Not since Eva Perón cruised the moonlit streets of Buenos Aires has there been this much fuss over the Argentine tango. The men in director Flash Conway's "Tango City" show off some pretty fancy footwork against the stunning background of one of South America's sexiest cities.
After Paulo Lima and Luciano Gomez meet on the busy street, it's only a short walk to Paulo's pad for some no-nonsense tricking. Luciano is dirty-blond and hairy-chested, a subtle contrast from Paulo's more traditional Latin looks. Neither man is exceptionally built, but both are toned and pleasantly in-shape. They only stop kissing long enough to undress one another, and in a matter of a few moments, Paulo uncovers quite a prize when he unbuttons his buddy's fly. Luciano's cock has a sexy crookedness, jutting an inch or so from his hips before bending sharply downward. Truth be told, the natural curve makes for some smooth sucking. While Paulo performs his oral ministrations, we're provided some excellent views from underneath, his heavy balls heavy like eggs. Somehow they make it to the bedroom. Paulo continues to cock worship in front of a fuzzily content Luciano. Luciano is not one to reciprocate, instead laying back and taking a more passive role. At one point, he tickles Paulo's hole with his fingertips, making it plain where the action is headed. I've got to hand it to Paulo -- the entire time he's getting banged, he never once loses his hearty erection. Neither top or bottom are especially voracious or vocal here, preferring instead to switch positions often and enjoy some easy fucking. When Luciano gets off, it's hard to miss his tremendous foreskin; as the cum flies, he pulls the skin down tight and then rolls it back up the entire length of his prick.
Miguel Lopez and Fernando Ramirez might be taking a break between classes. Chatting casually in a city café, they're the type of cheerful youths it's easy to envy. Slinging backpacks over their shoulders, Miguel and Fernando abandon the café and head back to Fernando's to continue chatting. Their absent-minded touches give way to more concentrated kissing. Sex between these two almost seems like an afterthought. Fernando, while not unattractive, is no exceptional beauty. Miguel is somewhat more exotic looking, the dark skin under his eyes making him look almost Indian. Cocksucking is a mere appetizer for the pair. Once Fernando gets on his hands and knees on top of the bed, squatting to expose his tender hole, the main course is served. Miguel lavishes Fernando, spending long minutes pulling Fernando's cheeks apart to get to the treasure buried deep. Fernando doesn't stray from this position and Miguel suits up and dives in. Chewing on the pillow muffles Fernando's happy cries while Miguel humps his buddy. Miguel is a top-in-training and skunks Fernando's back not too long after he really finds his rhythm. Without a doubt, the most tender moment is Miguel giving Fernando a hand -- with a few licks interspersed -- helping him get over the top.
The third sleepy vignette starts with Paulo Lima and Frankie "The Thug" ducking out of the rain and stoking the fires by drying off. Paulo immediately slides into his comfortable bottom role, bending at the waist and blowing Frankie. Paulo is so intent on his task that he completely misses Frankie's colorful tats which are draped over one arm and shoulder, dipping down the length of one meaty thigh. Strange, but Paulo looks considerably buffer here, and even more delicious than at the top of the film. No question that he's the sexiest man here and it's no surprise that the director uses him twice. Who knows why Roberto Martin drops by the apartment, but without missing a beat, Paulo and Frankie strip him down and welcome him into the fold. Paulo is ever eager to please and opens wide for both Roberto and Frankie, alternating sucks. Roberto has long skinny legs, curiously hairy while his upper torso is smooth. Those legs are impossible to miss as he stands tall near the headboard, encouraging Paulo to take him deeper into his mouth. Then after he gets a workout plugging Paulo's hot ass, he steps aside and lets Frankie take over. With Frankie's hips still slapping against his backside, Paulo jerks out a nasty load onto his flat stomach before the other men follow suit.
The most erotic session closes the film. Marcelo Romano and Gustavo Nunez meet while cruising one of Buenos Aires' elegant sculpture gardens. Picking up on silent cues, they head back to a quiet spot to make love, looking almost as good with their clothes on as they do with their clothes off. Too often in porn, kissing is overlooked in light of other, more intense activities. Here, Marcelo and Gustavo reminded this horny viewer just how essential kissing is to hot sex. I got considerable enjoyment watching these two kiss and tenderly pat and rub, each man slowly turning up the heat by touching the other. Imagine my utter state of bliss when completely undressed and fell into an achingly sweet 69. Marcelo and Gustavo both have beautifully shaped cocks, impressive without being too long or fat. Both made sure to make a feast of balls and ass during the 69 sequence. From the tips of their pricks to their tender holes, no inch of skin went untasted. Marcello tops here, and the anal sex he shares with Gustavo is a natural extension of their affection. At times, Gustavo completely submits to Marcello. Then he abruptly switches gears and urgently uses Marcello's cock to make himself feel good. Of course the cum-shots are thrilling (but the additional DVD footage has the pair holding each other and scrubbing down in the shower, footage which is as compelling as the rough and tumble fucking).
The lovemaking in "Tango City," with the exception of the fourth pairing, comes off without urgency. The men enjoy their sex much like they would a good meal or engaging conversation, hooking up without the obvious fanfare. Absent is the precision and sly seduction two dancers employ when dancing an authentic tango, but the steps here are no less sweet to watch. I'd recommend starting at the end and working backwards through the film. Gustavo and Marcello are the over-the-top dessert after a sedate, albeit pleasant, meal.
