Falcon has gotten into the bad habit of stiffing their faithful viewers with straight trade who do nothing but flex and jerk off. Here, it’s gayforpay model Johnny Castle. And like one of his standoffish porn predecessors, Ari Bond, Castle does nothing more than a half-hearted strip tease in the film’s opener. Staring absent-mindedly off camera, one imagines him totaling his fee while he goes through the motions. Enough, already. The balance of the film is a series of peaks and valleys, A-list models often paired with the wrong partner. It would have been thrilling to see Eddie Stone get the sass knocked out of him by Chad Hunt. Instead, Hunt is stuck with a too-tan Roman Heart while Stone makes do with yet another piece of straight trade, Jason Adonis. Adding insult to injury, DVD bonus content, which was really spectacular in ‘05 and ‘06, has once again slumped to nothing but warmed-over trailers.

RETAILING: With the name ‘Falcon’ on the label, brisk sales are all but guaranteed.
