Sliver Reviews

Honestly, after her breakthrough with ‘Basic Instinct’, except for ‘Casino’ which was quite brilliant, did Sharon Stone ever do anything really amazing? Not really, in my opinion. The main issue, aside the fact that she is in fact not a really great actress, is that she usually makes some poor choices concerning her movie projects. Indeed, after her massive 90’s classic, she made this flick which was yet another steamy erotic thriller also written by Joe Eszterhas who was one of the most successful writers at the time in Hollywood. On one hand, it was actually rather smart from her to do this movie since it allowed her to surf on her newfound popularity but, on the other hand, the movie was not really good and it actually damaged her career preventing her to be taken actually as a serious actress instead of a good looking chick who doesn’t mind to get naked in front of the camera. Anyway, the whole thing is a rather preposterous thriller with some gratuitous sex scenes and it was actually watchable but still utterfly forgettable. To conclude, I have seen worse but I don’t think it is really worth a look, except if you didn’t get enough of seeing Sharon Stone having sex with some random guy.
