DVD REVIEW:
It’s funny because when I saw this movie in theaters, I took a few Japanese friends t this movie to experience something of American culture and in the end, they loved the movie. It reminded me of Porky’s, the sexual movies of the past that I grew up with. So, I dig the movie and couldn’t wait for it to come out on DVD.
Lo and behold there are two different versions, I wanted the version with the three girls on the front because it was UNRATED. Hmm…what does that mean?
Well, for one, you see more Nadia, you see Biggs doing it to the pie, small scenes that were not shown in the theater.
So, if you like the movie…you’ll like the DVD even more because it’s jammed with special features. The commentaries are hilarious.  Try watching the movie and listen to the guys talk about the movie, it’s like being with friends in the locker room talking shit. The same with the commentary, you find out some really cool tidbits about the film and the people in the film.
There are outtakes, a music video and even hidden areas where you can find trailers to some movies like American Gigolo and more. The audio of the movie is pretty cool! The music is all pumpin’ and of course this is a dialogue movie but the music is a big factor of the movie as well. The video was really crisp and colorful.
So, if you liked the movie, want to relive your perverse youth or want to be entertained, check out the Unrated version of this movie. It’s highly recommended!
