Review

From the GayVN-nominated director of Hotel Italia and The Road to Naples comes Lucas Kazan's finest achievement yet with his sumptuous Across the Ocean.

Hotel Italia completely blew us away (and still sells like crazy over a year later) but this is the one which may win him not only some serious awards, but a fanatical fan following as well. With this release he is catapulted into the "A-list" director's list... no question.

Everything about this one is nearly perfect: Leonardo Rossi's stunning location photography (both Rome and Death Valley figure prominently here); the deeply passionate (and ungodly hung and beautifully chiseled) men that populate this sextravaganza; even Jefferson's beautiful box art - this one firmly landed in our "Best of the Year" heap.

Expect lots of rubbing, groping and touching, guys ranging from gym-built or gymnast-ripped, and both smooth and naturally hairy. Expect some truly enormous cumloads. Expect to really like this one a lot. Our whole office did, that's for sure. There are so many killer sequences to be found, that a full "play-by-play" review seems moot.
