Well, soon after trashing Brother Love for shoddy camerawork and production values in "POV Fantasy #4", he puts out "POV Fantasy #5".
I have to say - this is one great movie. Part of the reason, of course, is the kick-ass cast. I mean, if you can't make a at least a good movie with the likes of Texas Presley, Gianna Michaels, and Velicity Von, just hang it up dude! But Brother Love really outdoes himself here. I haven't been that blown away by a POVF release since #1 (with Sunny Lane). Almost every scene in this one is HOT.
Having said all that, the Texas Presley scene is SMOKIN'! The opening tease in the bubble bath, with Texas playing with the bubbles, and then with Brother's cock (partially underwater) is serious stroke material in itself, but when she starts teasing Mr. Love, sucking, nibbling, and biting his cock, I was practically drooling. Awesome eye-contact with camera, great close-ups, etc. All the right ingredients. And Texas looks hotter than I've ever seen her. Those tits are almost perfect. I remember reading something recently about Texas already having left the biz - God, I hope that's not true.
Thanks for the reminder on this one - I've bumped it up to the top of my rental queue. I should be enjoying myself to this one soon! I really like this series - I don't remember any problems with #4.

I've avoided this POV series like the plague since I saw the first title. If someone can make a lackluster scene with Sunny Lane, then something is wrong. The guy is just a lackluster performer. Still, the cast is excellent, so I will most likely rent it.
Even so, Brotha Love is one quarter of the worst performers in the industry: Tony T, John Strong and Van Damage round out the other slots.
The talent stable over at Platinum X and Redlight are hurting badly since many of their people left.
POV flicks annoy me. . .but I'll have to check this one out for Texas (alt girls NEVER stick around. . .but I'm glad to see she at least didi a decent amount of flicks before quitting the biz).
. . . . .question, which girl punches him in the balls? There's always one.

Whatever you say about Tony T. or Brother Love, the fact is they shoot some of the best POV.
I thought POV Fantasy #4 was the 2nd best of them all. Haven't seen #5 but it is due to come in the mail pretty soon.
I dug the first one, but the 3rd was a bit annoying in spots because of some herky-jerky camera movement and poor framing of some of the shots. I'll actually be checkin' out #5 tonight.

The camerawork wasn't the best. The best POV camerawork by far comes from Peter North in my opinion. Plus the camera was shaking like mad during Gianna's scene.
Most POVs seem like the camera's a mile away or it's an inch away. No one can get it right. Lex's Pole Positions are a good example of that. You get to see at most 1/4 of the girl at any one time.
Secondly, they dressed Texas up to look asian. Who thought of this idea? Let her do her thing! Let her hair down and get wild.

You're joking right? I like the Peter North series too, but its not "true POV". There's no way it puts you there as good as Tony T., Mike John, Everhard, or Stefano can. They call can hold the camrea steady and make it feel like you are the one doing the girls.
Screw Evasive Angels and all those other guys who just slap on a POV label to anything where you never see the guys face. That's BS.
Well Texas looked fantastic, but the CG/RCG footage was criminally short and punctuated by ye olde fading boner. Sad to be sure because Texas looked like she really wanted to get her grind on.
Tell me Peter North's Lezley Zen's or Monica Sweetheart's scenes aren't the best. Half of these POVs all you see is a rump, a vagina or the girl's face during most of the scene or the camera seems like it's on the ceiling.
Lexington Steele can hardly get the girl in the camera lens.

Maybe I was a bit too harsh on the North series. I did say that I liked it despite those things I mentioned. Indeed, those scenes you mentioned are some of the best they have to offer. The Monica Sweetheart was just brilliant. And often "POV enough" is good enough for me.
But what's important for me in POV is that you get the girl "right down the center" of the frame during the fucking. As you would be looking at her if YOU were the one doing it. While the Peter North series can simulate this pretty well in cowgirl & BJs, they often screw it up in doggie and missionary because you can tell in those cases the camera is off to the "side" a little bit. It just depends. SOmetimes they DO happen to get a good "centered" doggie shot -- but its not consistent. This might not matter to some people but it does to me.
You are right in that there is a lot of bad POV. Even "true POV" where you know its the camera guy shooting it. Often there will be too many close ups and not enough medium shots. The people I mentioned as being good do not have this problem, thats why I pointed them out.
And Lex is actually starting to improve a bit. "Pole Position: Lex POV 5" was a lot better than the earlier ones.
