Rating:  - Are you a pro? No, I'm an amateur
Basic Instinct is a basic geometric triangle, and while, as in basic math, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the two adjacent sides, all of the sides are important, and basically, with Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone, and Jeanne Triplehorn, you can't lose.
Jeanne Triplehorn is from Oklahoma. She has been described as having an incredibly open face and a devastating glare. Her father, Tom Triplehorn, played guitar for Gary & the Pacemakers on such hits ... Read More
Rating: - A masterpiece that gets better with age
BASIC INSTINCT is a masterpiece of human behavior and frailty that could never be made now in these days of extreme political correctness. It pulls no punches in portraying the characters in harsh reality, without remorse or apologies for their flaws.

My only gripe.
Couldn't they have found a better leading man than Douglas?
Who wants to look at his saggy old man body?
That minor conplaint aside, ... Read More
Rating: - The directors cut Generates Heat!
For the few extra minutes of footage, and the bonus features (to see Stone's real audition is worth it alone, it had to be her) this is worth it. The movie is still engaging after all these years, it's a mighty fine erotic thriller. The Directors Cut generates even more heat! Whew...
