Ensofter Overrated and overhyped

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

RavenGlamDVDCollector Just another one of my laments about titles unavailable on DVD. I've been searching six years and only found a snippet on the Net which fortunately was the shower scene, so I am thankful for that, Monique is really nice-looking with clothes, but even better without. But where is the full movie? I see a VHS is available on Amazon but I need a DVD. So, people, I saw it donkey years ago maybe twice, but can't remember the story-line like your other reviewers, who must obviously have the VHS. I'm just here to beg the powers-that-be to release this wonderful performance by Monique on DVD or a pre-recorded memory card or make it available for downloading, because this great thing got stuck in my mind, or at least the swaying breasts did, and I have to see it again on my big screen.

mrmichaeltroper In my eyes, silk 2 provided an outstandingly fun watch. I was thoroughly absorbed in the plot from start to finish. Set in Hawaii, Silk is the policewoman who singlehandedly takes on a ring of criminals cashing in via art-insurance/black-market scandal.The illustrious criminal 'Mr Gish,' whose smooth talking antics are played to a tee by Jan Merlin, gets me every time.But he doesn't stand a chance. Out to get him is Jenny 'Silk' Sleighton, a cop who has had more than her dose of tough times recently (and not without the aid of her compatriots the beautiful Holly and handsome Tony) who stand up and fight for whats right in this underworld of lies and fraudulent art-bandits.All I needed, in order to know that I was going to enjoy this movie, was to see silk in the very beginning, determined to save a group of innocent people from terrorists holding them under siege.Why? because (in Silk's words): 'crime doesn't pay'!With grit determination we see Silk make a run for it past the baddies, smash the window and basically go in and shoot them all.That is why I found this movie so absorbing and great to watch from the very outset. She was like watching an elastic cat doing gymnastics and shooting all the baddies; Silk is a legend! But when her partner can no longer follow the case of an old 'pal' (as a favor) any longer, silk takes over and it is non-stop actions-ville. We see explosions, car chases, and humor as well (the fun tourists - "Whats green and swims around in water"?) But most importantly, there is a meaningful plot; someone is stealing real artworks and destroying them for the insurance/black-market value and then lying to the public about the fraudulent copies. I was positively glued to my seat! Tony as a man with the courage to 'speak up' is introduced to Silk in a way where they can both join forces and get to the bottom of things.So, if you like a movie that's worth a few laughs, hasn't an over-emphasis on realistically conveyed editing and with dialogue and stunts that leave you laughing until your shoelaces untie themselves, this is for you! Sit down with a bowl of popcorn or whatever you like and watch genius flash by your very eyes.

gridoon2018 "Silk 2" replaces Cec Verrell with Monique Gabrielle in the title role. This has both its advantages and its disadvantages: Monique lack's Cec's muscle tone, her voice is a bit too soft to be taken seriously in such hardcore lines as "Silk, what do you think you're doing?" - "What needs to be done!", and she is very obviously doubled for many of her stunts (even for diving off a boat!). But she IS gorgeous, she does have some moves, and, in the film's most memorable sequence, she takes a shower, complete with full-frontal nudity, and then, wearing only a barely-tied bathrobe, she fights a home intruder, kicking him all around the place while her breasts are bouncing up and down! The whole thing doesn't last more than a minute or two, however. Anyway, the film has some of the trademark Cirio H. Santiago amateurishness (check out that laughably fake head that gets shot in the opening scene!), but at least its plot is more coherent than the one of its predecessor. In fact, I thought the villain had a pretty neat plan and I almost wished he could get away with it! ** out of 4.

pumaye This movie was really bad: Monique Gabrielle is my favorite scream queen of all times (one of my favorite women on the screen, in fact), but her too brief shower scene is not enough to heaten up a terribly boring actioneer, too slow and too talky for his own good.Monique looks beautiful as always and she tries hard to be an actress (she has a very sexy voice), but it is not good enough to be a tough cop as she should be in this movie.All in all, a waste of time from start to finish
