Review 1
Though Kristen Bjorn certainly can't be accused of churning out video after video, this is his first in quite a while, you can be sure that when he does release a new one, it will be wonderful. And, "The Isle of Men" is sure to be considered one of his best, ever. It also features 18 of the studliest men on Planet Earth. There are very few times a reviewer can call a video an unqualified success, but this is most definitely one. Bjorn manages once again not only to combine the best elements of porn and erotica, but also to set a new standard for other makers of the genre. Set in an old Caribbean seaport, "The Isle of Men" opens with a sweeping vista of an old harbor, with the ruins of a fort or city serving as backdrop. The costuming is on target, with the shirts worn open in the front, lots of gold jewelry, and Panama hats and cigars thrown in for good measure.
In the opener, two utterly delectable guys, (Juan Jimenez and Lazaro Carrera), clad in the aforementioned short-sleeve shirts and Panama hats, hook up in a narrow open passageway when Jimenez hauls out his thick uncut dick for a piss. Jimenez is a major find. Ruggedly handsome, built with bulging muscles, and a dick like a club, Jimenez would be the perfect bait to use to catch any prey -- but that's getting ahead in the story. As Jimenez and Carrera leave the waterfront, arm in arm, a huge freighter passes in the background, creating a wonderful, romantic backdrop. As the two head up the street to Jimenez' place, they pass a gorgeous goateed stranger (Arpad Miklos), and notice him with interest, but keep going. As soon as Jimenez and Carrera are alone they begin kissing passionately. When Jimenez' dick is unleashed from his pants, it literally leaps forward, and its length and girth are unbelievable. Carrera manages to suck Jimenez, but not without some difficulty. Jimenez, proving that he is a real super stud, urges Carrera on throughout the scene, growling gutturally in Spanish as the bottom services his meat. Jimenez blows his first load all over Carrera's face, but there are many more to come. Jimenez props Carrera's leg up on a chair to allow him easy access to the stud's vulnerable, if eager, butthole. Carrera takes it all in one thrust, with Jimenez' urging. But then, and this is a very nice directorial touch by Bjorn, the camera takes a long-angle shot of the two, and in the foreground we can see they are being watched by a stranger who is smoking in the shadows.
Back to the other smoking action. Jimenez pulls out of Carrera's ass mid-fuck to pay a little homage to the tight hole by rimming it. Then he slides back in for more fucking, and again, pulls out for a rim session. Carrera shoots his load while Jimenez' monster cock is still deep inside him, then Jimenez pulls out and shoots all over Carrera's ass. The man in the shadows (Daniel Rivero) comes forward then and lauds the performance he has just seen. He is Jimenez' lover, and apparently the two do this sort of thing often. Soon all three studs are kissing each other, and then Rivero sucks Jimenez while Carrera rims the big stud's asshole. In no time at all, Jimenez is blowing another load (his third so far, if you're keeping count). Rivero then flips back and Carrera fucks his throat while Jimenez slides his huge dick into Carrera's ass. Rivero gets a closer look at the two fucking this time, from just beneath Carrera. Rivera blows a huge load on Carrera's face and lips, and Carrera shoots on Rivero, while still stuffed full of Jimenez' dick. This time, as Jimenez shoots, the camera catches it from below. Next, Rivero is ready to be fucked, and sits on Jimenez' cock. Jimenez sucks Carrera while Rivero is riding his dick, and Jimenez cums yet again, while Carrera cums on Jimenez' face. The scene ends with Carrera eating his cum off Jimenez' face. (Yes, that means Jimenez cums five, count 'em five times in the first scene. It may be a record.)
In the next scene, handsome Mark Anthony is cruising the streets, with, oddly enough, a cruise ship in the harbor background. Anthony is being followed by two guys, that I wouldn't mind tailing me, the tattooed and muscular Lucas Magalhaes and the sinewy and well-defined Iván Andros. Not to mention Miklos, who is still looking for action himself, though he again loses out. When Anthony catches on, and turns around to face his pursuers, he is more than willing to follow the studs home for a three-way. There is a major kissing scene between the three, then Anthony leans over to suck on Magalhaes' protruding nipples and even more protruding (still covered by pants) crotch. Magalhaes then hauls out his big uncut dick and massive, low-hanging balls, and Anthony deep-throats the big dick and tongues Magalhaes' balls. Andros joins in, and they take turns sucking Magalhaes. Then Andros gets behind Magalhaes and rims his ass while Anthony keeps working on the stud's dick. Next, Anthony sits on Magalhaes meat and bounces up and down while sucking on Andros. Anthony blows his first load while still riding Magalhaes for all he is worth, then sucks Andros to a big, spurting orgasm (Andros is arguably the biggest load-spewer in the whole tape), while still impaled on Magalhaes' dick. The three then get down to a three-way suck that has Magalhaes in the middle sucking on Andros with Anthony sucking Magalhaes. In a cum-soaked finale, Anthony shoots again, then Magalhaes and Andros (again, massively) shoot almost simultaneously. Anthony and Magalhaes next lead Andros to a very creaky table (credit Bjorn with having the sense and courage to leave it in, since otherwise the noise from the sex with the guys would have been lost, too). Andros is splayed out as Magalhaes and Anthony rim him, then suck him. Magalhaes then fucks Andros, but not before first blowing a load all over Anthony's face. Anthony gets yet another face full of cum from Andros, who shoots while still being fucked. But they aren't done yet. Next is a three-way fuck with Andros in the middle, taking Magalhaes up the ass while stuffing Anthony with his own uncut meat. Bjorn uses every possible camera angle to show all the action (probably not an easy feat, keeping the guys all hard and ready to go while doing all those set-ups). The three again shoot huge loads at the end of the scene.
In the third scene, another pair of gorgeous hunks (Tony Lazzari and Alexandro Aris) are walking the streets with their shirts open to catch the breeze, and revealing huge pecs and six-pack abs. They pass Miklos, who is still wandering around, and Miklos, struck by them, has an immediate fantasy about the two having sex.
Aris unzips first, revealing a monster dick with an upward curve, which Lazzari eagerly gobbles up. Aris has those wonderful balls that dance in the sac when he is excited, and he leaves a thick wad of jizz on Lazzari's hand when he cums. Then, Aris bends Lazzari over the sofa for a tongue-fuck and he licks Lazzari from his hole to the tip of his cock. The two then share a side-by-side fuck that ends with Lazzari shooting first, then Aris pulling out for his own orgasm.
Back outside, the wandering stud (Miklos) is still on the prowl as he spots a cutie by the pier (Christopher Collins) and two bikini-clad studs playing on the beach (Eric Leneau and Mario De Lazarus). Again, Miklos' imagination runs wild, this time putting the three guys together in a hot scene that starts with Collins releasing both of the other guys' dicks from their Speedos, and then sucking them off in tandem. Both Leneau and De Lazarus are well hung, so Collins has his work cut out for him, but he makes both guys spurt, leaving him with cum dripping off his chin. Then Leneau and De Lazarus go ass-up for Collins, and he takes turns fucking them. When Collins is inside Leneau, he fingers De Lazarus' ass. As soon as Leneau spews, he goes back to De Lazarus, again fucking him deeply, and then Collins pulls out and cums on De Lazarus' ass. Collins leans over and laps his own cum off the ass he just fucked.
Miklos' imagination is boundless, apparently, because he then puts all five studs from the last two scenes together in a bathroom orgy. De Lazarus sucks off Lazzari while he rides a dick, and all five of the guys again have cum-shots.
The next scene opens on a balcony, where tight young muscle hunk Jose Luis Vasquez is sunning himself when two bike riders on the street have an accident. Vasquez invites the two (Luis Clemente and Pietro Rosselli) up for some TLC, and when erections appear, the minor injuries are forgotten. Again, Bjorn does some clever camera work here, and I'm not sure if it involves time-lapse photography or not -- Clemente and Rosselli raise erections without being touched -- their dicks start out at half-mast, and we watch as they grow and point to the sky, seemingly of their own accord. However it is accomplished, it is a very hot trick. First, Vasquez sucks both bike studs off, then they bend Vasquez over a chair and Rosselli does some major foot worship, licking Vasquez' toes and feet, while Vasquez sucks Clemente. Clemente and Rosselli are still wearing some of their bike gear, including gloves, in the scene. Next, Rosselli bends Vasquez' dick back and licks it while shoving his nose into Vasquez' ass. Rosselli then tongue-fucks Vasquez, before sliding his dick into Vasquez' ass. Rosselli is good-looking enough to walk the runways of Milan, so seeing him get so raunchy is a major turn-on. Vasquez continues to suck Clemente while getting fucked and jerks his own dick to orgasm. Then Clemente shoots on Vasquez' face, and Rosselli cums on Vasquez' ass. Vasquez then leads the two to a hallway, where he spreads his legs out so wide he reminds you of the men's gymnastic event at the Olympics. Clemente gets into his ass this time, while Rosselli takes the front. Again, all three shoot their loads. But there is more. Vasquez, Rosselli and Clemente then take to the bed, where Clemente bottoms for Vasquez this time, and Vasquez and Rosselli sixty-nine while Vasquez gets fucked. Then Rosselli fucks Clemente while Clemente sucks Vasquez. Versatility, anyone?
In the final scene, Miklos finally gets his man, or three of them, to be exact, when he uses a key to get some Navy guys (in their uniform whites, no less) up on his rooftop garden. Antonio Armani, Dan Dirk and Ivan Cseska play the sailors. Miklos takes a turn kissing each guy (they are lined up in a row), then goes back and does it again. Then, when the sailors drop trou, Miklos falls to his knees, and, in wonderment akin to a starving man being faced with three delicious, but very different, meals, revels in the sight for a second. Finally, Miklos dives in and samples all three. It's smorgasbord time. After Miklos sucks all three dicks, he takes each guy's load on his chest, and he's still fully dressed. Turnabout is fair play, so next the three sailors all go down on Miklos -- and he cums all over the hairy chest of Dan Dirk. Inside the apartment, two of the sailors bottom for the third and Miklos, again, all shoot big loads. In the finale, Miklos reclines and Dirk sits on his dick while sucking Armani and Cseska fingers Dirk while Miklos is fucking him. Then Cseska slides into Dirk's ass next to Miklos, and Dirk takes both dicks with ease. Dirk blows a load on Miklos' chest, and Cseska slides out of Dirk's ass, and shoots his load all over it. Then Cseska pulls Miklos' dick out of Dirk's ass and jerks the stud off.
"The Isle of Men" is yet another Kristen Bjorn masterwork. *** Highly, Highly Recommended ***

If you've seen one Kristen Bjorn film, you've seen them all-and that's not a bad thing. In fact, over the years, porn aficionados have grown dependent on the not-very-prolific director's grade A, lush foreign adventures in sex. Like fine wine, each one is carefully crafted with a spectacular cast of actors, hand-picked from their native locales, all going at one another every which way they can against a backdrop of wonderfully photographed exotic locales.
In his newest release, THE ISLE OF MEN, Bjorn takes us to a non-determined tropical port(somewhere in the Carribean) brimming with well-muscled studs and sex at every corner, where men are men and women are nowhere to be found.
Once again Bjorn has scoured every corner of the earth to find some of the hottest men alive. This time, rather than focusing on a specific ethnicity, the boys living on the "Isle of Men" would satisfy any fetish--from cocoa skinned mocha boys like Lazaro Carrera and Lucas Magalhaes to WASPy, European "sailors" Antonio Armani, Dan Dirk and Ivan Cseska.

THE ISLE OF MEN was filmed on a Caribbean island in which Arpad Miklos is our default tour guide. We see the island, and it's erotic activities, through his eyes. Like Circe's mythical island where men turn into pigs, Bjorn's island makes men sex pigs. Bjorn's choreography is amazing. He turns sex into a performance piece, a combination of dance, acrobatics, and posing which makes every act new and fresh. The fact that he seldom uses familiar faces also means the viewer cannot bring preconceived preferences (or dislikes) to the viewing. Instead of feeling like you are watching porn stars, you feel like you are watching magic happen. Rating: Scorching!

It's like Kristen Bjorn has the good Lord above sitting on his shoulder when he sits down to shoot a video. Once again - yet again - he has infused his latest video with some of the most beautiful men on the planet, all gorgeous hunks of men with rock-hard cocks and amazing, sculpted bodies. His rainbow casting is dead-on, able to get scenes with guys who don't even speak the same languages yet still connect sexually. It's a secret gift that he's not letting out of the bag yet. We follow popular Bjorn model Arpad Miklos, looking a little different than his Comrades in Arms days, sexier, more handsome. He runs into various hunks throughout one ordinary day in his life, conjures up sexual images and then ultimately gets his moment to diddle.
First scene is a stand out for one reason and one reason alone: Juan Jimenez and his sausage-like appendage. (Okay, that's two reasons.) Jimenez is wandering the docks and runs across Lazaro Carrera and the two have an instant connection. They literally devour each other from the start. After passing Miklos, they are transported to a villa where the two go at each other with abandon, Jimenez working over Carrera's hole with his tongue before he slams that piece of beef into it. We soon discover that they are not alone: turns out Jimenez's boyfriend, older Daddy Daniel Rivero, has been watching and is ready to join in. Rivero and Carrera take turns letting Jimenez fill them with his cock. Definitely the best scene in a video filled with great scenes. Pre-nom Best Threesome.
Next scene has some hot moments as well. Tourist Mark Anthony is snapping pictures and runs across sexy Ivan Andros and Lucas Magalhaes. They follow him and, as with all Bjorn features, the pursuers catch Anthony and the three have a great heated scene as well, Anthony and Andros playing bottom for Magalhaes, as well as a terrific daisy chain fuck that has Andros skewering Anthony while taking Magalhaes in his ass. Good stuff.
Next up is a threesome and a coupling that turns into a fivesome. Alexandros Aris and Tony Lazzari get it on while Christopher Collins takes turns fucking light-skinned black hunk Mario De Lazarius and French hottie Eric Leneau. Aris fucks Lazzari after some heated oral work and then Miklos dreams up the fivesome in a bathtub. Watching big-dicked, ultra-handsome Collins pound Lazzari is fascinating; Aris takes his turn at Leneau's tasty ass.
After passing Miklos, bicyclist Pietro Rosselli falls and hurts his leg while riding with buddy Luis Clemente. Watching from above is Jose Luis Vazquez. He invites the two upstairs to his apartment to help tend to Rosselli's wound - but it's not the wound that Vazquez tends to. Soon, uncut cocks are growing and asses and dicks are being licked like Popsicles. Vazquez plays bottom to both buddies until they move into the bedroom, where Clemente gives up his ass for his pal Rosselli. Another hot scene: there's a moment when Vazquez and Rosselli both have their tongues in Clemente's ass that is amazing. The visuals are stunning, but that's to be expected in a Bjorn video.
Final scene is another heated one, of course. Miklos stumbles across some sailors (Dan Dirk, Ivan Cseska and ultra-sexy Daddy Antonio Armani) and a fantastic finale is set. Miklos takes a turn at each cock, making them blow a load as sort of a prelude to the hot fun ahead. There's another great chain with Cseska in the middle and a great double-penetration that closes out the vid, Dirk taking both Cseska's curvy dick and Miklos' mammoth cock for a lengthy amount of time.
Of course, this review can only touch on what is actually in the video itself. So much sucking and fucking and rimming and hot stuff happening, it's impossible to list in such short space. Needless to say, it's brilliantly shot, edited and cast by Bjorn, who never runs out of steam. And we hope he never will. Yet another masterpiece from King Bjorn. Rating: 4 1/2 stars".

"Hail, hail, and get the Kleenex ready! For the first time in nearly two years the master returns behind the camera. With a stunning cast of eighteen that features a powerful double-anal, double-digit facial and eating shots, exotic locations and crisp photography, we feel quite confident in calling Isle of Men one of the director's all-time greatest.
Most any movie featuring a non-American cast is ripe for comparison to His Majesty, Bjorn. Let's just say right here and right now that there is absolutely no comparing! If there can be any complaint about Bjorn flicks it might be that they are very similar to one another. So what? When you have something that is so close we are talking this close to perfection, why fuck with it? At any rate, rabid Bjorn viewers will surely recognize some of the eighteen (!) faces (and fat uncut cocks) featured in this cast. Bjorn has assembled a group of guys for our collective pleasures.
As usual the gents are not only perfect physical specimens with giant appendages, they are also all total and complete workhorses. These guys cum and cum and cum and then cum some more; their entire performances look not only passionate and wonderful, but effortless too. The cast seems to have a collective sexual appetite that would put any of us horndogs to shame.
Like most of Bjorn's other films this one hasn't much story but is rather a series of lusty loops strung together with breathtaking shots of exotic locales. It really isn't necessary to know the breakdown of each scene, as they are all winners. (In fact, it is important to point out that each scene sizzles hotter than the previous one.) Included here are a really hot double penetration, a scorching doorway fuck train (a Bjorn trademark), guys eating up their own loads off of their partners' hot bods, massive facials, look-ma-no-hands cumshots (yet another of Bjorn's calling cards!), etc.
While quite lengthy, not a single second is wasted. Each scene is extended, adding a sense of realism to the sex that is often lacking in porn. Just as you think the scene is winding down it just heats right back up again. Talk about getting more bang for your buck! Anyway you slice it, The Isle of Men is well worth the cost. In fact, it would be worth twice the price, and you know it! Rating: 4 stars".

In THE ISLE OF MEN, his new fever dream of the Caribbean, Director Kristen Bjorn revisits terrain he explored more than a decade ago in ISLAND FEVER and CARIBBEAN BEAT, and finds new life there. The 18 man cast, one of Bjorn's best mixes of blue ribbon, multi-national, muscular demigods, is predominantly Latino. These sexual athletes have a ferocious dynamism. The sex, which encompasses nearly 60 cum shots, and sometimes pushes the safety envelope, is consistently astonishing. Gay video has never been better than Kristen Bjorn's best work. In THE ISLE OF MEN, he's near his peak. Rating: 4 stars.
