Hara doffs his jeans and sits on the bar in order to be serviced by Lopez. There are several nice and juicy close-ups of O'Hara's cockhead getting seriously spit-shined by the darkly handsome Lopez. Rocky likes what he sees and, after unzipping his jeans to release the straining boner inside, soon makes the twosome into a threesome.
I was particularly taken with the picture of Rocky as he lay on his stomach on the bar with his head just over the edge while O'Hara and Lopez stuff his young mouth with some hot hard cock. Our hot little barkeep proves to be this segment's most valuable player when both O'Hara and Lopez take turns banging Rocky's tight muscular ass. We close with copious cum shots landing on Rocky's taut belly, but some unfortunate shadows keep us from seeing the full glory of these final moments.
Ryker decides to check out the clientele himself, and he strides through the main door in full leather regalia. He finds dark-haired twinks Anthony Holloway and Ian Gabriel taking advantage of a tremendous chain-link web constructed in the middle of the bar. Ryker soon become the center of attention as he joins the two young pups for some lengthy cock and body worship. The subsequent scene can best be described as more awkward than awesome, although I found it a treat to see Ryker finally loosen up and honestly enjoy a brief rim job from Gabriel.
The final scene finds Ryker returning home to take a short but nicely photographed shower. Fans will be pleased to finally get a clear and complete look at Ryker's still fabulous body and ever-thick hose. It's also a nice touch when Ryker steps out of the shower and it's revealed that blond superbottom Trent Atkins has been waiting for him in the bathtub all this time.
Ryker and Atkins look great together, and Atkins is both tender and insatiable as he settles into giving Ryker a long and luxurious blowjob. Sunlight streams into this surprisingly intimate scene as Ryker seems to momentarily release the strain that has been plaguing him throughout the video.
Unfortunately, some of the technical issues I mentioned earlier rob the scene of a fitting conclusion. Atkins can be one of the most vocal and demanding bottoms in porn, but here he is superceded by sound editing that prefers to replay the same annoying light jazz rather than his trademark stream of nasty talk. Some odd camera angles and jarring jump cuts serve only to drain from the scene whatever heat there was between Atkins and Ryker.
Ryker is a true superstar and, like Jeff Stryker before him, understands that the best way to control your career is to take matters in your own hands. Ryker's Web is an honorable first step in Ryker's attempt to combine his own interests with those of his loyal audience. I trust that Ryker's output will improve as he gains more experience on the business side of the equation. We can only hope that it will allow him to enjoy his time onscreen as much as his fans have in the past and will no doubt continue to do in the future.
