Review: "Golden Girls XXX"

I've watched a lot of porn parodies. I've watched Rezervoir Doggs, which is one of the most fucked up porn parodies I've ever seen (but man, I love it). I've watched a freakish spider lady giving a blowjob in a porn gif that has scarred me for life.

To be completely honest, "Golden Girls XXX" was the first porn parody I couldn't sit through.

I watched two sex scenes, and the acting was decent for the characters... but the dialogue was so poorly written and there was a *laugh track*. I really do not think porn should have a laugh track, ever, under any circumstances, particularly when the laugh track isn't really timed with any lines. It was hugely distracting to have this disembodied laughter, with swells and ebbs that matched nothing else going on. It felt manic and really off.

Maybe it's the fact it took 15 minutes before any sex happened, so I was already kind of bored. The sex, at least what I saw of it, was decent- I'm glad to see a parody porn where the physiques of the men are considered important enough to comment on and expose, as typically the male porn stars are ignored in favour of the female ones.  I'd like to see more of that in porn, so I consider that a plus. Also the female talent is super sexy, and we don't get to see nearly enough MILFs doing sex scenes in my opinion, so it has that going for it.

But I didn't want to watch the full thing when I discovered that one of the tropes being explored in this was a lesbian being "turned" by the magic of James Deen's dick. Especially if the writing isn't quality enough to poke fun at this trope, it's just outdated and kinda creepy.

For me, a porn parody requires that the parody be equal to the porn. It doesn't mean that I need as much plot as I need hardcore sex, but if I can't really tell what it's a parody of, or I'm distracted by the dialogue? I consider that a porno failure. Usually I watch porn parodies for the plot, with the sex scenes as an added bonus (especially if they stay in character)- in this case, though, I actually think only the sex was worthwhile.

"Golden Girls XXX", I wanted to like your snarky MILF promises, but there was nothing behind them.
