Movie Reviews of Wild Things
Movie Review: This movie left me saying WOW
Summary: 5 Stars
Wild Things is one of the most draw dropping movies I've ever seen. It had so many twists and turns I had to see it again to believe what I had seen earlier and had just seen again.Matt Dillon plays a high school counsler at a high school in South Florida. He is well respected and loved by the students. He is really loved by his student played by Denise Richards. She likes to him to a very dangerous point. She later accuses of him of rape to the local cop played by Kevin Bacon along with another student played by Neve Campbell. Matt's character is hated by the community and he hires a lawyer played by Bill Murray to defend him. However, the movie turns into a story of sex, murder, and betrayl that like I said earlier will leave you saying "WOW" and have you watching it again.
Denise Richards is absolutely crazy in this movie. I couldn't believe this was the sweet innocent girl I had seen in Starship Troopers. Denise, Matt, and Neve shoot a soft porn in the movie when they do a three some. I couldn't believe it. I think this is the best acting Denise has done in her young carear. She is a beautiful woman and I love her to death. Most guys become a fan of her from watching this.
Kevin Bacon has a nice role in the film. It's one of the better performances of his carear. I hate his character in the movie. He plays a huge role in the film though, and Bacon liked this movie so much he helped produce it.
This is a different kind of role for Matt Dillon in the beginning of the movie. However, by the end he won't disappoint his loyal fans as he returns to the kind of character he typically plays.
I liked Wild Things. It's an insane sexual thriller. If nudity is not your thing I would not get this movie. Nevertheless if you want to see a movie with a ton and twists and turns this is it. Men will really like Denise in the movie. But like I said this movie will leave you saying "WOW" and will have you watching at again.
Movie Review: Neve Campbell steals the show
Summary: 5 Stars
Wild things is an easy movie to love. It tells the story of a Blue-Bay highschool teacher ( Dillon ) who is been accused for rape by two of his female students , spoiled rich kid Kelly ( Richards ) and drug-addict basketcase Suzie ( Campbell ) . Did he really do it ? The script provides more than just a yes-or-no answer during the one and a half hour the movie lasts . It includes a little more than a few plot twists and manages to constantly suprise us and turn things around. In addition to all that this is an extremelly well-made film , surely one of the sexiest movies you'll ever get the chance to see.The love scenes are simply sensational , steamy yet never cheap.All the members of the cast deliver some good perfomances but eventually it's the two girls who stand out. There's a first-class chemistry between Campbell and Richards . Campbell gives her best perfomance yet as confused freak Suzie.She totally crashes her next-girl image and prooves she's capable of playing many different kinds of characters with equally good results.It's actually weird that after that role she disappeared from the spotlight when one might have excpected that then was the time where her star would rise even higher.Denise Richards is really charming as Kelly Van Ryan too.She's one more person i hope i'll be seeing more in movies in years to come.Also great are many of the supporting roles.Bill Murrey , Daphne-Rubin Vega , Theressa Russel and Robert Wagner have all been smartly casted in roles they seem to fit perfectly with their physique . Director McNaughton knows how to handle all the above and achieves to make a movie you won't feel bored with for even a second.Let yourself free to enjoy the guilty pleasures of this film which combines crime , corruption and sexuallity so succesfully you'll have to see it twice to believe it.Movie Review: Underrated Film
Summary: 5 Stars
I feel "Wild Things" is such an underrated film. I have new respect for its Executive Producer, Kevin Bacon, who does a great job in his role. There is no reason to discuss the plot....just watch it from beginning to end and don't miss a single detail. Its writing is strong, and its script is full of surprises every step along the way. Bill Murray steals the show as a two-bit hustling lawyer who hits the big time, and even a good, matter-of-fact performance by Robert Wagner (who we rarely see these days)To all the movies' performers: You made a good choice in taking the roles.
"Wild Things" is a truly unique movie that will keep you entertained, regardless of how many times you see it. The DVD has excellent sound and picture quality. The recurring main theme song instrumental is hauntingly appropriate. A good deviation from the "formula" movies popular in the past decade or so.
Movie Review: Beats "Basic Instinct" by a mile
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best "camp" erotic film in the past quarter century, hands down. Not only is it a guilty pleasure for viewers of lesbian acts, but it also shows Kevin Bacons acting skills, which aren't the highest to begin with (he was also the Executive Producer), which probably explains why we get a gratuitous shot of his penis.
I think the true shinning point of the film, is Bill Murray's off-script banter as Matt Dillons laywer. How they got him into this blatant flesh romp is a total wonderment to myself, but without him, I'd be laughing for ALL the wrong reasons.
If you're looking for beautiful scenery of both Florida, and the nakedness of Denise Richards and a rather good looking for her age Theresa Russell, then you will never miss with this over-the-top indulgence in camp film making history.
A true gem that beats "Basic Instinct"...hands down!
Movie Review: Twists and Shouts
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're a fan of Denise Richards you will not be disappointed. If you are a thriller fan, you will be very happy ,albeit somewhat confused by the end of this quasi-film noir delight. It twists and turns you around until you are giddy. You get that "wait a minute did....?" feeling every ten minutes or so and it just keeps delivering the surprises with a punch and humor rarely found in movies produced these days . The performances are all very good . A highlight is a brilliant comic turn by Bill Murray.It seems to never end right into the credits. Yes there is nudity and foul language.But at least it is within a structure that makes it all very "right". The old style b-movie is really honored here .You will hit the scan or chapter button over and over again in this gem .
