A Bring Out the GIMP (Girls in Merciless Peril) Movie Review


Turtle Ninja Mutants: April and the Ooze

Reviewed by Jav Critic


Turtle Ninja Mutants: April and the Ooze stars Sadie Holmes as April Oneal, who is investigating the recent crime wave in New York by the evil "Shredor". April goes against the Mutants advice and ventures deep into Shredor's underground lair where he unveils his secret plan: New ooze designed to create an army of super mutants, that he will test on April herself, but when he does it transforms the once mild mannered reporter into Super April! With her new powers, Super April has a fighting chance against Shredor, but does he have something else up his sleeve too?

And the first thing I liked about this film was the direction: Off-the-bat being incredibly sexual as every single shot is either leading up to/ or resorting from April's pantyhose-clad ass, and is a decision I definitely get behind. It starts the film instantaneously with an erotic feel, and has no pretensions as to what it is, which only makes it more exhilarating to watch (apart from the obvious).

I also love the fact (going along with the blunt sexuality of the film) that a fight scene doesn't even ensure before the sex as the film becomes completely erotically driven, and it takes us by surprise, just like April.

I also LOVE the performance of Sadie Holmes, not only is she incredibly competent and comfortable with these scenes and her dialogue in them, but she's also great at showing the innocence of April, and without leaving the scenes silent like a lot of Superheroine films (and sadly the one I last reviewed), she pleas and begs throughout to keep things interesting, and to not lose sight of the character plus the peril aspect, which leaves the sex scenes feeling spellbinding from her performance alone.

She's also as you might already guess magnificently beautiful, and a joy to watch just on a visual level, let alone the plethora of great sounds and moans she gives us throughout too.

The actor who plays Shredor is also surprisingly capable and efficient in the film as well. He makes sure not to overstay his welcome, or get in the way of Sadie's performance, but when he's needed (and the times right) he does a very good job.

The direction is simple but effective, again not to get in the way of the stars performance (both of them) it gives us the scenes from a very stable, and (to an extent) detached angle so that we can see all the action play out clearly, which in this films case actually draws us in even more to the events. A lot of films can do the opposite and with varied, often frenzied shots they film the scene from deep inside the action, which in some cases (like the film I just reviewed) it can come off claustrophobic, heated and exhilarating. Yet in other cases it can feel incoherent and messy, as not giving a specific sense of place can often be unengaging and infuriating for the audience.

The sex scene is great, my only small gripe is the use of a prosthetic, while it doesn't devalue the scene at all I feel like they should've either had it real or have it completely unsimulated as making it in between means it's a little more awkward for the actors to move around, and have more freedom to give more variety to their positions, but also to give more of a rip-roaring pace and energy to the scene too, yet still as it stands Sadie's performance makes it worthwhile and it's by no means a terrible scene.

The second costume April wears is just great, the idea alone being very titillating (as well as the Ooze scene itself) I love the shiny almost latex-like texture her outfit has. It shows just the right amount of skin, and the mask plus the shimmering red sleeves are just the icing on the cake.

Also luckily in the last sex scene they seem to have heard my complaints from before as this is now fully simulated, and with the addition of Sadie's great new costume plus her already established abilities makes this scene everything I wanted it to be, and more.

So all in all this is a great, to-the-point and supremely erotic film featuring a fantastic performance from Sadie Holmes (and an honorable mention for Shredor's actor), great costume design, fascinating sex scenes with increasing power, speed and ferocity plus some titillating, innovative ideas and peril throughout. So with that being said I wholeheartedly recommend this film.
