In Jake Cruise’s new site, Cocksure Men, the most notable characteristic is the absence of Mr. Cruise in any of the videos. Instead you'll find attractive, masculine, fit guys in simply staged, well-crafted solo, massage, wrestling and action scenes (some, not surprisingly, without condoms). When the site first launched in 2008 many of the video scenes were duplicates of JakeCruise.com content; however all of the updates since then have been exclusive to Cocksure Men. While the vids sometimes lack visual panache, the site is still a solid source for hot videos.
Tour
Cocksure Men’s mirror tour provides a complete, accurate view of the site’s content. All videos are represented by short preview clips and thumbnail images, and tour-goers can browse the whole roster by date or using a handy “model search” function. Clicking on any of the preview thumbnails or video links leads to a simple sign-up page that’s free of confusing banner ads or deceptive cross-sells.
Navigation
An uncluttered layout and large, clear photo icons make Cocksure Men a breeze to navigate. The videos can be sorted by date added (newest to oldest is the default), rating (each scene has a star rating based on member input) or number of votes (again based on subscribers’ feedback). If you have a favorite model, then you’ll be happy that Cocksure Men has a “model search” function that sorts the videos by performers’ names. We do wish you could search by action type – but the plus-sized photo icons generally make it clear what’s going on in each scene, helping to minimize unnecessary clicking around.
The Men and the Action
The guys of Cocksure Men live up to the site’s name. Without exception, they’re tight-bodied jocks – many with a frat boy vibe – who project a confident but down-to-earth sexiness. Several of the men, for example Brodie Sinclair and Leo Giamani, are well-known performers; many have previously appeared on JakeCruise.com, and others are relative newcomers.
Within its area of focus, Cocksure Men has a nice variety of guys, from corn-fed Midwestern boy Seth Sweet to Asian hottie Clark. Recent updates include a steamy duo pairing Sweet with hunky Dean Phoenix and a solo scene featuring built bad-boy Johnny Walsh. Occasionally, we get to listen in on cameraman / model interviews or banter between performers; otherwise, Cocksure Men doesn’t offer much in the way of model stats.
Given Jake Cruise's penchant for bareback sex, you won't be shocked to learn that some of the action videos depict condomless fucking. The site’s bareback videos are clearly labeled and there is a warning as each starts explaining that the models have all tested as HIV-negative.
Video Details
Cocksure Men is updated twice weekly. The site's 180 videos average 20 minutes in length. All of the site’s video content is available for permanent, DRM-free download.
| Cocksure Men’s videos will stream in Flash format or can be downloaded as Windows Media or Quicktime files. About 60% of the videos are high-definition size, showing in a large 960x540 window, with a bitrate of 2,000 kbps (for Windows Media) or 1100 kbps (for Quicktime). Most of the embedded Flash streams are 750x425 pixels in size. Older videos are slightly smaller, and the Quicktime vids are available only as a series of clips. |
Like much of Jake Cruise’s work, the shooting style of Cocksure Men is
competent and professional, but doesn’t dazzle. The videos are well lit, with carefully captured
shots mixing close-up and medium takes. Despite this variety, however, the editing sometimes lacks
rhythm and the pace can lag. You’ll never miss a cumshot on Cocksure Men, though, even if you
choose to fast forward through the middle of some videos.
Image and Other Content
Almost all Cocksure Men videos are accompanied by galleries of about 75 images. The large, crisp digital photos (which are around 640 x 960 pixels) can be viewed only in your browser using the site’s directional buttons: they cannot be downloaded, not even one at a time.
Summing Up
Cocksure Men may not
be, as it claims, the “cure for the common porn site,” but it it does showcase some uncommonly
hot men in above-average DRM-free videos. Take a look at the tour, and if you think the guys are
sexy, you won't be disappointed with the action inside.
