Hidden Beauties: The Awakening Reviews:
Shonky and short weight. 
2003-10-25 - This shonky production gives a new dimension to the term 'exploitation'. The DVD cover lists the running time as 85 minutes. It isn't. The total running time of the disc is 73 mins. To compound the deceit the running time of the story, such as it is, is a mere 59 mins. The balance of the time is taken up with a 14 min credit crawl. That's longer than the credit crawls for Ben-Hur and The Ten Commandments combined. It's painfully slow and is plainly done for the sole purpose of padding out the disc. Don't waste your time looking for the director's commentary and Behind The Scenes mentioned on the cover. They're nowhere to be found. A complete disgrace.
Okayyyy........... 
2002-03-15 - When I ordered this film on line ..., I had pretty high expectations for it to be pretty good. Surrender Cinema is usually--as mentioned by another reviewer--a pretty reliable source for films like these (Femalien, Virtual Encounters, Lolida 2000). I wasn't expecting a great, well thought-out drama flick--I just wanted what everyone else who bought this movie or is considering to do so: hot girls and lots of skin. As for the "hot girls" part, there is not a whole lot of them in Hidden Beauties, let me tell you that (no offense to any of the women who starred in this film). Okay, so this movie is not chalk-full of bodacious babes. So? To make matters worse, most of the acting during the sex scenes isn't that good and it is not that stimulating to get couples in the mood who may be watching this film together (which defeats the purpose of watching something like this in the first place!).
The bottom line is that while there may not be an abundance of steaming love-making scenes and hot girls wherever the camera turns and the acting is pretty bad, it is an okay movie. I am not saying rush out and buy Hidden Beauties nor am I trying to imply that this is an awful movie. I am just saying that there are dozens upon dozens of better softcore flicks out there in part by Surrender Cinema. Consider those before this one. Trust me, you will be glad you did.
Horrible Tripe, and I like these kind of movies...... 
2001-11-29 - When I ordered this off amazon, I was hoping that the film would be as good as those "guilty pleasure" late night Cinemax films that I so enjoy watching. But this film was truly pitiful. I was hoping for some good looking girls, and what I got were some unatractive strippers that seemed like they didn't read the (horrible) script. I was hoping that Nikki would save the film, but she was pulling off some weird back-flip, stunt-man stripping! Like I said, I usaully love films that have beutiful naked girls doing naughty things, but this, is not that! Take my advice and subsribe to Cinemax!
PRETTY GOOD 
2001-11-06 - Not bad at all for this genre (soft core erotica). Lovely girls who look wholesome and seem to be having fun. Anything with Nikki Fritz in it is by definition worth seeing.
Fortunately, Robert Donovan has almost a cameo role.
Cheesy adult entertainment
1999-06-28 - This movie is a typical sex movie. Good plot, weak acting, but overall fun. Good for bachelor's parties or similar events.
