Why am I reviewing this movie now? Well, I've never seen it before. Flashpoint was filmed in 1997 and debuted on VHS in 1998 (I think); the eagerly-anticipated DVD followed in 1999. After enjoying Loaded (featuring Jesse Jane) recently, I thought I'd give a shot at one of the most celebrated adult feature films in the last five or so years.

Without a doubt, Jenna Jameson is the biggest adult film star since the late Nineties, but to be honest, I can't count myself amongst the Jenna worshippers. I don't know why this is; she's actually a decent actress and her sex scenes are usually very high caliber.

Flashpoint's cast reads like a Who's Who in porn for the late Nineties. We've seen all of them in scenes after this, but watching this 6+ years after it was shot makes them look especially nice; it's like watching Faye Dunaway in Chinatown. Jenna's probably at the pinnacle of her adult career in Flashpoint.

The Story

Tragedy strikes as a firefighter gets killed in the line of duty. Among the many who mourn his passing at his funeral service is megababe Jenna Jameson, a fellow firefighter. After the ceremony, she is confronted by her ex, but before things get nasty, Mickey G steps in.

Back at the station house, Mickey G consoles his big titted babe with his dick. Filmed in 1997, Jenna is looking mighty fine. He pumps her pussy in a few positions, and then unloads across her Walmart tits. (Okay, they're not Walmart, but they're off-the-rack LA/OC tits. God bless Beverly Hills plastic surgeons!)

The lieutenant (Steve Drake) is restless because of his colleague's death. Or is it because Jill Kelly and Johnni Black are awake and playing cards without him? Jill is actually halfway decent in delivering her lines, but I have never seen Johnni Black take back seat to another woman. Drake focuses almost all of his attention on Johnni who eventually gets plugged in her ass and takes his load all over her butt.

A possible drowning rouses the firefighters; most of them race off to the rescue, leaving Mickey G. and Jill back at the station. Jill is worried that he's working injured, using painkillers to combat chronic pain, but he brushes her off. Meanwhile, the rescue team revives the bikini-clad drowning victim (Sydnee?); Jenna is troubled by the action as it unwakens memories she's rather keep forgotten.

Back at the station, Mickey's horse pills are resulting in some strange dreams. Dreams that include most of the fire brigade participating in any orgy on the hook-and-ladder. This is all fine and well except for the dreaded "feature-film slow-motion." Argghhh.

Not soon enough, we're back in the action. This time, a jumper threatens to take his life. Jenna steps into to cover for the psych team (why is the psych team always late in movies? Anyone?) There's a little mayhem, but she eventually ends up saving this sorry ass.

Price and Morgan have a hot date tonight. Doh! It's their rescuees from the pool party! Well, if the girls start drowning in cum, at least they have a good chance at getting saved.

Asia Carrera and Jonathan Morgan are skinny dipping in the hot tub; Asia looks stunning as she administers expert oral attention on Morgan's pole. Too soon, they are back indoors joining Eric Price and Sydnee Steele. There is partner swapping and multiple position changes. Morgan pulls out of Sydnee's ass and shoots his wad over her neatly trimmed pubes. Price shoots his load on the waiting faces of Sydnee and Asia.

Back at the station, TT Boy and Jenna are bunkmates. After a short repartee, Jenna goes to sleep as TT Boy reads his men's magazine. I've always admired the energy and dedication that TT Boy puts into his performances (whether it be non-sex acting or fucking); sometimes he might be better off toning it down a notch, but nobody can say that he didn't try hard enough.

In a dream sequence (whose?), Jenna is gyrating in red leather (or is it PVC?) in a "burning building" fetish scene. TT Boy magically appears and soon the hot blonde is sucking his cock. TT has always been enthusiastic about eating pussy and who wouldn't want to lick Jenna's? He pumps her pussy but not at his often frenetic pace; he spurts his load onto her mouth and chest.

Some silliness ensues, but then we're back to seriousness. (Yeah, right.) Missy's car has broke down in front of the fire station (how convenient) and she asks Jonathan Morgan if she can borrow the phone to call for help. Along with Johnni Black, Missy is one of my favorite blonde performers of the past five years. Missy does not disappoint in this scene. Her ass must feel especially good because he shoots his load rather quickly.

Jenna and Brittany Andrews are finishing up dinner at a nice restaurant (it looks like they're drinking water though... WTF?). While it's not on the menu, this joint apparently serves tuna taco. They adjourn to the ladies room (curiously empty) where they finish their fun.

Just in case there are a few others like me who haven't see this movie until now, I won't say how this ends.

Post-mortem

This film has not aged as gracefully as some other Wicked features (e.g., Armstrong's Dreamquest still looks great). The lighting was a little too soap opera-like and some of the sex scenes were hampered by slow motion effects. Worse, the story was a bit muddy and full of unnecessary diversions. On the bright side, the film includes two of my favorite blondes from this era: Missy and Johnni Black.

The girls look great and while porn guys tend to be a scruffy looking lot, they mostly look like they belong in a firehouse. I subtracted a full point off the Audio/Video Quality score because of the slow-mo sex. I lopped off a point from the Acting/Plot Score because the plot was a bit hazy; Armstrong should have kept things simpler, or tried harder to explain things.

That said, Brad Armstrong should be proud to have made this film. At the time, it was probably the very best feature in adult film. It's still an enjoyable watch, but one that you'd rent first before making a purchase decision (maybe pick it up used). If you're a Jenna Jameson fan, well, you probably already have this (duh).

Comments? Feel free to send me e-mail.

For many reasons this film works. it is hot, literally. the fire is everywhere -- and the soapy story is entertaining enough for this kind of feature.

scene by scene, it is a hot ordeal. The first fuck for Jenna is by the numbers but hot nonetheless. The 2-on-1 with Jill and Johnni is stellar. Though the buildup is odd, without provocation, the results are tour de force for both. Hearing them talk dirty is intense. The orgy fantasy sequence hits the spot. Sindee usually doesnt do it for me, but fucking alonside Jill and Johnni made her good enough. Next is my favorite scene, the 4way with ...

Flashpoint is my favorite porn flik of all time. The main reason is that the sex is what I like to see.

To be honest, I don't think I've actually ever watched the "story" all the way through. I kept getting bored with it. But when it's time to have sex, it's awesome.

The sex is my favorite. My favorite scene of all time is in this movie. The one with Sydnee Steele, Asia Carerra, Jon Morgan, and Eric Price. That scene keeps me coming back time and time again. It's the best!

The Jenna/TT Boy scene is also intense and keeps me coming back. I also like the Missy/Jon ...

This is an example of a movie being more than the sum of its parts. Or in this case, less than the sum of its parts. The individual elements wouldn't make a bad flick, but mix them together and you've got salmon flavored ice-cream. I like salmon, and I like ice-cream. But I don't like salmon flavored ice-cream.

Once a week my girlfriend and I cuddle up and watch some porn together. The problem we had with this flick was that the plot was somewhat interesting and the sex was good, BUT the plot was not sexual or erotic. The plot was downright depressing. Long dialogs describing ...

Initial Expectations: Wicked and Jenna have put out some amazing movies that have turned into top-notch DVDs. From what Ive heard, Flashpoint is one of ...

Once in a long while we get a movie like Flashpoint. In fact, the last time we got a movie like Flashpoint, it was called Backdraft and it only had one sex scene on top of a fire engine. (All movies about fire fighters need a sex scene on a fire engine) Someone decided that what the adult industry needed was a movie with the plot quality of Backdraft and the sexual heat of Conquest. Lo and behold, Flashpoint is created upon the forge of horny Jenna fans everywhere!

The Plot:Most porn movies start with a sex scene...

First I have to say Jenna Jameson is great, But this movie is not good. One problem I had with this movie was the director keept moving the camera around way too much. Secound, Jenna was not in it enough. The best seen IMO was the second scene that Jenna wasn't even in. This was a high dollor dvd and IMO it wasn't worth it. The girls were hot with awesome looking bod's. The extra's were pretty good. But for what I look for (HOT pussy/anal fucking that lasts longer than 2 mins)it wasn't worth the dough.

Wow, what a DVD. Flashpoint may be the best all-around adult title that I have seen. It has great looking performers, great sex scenes, a half-decent plot and Jenna Jameson. What else could you ask for?

Flashpoint is about a fire station full of gorgeous, horny firefighters. It's like the hottest porn stars in the industry are firefighters in their day jobs. Brad Armstrong has created a title that will be high on most people's favorite porn list.

I really liked the alternate audio track feature of Flashpoint. You can listen to the director's commentary throughout the movie. It...
