Janine Loves Jenna

Okay, clearly other viewers had great expectations of this. Jenna's then-husband probably had a lot to do with the expectations... way overblown based on his ego.

Dude, it's porn, not art. Alright, 'nuff said about that douche.

Michael Ninn did most of this with his artsy porn (read: special effects/green screens and story lines) in the 90's. Private makes better artsy product, too.

The odd part of the film is the scene in which Jenna is supposed to be suffering through the trials of Hell, yet, in the opener, she is the one dominating Janine.

Also, Katja Kassin should have been allowed to "mingle" some more with Janine and Jenna in the café, before moving on with her guy/girl scene.

The scene in the rain is a good one, with Janine being the more watchable of the two. The camera seemed to reflect that as well, giving her more face time than Jenna.

Jenna gets it back in the devil's chamber, and then makes an awkward attempt to escape that crashes the whole movie back down to it's most amateur level of "non-acting"... I actually laughed out loud, because I thought they were trying to be funny, not sincere.

The lesbian scene is hot (Jenna and Janine) but a little lacking, and I'm not a fan of lit candle insertions. There are far more erotic practices that can be used in porn scenes such as this.

Overall, I enjoyed the movie, if not just to see Jenna before she totally pigged out with the plastic surgery, and of course, to see Janine working with men.

Worth renting, maybe owning in a few months when the price comes down.

Now, it's the turn of the Gramma of all porn-stars : Janine ! Since i'm watching porn in my silver age, the one of night trips that started with Dyanna Lauren (# to come), Janine has been there as she was at the start of this decade and we can guess she would be still there today if her personal life would have been more calm. If I'm not really into her, i admit she has some style and i'm not talking about her tattoos ! In a way, she reminds a bit about Madonna (# to come) but she's even wilder (yes, it can happen…).

Unfortunately, she is not really the focus of this movie as she is only there to put the spotlight on Jenna (again, a # to come) and in addition, the movie is just not arousing : as sex and sensuality can be so powerful and luminous, I never understand why people uses their energy to get them down, to choke them into the dark side : so, here, there's blood, death, blasphemes, monstrosities, vices and it's filthy, evil. In addition, Jenna's ex who directed the movie is clearly overwhelmed : as he tries to put a thousand things in the frame (special effects, weird angle, dynamic editing, stunning wardrobe), he forgets that he's doing a porn movie ! The only interest of this movie is that it had been prophetic as indeed Sterling gives Jenna a real trial when they split !
