With scenes that change as fluidly as the many loads of cum and gallons of piss spent on the floor, "Mens Room: Bakersfield Station" is -- with legendary director Joe Gage at the helm -- a whopping (and fucking) success.
Hairy stud Danny Vox serves as the catalyst for the action. Danny walks into a tearoom in Bakersfield, California, the setting for the entire production, and anything goes between the men who meet there. Danny may or may not know exactly what he's in for, but he at least loves the action enough to stay for the whole day, sucking, fucking, getting pissed on, having a jerk-off contest and climaxing with a double-fuck. Danny's restroom initiation begins with Kent Larson and Matt Majors. Kent, his bronzed, buff muscles glowing in the dim light, and Matt, who is gifted with a cock that is both wide and long, tease each other as they take a leak, shooting their streams over the low divider wall. Danny watches the piss-play over his shoulder, the first of many such moments. Meanwhile, young pup Abram Rodriguez, wearing Harry Potter glasses and an argyle sweater (in other words, pretty nerded-up), walks in on the action. Like a deer caught in headlights, he freezes for a moment, then he proceeds to a stall, where he sneaks peeks at the others, as they get busy.
Abram doesn't stay there for long, however. Kent grabs the young hunk and face-fucks him as Danny is tongue-fucking Matt, a few feet away. Kent shoots his load, licking the excess cum from his fingers as Danny and Matt shoot, too, and Matt's big globs of spunk land all over Danny's rock-hard dick.
Joey Russo, clad in an orange safety vest, enters the men's room and the action gets heated up again. Joey flops out his dick and takes a leak, and the minute the flow stops, he's up and erect, showing it off. Danny, Kent and Abram all take their turn slurping down Joey's rod, while Matt watches and guides the action. Danny then takes on all of the others in a circle-suck. But the highlight is the thorough, energetic fucking of Abram's hairy ass, first by Matt, and then by Kent. Abram is more than able to take both in succession, and when he cums, it's one of the most earth-shattering releases I have ever seen caught on camera. Abram doesn't just have an orgasm, he has a spiritual experience. He shakes, he quivers, he vibrates, and it seems to go on forever. Hallelujah and amen, brother!
Kent bottoms for Matt next, and watching Matt slide his tongue between Kent's taut buttcheeks is great, but watching him slide his huge dick into Kent's pucker is even better. Kent blasts off again, this time all over his flat belly and again he can't resist tasting his own load. Matt shoots next, the cum spurting from the head of his dick, which is shaped exactly like a big, ripe plum, with an indentation down the middle. After Danny and Joey stand and jerk off their loads, another pissing at the trough follows, with dicks lined up and releasing. Then Danny and Matt piss on each other, followed by Danny, Matt and Kent wetting down Abram's boyishly thin torso with heavy streams of piss.
Danny remains behind as all of the others take their leave. In the next scene, Andrew Rubio, Andy Dill, Randy Manroot and Alex Leon join him. Andrew is first, watching Danny's hardon reach for the skies as he stands and pulls on his meat. Businessmen Andy and Randy then come in, and seeing what's going on, Andy decides to stay while Randy makes his excuses and leaves. Then security guard Alex enters and puts out the "Closed" sign and the scene takes off. Alex gets down on Danny's dick and Andy takes off his suit as Andrew fondles Andy's cock. Heavy oral action is next, with both pairs of dudes enjoying blowjobs and the sight of the other couple mirroring their action. Then Danny climbs up on one of the low walls between the toilets and spreads his cheeks, while Alex tongue- and finger-fucks him. Alex shoots a huge geyser as he's got his tongue buried in Danny's hairy asscrack. Andy stands and jerks his dick to orgasm, and then licks the cum from his fingers, and Andrew shoots his first load right after that.
Andrew and Danny climb into shoeshine chairs and watch as Nick Capra gets a wet blowjob, and skater kid Tommy Deluca joins the orgy, playing with hairy daddy Randy's cock with his hands and mouth. The Tommy's dick is revealed, in a real jaw-dropping moment: Tommy is hung like a donkey. The scene builds to a raucous crescendo, with side-by-side slam-fucks in the shoeshine chairs (Danny and Andrew giving their all, on their backs), and Tommy sucking dick to his obvious delight. And when Nick delivers his cum-shot, he shudders as he shoots, with Tommy's face inches away, Nick cumming in big, spurting jets. Then the attention turns to Tommy and his amazing dick, as the slender dude sits and jerks off. Unbelievable both in length and in girth, this dude just has one huge dick.
The cast changes again with the entrance of Lex Kyler, looking very station-wagon-soccer-dad, and lithe and well-hung Marc Sterling, who could easily be his son. Alex gets right down on Marc's erection, and then he shares it with Danny. Meanwhile, Lex, Andy and Tommy get involved in a fierce three-way, with Andy and Tommy going down on Lex's cock to get things rolling. In a palate cleanser of sorts, an extended piss sequence is next, featuring all of the other guys in a half-circle around Danny, their streams drenching his face, hairy chest and head. It seems that the pissing will never end, but Danny is totally into it, and his furry torso looks great soaking wet, matted down with their piss.
The big finale features Marc enticing big Alex's dick with his ripe asshole by spreading his legs for a long rim, followed by a hard ride. But, surprise, the riding is done by Danny, who sits on Marc's erection and bounces on it. Danny slows down long enough to let Alex slide his dick in next to Marc's, getting double-fucked. Then the three switch around, with Danny sitting on Alex's dick while Marc fucks him at the same time from behind. The scene ends with Marc and Alex shooting their loads on Danny's torso, with iron man Alex once again delivering the most impressive load of all.
Featuring a variety of sexy men in realistic situations with outstanding direction by Gage, "Mens Room" is a raunchy foray into unrestrained tearoom sex.

A DVD Review by Martin Cox
Clocking in at exactly three hours, Joe Gage's first production for Titan Media, Mens Room: Bakersfield Station, is the legendary director's most electrifying effort since his return to filmmaking in 2002. It ranks right up there with his classic Kansas City Trilogy, and in many ways surpasses anything he has done before.
Mens Room captures (virtually in real time) a marathon of anonymous sex during one hot afternoon in the cavernous basement restroom of a mythical bus station in mythic middle America. Although it is a wall-to-wall sex film, it is much more than the standard orgy flick in which a group of porn stars strut their stuff. A knowing look at mans most all-pervasive impulse, it brings together 13 men who wander in and out of the place, mingling in various combinations, connecting with fleeting intensity, then vanishing. Each is a distinct character, and none is more interesting, both sexually and dramatically, than the mesmerizing star of the film, Danny Vox.
He is first seen sitting on a cross-country bus at the end of a journey that is bringing him back home. Perhaps he's returning for a parent's funeral, perhaps from having served jail time, perhaps to face a world he has earlier fled -- we never learn the details -- but we can see from the outset that he wears melancholy like a second skin. At first, little about his old hometown seems to have changed, he says, but when he heads downstairs to take a leak, he notes, "something was different..." And that is when his real journey begins.
A world unto itself, the atmospheric setting is virtually another character in the film: Dark green walls, private stalls, an ancient urinal trough, two rows of back-to-back toilets down the center of the room (much like an island counter in a modern kitchen), grimy lavatories, a condom dispenser, even a three-seat shoeshine stand.
Vox barely has time to unzip his fly before two cowboy types (clean-shaven Matt Majors and goateed Kent Larson) stroll in and stand at opposite toilets, facing each other to show off their hefty dicks and shoot arcs of piss into the air. Vox seems mesmerized. (Watersports-as-foreplay is a motif throughout the film.) The two cowpokes, who we gradually come to assume are lovers (or longtime fuckbuddies), may have the fullest bladders west of the Pecos. Gallons later, a youthful, brunet nerd (Abram Rodriguez) with horn-rimmed glasses and a nervous air, arrives. Knowing glances soon slide into cautious first moves, and it is not long before Vox and Rodriguez are on their knees servicing, respectively, Majors and Larson, who lock eyes in bonded triumph as both suckers instantly reveal awesome deep-throat skills. In due time, the first impressive round of money shots is fired off, but not one of the four men is in any hurry to leave.
One sexual set piece flows into another so casually that Men's Room can hardly be described as film with a certain number of "sex scenes." For example, almost before the quartet of the opening number can zip up, a road worker (Joey Russo) in a bright orange safety vest and sunglasses, struts in, heads for a center-stage toilet, and whips out his already airborne, rockhard erection, which is clearly his proudest possession. With elaborate self-confidence, he flaunts it for all to see and waits to be serviced. It takes no time at all for him to become the center of the action, and everyone but Majors takes a turn swinging on his tower of a dick.
It is during this round-robin of oral action that Majors steers Rodriguez to the shoeshine stand to throw him a smoldering doggie fuck under a "No Smoking" sign. After he has loosened the kid up, good buddy Larson takes over and skillfully drives Rodriguez to a release of great jizzy plumes while plugged. As Vox and Russo watch and stroke, the action shifts to a neat surprise: Larson throws himself down on one of the solid partitions separating the toilets to be rimmed and then fucked by Majors. This unexpected display of versatility is breathtaking, as are their copious, high-flying pop shots, which send Vox and Russo over the top, too -- Russo no-handed.
As everyone takes an aprez-sex piss (all over Vox and Rodriguez's chests), another blue-collar type (Andrew Rubio, with a cigarette behind one ear) enters, followed by a pair of older, billiard-ball-bald businessmen (clean-shaven Randy Manroot and goateed Andy Dill) and, shortly thereafter, a uniformed security guard (Alex Leon). Before long, Dill is gobbling Rubio, and Leon is devouring Vox as if the only way to suck cock was to swallow it whole. He provides some of the hottest sucking of the entire film. After a spate of voracious ass-eating and a bit of reciprocity from Rubio and Vox, everyone fires off another load, but Leon's Old Faithful-like geyser is by far the best.
Again in voice-over, Vox tells us that "all afternoon, new guys kept showing up," and among the most intriguing is a frenetic brunet (Nick Capra) who seems wired from the moment we see him. He goes after Leon first, effortlessly gobbling him down as he busily fingers Vox's hairy hole. In another corner, a young kid with a skateboard, an oversized dick and Daddy fixation (Tommy DeLuca) has zeroed in on Manroot to give him head. The action deftly cross-cuts between the groups as Capra shifts his attention solely to Vox. Clearly at odds with his sexually obsessive nature, Vox's character has (throughout the film) initially resisted each sex act, as if needing to be forced into action in order to get past his guilt barrier. Here, once Capra has penetrated his anxious ass, he lets go but at first fights off the invasion -- and in particular, repeatedly refuses to let Capra kiss him. Ultimately, their fuck is high-voltage stuff, and it's not long before everyone in the place has detonated another round of gloriously messy money shots.
Like a great symphony, the various movements of the film build to a crescendo finale that, of course, centers around Vox. Two late arrivals are added to the mix, a rangy youth with backpack (Marc Sterling, one of the most interesting performers around today) and a married man (Lex Kyler, complete with wedding ring). After another spate of golden showers (all over Vox) and varied oral play, Sterling lies down on one of the toilet partitions and lifts his legs in the air to be rimmed. As Leon's tongue goes to work, Vox rubbers up Sterling and sits on him. Not to be outdone, Leon (arguably the most untrammeled sex-pig present) also rubbers up and enters Vox from behind in a double-penetration that can only be described as dazzling. Eventually, he and Sterling switch places for a second, equally stunning double penetration that culminates in a trio of money shots, each of which is so notable that it is rerun in slow-motion.
Mens Room concludes with Leon pulling Vox into his arms and kissing him tenderly. Tense but almost willing, Vox finally yields and, when Leon whispers, "Don't panic," even manages his first attempt at a smile in the entire film, observing, "Nothing's ever meant to stay the same." Maybe that's why Maestro Gage just gets better and better. Certainly, Mens Room must not be ignored when awards time comes round.
