Wow! No wonder this movie is so long: there are so many actors to fit in. And a plot! Not a really great plot, but… it seems that Paul Thomas runs an exclusive Southern California sex club, where members can have all their sexual desires fulfilled. Trouble is, Paul’s up for re-election, and isn’t sure he’s going to win. So, of course, he proposes a change in the rules: let the best sexual athlete prevail! And who does he want to judge the festivities? Well, it just so happens that Traci Lords and Christy Canyon are just down the road, filming one of their X-rated classics.
And here we come to the best part of the movie: Traci and Christy getting it on with the guys and each other. This is the hottest action the tape has to offer, and it doesn’t last long enough. But it’s a steamy sex scene.
There are plenty of swinging couples, girl/girl action, and even an eight-girl, all-girl orgy at the end (at which Traci and Christy are the guests of honor, of course), but the action here just doesn’t always seem to have that oomph.
One of the nicer touches in Sex 5th Avenue is the feeling of Roman decadence during the sexual judging… and some of the costumes the women wear give you and idea why Rome used to be a swinging town (‘til that religious guy moved in).
The veteran actors and actresses do their usual good jobs. Jack Baker, the hip black dude now making a name for himself in X-rateds, delivers an amusing performance as the butler at the club, and he also helped write the script. Let’s also vote this one for nicest box cover of the year.
