SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

tdrish Good movie. I'm not knocking it. It's engrossing, it's rich in characters, it's just fun. Do you think we could have done without all the twists? At the time, it was just a sexy shocker, but once you were done watching it, the fun is over. Unless you were going to watch it again with someone else, just to see the shocked look on their face after one crazy twist is revealed after another, it just wasn't anything to write home about. Meaning, if you look back on it, you know you had a great time watching it, but when you look back on it, you can't deny that this is all very silly, very ridiculous, and just goes way too over the top. Story centers around a girl who accuses an older man of sexually assaulting her. From there, it just escalates into insanity, as the movie becomes more and more twisted, revealing more and more unbelievable twists and turns, that it gets to the point where by the time you are expecting the next twist, you're just thinking " GET THE (****) OUT OF HERE!" Bottom line: The movie lives up to its name. I would average this to be a 6.7 star film, I would love to round it off to 7, but certain factors that I cannot specify here, because it would ruin the film for you, I can only say that I am giving it 6 stars, as a few things dragged the rating down for me. ( After you're done watching, you will understand. Ending is satisfying, but....you will understand.)

Benedito Dias Rodrigues Could be better if don't deceive the audience,when all facts are in the table the story drives to right and natural direction,but somehow it changes without noticed by viewers,after half hour another twist,it's a merry-go-round,lost all respect and becomes a joke,interesting but just until page 3...nothing more,the gorgeous girls are a highlights from this mess....just for entertainment only don't take it so seriously!Resume:First watch: 2.000 / How many: 2 / Source: Cable TV-DVD / Rating: 7

Tweekums Sam Lombardo is a councillor at a high school in Blue Bay; a town in southern Florida. He is popular with the students; a little too popular in some cases. His life is turned upside down when one of his pupils, Kelly the daughter of a rich woman Sam had been involved with, accuses him of rape. At first it looks as though she has made up the allegation as revenge for him rejecting her advances but when a second girl, Suzie, makes a very similar accusation Sam is arrested and it goes to trial. As the trial proceeds it becomes apparent that the two girls had been colluding and Lombardo is cleared. It isn't long before his lawyer has extracted a multi-million dollar settlement. Shortly after we get the first major twist of the film; it emerges that Sam, Kelly and Suzie had planned everything to get the money. They will have to be careful though as police officer Ray Duquette is sure he knows what they have done and is determined to prove it. As the tension rises tempers fray and it isn't long before somebody is dead and it looks like others may follow before the end credits.This film is best known for the threesome involving Matt Dillon, Neve Campbell and Denise Richards; this is a pity as the film is far more than that one scene… in fact anybody watching for raunchy content is likely to be disappointed as it is fairly tame by modern standards. However people looking for a solid thriller with plenty of twists and turns is likely to be pleasantly surprised. Once the trial is over we get the first major twist but there are plenty of others before the story is over. Twists often seem forced but these worked and should keep the viewer guessing until the very end. The cast do an impressive job; Matt Dillon is perfect as Lombardo, making the character suspicious enough that we wonder about his guilt without making us certain of it. Twenty-somethings Neve Campbell and Denise Richards are suitably sexy as the eighteen year old temptresses Suzie and Kelly. Kevin Bacon is solid enough as Ray Duquette but characters who are meant to be good as often not as interesting as those who are obviously bad. Bill Murray is also a lot of fun as Lombardo's dubious lawyer. Overall this is a lot of fun; don't be put off by its reputation; it isn't all that sleazy.

John Doe This movie was really good, this is one of those 'who done it?' type of films that pays off really well. Both Neve Campbell and Deniese Richards play their parts extremely well, (although I think a College would have been better then a High School as both lead actresses were in their early and mid 20's when this was made) although Denise Richards steals the show lol. Matt Dillion plays a very good role too as Sam Lombardo. There are three sequels to Wild Things, but don't bother with any of them as they are all terrible. Wild Things has more plot twists and brain turners then a twisted pretzel (with cheese!) If you like films that make you think then you will like Wild Things. Oh, and be sure to get the Region 1 Unrated DVD, because it has a Japanese audio language track, which is awesome. I give Wild Things a 8/10.
