Kristen Bjorn is all about muscle hunks. Gorgeous European men who love two things by the looks of it - pumping iron and sucking cock. Featuring 100% exclusive men and content, there are men here you've probably never seen before and most likely will never see anywhere else. Kristen Bjorn boasts a fairly large library of video as well as digital
stills. The site says they add several updates weekly, however since there are no dates on the tour, it's hard to know exactly how many. They also offer exclusive content, model profiles and pics from all their films.
The member srea of Kristen Bjorn is almost identical to the tour. The menu runs across the page near the top and takes us to Model Profiles, Video Clips, Theater, Store, and Galleries. You can also get to the Kristen Bjorn Blog or apply to be a model yourself. Beneath the menu is a preview of the latest DVD from Kristen Bjorn Films. Next are the latest two videos added, although there is no indication of when they are added to the site. A 640x480 embedded flash preview is available for each update, however these are at a low quality and soit's much better to click a link to get to the scenes. Keep scrolling to get to one more recent video update, a link to the latest Models Profiles as well as all others. There are thumbnail links to Model Digital Still Galleries, Group Model Layouts, and Porn Star Interviews - of which there is only 1 at the time of this review. All menu options are available at the bottom of each page, as well. There are no ads inside Kristen Bjorn aside from the ones for the DVDs.
There are currently 214 videos available at Kristen Bjorn. Most are clips taken from full length features, and yet others seem to be short full length features themselves. On each video page you have two streaming options, both in Flash and shown at 640x480 with bitrates of around 700kbps and 300kbps. They open in a separate window. The higher bitrate videos are of a good clear quality and good sound. There is also a downloadable WMV version of each video, shown at 640x480 with a bitrate of just over 1100k. These look pretty good, but they do use DRM, so they may not play after your membership has expired. You may download each video in a lower quality in an iPod/iPhone format called M4V.
In order to navigate from one movie page to another you must go back to the "All Video Clips" collection. There are some pretty erotic moments in these videos, as well as some moments that didn't really catch my interest. You will have to choose for yourself which moments these might be. The Behind The Scenes Videos I found to be quite amusing and interesting.
Kristen Bjorn currently boasts 351 photo galleries, with each gallery containing from 19-25 good quality digital stills. Each pic is 512x768 but is scaled to 288x433 in the Flash gallery. In order to view the pics at their original size you must right click and "save as". The pics have a "glossy" effect to them like most professional European photography. There are watermarks at the top and bottom of each still, but they do not interfere with the action. The subject matter of the images varies from scene to scene and model to model. The solo scenes are mostly hunks posing and flexing. The more hardcore scenes capture some intense moments of lust, however they are not as hardcore as the video clips. Navigating from one still gallery to another is fairly simple via a drop down menu at the top right of the page.
As the men on Kristen Bjron are all pretty hunky and well-muscled, there are moments where things get pretty hot. Some men are nicely well-hung, while others aren't as well endowed but are still muscular and mouthwatering - and often uncut. All have a sexy European look to them, however, I didn't see a lot of body hair. As one might expect from European men, passion was not lacking in any of the videos that I viewed. All hunks were horny and looked great getting off.
Kristen Bjorn offers a blog that is updated on a regular basis so you can keep up on the latest site news and models.
For those who can appreciate hunky muscled European men, Kristen Bjorn will turn your crank. While there are a large amount of videos to view, the fact that the only downloadable WMV videos have DRM in place is concerning. However, the higher quality streaming Flash videos are quite nice and clear and there are lower quality downloadable M4Vs available, as well.The pics are good quality, however I wish the pic sets were larger. Kristen Bjorn is probably not for everyone, but for those who adore beefcake Euro hunks, you're going to like this site!
