Light-hearted (if overly obvious) Jacky opus
Jacky St. James has settled in at her new label Sweet Sinner with confidence now, cranking out some follow-ups in SS's best-known series (like the recent release "My Girlfriend's Mother 13") or some one-offs like this slight title.
In the BTS short subject on the DVD co-star Mercedes Carrera mentions the title as "Women on Top", perhaps an initial reference by punning Jacky to the all-time classic British movie about getting ahead "Room at the Top". Story is narrated by pretty star Gia Paige, herself an effective young entrant in the Adult lookalike contest for mainstream British star Emily Blunt.
Story is set decades ago (apparently in Jacky's misguided attempt to pretend that sexism in the workplace is no longer prevalent - the opposite of prescience, given the rise of the MeToo movement since this DVD was released one year ago in July 2017). Gia laments the fact that her male co-workers at John Strong's realty agency get all the good leads. Her supervisor Logan Pierce is openly sexist about the situation, and so Gia plots with co-worker, the sexy receptionist played by Mercedes, to get back at the chauvinist pigs.
Action is comical and sexy but way too lightweight to command total immersion by the viewer (at least yours truly). Jacky stacks the deck in favor of the femmes so obviously that the show is robbed of both drama and suspense.
We're left with hot sex scenes, particularly from the Brit Porn husband and wife team of Ryan Ryder and Jasmine Jae, quite comfortable in having JJ dominate him to such an extreme that I half-expected some pegging, which surely would have been a first for the Couples Romance label Sweet Sinner.
Chad White, with a very bad haircut tries his hand at slapstick, almost as unsuccessfully as one of his worst features to date, B. Skow's execrable "The Switch". With Gia as secret voyeuse, Chad humps petite teen Chloe Couture, and gets caught literally with his pants down, losing his job. That together with Ryder messing up elevates Gia and Mercedes up the corporate ladder en route to a happy (for the ladies) ending.
Dumbed way down compared to the best of St. James's work, this minor opus indicates we won't be getting a feminist sex farce on the level of Almodovar's "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" from her any time soon.
