Original Sin


In this combination of a skin-flick and who's-fooling-who mystery, our hero is a wealthy Cuban around 1880, who decides to marry a mail-order bride from the US. She turns out to be more beautiful than her picture, and soon he is in sexual heaven. He then makes the mistake of giving her access to his bank accounts, and she soon disappears. He makes a loose alliance with a visiting private detective to track her down, unsure as to whether he wants her back for vengeance or more sex. However, not everything is as it appears...

Ian Douglas: The bonking bits are near the beginning and are only mildly entertaining. The film quickly gets tedious and feels longer than it is. Like I said for Sweet November, unless you need to see Angelina's boobs or Antonio's butt, you can skip this.
