Review: Change of Pace 3 - Part 1


Sleeperkid is an underground producer of wrestling videos (hence the change of pace title for this video). Although he includes famous (in the fetish area) models increasingly more, he still manages to maintain his best quality: good action. The girls throw kicks and punches, and some fairly complex wrestling moves which I'm sure need some training beforehand. So, a good candidate to produce action-packed gunfun videos.

Since the video is long and split in 2 halves, the same will happen to the review.

The Girls & Attire:
My viewpoint & disclaimer: generally, I prefer sporty clothes (eg, tops, tight shorts, etc.) to everyday clothes or business wear; I also appreciate uniform-like attire, which can be as elaborate as sci-fi or army uniforms, to something as simples as black-bikini vs white bikini.

The video features 4 girls: from left to right, there's Alex, Devon, Eliza and Helena. All are wearing black pants and tops (see for yourself).
There is definitely a "bad girl" vibe going on; the girls are pretty and really get into the action. You get the feeling they were having fun, which is a huge step to get a 5 star video.



The Numbers:
This a massive 1h19m video, with the first part lasting roughly 38m. There are 20+ scenes.
It costs 54 USD

The Action:
My viewpoint & disclaimer: to keep the description from being repetitive, I’ll define beforehand the most common type of acting you find in these genre videos:
Going through the motions – almost no speech or acting, the girls just lie down when they’re shot, usually swaying or writhing for a bit; this can be by design, not necessarily poor acting. I guess it can be preferred by those who tend to find these videos immature.
Over-the-top, in-character– MY FAVORITE: the girls really act out their parts, pretending to dodge, shoot back, with lines like “I’ll get you yet!”, “You’re mine!” or “Argh! U got me!”
Goofy – the girls have a more child’s-play stance, they laugh or giggle, with speech along the lines of “I shot you, cheater!”, “No, you missed!”,etc.

This is very good over-the-top action, with some funny moments here and there. For example, there is a scene where the camera-gunman has all 4 at gunpoint, and is looking for whoever tried to shoot him.  They all try to blame the others while claiming to be mere bystanders. In another scene, 2 are standing guard and one mentions she had a crazy dream where she got shot in the back, and the other mentions that's never a good sign...

Most scenes are replayed with slight variations. Sometimes there is a clear winner(s), other times they all fall down (and sometime there is a winner who gets shot by the cameraman, just to make a bigger body pile!)

Here is a scenario list (not exhaustive!):

  • 3 of the girls are lined up against wall and frisked, the shot by 4th
  • gunman surprises and shoots all 4
  • duel tournament 


  • team duel!


  • duel the camera-gunman
  • human shield
  • surprised sentries
  • sentries surprise infiltrators!
  • toy swords duel


  • 3-on-1 sword fight - one of my favorites. I love when overconfident bad girls get the tables turned on them, and Devon here manages to defeat all her assailants.


With 4 actresses in the video, huge body piles are a frequent sight:




The Production:
My viewpoint & disclaimer: I’m no expert on digital video, all I can do is tell if picture quality is decent..

Video quality is decent, but SK wasn't using HD video yet, like he does in later videos. I don't like the machine gun sounds: just a mechanical clac-clac instead of an eletronic daka-daka. But there are a lot of props: 4 machine guns, 2 pistols (at least), and 4 swords. All the action takes place in the same room. The mats covering floor are a huge advantage, since they can drop down without fear of hurting themselves, thus increasing action quality.

The Verdict:

It's a great video,  and this 1st part would almost be worth the 54 USD by itself. But part 2 is coming next.


Yet another disclaimer: this is just my own, biased opinion; picture or videos may not reflect image quality; all rights belong to the above identified producer.
