Review of Basic Instinct (1992) by Mirabella 1 — 06 Feb 2010
BASIC INSTINCT (1992).
Directed by Paul Verhoeven.
Written by Joe Esterhas.
Hot, hotter, HOTTEST!!
This really is one damn fine piece of work (pun definitely intended!).
Sharon Stone gives the performance of her career as one of Hollywood's finest femme fatale creations, Catherine Trammel, best-selling novellist, dare-devil thrill-seeker & sex goddess.
Michael Douglas is the perfect foil for what is essentially HER picture. He plays the slightly dim-witted, Neanderthal object of 'desire du jour' with simplistic ease. One almost suspects that he has not had to extend himself too far!
Unmissable.
****4 out of 5 stars****.
