Carmen Luvana gives her best performance ever as a female version of Al Pacino in this XXX takeoff on the landmark Hollywood gangster flick. As Cuban exile Toni Luvana, she fucks her way into the States, establishes herself in the Miami drug trade, and ruthlessly claws her way to the top.

Carmen’s lesbian encounter with Ava Rose is the standout among eight sex scenes. Director Daniel Dakota stages the violent shoot-outs with utmost efficiency. Marco Banderas has a chilling non-sex cameo as the assassin who calls in Toni’s chips.
