X-Rated: The Greatest Adult Movies of All Time

X-Rated: The Greatest Adult Movies of All Time is a flimsy look at the classic porn films from Deep Throat to the more recent output which tends to be parody films like that of Star Wars.

The documentary is presented by porn actress Chanel Preston. It is more interesting when it discusses the movies of the 1970s and 80s. We even get to hear from some of the performers from that era, Johnny Keyes and Georgina Spelvin.

Sadly some of the stars from that era such as Jamie Gillis are no longer with us and not featured here although their behaviour is discussed. Some like Annette Haven have turned their back on the industry.

I did it find it amusing to hear modern porn stars talking in depth about movies such as The Devil in Miss Jones. I doubt they have even seen these classic movies never mind be able to analyse them.

The film lost interest for me when it came to the recent era where the definition of classic porn is how many Adult Video awards it has won. It was interesting to see how many of these newer films use green screen and claim to have higher budgets and more shooting days at a time when the porn films are easily torrented. However the Star Wars parody was rather well done.

It was all rather gossamer thin which probably should had concentrated more on porn until the year 2000.
