Rewatched. Greasy noir with absurd plot works as pure entertainment thanks to Verhoven's brash style and Stone's pitch-perfect turn as a psychopathic storyteller. What's interesting about this film is how unlikably pedestrian the male cops are - this is mostly a film about 3 really fucked up women... and it might have been a better film if Eszterhas had fleshed out the strange world they inhabit a bit more and maybe juxtaposed it with the male-dominated police procedural.

If Hitchcock was still alive in the 90s his movies would probably look a lot like this one. Kinda loved it, very over the top, and it has great performances, a silly twisty script and some marvelous directing from Verhoeven.

Very watchable, hyper sexual, sometimes even funny. Quite dated at times. From that 90s school of twisting thrillers that explain everything in the last ten minutes... with just a wink of ambiguity.

I think it would be easy to dismiss this is as the epitome of a cheesy erotic thriller, but I think that really sells it short. There are so many winks and nods about the tropes on display, it's really just another example of Verhoeven's satire that is often (perhaps intentionally) taken at face value.

Hooray for the most unlikeable protagonist since Purple Rain. Here we have Michael Douglas as a homophobic rapist who gets along with his misogynist co-workers except when he's slamming them into walls. Which he also does to the women in his life. Who seem to like him, despite EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM. Half a point to Sharon Stone, who does her steely best, and another half-point for sheer absurdity, but this movie has a lot of nerve being famous when it's ultimately a mystery with one suspect.
