Vendetta (2017) Review

Vendetta (2017) DVD and Poster 
Today we are going modern. We are going to venture into something that I don’t do often, and that’s going forward into something newer. With that in mind, let’s venture to the year 2017, April 2017 when a 95 minute movie from Wicked Pictures came out and started to win some serious awards. This is very much a high budget production, but that doesn’t mean that it has the film grain that I love. It is filmed in HD, but it’s still very much soap opera or Netflix style camera work. It is NOT like what you would see on the big screen, even from the golden era of porn. That doesn’t make it bad, it’s just a fact that I saw from the opening sequencing. It’s on par with a Mexican soap opera at times. This movie is called "Vendetta", and it is directed by Stormy Daniels, and is released by Wicked Pictures. The stars of this movie includes Asa Akira, Kleio Valentien, Stormy Daniels, Kenzie Taylor, Lucas Frost, Brendon Miller, Marcus London, Kimber Woods, and Michael Vegas. It’s not a long movie, but it has a plot that is going to be worth checking out for some, and for others, it will be another movie that they skip to the sex scenes, because afterall this is a porno, right?

Before jumping into the viewing, I want to look at the synopsis. In this movie, Celeste, our main character is left with a rich husband that is stuck in a wheelchair. She needs to find pleasure, and he can’t give it to her. The husband gets mad, and hires a private eye, and that creates some serious problems, as the woman is actually someone much more dangerous than he ever knew, hence the name, Vendetta. Fun, right?

Let’s get into the movie, roll it!

The opening scene shows Stormy Daniels riding a horse, and it’s legit her. She can ride, and that’s really cool. Daniels is a tall blonde, and she rides this horse with care, the camera editing enjoying her movements. She’s busty here, but she’s fully covered up, as she rides through the ups and downs of riding for sport. We are introduced to Celeste and her man, and we see how terrible the acting truly is. Stormy Daniels comes down the stairs, her husband just hanging out, and that’s it. She says she is going to leave, and decides to just take off. The husband calls someone and says she’s doing it again. She jumps in a car with Asa Akira, and away we go.

We then see the women driving to an undisclosed location, and then we see them pair up and find another woman and go into a bathroom. There’s red lighting here, and a sign that says that it’s a bathroom, as it says “toilet”, in case you’re not smart enough to pick up on it. The three women are at a club or somewhere, because the bathroom is lit with a red light, red light district type of thing. We see the tall blonde in Stormy Daniels, and we see Asa Akira a beautiful Asian woman, and Kleio Valentien a tall, tattooed blonde, and the three start to kiss and giggle, and then get into sex. The trio go through some standard lesbian sex, and then bring out toys for the camera to see. The camera work and editing here is ok, but the techno beat, the red lighting, and the constant cuts hurt my head. The moaning, and the process works well, and the women are beautiful, including wearing heels, tight dresses, and more. However, there’s a lack of something, that “it” factor, although the women use toys, go through DP with them, the confines of a bathroom doesn’t lend itself well enough for this scene to really get off the ground.

After the club scene, we then see Stormy Daniels and Asa Akira talking about random things. They try to act, and it’s not terrible. The makeup job on these women is really good. The camera editing is good, the conversation is bland, and we see the women supposedly at a restaurant, but it’s not that great at all. The set design leaves something to be desired. Meanwhile, as the women leave, there’s a random voyeur taking shots of them, most likely the private eye. The husband here is the same guy from the movie “Stupid Cupid” by the way! It’s Kyle Stone!

We are in a backyard now. We see Celeste and her husband just talking and having breakfast. The two argue about whether she has been faithful or not, and that makes her storm off. He starts to dial his phone and call a detective and say that he doesn’t know what to do. He then calls his lawyer. The lawyer then turns around after talking on the phone, and we get into a new sex scene.

The lawyer here is played by Kenzie Taylor. SHe’s a tall blonde with large breasts, tattoos, and a nice makeup job. She has large fake breasts, and invites Lucas Frost to kiss her and start to get through the motions of sex. Taylor takes her top off, as Lucas pulls her skirt down and underwear, before starting to give her oral. She’s pale, has a French tip manicure, and is quite sexy here. She has a full pubic mound of hair, and Lucas begins to use his fingers and tongue to get through the intiial warming of Taylor’s vagina, including making her cum at the 21 minute mark. She moans, and he continues, and this is one hell of a start to a scene. As far as looks are concerned, Taylor looks like a high end escort, and performs with a certain magnitude that you’d expect from them. Lucas Forst is not a big guy, he doesn’t have a giant penis, and is shaved completely. We get into deep throat here, and while it’s adequate, he seems to be in mechanical mode for the most part. A condom gets put on, and the sex begins, with that robotic push at first, but after a blow job that wasn’t half bad, it’s a welcome point of interest. It almost looks like there are two condoms being put on here, but it’s something that I can’t really qualify as a truth. It just looks that way to me. Taylor moans a great deal, keeps her garters on, and her stockings, as the positions shift from the desk, moving forward. The camera stays close enough, and the movie continues to the eventual cum shot in the face, and that’s that, nothing too complex, nothing too exciting, but rather just status quo for adult cinema in the modern era. I did appreciate the set being more than a warehouse and the dialogue moving the story along, but the rest was somewhat ordinary, for lack of a better term.

We move forward with a fade to black. Stormy Daniels and Asa Akira are having lunch on a balcony overlooking the Hollywood Hills. This is a house that is supposed to be a restaurant, but it really is just a home. Stormy Daniels goes to make a call in the bathroom, and she looks in the mirror, her husband calling her to find out where she is. She returns to the lunch table, and talks to Asa Akira. The two go through some boring dialogue about how if you cheat a lot you’ll get caught. They talk about how Celeste’s husband is dealing with being in a wheel chair and that things are tough.

We fade to black again, and then see Stormy Daniels in a full horse riding suit with Brendon Miller. Miller is a tattooed, hard looking guy, and Stormy looks great in a riding outfit. The two start to kiss a bit, and undress, showing off Stormy’s large breasts, and full figure. She’s blonde, she’s got a large frame, and she is definitely a hot blonde. The clothes come off and Stormy gets eaten out by Brendon Miller, with slow strokes of the tongue, as there is no music playing, and you get that high definition modern porn look into what is going on. Stormy gets on top for sex, and Miller has a condom on, she moves in and out with ease, doing a lot of the work up and down, and around, the two having a bit more than mechanical sex, with some kissing to boot. The two go through various positions, and end up doing well here, with Stormy making it seem like she’s really into the sex, including anal at one point. The anal option isn’t bad, but condoms are still in play. Eventually we get a cum shot into Stormy’s mouth, and she sucks Miller offer after the fact, which is always a fun thing to watch and experience. Stormy here is looking more like Janine because of a tattoo that she has around her pubic area and waist, alongside tattoos in other areas. She definitely is an alt girl here, and the sex, while interesting at times, is formulaic with Stormy just playing the role and not truly showcasing the passion that you’d want from a real sexual experience. Sure, it works, sure Miller cums, but he’s not a big guy, and the two work well enough to make the movie work well moving forward, but it’s just lacking something, and I think it’s passion. There are moments where it is really good, don’t get me wrong, and if you’re a fan of Stormy Daniels, you’ll like how she moves her body for this scene, as there are some great points.

After we see this, we go to a bar. At this bar we see Stormy and Asa talking about how someone’s trying to kill Stormy’s character. She says, that her husband has hired someone to kill her, and so here we go, the plot thickens a bit. Asa Akira goes over to the hitman that is sitting at the corner of the bar. Akira starts talking about how she thinks he’s Michael, and said that if he was Michael she was going to have sex with him.

Outside, we see Stormy and a random dude, and unfortunately her car has broken down. She agrees to go with him to a hotel. Meanwhile on the other side of the parking lot is Asa Akira, and she is in all black, talking to the hitman, and making out on a car.

Asa Akira is an asian woman with black hair, slim, and has large breasts, she gets her breasts exposed during the make out session, then Marcus London takes his pants off as she crouches down. It’s dark, but you can see he gets hard right away, and Akira starts to suck him off, going as hard as she can as he groans a bit. Akira continues to do this as the camera gets close and then pulls away, showing off Akira’s skill here. She’s quite enthusiastic overall, and really puts on a show until London cums in her face, and ends the scene. I guess he wasn’t the hitman after all?

The scene resets and we see Celeste, played by Stormy and the real hitman get behind closed doors. There’s a slight fade to black, before we see the guy poor some Woodford Reserve or Gentleman Jack, and the two start to drink. They sip whiskey, neat, and just look to be getting ready to get a little more comfortable. A donnybrook breaks out, and the two start to fight a bit, and there’s some sexual tension, before Celeste gets the better of the dude, and she chokes him out with a painting. After some time, she gives the guy a triangle choke hold before grabbing a vase and shattering it over his head. She knocks the dude out, and leaves him alone in the room.

The scene fades to black and we are taken to another room, this time it’s daylight and there are two people making out.

Kimber Woods has small breasts, black hair, and looks to be having a lot of fun with Michael Vegas. Vegas takes her top off and then starts to use his hands to please her, before taking off her pants and giving her more pleasure. The set here looks like a trailer park, with a green couch, and a random setup. This is an odd turn, but the sex is actually better than the rest of the movie. Vegas has a condom on, and he really goes far with Kimber, including nearly making her squirt at one point. This is the best sex scene in the movie, and by the time Vegas cums, it’s definitely warranted after the work he puts in to make Kimber moan and nearly scream at some point. Kimber is a nice girl, pretty, and wears heels for this, so if you’re a fan, you’ll love the sexual chemistry that Vegas and Kimber bring out together.

After the sex, we see Stormy Daniels show up, and pay off a woman to help with killing off her husband, at least that’s what we seem to be getting here. The scene ends and we see Celeste pointing a gun in the face of her husband. This last scene goes forward with finishing off the plot, and it involves a great deal of dialogue. After some time explaining, Celeste shoots her husband and away we go, the end.

I give “Vendetta” a 3 out of 5.

While I appreciate the cinematography, and attempts at better acting, I can only say that the sex isn’t that good. Stormy Daniels can write, act, ride horses, and make a good modern porno. It’s modern, it has a story that’s somewhat compelling, and it features enough sexual gusto to make it somewhat entertaining for a pornographic movie. Daniels is beautiful, I like her voice too, but in terms of sex, I can’t really recommend this one more than 3 out of 5. There are two stand out scenes in terms of sex, and the rest is story and somewhat mechanical. However, if you’re a fan of Stormy Daniels, and you like to see her in action, then you’ll want to check this one out for sure, it’s modern and it’s high budget.
