Summary: Edge of your seat Erotic Thriller
Review: This movie keeps you guessing until the end. You never know how it is going to end, it is so unpredictable! Very well done movie with great performances. This is one of my favorite movies beacause of the unpredictable plot and how interesting the movie is. It is different than other movies, that's why it is so great!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Mild Things
Review: Boy has John McNaughton come a long way. The man responsible for the brittle, dour and unrelenting "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer" tries to click commercially with this flaccid "thriller" proving that Hollywood can tame even the darkest imaginations.
A film noir set in a sun drenched Florida town, "Wild Things" is as bleached out as the coastal sand. There's none of the menace, noir ambience and controlled tension he used so effectively in "Henry." Sure, there's a handful of plot twists, but since almost all of them are saved for the last ten minutes they amount to little more than window dressing. That this unconventional kind of anti-climax was intentional makes it all the more weird for a movie targeted at the commercial mainstream. The rest of the film plays like an average made for cable movie. The question is: Didn't the actors read the script? Or the director either? Matt Dillon is clearly coasting. Neve Campbell apparently can't fathom the concept of characterization, and Denise Richards (who has the acting ability of a Barbie Doll and looks like a wax mannequin of herself half the time) gamely attempts to save the film by revealing her true talents. It's all for naught however, and even the histrionics of Theresa Russell can't defibrillate this flat-liner.
Fairly worthless but if you're dying to see Denise Richard's boobs, then by all means, indulge yourself. And oh yes, I almost forgot, you also get to see Kevin Bacon's wild thing, apparently merely to keep the film from being condemned as sexist, and that's the only real mystery in "Wild Things."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic with a very twisted plot!
Review: This sleek and sexy flick was full of suprises. The story line is pretty basic in the beging. High school girls (Richerds)&(Campelle) accuses school consler (Dillon)of rape. When a detective (Bacon) comes to investigate he finds a little more motive than expected! This movie is full of twists and quite well done. Vrey similar to cruel intentions only this goes as far as murder. A awsome movie filled with sex, comedy, action and suspense!
*There is also quite some nudity! Breasts and shocking enough full front and back nudity for Kevin Bacon.Buy this awsome movie!You will most likely not regreat it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: great pair
Review: I heard a lot of great reviews about it, but still never had I imagine that movie would be this great. The scenes are shocking and very tasteful. The casting was done perfectly, there are no other actors that I could think of that would make this movie better. Matt Dillon was great, Neve Campbell was awesome, and Denise Richards was totally sexy. I loved seeing her beautiful set of man handlers.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sex, murder, devious intrique...
Review: ... what more could you want? Keep a close eye on the details and stay through the credits. The soundtrack is excellent, too.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun movie
Review: This was a fun movie with quite a few plot twists and turns (some of which occur as the credits are rolling).

The commentary track is interesting although its a bit distracting because it sounds like they had half the crew participate.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wild Things
Review: I loved Wild Things. I am a big fan of Denise Richards, but the acting was great by all, it is a nice twisy mystery, with some nice steamy love seens. All and all I liked it. I would consider purchasing this video for others.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: PLEASANTLY ENTERTAINING
Review: I did not really know what to expect from this film when I saw it, and of course most other people who have seen it disagree with my assessment that the film was entertaining but mediocre. It was nothing particularly special, especially not the first time. Not being a fan of Matt Dillon, Kevin Bacon, Neve Campbell or Denise Richards, I was perhaps biased from the start, but I watched it without prejudice. The story was original, and the twists of the story are enough to keep a viewer anxiously interested. The second time I watched it, I liked it better and the twists were more gripping the second time for some reason. I have been debating about giving the movie four stars for its originality (keeping the audience guessing), but I am going with three. Not because I think it is a bad movie, but that is just what it deserves in my opinion. I am sure there are those watching with ulterior motives (the action between Campbell and Richards). It is obvious that there will be plenty of double and triple crossing among characters, so the "victor" in the end will be at least somewhat of a surprise, but the mysteries are not so "cloaked" that you could not figure out the end without really thinking about it. An entertaining element, though, is to see the dynamics of trust and breaking trust. Deception is a tricky thing, and it appears some of the players have it mastered.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just good looks?
Review: I will also admit that the only reason that I went to this movie because Denise Richards gets naked. Ok, that is why my friend dragged me to it but I wasn't going to complain. But after sitting there I noticed it was a really great movie. Then after passing out from the threesome in the middle of the movie, the rest of the movie was great as well. I was very shocked by this movie and how much I enjoyed the story. I think anybody who wants a "fun" mystery/suspense type movie will like this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Plot Twists!!!
Review: I really only got this movie for the good looking women. But wow!!! This was really a good movie. Tons of plot twists. Try it out.
