scene title:  surprising mom at the office performers:  aaliyah love, cadence lux site:  all girl massage  ◅  fantasy massage (gamma) production credits:  billy visual (dir.), zombie (ed.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: cadence lux, r: aaliyah love because april happens to have five mondays in it, we get five allgirlmassage scenes this month. the site is now in its tenth decade of operation (sixth under gamma) and has recently started to push slightly against the very limited format of the premise. only two of the scenes this month have been set in a massage parlor, and only one of those featured a standard masseuse/client setup. despite featuring the same set materials as the kenzie taylor/veronica valentine scene, this one doesn't seem to be set in a massage parlor, but some other place of business. details, as usual, are sketchy. aaliyah love is stressed out at work, so when her stepdaughter cadence lux (you can tell she's supposed ...

scene title:  curious cousin performers:  alexis fawx, christie stevens site:  girls try anal  ◅  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  stills by alan (dir.), zombie (ed.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: christie stevens, r: alexis fawx sigh. it's hard to keep trying to find diplomatic ways to couch my increasing exhaustion with the girlsway formula. even at the height of my interest in the site, i never watched every scene in a month, and doing so now just drives home how banal and slipshod the basic structure of a girlsway scene is. introduce characters (throw in a gratuitous shot of the girlsway website if possible), have them to chatter about nothing for about three minutes, have one of them bring up sex to the other's shock and possible intrigue, establish a backstory of sexual disappointment/inexperience, get actually sexual, get the surprised reaction shot that can be plastered on the scene's branding and gifed for tube-site adve...

scene title:  wrong number, right girl performers:  kali roses, sophia lux site:  webyoung  ◅  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  stills by alan (dir.),  fistopher nolan (scr.), zombie (ed.) trailer l: sophia lux, r: kali roses i'd been wondering, since i disliked sophia lux's performance so much in her team skeet scene earlier this month, how she would strike me on the industry-leading girl/girl website. i'm happy to report that with a sympathetic premise, a capable scene partner, competent lighting and photography, and any production values at all she's quite a good performer. her bluntness and tough-girl affect bring genuine merit to a scene where kali roses was expecting to hook up with a boy but misread who she had been texting with, and girlsway's generally less sociopathic approach to their pairings means that her hands-off seduction of kali is surprisingly gentle and respectful. the scene still barely hangs together, becaus...

scene title:  maid for each other: my m.a.i.d.d. performers:  angela white, jill kassidy site:  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  casey calvert & eli cross (dir.), midnight (scr.) trailer l: jill kassidy, r: angela white well, this was a weird one. it's not an unusual scene in the girlsway canon: the site has frequently featured high-concept ridiculousness, from lesbian vampires to accidental aphrodisiac spells to visiting aliens. but it's the first time one of those silly high concepts has been attempted under a director other than stills by alan, and as little as i think of him as a person, he was one of the few who could occasionally pull off that kind of nonsense. i don't think casey and eli can. at least not yet. jill kassidy is perfectly cast as the "cleaning droid" (she does great deadpan) and angela white is of course terrific as the rather nervous, sexually unfulfilled homeowner; but once the agreeable comedy of the opening s...

scene title:  the heist performers:  haley reed, natalie mars site:  transfixed (gamma) production credits:  bree mills (dir, scr.), angelo poirier (ed.) trailer l: natalie mars, r: haley reed the last transfixed scene of the month appears here, which feels like an invitation to wax philosophic about the series and its place in girl/girl porn. i've already given those thoughts, though, scattered throughout my reviews of trans scenes. i'll just reiterate again for the record that i am including scenes between trans women and cis women (and would include scenes between trans women and trans women if i knew of any released during april) here because trans women are women, and the categories that the porn industry uses to silo off differences are crudely outdated and need changing. in the minuscule way i am able to contribute to that change, i'm attempting to. this is the third time natalie mars has appeared this month, and because it's transfixed ...

scene title:  sugar mommy performers:  franny, sarah cute site:  old young lesbian love  ◅  21sextreme (gamma) production credits:  none listed trailer l: franny, r: sarah cute boy, this was just an interminable slog. i was fine with the last oldyounglesbianlove scene. i mean i didn't love it or give it a high score, but i didn't actively despise it. this one i did. comparing the two screengrabs for each scene gives an indication as to why: katana and bibi pink were shot in muted tones with plenty of rich dark colors, while franny and sarah cute are shot in blown-out light with tacky, jaundiced coloring. the central performances were fine, but hardly distinctive enough to overcome the sickly visuals; sarah cute's voiceover intro (her english is quite good, among the best continental european performers' i've heard) was entirely pro forma, and i found the food play at the beginning revolting. (yeah, that's an entirely personal bugbear, and if ...

scene title:  milf book club massage performers:  ryan keely, aiden starr, crystal rush site:  all girl massage  ◅  fantasy massage (gamma) production credits:  billy visual (dir.), fistopher nolan (scr.), willy balsh (ed.) trailer l: crystal rush, c: aiden starr, r: ryan keely it's probably perverse of me to give this scene my highest rating of any allgirlmassage scene so far this month when it was undoubtedly the most widely criticized and disliked by the network members who rated and commented on it. (to be fair, it is also the most liked scene of the month; but the like-to-dislike ratio is lower than on any scene not featuring a person of color.) the polarizing element is, as you might guess from the screengrab, aiden starr, whose porn career has been long and distinguished but who has transitioned into mostly behind-the-camera positions as the years have gone on and her waistline has thickened. i'm all for a greater diversity of body ...

scene title:  we like girls: cadence and serena performers:  cadence lux, serena blair site:  we like girls ◅ girlsway (gamma) production credits:  bree mills (dir.), clit eastwood (ed.) trailer l: serena blair, r: cadence lux this is the fifth entry in the we like girls project, one of several original series bree mills is producing for adult time, gamma's attempt to create a netflix-style porn destination with high-quality content, a vast licensed back catalog, and entries in every major porn genre. because it's girl/girl it falls under the girlsway umbrella, but traditional girlsway fans are mostly turning their noses up at it: they want the shitty stories and lame acting, they don't want to see the girls talk to the camera or see behind the scenes as the camera crew and makeup artists get them ready. they want fantasy, and they think that seeing the director interact with the performers kills the fantasy. so what do i think? i think it's ...

scene title:  making mommy squirm performers:  anya olsen, dava foxx site:  mommy's girl  ◅  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  craven moorehead (dir.), stratman90 (scr.) trailer l: dava foxx, r: anya olsen it's possible i'm just too jaded and grumpy to appreciate anything anymore, or maybe we've hit a singularly uninspired stretch of the month's releases. either way, this is the least engaging mommy's girl scene so far this month, and mommy's girl is for my money consistently the least engaging girlsway brand. some of that is due to the performances. anya olsen, who i don't recall ever having encountered before, is certainly having fun with her role, sliding from being shocked over finding out that her stepmother watches stepmom-stepdaughter porn to teasing her into sexual contact with campy glee; but once dava relents they have nowhere else to push the characters and just fall back on what the girlsway superfans call "mommy ta...

scene title:  left at the altar performers:  tiffany watson, kira noir site:  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  stills by alan (dir.),  zombie (ed.), metalhead42 (scr.) trailer l: kira noir, r: tiffany watson girlsway is the most prolific site among those i review here, so it's probably inevitable that there's a certain bored familiarity in my approach to their scenes. i know what to expect, especially from the last several scenes shot by stills by alan toward the end of 2018, and they're almost never going to surprise me anymore. that's even more true with this scene, the second kira noir/tiffany watson pairing to run on girlsway in early 2019, which is unusual enough to be worthy of comment. their first pairing, "getting hot in here," was released after both scenes had been shot, so this isn't in response to fan demand. presumably it was about availability on the day; either way, they work well enough together that you could imagine...

scene title:  maid for each other: nasty cleaning crew performers:  kenzie reeves, alina lopez, mackenzie moss site:  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  casey calvert & eli cross (dir.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: alina lopez, c: kenzie reeves, r: mackenzie moss newcomer mackenzie moss has her second girl/girl scene and girlsway debut here. in a scene with such strong performers as sex goblin kenzie reeves and natural domme alina lopez, there's a possibility that she could be overshadowed, but she holds her own without ever taking charge of the scene the way alina and kenzie trade off doing. the premise, that the three of them are a maid cleaning service hired by london river (in the same house where she and alina cavorted in "fam fiction," also directed by casey and eli, an indication of just crowded the girlsway shooting schedule is), is thin and unconvincing; london as the demanding, bitchy homeowner gives the most believable p...

scene title:  a delicate encounter performers:  ali novak, april snow site:  lez cuties  ◅  21sextury (gamma) production credits:  none listed trailer l: ali novak, r: april snow 21sextury's acquisition by gamma last year is starting to show. i couldn't say for sure that this is the first scene lezcuties has put out that features los angeles-based performers rather than the prague-based performers they normally use, but while the visuals and themes are very much in line with the brand's history, the performances are undeniably american (demonstrative, loud, aggressive), even with dialogue kept to the usual 21sextury minimum. lezcuties has always been a toy-centric brand (like many european girl/girl sites), and so the use of a dildo, vibrator, and strapon is unsurprising. (it's a little surprising to recognize the same strapon that girlsway has long used. hmm, has stills by alan returned to the gamma fold after all, in a site that doesn't ...

scene title:  through the mirror performers:  maya kendrick, aspen brooks site:  transfixed (gamma) production credits:  bree mills (dir., scr.), woody all-in (ed.) trailer l: aspen brooks, r: maya kendrick when i do my data analysis at the end of the month, it may well be the case that the site with the highest average score will be transfixed. this shouldn't be taken as an indication that i prefer trans girl/girl scenes to regular cis girl/girl scenes (what turns me on is not germane to these reviews), but a recognition that transfixed in particular puts much more effort into concept, production value and making every episode uniquely visually interesting than just about any other girl/girl porn site. this scene is the most riveting of the three so far this month, with an eight-minute short-film introduction that could as easily lead into an episode of horror, fantasy, or romance as into a porn scene. maya kendrick goes shopping at a yard sal...

scene title:  mother's playdate performers:  dana vespoli, katie morgan site:  moms on moms  ◅  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  stills by alan (dir.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: katie morgan, r: dana vespoli it turns out the old dog of girlsway does still have some new tricks up its sleeve. moms on moms, the spinoff brand of mommy's girl that has been responsible for a tempest in a teapot among the girlsway members (who screamed bloody murder when the monthly mommy's girl count was reduced by one to make room for it) is easy for someone like me who doesn't share the pseudo-incest fetish to dismiss as more of the same, just another a work-relief program for milf-category performers: but at least this pairing, the second ever, brought in a ringer who hasn't been on mommy's girl a thousand times already, and so elevated the standard. dana vespoli seems more engaged and even to be having more fun than i've seen her in quite some t...

scene title:  you're the boss performers:  kenzie taylor, veronica valentine site:  all girl massage  ◅  fantasy massage (gamma) production credits:  billy visual (dir.), willy balsh (ed.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: veronica valentine, r: kenzie taylor the massage genre of porn is so inherently limited, and the various methods by which sex is introduced into the scenario so few and so frequently repeated, that even the slightest variations on the theme can be a relief to someone who consumes it frequently. here, kenzie taylor as the masseuse offering her new receptionist veronica valentine a massage in order to practice the "new technique" that's very effective in europe is perhaps the most common setup: the "new technique" is, of course, focused on the vulva. it's the transition from the masseuse getting the client off to the client returning the favor is the part that's always tricky: the most usual solution is to just play ...

scene title:  sapphic curse of the crystal skull performers:  adriana chechik, kissa sins site:  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  stills by alan (dir.) trailer l: adriana chechik, r: kissa sins i have complained so much about stills by alan's day-to-day girlsway work that i may have given the impression that i don't think he could be a competent director. but that's not true; it's just that on the usual schedule he maintained of two scenes per day over the past couple of years, he took a lot of shortcuts and attempted very little quality control. when he was working on more ambitious projects, like the features that first made girlsway a name to be reckoned with in the industry, but which had more recently slowed to a trickle as the engagement metrics failed to support them, he could produce work at least as good as the average shitty tv show. here, he uses a combination of drone footage over desert landscapes, shots of his stars hiking in t...

scene title:  mastur-baiting mommy performers:  emma hix, dee williams site:  mommy's girl  ◅  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  craven moorehead (dir.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: emma hix, r: dee williams the seventh girlsway scene i've reviewed for the month of april, and the third director to be called in as a replacement for stills by alan. craven moorehead has been a gamma contractor for a while now: he's filled in when alan couldn't maintain the onerous schedule throughout 2018, and he's the main director for pure taboo. not that this is shot anything like a pure taboo scene: it's still the pretty standard girlsway setup, but with a better eye and a cooler, less oversaturated color palette. dee in particular is highly flushed by the end of the scene, but rather than glowing bright red, as she would have under stills by alan's camera, she's just a delicate rose color. the subdued colors are suited to a scene that take...

scene title:  black sheep cousins performers:  kendra spade, eliza ibarra site:  webyoung  ◅  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  stills by alan (dir.), zombie (ed.) ossienelson4 (scr.) trailer l: kendra spade, r: eliza ibarra if, as i hope i've made clear i wish to be the case, these last few scenes directed by stills by alan late last year are the last i ever see from him, then it's appropriate that at least one of them show off how terribly unimaginative he could be as a director. the blandness, stupidity, and tediousness of this scene should be remembered as his hallmarks, just as much as the novelty of his work as it first appeared back in 2015-2016 (when bree mills was still much more directly involved in girlsway). that blandness, stupidity, and tediousness can only partly be laid at the feet of the performers, both of whom i've seen better work from but who did not appear to be trying terribly hard on the day of this shoot. they'...

scene title:  maid for each other: office cleaning performers:  scarlett sage, dee williams site:  girlsway (gamma) production credits:  casey calvert & eli cross (dir.), fistopher nolan (scr.) trailer l: dee williams, r: scarlett sage the second casey calvert/eli cross directorial effort to be posted by girlsway works a lot better for me than the first. part of that is that it's an office setting, and the relationship is employer/employee rather than stepmother/stepdaughter, part of it is that the script is better: more natural and amusing and featuring a seduction rather than just "let's fuck." and finally part of it is also that the directing is better and more fluid. not that it's terribly distinct from the girlsway mold established by stills by alan. the colors are oversaturated, especially in the reds (a great way to highlight a pale woman's sexual flush, but ugly and cheap otherwise), the establishing shots are shoddy (you don'...
