...settles for a downgraded remake of the first film...

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jul 29, 2021

Stone appears to have torn a page from the soap-opera textbook of come-hither acting.

| Original Score: .5/5 | Jan 31, 2021

Glass is clearly meant to be a morally gray doctor...but that ambiguity and Morrissey's lack of sexual chemistry with Stone (who is vacant in her second go at the character) simply drains the life from this whole enterprise.

This film isn't just bad, it's howlingly bad.

| Original Score: F | Nov 20, 2019

Stone is simply awful, replacing the sexy insouciance from the first film with a beady stare that would seem more appropriate coming from a dead codfish than a calculating nympho adept at playing twisted mind games.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 21, 2018

Morrissey gives a good impersonation of a lobotomised Liam Neeson: possibly the only way to play a character dead from the script upwards.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 7, 2018

There are plot developments occurring throughout the picture that have the subtlety of a carnival sideshow, and things never add up sufficiently as an intellectual exercise.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 12, 2017

We actually don't see very much killing at all--except, maybe, that of the careers of Morrissey and Stone.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jan 26, 2014

Silly, shock-pandering lines like that nearly sink the film to Showgirls level.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 23, 2009

In spite of Sharon Stone's hearty encore performance as the ultimate femme fatale, "Basic Instinct 2" falls unbearably flat.

| Original Score: C- | Apr 20, 2009

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 20, 2008

jedan od rijetkih primjera kada je publika pokazala kako, za razliku od Hollywooda, ipak ima pojma o nekim stvarima

| Original Score: 2/10 | Jun 21, 2007

Sadly, nothing following lives up to the prurient promise of this sequence, as the film becomes a monotonously talky, gloomy affair.

| Mar 1, 2007

Poor Sharon Stone. She's still big; it's the erotic thrillers that got small.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 27, 2007

...a script that is so full of cliche's that I actually knew the end of the film 10 minutes before it ended.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 13, 2006

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 3, 2006

This is psychoanalytic fable rewritten as pulp fiction. Perhaps that's why it's so ludicrously entertaining.

| Sep 28, 2006

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 22, 2006

As a stand-alone film, this doesn't work; but viewed through the prism of the original, it offers some twisted, self-conscious pleasures.

| Jun 24, 2006

I won't say I didn't enjoy it; this is the kind of film that begs to be talked back to, that satisfies our highly developed taste for schadenfreude.
