3.0 out of 5 stars
late night, softcore fare, April 30, 2002
This is a late-night, softcore erotic drama, similar to stuff being shown on Showtime or Cinemax. There are quite a few skin scenes here, with a few girl-girl scenes that get a little steamy, but end relatively quickly. Most erotic movies of this type tend to have maybe 2 or 3 major love scenes, but this one has about 8 or 9 scenes total, some as short as 2 minutes, others as long as 5 minutes. Nothing raunchy, but some scenes do fall into the "unrated" category. The story is relatively boring and uninteresting, about a smalltown girl who visits the big city for the first time, but the beautiful lead actress, Susan Featherly, who is on the cover, reminds me of an Americanized version of supermodel Elle MacPherson and simply captures my attention. The DVD itself is a barebones DVD, with just a chapter selection menu. The video transfer is pretty clean, but the colors are a bit dull. There are no subtitles or captions, just a 2-channel stereo sound signal. In comparison to regular movies, this is a weak unoriginal movie. However, in comparison to other late-night softcore erotica, this is actually one of the better ones I've run across, as most everything is done with taste.

Don't know what woke her up, but it sure wasn't this movie., February 11, 2005
Gabriella (Susan Featherly) is an innocent, naive, young girl living a simple country life with... ah, forget it! She's stupid white trash! She catches her husband cheating on her, so she leaves for LA. She picks up a hitchhiker and has sex with him. When she gets to LA, she becomes a stripper. This catches the attention of some rich guy. She ditches the hitchiker and goes to live with the rich guy where she achieves her lifelong dream of being a trophy wife. Ten years from now Gabriella will REALLY be awakened when her sugar daddy dumps her for another 20-something bimbo. Unfortunately, the pain I endured watching this was not adequetely offset with hot sex scenes. There are seven sex scenes, two strip scenes, a nude massage scene, and a non-sex girl/girl bath scene. Five of the sex scenes are boy/girl and two are girl/girl. Only four of the sex scenes were decent. Two of them went by too quickly, and the other one consisted almost entirely of the girl's head bouncing up and down on my television screen. The only memorable one was the lesbian scene between Susan and Jeannie Millar. The women are all beautiful. In addition to Susan and Jeannie, there is also Taimie Hannum and two other women that I didn't recognize. But what's the point of beautiful women if the director just wastes them? This wasn't a total bomb, but could have been much better. Do I recommend this? I think it all comes down to how badly you want to see Jeannie Millar, since she's super hot, but not in much stuff. If that isn't important to you, look elsewhere.

ONE OF THE MOST INTRIGUING DVD's OF IT'S KIND SO FAR, April 26, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Awakening of Gabriella (DVD)
This DVD was totally hot in the beginning, Gabriella (Susan Featherly) arrives home to discover her husband is unsatisfied with her innocence, and is indulging during a lunch break with one of the hottest young gals I've seen in a long time..Angie (Penthouse Pet Hotted Crystal Craft) Monte and Craft by far have the hottest scene in this flick ... lucky for you & your partner; it's in the first five minutes! After all's said and done, be assured this film will only spice up your evening.
