This unassuming film looks like your average mass produced vanilla sex porn starring a bunch of pretty faces in a basic scenario—this time around, home renovation. But the fact is, this familiar cast of cuties knows how to make a simple sex scene sizzle. And director Chad Donovan delivers a few surprises to spice up the vanilla.

Perfect, muscular young hunks make this film easy on the eyes, but for me, the best moment takes place in the kitchen between thin and youthful Andrew Phillips and full-bodied, baby-faced Patrick Ross. Ross is the kind of guy we need to see more of in gay film. He’s so not perfect that it makes him so incredibly sexy. He has a little baby fat around the belly, a modestly cute face, and a natural layer of ungroomed body hair—even on his luscious, pudgy booty. Much to the delight of a booty lover like myself, it is not the thinner, twinkish guy who gets banged by the beefier, masculine guy. After some fantastic blowjobs are exchanged, including a 69, Ross squats his fat fuzzy tush right down on Phillips’s big cock and takes it to the hilt, bouncing up and down like a man. The ONLY disappointment is that Ross never gets on all fours to stick that bright white butt in the air for us. The money shot is phenomenal, as Phillips shoots a geyser from his fat cock head all over Ross’s hairy belly.

Matt Cole, always sexy with his muscular body, looks just as beautiful with his face smothered by Marcos Perelli’s meaty ass. In the best rimming scene of the film, Marcos suspends himself over a staircase by holding onto the banisters, and lowers his crack right down on Cole’s pretty mouth. The attention to Perelli’s beautiful pucker is phenomenal, and Cole enjoys the hell out of it. As usual, Cole is fabulously aggressive, fucking Perelli hard—while licking his own armpits! Yummy.

African-American baldy Brian Bodine has a thick, fat cock that was just meant to be shoved up cute Damon Phoenix’s fat white ass. Phoenix gives the big black cock a super wet blowjob, bends over a ladder to have his ass-licked (it never ceases to amaze me how big and juicy this young man’s rump is) then gets filled by Bodine. Unfortunately, the anal loses steam because the men just go through the motions. Phoenix brings it back when he sits on Bodine’s cock and gyrates that ass big time, and the cumshots are a ‘blast.’

Rough-looking CJ Madison is a plumber who ends up in a tub with clean cut real estate agent Eddie Stone. These two ignite the screen with passion as they lay on the foreplay, including mindblowing frottage. It is so intense that you won’t even care if they ever have sex. But they do, with Madison eating Stone’s incredibly pale white ass so that Stone can stick his own fingers up it. The best ass-splitting footage is to be seen here, as Madison tears into Stone hard.

The only complaint about this film is that stunningly handsome, dark-featured Ari Bond only gives us a solo scene. However, director Chad Donovan leaves nothing to the imagination, showing us every inch of the man, front and back.

The men of Ari’s Place are young, hung, pretty and muscular, with the naturally manly Patrick Ross as the much appreciated exception to the gym bunny rule. Sucking, fucking, and rimming are all topnotch, and the cast delivers. While the film doesn’t tread any new ground, it is sure to take you where you need to go….
