Will Power

Okay, pop quiz hotshot: Your wife is out of town for 30 days. Your best friend is bringing over beautiful women who want to have passionate sex with you. What do you do? What do you do?!!

Well, if you're Tyce Bune's character in Will Power, you muster up the strength to say "no" to the likes of Flick Shagwell, Sunrise Adams, Jade Marcella and Layla Jade - and then finally give-in and have sex with box cover girl Jody Moore (who wouldn't be my first choice among these babes). What the hell is wrong with you, Tyce?!

Writer and director Mike Quasar gives us reality instead of fantasy in this title from Metro, and the film suffers because of it. Hey Mike, if I want to see a guy who doesn't see any action on a daily basis, I have my own life! Let your main character get jiggy with it, for heaven's sake...what's up with all the Catholic guilt?

Our tale begins shortly before wifey leaves town, as she begs hubby not to cheat on her while she is gone. The wife is played by blonde-haired Hannah Harper, and to remind Tyce what he will be missing while she is out of town, she offers up her body for some last-minute sexual fun in the couples' bedroom.

Not long after Hannah leaves town, Tyce's buddy Steven St. Croix shows up with Kristal Summers and the extremely cute Flick Shagwell. Apparently, Tyce had planned to cheat on Hannah all along, but once he has Flick in his arms, he just can't go through with it. Yeah, I have the same problem when a young 18-year-old hottie starts bumping and grinding into me! Hello Tyce? Anyone home in there? Steven gets lucky though, as the already horny Flick joins him and Kristal for some three-way fun.

The next day, Steven gives his buddy a second chance by bringing over Sunrise Adams and Jade Marcella (I have to tell you - Steven could be anyone's best friend if these are the kind of women he hangs out with). Tyce is ready to go, but a surprise phone call from his wife sours his mood (as most phone calls from wives do, regardless of the circumstances). So Jade and Sunrise decide to release their pent-up sexual urges on each other in a hot lesbian pairing.

Since Steven has pretty much given up on his friend, Tyce decides to take the old-fashioned route and hire an escort. But the escort brings her pimp with her and he stands there so he can make sure that Layla gets her money and that Tyce gets what he paid for. Huh?! Has anyone heard of this before? Naturally, Tyce has a performance problem with a guy staring at him (who is played by Mark Wood), so Tyce can't go through with it, and Layla gets it on with Mark instead.

Later that night, Tyce gets a visit from a stripper. Tyce thinks Steven is making one last-ditch effort to get him laid, but as it turns out, the stripper was sent by his wife because she has cheated on him and feels guilty about it. That bitch! Naturally, with all his guilt now gone, Tyce can get down to business, and the movie closes out with a scene between the stripper (Jody Moore) and Tyce.

Will Power has a nice premise, but might have been a lot more fun if Tyce hadn't been so intent on cheating in the first place and was a guy with no intention of cheating who was tempted by all these beautiful women. Also, the last scene is kind of a cop-out, considering it gives Tyce a reason to cheat on his wife - which takes away from the "forbidden" feel of the segment.

Despite being a rather weak movie, the DVD presentation is quite nice, with good video reproduction, average audio (the actor's voices are sometimes hard to hear), and a nice selection of bonuses, which include multiple angles; interviews with Flick, Sunrise and Jade; and a handful of trailers.
