Another raunchy adult movie..

Warning: Spoilers
Cleopatra 2: The Legend of Eros left off from Cleopatra 1. Cleopatra has been resurrected and is now living with this guy Jeremy under full protection.

Whilst there, Cleopatra is having dreams from her past from the days when she was Queen. Although there some raunchy scenes on there.. I wouldn't want to write anything..

As the movie goes on Luxuria (Laura Angel) is snooping around trying to find out more about the experiment. By going around asking question just to find out where they've hidden Cleopatra.

Yep! There's more raunchy scenes afterwards but as the movie goes on, it seems that Cleopatra's past has caught up with her.. As she makes love to Jeremy one last time. Cleopatra heads back to the tomb where she came from.. and I think you'll know the rest.

For this, it completes the Cleopatra 1 and 2. Anyway, it was an amazing film. But hey! Antonio Adamo makes these films for people over 18. He's won awards in his time.

Mind you, it was worth watching again.. 6 out of 10!

Sloppy seconds; very poor followup

What went oh so right in Antonio Adamo's "Cleopatra" sinks with a thud in the sequel completing the storyline "Cleopatra II".

Peter Jackson recently milked "The Hobbit" for all its worth, stretching the Tolkien saga out to a bloated 3 features. Adamo has a different problem here - the story of trying to clone Cleopatra's DNA and come up with a modern-day version of her by a corrupt corporation loses its way and is deadly dull in its finishing segment.

The wonderful location work in Egypt is doled out briefly in the final reels, as if an afterthought or some pointless, leftover footage from the original shoot. Prior to that dollop of production value, the feature is just claustrophobic, with boring sex scenes heightened mainly by Laura Angel, who as head of Astrick Corp. gets some heavy-duty humping in.

Cleo, now cloned as present-day version, means that star Julia Taylor gets to wear her regular hairdo, her abilities in the sack unaltered. My favorite sex scene is mixed-combo with the exotic star Bettina bedding down with reliable Mick Blue; he went on to a still-going-strong Chatsworth career following his European successes.

DVD has one ridiculous blooper - it is fitted out with those multiple language tracks, but in a crucial scene in the final reel the English-track version has Bobbi Eden, a fluent English-speaker from Holland in real life, call Angel's villainous character Luxuria by the name "Cornelia" which is Bobbi's name in the movie, so her character doesn't appear to even know her own name in this confrontation scene. I clicked on the French track to compare, and she accurately calls Angel "Luxuria", so it was just sloppiness, proving that despite the time and money spent on these epics there is little care with the finished product for the consumer, who as always in the XXX world is presumed to be only interested in the sex footage.
