Consumer DVD Review [Top] This DVD, as the title specifies, is a series of nine episodes celebrating beautiful women in a diverse assortment of circumstances involving water, oil, champagne etc.
Most of the episodes in this collection are wonderful, especially Oil & Water, where two ladies & some oil make love on a waterbed, & Bubbling Over, which involves two very beautiful girls & seemingly endless bottles of champagne. However if Playboys mantra is the celebration of beautiful women, one wonders why they insist on including mute, muscle bound men in their productions. There are no men in their centrefold pages, or indeed in their special editions, so why include them in these DVDs? In this collection, Home Alone & School House Rock, both of which are peppered with beautiful moments, are spoiled by the unnecessary presence of men. Also, the cringe-worthy voiceover to these sketches is that of a mans; all neo-American trite & dire puns. Surely the sensual & elegant voice of a woman would be ideal. Despite these legitimate criticisms this is a magnificent DVD. The girls in this collection, most of whom are Playboy Playmates, are all beautiful. Special mention must go to the delightful Natalia Sokolova, who is the girl on the cover, and, in particular, to Summer Altice. She conforms to none of Playboys clichés & is spirited, natural & a joy to watch. Biography: Kristi Cline [Top]
