With solo films there is no happy medium. Either the solos are captivating, hot and erotic, or they're inconsistent, bland and might not keep you hard. Citiboyz's Up and Cummin' falls somewhere in between. Out of the 12 solo scenes, many are hot and erotic, but in some of them, the model either depends on his look or his cock to make the scene work. But that's only part of the equation of making an awesome solo scene.
    One noticeable thing missing in many of the scenes is a whole body shot. Viewers see each model's face, chest, legs, cock and balls, but director Steve Shay forgets there are viewers who like to see a nice smooth, or hairy, round twink ass, then fantasize about what they'd like to do it. Showing that, along with some tight twink holes would have made this pretty good film even better.
    Models Cody Love, Ethan Tucker, Johnny Cage (who is the only model to use a vibrator in his smooth ass) and jock type Peter Ray know how to work the camera to their advantage. While they stroke, they're not just stroking because there's a camera in their crotch and they're getting paid for it.
    Enrique Garcia looks like he's fantasizing about someone, exploring his body, and pleasuring himself not just to get off, but to enjoy his body and fantasy until he shoots a well-deserved nut. Low, deep moans and sexy looks seduce viewers, making them wish they were there.
    Up and Cummin' features the debut of Citiboyz model, Devin Moss. His opening scene is hot as he jerks his huge, thick cock, standing up, then laying down. While he's on his back he strokes, licks his fingers, and plays with his hairy hole before stroking his cock with both hands. He moans in delight as he strokes his mighty cock in a frenzied pace leading to a huge nut. The end of his scene is kind of funny as he rests his hands on his knees gasping for air, trying to catch his breath, telling viewers that he got plenty on the floor.
    Some scenes don't stand out as well as others, whether because the model wasn't into it, the set up just didn't work, or the model depended on looks alone to make the scene. One instance is Devon Scott, who beats off in a basement while smoking a cigarette. The cigarette isn't a very sexy prop, and to be honest, when Scott is holding the cigarette, his pose is one I'd expect to see from a drag queen doing Bette Davis. His overly macho stance doesn't look right on him, plus he appears uninterested while stroking his cock. Another is Maryn Steele, who awakes from a nap with a hardon. He uses his lap top to find something good to wank on, but towards this end of this scene, he loses interest and rushes his cumshot.
    Ricky Flores, Tobi Kidd and Tristan Tyler end the film in their own scenes, on a high note. Kidd shows his freaky side by sniffing on a jockstrap to help his fantasy get hotter, while the others use their imaginations. Fans of solos and twinks will definitely love what's Up and Cummin' their way.
    The DVD has cumshots and trailers.
