Summary: Superb display of beauty, sensuality and eroticism.
Review: A hot and outstanding piece of erotic art. This is Sylvia Kristel's only great movie. Her beauty was at her peak then, and she was well directed. The director, Just Jaeckin, has a superb ability to present sensuality and sex. His movies have the photographic qualities found in the works of: Richard Avedon, Sante D'Orazio and Richard Hamilton. Just Jaeckin cinematic narrative is as exciting as that of the masters of sensual literature. The music is so good that you will want to buy the soundtrack by itself.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Love it for what it is
Review: A low budget erotic flick, that probably inspired the creation of many others. Tame by today's standards, after Halle Berry revolutionized the R-rating in Monster's Ball, but still full of surprises, especially how it breaks taboos and ventures into fantasies openly. The only annoying character is Mario and his philisophy on the outer realms of pleasure_ kinda funny, at the same time. Besides, the lead actress has the face of an angel. Watch it with a girlfriend.

Summary: Somethings missing
Review: I had seen this film years ago and thought I'd give it another try.. Sound and background music are on the poor side.. Acting is vauge. There is an attempt to prop up the acting with nudity buy even that failed.. Having been to Thailand, I must say I enjoyed the background shots of the country, but it didn't help the movie much..The director of this film went all out to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.. WHY was this put in the adult section? Don't waste you money on this movie.. You'd be better off watching a cartoon.... Another beauty from the wonderful folks at Amazon.com. Thats strike three for this kid...

Summary: Black Emanuelle
Review: I have always been a fan of Emanuelle films and i would say that the Italian versions are much better, although this is the orginal. Black Emanuelle, Emanuelle around the World and Emanuelle in America are by far the best titles in the Emanuelle series. If you are looking for Emanuelle movies then i suggest you look for Laura Gemser, and not Sylvia Krystal. Believe me this one is not worth it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great film adaptation of the controversial book!
Review: I have never read the book, but if the novel were anywhere near as good as its film adaptation, then I'd love to give it a whirl. Sylvia Kristel plays a young and beautiful wife of a French ambassador who initiates into the world of uninhibited and no-holds-barred sex. A self-proclaimed prude, she hadn't anticipated that she would surrender so easily to a life of immense passion and eroticism...

I was under the impression that this was a smut film without an academic plot... I am pleased to announce that it is not! This is one of the most memorable erotic films out there. Emmanuelle is a classic!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not good enough
Review: I have seen better versions of Emmanuellemovies, but i think this one is ok. If you haven't seen anyone of the other, don't start with this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hot softcore
Review: I just watched this movie for the first time and I have to say that it was worth the money. It is not a porno and nothing was explicit, I am surprised that it is not rated R. However the actresses are all very beautiful and just enough is seen to make the movie erotic. The lesbian scenes really make the movie.

The movie in general is entertaining. It kept my attention even when they had clothes on. The scenes of Bankok were great and very interesting. I am going to keep this movie, and oh yea the soundtrack really is pretty good!

Rating: 5 stars
