Basic Instinct 2 (DVD)


basic-instinct-2 Those who mentioned that Sharon Stone was too old for this film need to get their eyes checked. At 49 years of age, Sharon Stone has aged gracefully. Sure she had some plastic surgery done, but she still looks incredibly hot for being practically twice my age.

I looked over the reviews when this film first hit the box office and I was suprised at how many people actually trashed this film. Most critics began bashing it even before it was released. After watching the film, I will say the movie was unfairly criticized.

The acting was done very well. Stone was amazing. She was sexy, seductive, and manipulative. She played her role exactly as she was suppose to. I thought she was more lustful and evil in this film than she was in the first. I loved it. I dont understand why many people thought her acting was poorly done.

The screenplay was also about as twisted as the original. I was trying to figure out who killed who, and I was still a bit lost at the end of it all. I thought it was great. I enjoy watching films where I am left trying to sort things out on my own.

Overall the film was a good one. It seems that many people are bashing this film just because it exists. Get over it already. Sharon Stone still has it and doesn’t need Michael Douglas to make a great movie. Grab your popcorn, your lover, and enjoy the show!

Synopsis:

Novelist Catherine Tramell is once again in trouble with the law, and Scotland Yard appoints psychiatrist Dr. Michael Glassto evaluate her. Though, like Detective Nick Curran before him, Glass is entranced by Tramell and lured into a seductive game.
