Review of Showgirls (1995) by Jason J — 21 May 2011
Universally derided by both critics and viewers alike and with good reason as well. It's one of the worst movies I've had the mispleasure of watching! This movie is an insult to the viewing audience.
The one good thing I can say about this movie is it's full of wonderful sets and excellent costumes but unfortunately, this is all wasted effort put towards shooting what may be the worst script ever written fleshed out by truly awful performances by both Elizabeth Berkley and Kyle McLachlan.
Some people would have you believe this movie is a satire. That's just wishful thinking. I don't believe for a second that the horrible, stilted dialogue and incredibly wooden performances in this movie are intentionally funny, and once the initial shock of how bad this movie actually is wears off, it makes you wonder just why they paid the scriptwriter for this piece of garbage.
You'll be doing yourself a favour by not watching this movie.
