Reginas Affairen (2001) Online

This review contains spoilers.

This is a tongue in cheek, softcore version of "The Thomas Crown Affair". But this time, the art thief is a woman. Regina Pierce (C. C. Costigan) likes to steal "art" from museums for fun. She also likes to watch her errand boy and his girlfriend (Amber Newman) have sex. Two cops (some guy and Holly Sampson) start investigating the case. The guy gets romantically involved with C.C., and Holly just kind of hangs around.

Interspersed throughout this story are seven sex scenes. Six are boy/girl and one is girl/girl. Five of the scenes are nothing short of spectacular. The other two were still good. The director, Madison Monroe, really did things right and I wish more directors would film softcore the way he does. For example, during Holly's scene, there's a segment where she's on top. In most softcore, this shot would be held for fifteen seconds, at most. It this movie, the shot is held for a full minute. The camera just lingers on Holly's perfect body while she writhes in the throes of passion. There are a lot of great shots like that in this movie. Holly isn't the only hottie. All the women are beautiful. This is a Surrender title, so the sex scenes are longer than what you'd find in an Image/Playboy release. Unfortunately, that also means that music is the only thing you hear during the scenes as well.

I had low expectations for this movie, but it was really cheap and I figured if I got four decent sex scenes out of it, I'd be happy. I ended up getting a movie that put other softcore titles costing three or four times as much to shame. I can easily recommend this one.

This movie was very hot, but unfortunately I rented the only copy and it was a Blockbuster or Lackluster because they alter their movies from the original. Who is minding the store? Adults should be able to rent movies without censorship going on. The version I saw got pretty steamy, but I would really like to see the director's cut. The lead is very smart and sexy. Reminds me of Jane Mansfield. This movie is definently a rent, just make sure you get the full version.
