Thief of Hearts would have the audience believe this is a good thing- but is it really? This blooming and blossoming sexual experience is wrapped in deceit, trading one possessive guy for another, and if you think about it too much, it’s all a little too weird. What chick is okay with this? Honestly, a hood literally bumps into a rich housewife at the grocery store and the over the top seduction goes on from there.
But spoiler alert, the romantic elements are totally unrealistic against the criminal aspects of the film and the reality of such a dangerous and deceptive relationship.

Writer and director Douglas Day Stewart ( An Officer and a Gentleman) mistakenly creates what he thinks is every chick’s fantasy- to be roughed up by a criminal who isn’t really that bad of a guy and maybe even ends up a changed man because of you! While I’m not saying that isn’t a perfectly good fantasy indulgence- this movie makes a wonderful case for letting your mind roam, indeed. Fortunately, all the cheesy eighties juice remains in the best guilty pleasure fashion. I saw parts of this preposterously kinky 1984 romance believe it or not produced by Jerry Bruckheimer ( CSI, The Amazing Race, Pirates of the Caribbean, National Treasure, the list goes on…) off and on years ago on television as a kid- you know, exactly when I wasn’t supposed to see it! It’s taken this long- just short of forever it feels like- to find it again. But it is tall and lanky Lena, with instantly trademark bangs hairdo, that impresses, and clearly deserves roles in mainstream cinema.Yeah.

In addition to recently crowned busy star Kendra Spade as Katie's ex-lover, we have busty and exotic Gia Milana (who I first discovered when she was known as Shay Evans), pretty blondes Nikki Peach and Bella Rose plus plain-jane Jaycee Starr. And the sex interludes are as extraneous to the narrative as usual, though introducing a new lineup of starlets.

From the meet-cute scene with antihero Ryan Driller, Katie's odyssey to escape from the mundane routine of ordinary life ultimately is left unresolved and thereby unsatisfying -as if this was merely a pilot for a series rather than a stand-alone film. Problem here, which keeps this Hank Hoffman movie from both respectibility and true artistic achievement, is that crutch of pausing the requisite number (5 for Wicked releases) of times for a tedious 20-minute XXX sex scene. Her pranks and impromptu antics are not humorous but merely strange and seemingly spontaneous, creating a "what will Katie do next?" mood that's both watchable and a pleasant diversion from the ossified porno format.
It plays more like a Non-Adult indie rom-com than porn, with unpredictable moves by its free spirit heroine Katie, very well-played with naturalism by actess newcomer Lena Anderson, who doesn't resemble any of the stereotypes of what a pornstar looks like. Not altogether successful, "Thief of Hearts" is a sleeper from Wicked Pictures, far removed from assembly-line porn and worth discovering for its originality.
