Anna Nicole Smith: Exposed is a DVD combining Playboy-esque soft-focus images of Anna doing her thing, as well as the 'thing' of men or women, whether it's having simulated outdoor sex with a bloke or sharing a frothy foam bath with her chambermaid. There's also a clip of a dreadful film called Skyscraper in which she stars. No cliches left unturned!

Also incoporated is her Video Calendar which takes you behind the scenes as she goes through each month in turn with footage of the photo shoot.

I have no complaints with the picture quality, but it's not the most outstanding DVD you'll see all year. Presented in fullscreen you could zoom it in to fill your widescreen TV if you so desire. The average bitrate is an above-average 5.4Mb/s.

The sound format isn't stated on the cover, but it's most likely stereo. Twee dialogue and even tweer (is there such a word?) music in the background don't win this section many points.


Extras :

Chapters :

There's a decent number of chapters - 21 - which cover the 12 Video Calendar sections, the 8 Playboy copies and the closing credits. There are two chapter selection menus as a result, but within the film you can skip to whichever of 21 you prefer.

Languages & Subtitles :

Language in country-girl American, with no subtitles.

Menu :

The menu is static and silent, with the basic options.

So, THIS is what they meant by 'Room Service' ?!


Overall, fans of Playboy: The Best of Anna Nicole Smith will no doubt lap this up, but it's a bit of nonsense that is probably best aged at the early teen market for all the angst-ridden mob who think that all women really are this sensual.

I have to take issue with Anna on her comment that she starts each day by masturbating as it's such a refreshing start to the morning. I thought the idea was for it to put you back to sleep. Then again, if she was in my bedroom doing the do...
