Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Brilliant Fiorentino
Review: This woman has amazing acting chops like liquid emotion morphing from greed to anger, to passion, to dispassionate calculation. Her performance alone is worth watching the movie. It goes against the grain and was denied hollywood success. There is no room in Hollywood for a strong, sexual woman unless she is a hooker with a heart of gold or dies an excruciating death at the hands of the "hero". If you watch "Last Seduction", you will see great actress with the skill to pull off wit, razor quips and heat in a highly entertaining although unbelievable plot.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Last Seduction was shot full-frame!
Review: To the reviewer who wrote "Buyer Beware," this film was shot for HBO -- in the full-frame format. Hence, no widescreen on the DVD. The way it looks on Artisan's DVD is the way it's supposed to look. Full-screen does NOT always mean pan-and-scan!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: love to hate...
Review: what a great movie... one of the most amazing film noirs out there... Linda Fiorentino is killer in this movie.. sadly most of the time she is often miscasted in movies.

This is the role of a life time and one of the few roles that people would be cheering for the evil guys.. girl in this case...
She is so cool in this movie.. the good guys are just plain stupid.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fiorentino is One Clever Dame!
Review: While considered modern noir the film is heavy on plot twists and it has one of the meanest femme fatales in movie history. Linda Fiorentino gives the performance of a lifetime and is a joy to watch, but, to my surprise, the supporting cast was also good, especially Bill Pulman. Nicely directed with a great script and some unexpected plot twists. But the backbone of the film is Linda Fiorentino, she is the ultimate bad-girl. This film became a cult hit on cable. From a scale of 1-10 I give this film an 8!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Linda Fiorentino at her best -- enough said
Review: You've all seen her as the morgue doctor in "Men in Black", but few of you know her other work. Her screen presence is mainly based on intelligence rather than looks, unlike almost anyone else you can name (though she is quite gorgeous). She thus tends to have starring roles in independent films, since she couldn't play an airhead sidekick if her life depended on it. In her opening scenes in this topnotch film noir, she blows away Alec Baldwin's ballbuster role in "Glengarry Glen Ross" -- and that's just for starters. If you think Al Pacino was diabolical in "The Devil's Advocate", wait until you see this performance. Best of all, no matter how jaded you feel, this movie will shock you, probably several times -- and I for one was pleased to know that I could still be shocked.
