Despite a few fitfully inspired moments, this video is mostly a mess. Director Mark Reynolds assembles fantasies within fantasies as the camera travels in and out of each character's psyche, making a transit from locker room to tearoom to prison to bedroom and back again. The journey is only mildly diverting, and the men along the way are mostly so-so. Reynolds has only one real star in his cast, Jim Pulver, and he exploits the big blonde's talents fairly well. The rest is pretty much a blur.

Example: the prison sequence featuring Robb Quinton as a black guard and Antonio Rosselli and Todd Smith as inmates. There's a mean grittiness in this little vignette that's missing from most squeaky-clean prison fantasies (compare with the antiseptic but effectively glamorous Jeff Stryker vehicle, Powertool.) But Quinton is too small and unintimidating, Rosselli isn't nearly old enough to do Bogart, and Smith gives in way too easy, robbing the scene of any suspense or tension.

Mark Reynolds has a good imagination and an interesting erotic sensibility, but Bigger Than Huge is undercut by a mostly bland cast and strictly average production. Reynolds seems to be striving for the polished gloss of Sterling, Summers or Travis, but even the "glamorous" fantasy sequence is out of step; sex on the hood of a shiny sports car beside a billowing fog machine is pretty tired stuff.
