Porn DVD Review: 1 Night In Paris
Okay, this is the part where you pretend not to know anything
about this movie and I give you a little background information
on it and I tell you who is in it. But let's face it, most of us
have heard of 1 Night In Paris, so let's dispense with that
charade and get to the action, shall we?
If there's one thing that's patently obvious, it's the fact that
Paris Hilton loves the camera and the spotlight (I know, you're
shocked). But surprisingly enough, I don't think there is any
excessive mugging on her part. Except for in the opening scene
when she and her ex-boyfriend Rick are doing it in the dark.
Understandably, the scene is being captured using infrared
light. The problem is that every time they look directly into
the camera (which is often, believe me), it gives you the
creeps. You know that glint that you see when you look into a
dog's eyes at night? And you thought red-eye was bad. Yeah,
those spook-eyes take some getting used to.
As for the sex, it's totally decent if you're used to amateur
vids. But I have to admit that I'm not. I'm used to background
music and different camera angles every other minute in a porn
DVD. The feel of 1 Night In Paris, as I suppose it is the case
with most amateur videos, lends itself to voyeuristic pleasure.
Since the camera angle doesn't change and there's no inane
background music, it's more close to the sex you and I know,
love, and spy on. It's more realistic and - in Miss Hilton's own
words - that's hot.
And for an amateur vid, the quality is better than you have any
right to expect. So either this Rick guy should have a budding
career as a videographer, or the folks at RedLightDistrict did a
bang-up job producing the movie.
There's this interlude that comes after the first scene where
Paris is primping herself in the bathroom and she and Rick have
this little dialogue. (To me, anytime there's no sex going on in
a skin flick, it's considered an "interlude.") What happens here
is, he says dirty things to her, and deep down I think she's
kind of turned on by them. But, I think she feels she's not
supposed to appreciate that kind of talk. So she puts on this
act like she's offended by what the guy says. Nonetheless, the
"I'm a good, decent girl and don't talk to me like that" routine
starts to wear a little thin after a while. And how smooth is
this guy? He gets her to do all this stuff. On camera.
There's a middle scene in 1 Night In Paris with some extended
coochie-eating. I mean some really looong coochie-eating. Now
I'm sure (if you're holding it down like you're supposed to,
fellas :)) a lot of you guys take just as long when you go down
on your woman. But on camera, it just plays as one long scene,
especially when you can't really see the nitty-gritty. You don't
ever see the oral-genital contact. I mean looking at Paris'
orgasmic expressions are nice, but enough already. (Did I
mention that this scene is really long?)
And that reminds me of something. Between all the hand-wringing
and tsk-tsking on one end, and the subtle winks and rib-nudging
on the other, you would think that this is one really explicit
video. However, up until the ending scene, you could've aired
this before midnight - but after dark, of course - on HBO.
Speaking of that end scene, wow. She goes down like a pro, man.
She's not pornstar spectacular, but she's really good. The proof
is in the pop shot.
I guess the bottom-line is if you're a fan of the ubiquitous Ms.
Hilton, then by all means rent or buy 1 Night In Paris. It just
might be that simple.
