Overall I would say that Night School Confidential is a good porno, but this just goes to show that the sum of the parts are not always equal to or greater than the whole. In other words, when you break this movie down it should not be as good of a flick as it is. On my first viewing I was totally turned off by this movie but after I gave it a second look I began to see a good porno here.

The major flaw as I see it is the bad tit jobs of the two main actresses. They are TERRIBLE!!! The main lead of the picture, Raylene, has one of those tit jobs where you can actually see the fucking sack moving around in her chest as she fucks. It ripples and makes her tits look really fake. The other lead, Vixxen, has another problem with bad tit jobs, totally hard and fake looking breasts. When she is on her back, one tit sticks straight up in the air while the other one points directly to 2 o'clock. It's actually quite funny in a sad way. These two flaws really turned me off at first, but I began to look beyond that.

The story goes like this: two college girls give up sex for the weekend to study for finals. Usually a week story is a disaster for a porno, but here it works. Another thing that should have messed up the movie for me was the editing. It seemed like this movie was directed by a homosexual. Way too much time was spent on the guys asses and faces. That pissing me off too, but after a while I began to ignore it.

I think the saving grace of this film, and the reason it works at all, is the quality of the sex. This movie has something that has been lacking from many pornos lately, passion and intensity. There is some good god-damn fucking going on, with power, passion, and heat. It made me happy to see the girls really getting into the sex.

There is also a good orgy scene that I was getting into. You don't see too many orgy scenes anymore, and it was definitely nice to see here. Three couples fuck each other in the living room and turn up the heat. I would have liked to have seen more swapping and sharing of partners, and the editing here is annoying again at times too. In there end though you wind up with a very good orgy scene.

Night School is a positive for the porn industry. I think that if more writer/directors would combine the quality stories that Brad Armstrong and Kris Kramski have given us and combine them with the quality sex that Thomas Paine has presented us here in Night School Confidential then we would begin to return the quality pornos that we had in the 70's and 80's before MTV and complacency ruined the quality of every art form. - Piston Rod

Review Key:

Reviewed on a scale of 1-5 stars. OVERALL, SCRIPT, EDITING - self explanatory. SEX - the amount and quality of. ACTING - can be actually good, or good in a bad way, in the sense that it is so bad it is entertaining. J.O.P. - Jerk-Off Potential. FAST-FORWARDING - the urge to hit that FF button, be it during dialog, rehashed sex-scenes, whatever. The more stars, the less fast-forwarding. EDITING - somewhat related to fast forwarding. Do they show a ball shot for too long? The same angle for an eternity?
