Boy Boy Montreal (Reality Documentary Series)

As per the official synopsis of this show "Through the confessions of six professional pornstars, this humorous documentary series offers viewers an insider's look into Montreal's gay porn industry, a major hub on the international scene. Meet the actors, cult filmmakers, specialists in sex health, and model's entourage revealing all the secrets about the pornstar life." Spread over 10 episodes of about 25 minutes each, I wasn't vey sure what I am getting into, but I have to say that the candid confessions and the 6 chosen pornstars ended up being a lot more fun and informative to watch than cringe as I had thought going into watching this whole show.

Meet Trent, Skyy, Guillaume, Edward, Teddy and River - the six pornstars of "Boy Boy Montreal." River and Cory Kane are doing a photoshoot together. Guillaume welcomes actors Teddy and Pierre Fitch for a spa at home. We see the steps that are taken and the business challenges when production companies want hire a new model. Th behind the scenes look at scripting to editing of these porn films, how often they get tested for STIs, preventions they take and how important it is for them to be careful. Something interesting happens when we enter the world of fake cum, penile injections and other magic tricks behind pornography. Skyy, Teddy and River visit a cosmetic surgery clinic in order to get an anal laser bleaching. Pornstars Jason Vario and Ethan Chase get a penile injection. Topics like gay for pay, or straight porn actors is discussed along with the usual topic of how easy or hard it for these porn stars to maintain a relationship in real life with their partners and what they think of the choice of vocation. The actor also talk about the continuous evolution of porn from the VHS days to production studios to the current trend of only fans or clips. They also talk about how video games within porn and AI can probably disrupt the industry.

As I mentioned, I wasn't sure if I am going to get into this reality show cum documentary style show, but thanks to the six individuals chosen, it was a treat to watch. All of these actors were a delight and I will admit that I was the first one to be pleasantly surprised because I did not expect that. They were funny, charming, they knew hat they were talking, handsome, they didn't shy from talking of all sorts of issues within gay porn right from body type to penis size to drugs to steroids, to shelf life of actors to relationships and everything else. We also see these people meet other people involved in the industry directly or indirectly and get their perspective. There are sessions with sexual health expert, a psychologist and the funniest when they answer to some very personal yet awkward questions. I didn't expect that all these actors would be so engaging. Of course, icing on the cake is to see some film shoots also happening. Hat surprised me most was the whole obsession around penis size, tricks that production companies to do for fake cu, the whole injecting penis was scary by the way. Amongst a lot of documentaries and shows centered around gay porn industry, I have to say that this was the most fun to watch, engaging, charming yet also very informative. The no hold barred kind of interaction an interviews and discussions was very refreshing and almost no one shed away from talking and discussing all uncomfortable topics. I definitely applaud the makers of the show. (6/10)

The Shortest Distance is Round 3: Fallen Flowers

Continuing with the weird trilogy of "The Shortest Distance", I am so glad that finally I am done with part 3 and won't have to deal with this again in future. Thankfully, as of now the makers have not announced any further parts; which will save all of us on this earth from the embarrassment of watching this in near future. After the first 10 minutes are used in sort of recapping bits of first two parts, the story moves forward. Haruto is now starting to have feelings for Ruka, the mysterious pole dancer from second part. In a fit of rage, Ruka ends up killing the goat man and to save him and Haruto, Shibahara asks them to go underground. Meanwhile Shibahara continues the search for Seiya (the guy who had cut off Haruto's penis). It turns out Seiya is now also taking care of the original club owner from part 1. Both of them were released after they had informed Shibahara of Aoyama's secret location. Shibahara tortures Seiya's boyfriend leading to Seiya killin

One Summer Night (Korean)

I really wanted to like this film but for non native speakers, these movie leaves a lot to be understood and the way scenes were unfolding in front of me, I wasn't sure many times what was really going on. The story had potential button getting any back story on any of the characters limited my ability to empathize with any of these actors. Film starts with two North Korea military guys Yong Joon and Jae Sung having sex and they are caught red handed and they run. Three years later we see Yong Joon in Seoul leading a very mundane and poor life. He has a boyfriend Tae-Kyu, who is a weird guy. He is carefree, doesn't do any work and is completely emotional and financially dependent on Young Joon. In fact, even Yong Joon will go to any lengths to protect him , fend for him and taking care of him to the extent of even taking up prostitution. Suddenly one day Jae Sung appears in their life again. His motivation is not clear but it is obvious he wants Yong Joon back in his life, who

Ultimate masturbation: Shigoki no yama (Japanese) [The Ultimate Masturbation]

I would never know what was the point behind making this film. Was it supposed to be a comedy, cos it wasn't. It wasn't even porn. It was just a silly attempt at making something absolutely senseless and ridiculous. The story, as well as direction is equally shoddy. You could laugh for having seen something so bad, but I wouldn't call that comedy. An old man runs a camp about gay masturbation. The explanation given is that gays masturbate for pleasure unlike straight men, for whom the act is seen as shame or because they can't find a woman. One day a straight man shows up and wants to join the camp for his thesis. After discussion, he is allowed in. Rules include that you can masturbate together, you can masturbate one another, but there is no fellatio or anal sex. Some students of course breaks rule. The teacher then talks about 2 forms of masturbation which gives ultimate pleasure. He shows one without touching and then refuses to talk of the other. Somehow suddenly,
