Behind the Scenes: All Access: the Making of Improper Conduct:
This featurette is a 30 minute presentation of the making of Improper Conduct. We get a view of the set and to hear the opinions and comments of the cast members and director. It's pretty interesting to hear their thoughts. We also get to view the personalities of the cast. Plus there are a few laughs involved. Evan Stone makes a comment about the power associated with being a porno director, it's just funny. You'll just have to see it to understand. He's a funny guy. This was pretty entertaining.
Director/Star Commentary with Brad Armstrong and Devinn Lane:
The commentary by Brad and Devinn provided a variety of information, humor, and in sight. From this commentary we find that Devinn is a fairly sexual individual. The two discuss various sexual preferences and interests. They joke together; discuss the cast and the stage. There was a part when the audio cut out for several seconds, slightly annoying as Devinn was in mid sentence when it occurred. I enjoyed the commentary; it contained some laugh worthy humor, though it is very different from what you hear in mainstream films.

Audio/Video: The video was presented in 1.33:1 ratio Full Frame color. The picture quality was very good. It was a little dark in some scenes, but it added to the mood. The sound was presented in Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. The audio quality was excellent. The background music during sex scenes was calm and soothing classical music. The music played during various portions of feature sounded brilliant. No complaints or issues on my part.
Body of Review: Wicked presents a Brad Armstrong feature, Improper Conduct. This feature consists of several big names in the adult industry. The cast consisted of Steven as Xavier the maestro, Asia as Susan the violinist, Devinn as Marisa the cellist, Bridgette as Sylvia the prostitute, Scott Styles as Malcolm the violinist, Aria as Gabriel the violinist, and Evan as the no named bassist.
Plot:
Xavier is the maestro of a small orchestra, consisting of six individuals. There are four violinists, a cellist, and a bassist. He is a rather successful in his work. Currently he hinder physically from the stress of his work. It has rendered him impotent. Xavier has had a love interest in one of the violinists, Susan. His love interests change after meeting the new cellist Marisa.
Xavier asks Marisa to become dedicated the development of his music. In order to do this, she must be willing to do anything. Xavier uses this to seduce Marisa to engage in various sexual acts. He does not engage in these acts himself, due to his impotence. He claims that the pain and suffering he goes through by witnessing beautiful women engage in sexual activities provide him with the necessary motivation to develop better music.
Can Marisa change the way Xavier is? Can she make him a better person?
Acting:
The major acting roles were played by Steven St. Croix and Devinn Lane. They both played their roles very well. Steven did a wonderful job providing the necessary depth to his character. Xavier is the cold dark experienced maestro who overly focused on his work. Devinn plays Marisa the cellist who is a young and submissive girl. Her character is slightly confused, because she is does not want to perform the acts that Xavier asks her too, but she does. The other roles were supporting cast and their participation was minimal. However it they were also done well.
Here is a scene by scene break down of the sexual activities within.
Scene 1: Asia Carrera, Steven St. Croix
In this scene we have Steven imaging that he enters his room to find Asia in long black leather coat. A few words are exchanged and she removes the jacket to reveal red lingerie. She looks stunning. She takes on Steven in oral and straight sex. The money shot is unloaded on her stomach.
Asia with her beautiful face, gorgeous body, and large breasts has always had great chemistry with Steven St. Croix. This results in good sex. Asia's oral segment was particularly wonderful. The sex was energetic and passionate. This was definitely a hot scene.
Rating: 9/10
Scene 2: Devinn Lane, Bridgette Kerkove, Steven St. Croix
In this scene we find Devinn, Bridgette, and Steven Instead of a limo. Steven watches as Bridgette goes down on Devinn. After her climax she exits the car. Bridgette then takes a champagne bottle and uses it as a sexual toy. She inserts it into her mouth and other two holes.
This scene was conducted very well. Devinn is brown haired girl with a beautiful face, large breasts, and a nice body. Bridgette is a blonde haired girl with large lips, large breasts, and a nice body. The two girls have a pretty hot scene together. The solo scene of Bridgette with the champagne bottle was also pretty hot. Definitely a good scene.
Rating: 8/10
Scene 3: Devinn Lane, Scott Styles
In this scene we find Devinn motivating Scott to be a better violinist by using sex. The two engage in oral and straight sex. The scene ends with a facial. It was very inspiring. If I were Scott, I'd play worse to get more motivation from Devinn. This was a fairly hot scene.
Rating: 8/10
Scene 4: Devinn Lane, Aria
In this scene we find Devinn and Aria engaging in girl/girl action. Devinn looks as good as she always does in this scene. She's wearing a black one piece dress. Aria is tall brunette with a decent looking face. She has firm medium sized breasts and a great body. She's wearing a gray dress and underneath she has a strap-on toy that she uses to pleasure Devinn. This scene was good, but not hot.
Rating: 7/10
Scene 5: Devinn Lane, Asia Carrera, Jessica Drake, Aria, Steven St. Croix, Scott Styles, Evan Stone
Everyone is playing their specified musical instruments. Steven's rubs his eyes and everyone is naked! Aria pairs up with Scott, Devinn with Evan, and Asia with Jessica. They all then engage in various sexual activities. Both pairs of Aria and Scott, Devinn and Evan engage in oral and straight sex. Asia and Jessica satisfy one another using their hands, mouth, and toys. The groupings change and Asia and Jessica team up with Evan. Aria and Devinn join Scott. The girls take turns with oral and straight sex. There is a lot of action being conducted. The scene ends with everyone crowded around Devinn. Both Evan and Scott unload on Devinn's breasts. The other three girls lick off the payload.
This was a very hot scene. The group action was conducted very well. We got to watch four attractive girls take on two guys. The oral and straight sex was conducted beautifully. The sex was energetic, exciting, and most of all hot. Normally I have issues with large group scenes, because the camera always seems to jump around too much. However, the camera was done well and the jumping around didn't seem like jumping around.
Rating: 9/10
Scene 6: Devinn Lane, Steven St. Croix
In this scene Devinn inspires Steven by playing a musical piece. Previously he claimed he was impotent due to the pain of his music, yet she has now opened up a new world to his eyes. The two engage in oral and straight sex. The scene ends with Steven unloading the money shot on Devinn's stomach.
This was a good scene, but not the best of this feature. The mood of this scene was very somber and quiet. The sex was intriguing, but not very exciting or hot.
Rating: 7/10
Concluding Words: I was very happy with this title. I thought that the plot of the feature was somewhat enjoyable. While it was a stupid excuse to include sex in a story, it was nonetheless executed very well. I was also happy that everyone fulfilled their acting roles very well.
The sex in this feature was very passionate and clean. The scenes were all fairly hot. Seeing Asia and Steven St. Croix in action was a definite plus. Their chemistry together has always been very good. Devinn was in most of the scenes and her activity was wonderful. The sex wasn't dirty like what you would find in Red Light District releases, but it was still very energetic and exciting.
This feature also included a good amount of extras. The director/star commentary and the behind the scenes featurette were the most of enjoyable extras. They are definitely worth a look after viewing this feature. The other extras included provided a stronger base than the majority of adult films. There just isn't a big focus on this. On another note I'm still waiting for subtitles to become a standard in adult films, but that most likely won't happen. Anyways the extras included were a definite bonus on top of a good title.
This was without a doubt a good feature. It is suitable for various audiences. Specifically this feature would make a great couples film. I am Highly Recommending this feature for purchase.
Note that each scene is rated from a scale of 0 to 10.
