Balancing Act

When the executive producer is Fred Olen Ray and box cover features Monique Gabrielle busting out in technicolor you know what genre 'Angel Eyes' belongs to. Another early 90's low budget T&A flick that delivers the female flesh you expect, but wrapped in a threadbare story that is equal parts silly and/or stupid. Add boring to the list if not for the nudity here too.When the mother of Angel (Gabrielle) is murdered, she shows up at the doorstep of stepdad Steven (John Phillip Law) looking for a place to stay and something seems off. This act doesn't sit well with live-in girlfriend Michelle (Rachel Vickers) even before an infatuation for Steven begins. Complicating matters is he's taken a risky line of credit from criminal Johnny (Erik Estrada) who now wants all his money with interest paid back.A tale mixing murder, sex and two bit thriller elements is low energy, but all the known b-pic faces add charm. Hoke Howell (Midnight Tease 2), Richard Harrison (Blood Debts, Ninja Terminator) & Suzanne Ager (Evil Toons) have small parts. You get a few ladies topless poolside briefly, but Rachel (aka 80s hardcore pornstar Raven) & Gabrielle share top honors providing skin. Lots of simulated sex and trips to the shower. Gary Graver - a skilled cinematographer - directs, but unlike other low budget pics he's been involved in isn't able to make it look better or inject much energy. Camera work stable if flat while editing from shot to shot isn't the strongest.There's a bit of dissent going on in reviews for 'Angel Eyes' that's easy enough to cut through. If you think Monique is the bees knees and will sit thru anything no matter how dumb to see her naked this will suffice. However if you require a passable plot then don't bother. Beware a free to stream option found on Plex though that edits out killer parts including boob on boob action (closeups) and a lovely shot of Gabrielle bent over in thong panties in additional to other "key" moments.

Hard to take serious skin flick

Not expecting anything great, this film is deemed as somewhat of an erotic thriller type, bordering on soft core with the amount of skin shown and explicit scenes while instrumental music is playing in the background the scenes.The plot revolves seemingly around a teen (Monique Gabrielle)- the description mentions she's a teen yet in the film it doesn't make note, as she was around 29 or 30 in the actual film. So that was hard to take her serious playing this deluded teenager given her mature looks and behaviour. Also it's bizarre how the "step father" Steven never fully questions her or even asks for ID. Both him and his girlfriend immediately are rude and dislike her yet never think the call the cops on her. They know she's strange yet he allows her to stay in her house multiple nights.The plot of this film is obviously secondary as it's something which has been done many times (unknown character randomly shows up and turns out to be a psycho with kills along the way). The reveal isn't shocking as we expect it. There are plenty of explicit skin scenes including the highlight with Gabrielle and one of the hitmen towards the later part- ultimately ending violent. This film is essentially a vehicle for both leading women to show skin. Nothing more, the acting all around is subpar, unintentionally funny and a reason why it's hard to take anything serious.

A Monique Gabrielle tour-de-force performance

Any film that features the luscious Monique Gabrielle is a must-see in our book. Ms.Gabrielle is a favorite of the academy having been awarded its highest honor (All-Century team-Eye Candy Hall of Fame). In all her performances, Ms.Gabrielle usually gives it her all and never lets us down. In this film she surpasses our highest expectations and we thank her for it. She is an interesting cast choice by the director Graver (a genetic clone of the auteur Olen Ray). The character Angel is either a troubled teen-age girl or a troubled adult acting like a teen-age girl. With this complex character, Ms.Gabrielle strips away layers of her facade allowing the audience to gain more and more revealing glimpses of Angel until she explodes into a wild ride of energy. Raven (Rachel Vickers) also gives a fine performance and allows the viewer to compare/contrast her talents with Ms. Gabrielle. Overall, Ms.Gabrielle as Angel is pure heaven.
