Showgirls


IMDB
First time viewed: No
Current Release: No
Watched With: Jordan, Amberly, Tyler, Josh

Speaking of trash.

I think this film is overlooked as one of the greatest over produced pieces of trash exploitation ever made. It looks immaculate. The script is terrible and the acting is over the top and I love it. No one does exploitation with such classiness as Paul Verhoeven. Although class is not a word anyone would associate with this film.

Elizabeth Berkley's character is just SO angry all the time. and she doesn't have an arc or learn anything by the end of the film. The "dancing" is pretty funny too. There are a lot of tits though so I don't know why anyone can complain. Never before have shuch explicit sexual acts been so immaculately lit and edited and directed.

A great silly holiday film. I like this far more than Flashdance or Burlesque.
