Uhm! Let me answer with this at least 50 e-mails i have received in the last 2 weeks asking if i would stop reviewing porn just because i have been father for the first time. Well, answer is NO. That's my promise from the heart; same as the title reviewing today.

There’s one thing I know every time I put a David Stanley porn into my DVD player: it’s going to be an interesting story. But the surprise I got from viewing Promises Of The Heart is how great a job Stanley did with the sex scenes. Each one of them is pretty hot, and the opening threesome between Jenna Haze, Mia Smiles and Evan Stone is one of the best I’ve seen in a couples’ feature this year.

The movie stars Jenna Haze and Chris Cannon as a pair of friends who (on Chris’ birthday) decide that if they aren’t with someone in a year’s time, they will get married to each other. Jenna says this more-or-less as a joke, but Chris takes it seriously, and when his next birthday rolls around, he confronts her with what she said a year ago.

It’s important to point out here that most of what happens in Promises Of The Heart occurs as a flashback. The movie begins with an injured and bloodied Chris being loaded onto an ambulance, and the movie basically details how he got to that point. We don’t find out exactly what has happened to Chris or what the result is until the very end of the movie. The DVD of Promises Of The Heart offers the movie in anamorphic widescreen with 5.1 Dolby sound. Extras on the disc consist of a bonus scene with Jenna and Evan (taken from The Morgan Sex Project 6); the trailer for Promises; a 19-minute Making-Of featurette; slides shows; biographies for the girls; six trailers; and the standard promotional material one will find on all Wicked DVD releases.

The first David Stanley movie I’ve seen where the sex is better than the story, Promises Of The Heart is fun for any fan of Jenna Haze, yet still interesting enough to keep the attention of female viewers who may be watching alone or as part of a couple.
