You won't be disappointed!

Very best movie i ever watch

the audience applauded

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Ok, I know that many wouldn't agree with me, but I think that BASIC INSTINCT is one of the worst movies ever made in the last fifty years - especially since it reached a cult status and many, including a friend of mine, love it (!!!). It's one of the many depraved thrillers of the 1990s. Instead of good film making, Paul Verhoeven decided to write a corny and nasty thriller. It resulted in a wild assault on sensibility using many bad words, many violence and including lots and lots of sex scenes with Stone and Douglas. It's easy to say many bad words and put many sex scenes in a movie, but this ruined the movie, since the writing was absent and was, I think, written by a turtle. And the movie was supposed to be great? NO WAY IN HELL! Verhoeven's mantra was 'in doubt, let Michael Douglas exploding of anger and have sex with Sharon Stone like 5 times in the movie, yeah, 5 TIMES!!!''. Many praised Douglas and Stone's performance, but for me they were very broad and clownish, and mating all the time like crazed dolphins. (a big facepalm follows) There is no subtlety and nothing good in the movie.I think that this movie is adequate only to a stupid and sex-crazed audience that is used to have the brain damaged by these movies. Stay away from this movie like poison, you will be proud of following my advice! Even Harold P. Warren (the director of ''Manos the Hands of Fate'') could have made a better movie given the budget for this movie.

An absolute classic, not only a brilliant thriller and a generally entertaining movie but with that added erotic element. To date we have watched this movie three times, will we be watching it again in the future? absolutely.

Basic Instinct was a huge hit and a cultural phenomenon when it was released and it is easy to see why. The sex scenes are raw and just a few steps away from being a legitimate pornographic film. The violence- although not often- is quite brutal and the blood flows like water. But the film is quite good as a detective story. Michael Douglas was in top form back when this came out and Sharon Stone finally hit the big leagues after playing the famous Catherine Tramell character. Featuring great noir-ish overtone and gorgeous locations Basic Instinct is a winner

A very wealthy, sexy but devious woman is accused of murdering a former partner and the case is being handled by a detective with a troubled past and an insecure present. He becomes attracted to her but as the time pasts, more and more people with connections to her get killed without a clear reason. As the story progresses, the detective is thrown away from side to side, not knowing who to blame or what to believe. He'll have to face his own problems first in order to get to the bottom of the mystery and this will prove to be a big challenge for him.It's a thrilling movie which throws the viewer into the middle of a puzzling killing spree, with an apparently clear murderer which nobody seems capable of convicting. Although it has very good actors and very good story, it evolves slowly and apparently without any direction, maintaining a slow pace for about half of the movie. Its finale is also unexpected and leaves room for controversy but also for a sequel which, in this case, is actually a good thing. It indeed contributes to the mystery but I would have preferred a bit more pace. Despite that, it is a very good movie overall.
