Synopsis | |
Review | JUNK BOY is a sex comedy about a young man who is determined to make his way in the world of glossy magazine publishing. Ryuchi, extremely confident and full of himself, arrives for interview at Potato Boy magazine. The interview panel is clearly looking for a serious sort of person, while all Ryuchi can think of is how much he'd like to get his hands on the one woman in the room, who unfortunately turns out to be the senior editor. Guys with erections don't get serious jobs, but Ryuchi is ecstatic when offered another job; it turns out to involve grading the naughty photos. Other equally menial tasks lie in store for him, but our priapic hero is totally undaunted. This video succeeds admirably in what it sets out to do; it's sexy, funny, and, being set in the real world of publishing, interesting. If it has a fault, it is that it's too indulgent of its big-headed sex-pest main character. |
