| Pros: |
+ exclusive content everything from glamour shots to hardcore sex including double penetration
+ daily updates (video or picture series) from Monday to Saturday
+ pretty models that do all sorts of weird and not so weird stuff
+ quality has improved since I was there for the last time
+ pictures have 3000 pixel on the long side
+ H.264 videos with 1280x720 pixel resolution
+ no download limit as far as I can say and no DRM |
| Cons: |
- login via captcha with each new session
- download managers won't work
- navigation sometimes confused me
- some heavy and not to well done photoshoping of images can be seen
- not very much details are given about the models
- condomed sex only (a drawback for some but not for me to be honest)
- search engine is almost useless |
| Bottom Line: |
To get an idea what this site offers let me describe the first set which is Goldie shot in 2006. This 22 yo. girl does everything a model being in front of John's cameras has to do fingering herself, double penetration with dildos, vaginal insertion of a huge dildo, peeing, blow job and anal penetration (condomed sex btw!). This first picture series has 1200x1800 pixel resolution which is very good for mateial from 2006. Her videos are of poor quality with 320x240 WMV2 no comparison to what is being offered nowadays!
The site's name pretty much explains what you will get and this promise won't be broken. Those being brave enough will also find anal fisting wile the girl fisted (Shannya Tweeks) fucks with a guy. This set from August 2008 comes as 720x576 pixel DX50 AVI (good quality I'd say) and the pictures are 2000x3000 pixel large which is standard now.
The latest videos are now 1280x720 pixel large H.264 with AVC1 codec. Strange enough most actors seem to speak french only therefore you will find subtitles in english.
This site truly does most things right. It's kind of a european version of ALS Scan with girls having pubic hair and hardcore sex. Most of the models are very gorgeous and they seem to enjoy what they are doing.
Whoever prepares the images for this site should stop with the heavy work in Photoshop or whatever the software may be. Traces of this work can easily be seen in the lesbian set of Shanis (drop dead gorgeous but overacting heavily in her solo insertion video!) and Eliska.
I'll give this site 89 points and would give a few more if the sites was download manager friendly (I lost a download I was waiting for almost an hour because of connection problems) and if they would stop this captcha login annoyance.
If you like girls from Europe and the explicite type of content then I recommend to join this site. I'm sure you will like it :-) |

| Pros: |
-Quite high production values (lighting, sound, etc)
-Mostly beautiful French (and some other European) women
-Lots of anal (if you're into that)
-Price is reasonable ($24.95) with TBP discount
-An ocean of content
-Site is easy to navigate |
| Cons: |
-Condoms in all intercourse scenes!
-Irritating photo flash bulb use in many scenes, interrupting clear viewing
-Every single scene has about a ten second "Explicite" credit at the beginning, even scenes that are just a few minutes long.
-Feature films are broken up into ten or more parts, with each part once again having the "Explicite" credit at the beginning. It gets very annoying, and seems entirely unnecessary. |
| Bottom Line: |
All things considered, this is an excellent and unique site. For me, the great production values and pretty nasty sex outweigh the negatives. I'm not sure I would stay a member more than a month or two, but there are almost no sites where I would do that. |

| Pros: |
-Bill through CCBill.
-Discount through TBP.
-Very attractive and creatively artistic site design. Extremely easy to navigate.
-Huge site with 1,094 videos, 74,509 photos, and 340 models.
-Videos have four download options. The best is AVI at 720x576, very sharp and clear, MPEG, Quicktime and iPod. Most clips 5 to 10 minutes long.
-Longer movies by director John B Root with nice production values. 23 real movies, not ordinary porn clips.
-1800x1200 photosets. Very nice quality.
-Six updates a week. Three videos and three photosets. |
| Cons: |
-Dialogue is in French, although the site is in poorly translated English. There are also subtitles that need a professional translator as well. Not the worst I have ever seen, but sometimes laughable, even incomprehensible. I have met intermediate level ESL students who could do better.
-Too artsy in its approach. Sometimes misses that erotic quality. I must have missed the art class that the director taught as a prerequisite to joining the site. If I had taken the class I might have appreciated the effort more than I did. |
| Bottom Line: |
The site is a combination of explicit porn and explicit art. Sometimes the balance is a plus, but sometimes it is a minus.
On the plus side, the videos and photos are of terrific quality. The models are great looking for the most part. The director John B. Root gives the models a lot of flexibility as to what content they want to do. As a result you get the feel of spontaneity, of the erotic. The director is not directing the action as in most porn, he is facilitating. Sometimes they just have an interview, sometimes they do hardcore just as you would hope. The site makes me think you the viewers are being ignored and they are just having fun. Sometimes you get the feeling like in the movie "Forrest Gump" that life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you get.
In contrast, Roots style is to clearly showcase the models looks. That is fine, but sometimes I think he misses the point of hardcore. I know what I want to see in a hardcore scene. Soft slow buildup is fine for a softcore glamour photoshoot, but sometimes I just went limp waiting for the good stuff. You need patience for this site, as well as an acquired taste for the artistic. Nice models are fine, but sometimes you need some overtly hot action visuals.
Overall, the site is fine if you don't expect what it does not deliver. The quality and quantity are here. Sometimes I feel the videos and photos are trying too hard to please fans of both the softcore and hardcore styles of porn. Recommended, but by no means my favorite site. |

| Pros: |
-Currently over 300 models being offered.
-The scenes can be simple interviews to lesbian and all the way to hardcore sex that can include anal, DP and some fisting action.
-The downloads are extremle fast.
-Videos can be downloaded in Divx, Mpeg, Wmv, Ipod and Quicktime.
-Photosets can be downloaded as individual or in zip format. THey are crisp and clear.
-Navigation is quite simple.
-Access to some of John Roots movies |
| Cons: |
-I can't be certain but the I expected a lot more updates based on my last membership July 07.
-Although they have a large models base to pick from. Many of these have maybe 1 or 2 photosets.
-Many of the videos have an amateur feel to them.
-There aren't any sets. It's usually a bed, couch office desk or chair.
-The navigation is in English but the content is almost exclusively in French.
-The cost is around 25-30$US. |
| Bottom Line: |
The first time I joined Explicite was in 07 and at the time they had a promotion that gave you full access for 5$. The current cost is 26$ and I would have no problem recommending this site for them but I would be more cautius for any older members looking to rejoin.
Although the language can be an issue for some. I speak French so that isn't an issue and is in fact a definite plus.
They truly have some gorgeous girls doing some fairly nasty stuff. Many of todays rising French pornstars had humble beginnings with this site.
This is one of the few and maybe the only sites that offers has many video download options. |

| Pros: |
+ Lots of beautiful, happy, sensual, and mostly French, girls who love what they do
+ Large amount of content: claimed 1028 vids, 70,358 pics, 327 girls
+ Nice range of choices, from soft to hardcore, with quite a bit of anal, fisting, and pissing too
+ DL speeds of around 500 kb/s
+ Easy navigation, with quick and advanced search features
+ Newest videos are 1280x720 HD, newest pics are 3000x2000
+ Few, if any, American or Eastern Euro girls, tattoos, or implants (quite a few piercings though)
+ Billing through CC Bill
+ Discounted price of $25 through PU |
| Cons: |
- Older content is lower quality, and some scenes are quite short
- Some scenes that are both taped and photographed lose overall focus (see bottom line)
- Some models are not that hot, or just too hairy
- There is occasional camera work that some may find annoying, but it's not that bad
- Almost exclusively French, though site is offered in several languages (English, French, German, Japanese), so France-haters might dislike it
- Condom use may be a turnoff to some |
| Bottom Line: |
Ah, France: the women, the wine, the food...the porn? Yes, I had my doubts about an almost purely French site, especially considering I prefer German and British content when I think of European porn. It is not that I do not like the French; I do, but I think of them as purveyors of more erotic material, rather than the crazy, but bland, style of perverted arts we produce ad nauseam here in the U.S. But this is exactly what I like about this site.
It is neither a pure closeup/gynecological style nor a beautiful, but boring, glamour photography one. Instead it is a mix of hot young, almost all French, girls who do only what they are comfortable doing, never what they feel they "have" to do. Fortunately that covers a lot of ground, from the soft through the hard, and lots in between, including quite a bit of fisting and some peeing (if you are looking for any of this).
These girls seem to be more on the amateur side, though not so much that they have no clue as to what they are doing, or how to do it well and make it look good. Some are no doubt professionals, but there are few implants or models who sport the typical American porn look. There are a few tattoos, but mostly on the guys (maybe three or four very lucky Frenchman who get to really enjoy all these models), and there are more piercings than other modifications. Quite a few are hairy, even by our demanding standards, but it really didn't bother me because of the sheer enthusiasm they show towards their work.
My major complaint is the whole video versus photography approach. Both are captured quite well, but the overlap can be annoying. For example, a photoshoot with a bunch of pics of the cameraman/woman, or a video with the camera flash going off every few seconds. Somewhere in the mix of things the thrill is gone and I am too distracted by the other camera to fully enjoy the videos or pics. This hurt the videos more than the pics, since you can just delete the pics with the camera in them, but I think it keeps quite a few videos from being really good.
Others have cited the camera work, but I like it since it means videos that are actually edited (sometimes with music, instead of just plain porn "dialogue") and not just a single 20 minute take. They also use two or three cameras in some scenes, and it makes for some interesting and enjoyable videos.
There really is a loving and consensual passion to the content here, particularly the hardcore scenes (straight or lesbo). It is something that seems to be missing from most American porn of late, and I forgot how much more I could enjoy things when the sex is an act of physical love and not one of physical degradation. It makes the models more relaxed and comfortable in what they are doing, and to me that is truly erotic. |

A ton of content, close to 1000 videos, 65000 photos and over 300 models.
Daily updates (switch between photo and video sets)
Nice search feature for both models and content.
Good content variety ranging from fashion shoots, solo masturbation, hardcore, fisting, big toys, anal, etc.
Models are attractive for the most part and original. You won't see them all over the web.
Videos have good download options.
Fast downloads. |
| Cons: |
Some video and pic sets are no longer available.
Scenes can be too short at times.
Cameraman can be annoying in some scenes.
No screen caps for the videos.
Older videos are lower quality.
Some unattractive models (usually the older shoots) |
| Bottom Line: |
I just joined the site again after about 8 months and it just continues to grow. Not much has changed in that time except for the addition of a lot of new material, but that's ok for the most part. It remains a very quality site. Some notes of interest:
1. There is a ton of content here, and if you've never been to the site before you will have a field day. However, I was searching for a few sets I had seen on my previous dalliance with the site and couldn't find them, so some things have been taken off. I'm not sure how much, but some things have.
2. There is enough content here to satisy anyone I believe. I was able to satisfy my craving with all of their fisting and big toy scenes, and someone else could do the same with whatever it is they enjoy seeing. None of the niches push the other ones to the side and have precedence, there is a good mix of everything in good proportions.
3. One thing that I did not enjoy in some of the scenes was the camera man. I hate it in any scene when the camera man is constantly moving around, or switching the view. For example, there were more than one scene where a girl is fisting another girl, and the camera is moving from viewing the actual action, to the one girl's face, to the other girl's face, WAY too often. Also, the viewing angle was constantly changing, making it even more annoying. Yes it's nice to have some variety, and yes you need to see the girl's face some times too, but not to that extreme. A good scene in my opinion will have a steady shot on the action 70-80% of the time and the other percent maybe moving around looking at the faces or bodies of the girls. Also, I think some of the scenes could be longer, and the addition of vidcaps to give an idea of what a video is going to be like would be nice as well.
4. Another important point to make is two-fold: the models seen on the site I have never seen anywhere else, and they do not re-release old material "remastered". The more that sites do that kind of garbage, the more I'm going to compliment sites that do not do it. All the updates are brand new material which is very refreshing. I hope that this continues to be the case, and that the sets I mentioned not seeing anymore don't pop back up at some point in a "new update".
Great site overall that should meet most people's fancy. You get a lot here for your membership and it will keep you busy for a while. Definitely worth checking out if you've never been a member. |

*Newbie reviews and ratings don't count toward a site's overall score/rank until the user reaches the Rookie status level (5 points). This rule is needed to help prevent fake (or heavily biased) profiles and reviews.
