Miles' Rating:

Starring: Director Michael Raven cranks out another arty wet dream, this one a collection of five vignettes built around women who want to be dominated. The subservient vixens include Envy, Kylie Ireland, Charmaine Star, and Kamiko, while April and Sydnee Steele do a soft poolside girl-girl.

Well-shot with Raven's now standard soft lighting. It's a beauty to watch.

Though it has many erotica moments, the film is not nearly as edgy as the box promises. Yes, Charmaine is boned while wearing a dog collar and chain, and there's one solid DP, but the sex is ultimately standard.

Envy, who gets DP, is blistering as she lets two muscle-bound guy flip around at will, and Kylie Ireland and Evan Stone do a stylish, though overwrought, bit outside what looks like a Spanish mansion. He forces her to undress while threateing her with a bullwhip. Women who like romance novels will find the scene stimulating.

But chains and bullwhips aside, it's never as kinky as it promises.

A 7 for Envy and Ireland.
