adonis98-743-186503 Novelist Catherine Tramell is once again in trouble with the law, and Scotland Yard appoints psychiatrist Dr. Michael Glass to evaluate her. Though, like Detective Nick Curran before him, Glass is entranced by Tramell and lured into a seductive game. I love the original Basic Instict cause it was a sharp and terrific thriller but Basic Instict 2 is a big disgrace to fans of the original. The acting and the dialogue is horrendous also except David Thewlis who tries a little bit everyone else has the emotion of a robot and even Sharon Stone tries way much to get back into the shoes of Tramell and she fails to deliver. I knew that the film was going to be awful just from that opening scene. Basic Instict 2 is a sequel that no one asked and should have never been made in the first place. (0/10)

Romeo Garcia When you don't have the original protagonist,director,writer,producer and score maestro you know that the movie is going to sucks (to say least) and thats exactly what this movie is SUCKS!.You can't see that this movie was made because the huge ego of Sharon Stone simple like that.At least a couple of this kind of movies came out in the lapse of this movie and the original (14 years)and some of them was very good.But in the case of this movie this is not case Don't get me wrong the movie have a great cast (David Thewlis,Charlotte Rampling,David Morrisey)the simply don't have any surprises and in the begging of the second act you can guess how is going to end.Don't waste you time they are a lot of better thrillers out there the only thing you gonna see is the decline of a great actress and a movie made it because of she ego.

AaronCapenBanner Sharon Stone returns in her signature role as novelist Catherine Tramell, who is now living in London, and becomes the center of attention after being in a car with her football player boyfriend when it crashes into the river, drowning him. Police discover that he died of a drug overdose first, so Catherine is arrested and ordered to undergo therapy with Dr. Michael Glass(David Morrissey) who, like Nick Curran before him, is seduced by her brazen sexuality, and begins a torrid affair, despite warnings from his detective friend Roy Washburn(David Thewlis) and more murders piling up. Is Catherine guilty? Belated sequel, now directed by Michael Caton Jones, has Sharon Stone returning most convincingly as super-sexy Catherine Tramell, but otherwise this mystery is cold and unsatisfying, though not as dreadful as its reputation would lead you to believe. Still not as memorable as the first, which may be its biggest problem(along with the unexplained absence of Michael Douglas as Nick Curran).

neighborlee First off, I did not see BI1, nor do I 'need' to, because either a movie movies me, or it does not. THis did, to the extent that I kept watching, though I was getting tired as it was after midnight.When I saw the very LOW score of 4 or such from some reviewers here, and also saw that they didn't 'get' the ending, I knew I had to chime in immediately.The ending , which I won't divulge, may not have the twisting involvement of a Sherlock Holmes, but it's intriguing enough to have made me wish for #3 to see about getting This scheming, cold , but brilliant writer her just rewards . That's how great of a job Sharon Stone did in this, and the supporting cast and crew while new to me, I felt did a completely adequate job of sinking my attention further and further into the tawdry, deceptive and thrilling plot's development.When we talk about a thriller, we can't help but give respect to Alfred HitchCock's 'The Birds', and while BI2 did most certainly not rise to that occasion ( in part due to the content/script) and there was a lot to rise TO,- it most certainly brought it right to the BRINK of it, with great character allure and thought provoking twists and turns throughout it.If you are looking for something to watch late at night and be on edge for those few hours, wondering if a murderer would go free, victims would be saved and who really did it and why, then this movie is certainly worth your time.
