Staying on Top

An oldie but a goodie, this Playboy softcore drama from 2002 is one of the most entertaining examples of the genre, thanks to a surfeit of excellent sex scenes and attractive women. The plot is+ entertaining and does a good job of holding one's attention in between the numerous and well-spaced sex scenes, which for the most part develop fairly naturally and do not feel overtly gratuitous.

The cast is good, too, with Holly Sampson playing the ambitious young blonde. Sampson is a well-known genre fave, as is Holly Hollywood who makes a brief appearance about 2/3s into the film. In the end, it is the tanatalizing and beautiful Sasha Peralto who is the one to swoon over in this film, as she is so incredibly pretty and amazing to look at, and completely natural to boot! The rest of the women pale in comparison to her. Though the cast was obviously chosen for how good they look without any clothes on (which occurs very frequently; Peralto in particular hardly seems to have any clothes on at all in the last 1/3 of the film), their performances aren't bad at all.

Well worth seeing for genre fans, just make sure you get the unrated cut.
