The greatest movie ever!

Perfectly adorable

Good start, but then it gets ruined

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The same wealthy, sexy and perverse woman from the first installment is accused of murdering her partner and as a result, she starts visiting and courting at the same time, a young psychologist with a troubled past of his own. He tries to understand her peculiar character but the more he gets involved, the more he seems attracted to her in a seduction game which is apparently out of his league. As more and more characters around them continue to die without any traces, he gets into a lot of trouble as the protagonist of the first movie, ending up in a very unexpected position.This movie tries to continue the first movie's story, using the same but much older woman antagonist but unfortunately is not able to be on par with it. Unlike its predecessor, this one does not feature as much action. On the contrary, it is slow paced and sometimes dull, focusing much more on the mystery than on the action. This is regrettable because it reduces the excitement this kind of movie could offer, making it less appealing. It's a good movie with good actors and a good plot but it falls behind in terms of action.

it is very easy and funny and cool to criticize this film. first support - the comparison with the original. than - the expectations. too high. in fact, it is a mistake to make a second part . but this mistake could be reduced if you ignore the original as standard. if you do, you have a thriller. not great but decent. chaotic and predictable but the presence of Sharon Stone and Charlotte Rampling are a reasonable compensation. so, it is an error to define it as trash. it is a decent thriller, not the best but far to be the worst, it is not Paul Verhoeven but a nice try to recreate his universe. so, Basic Instinct 2. and this is all.

Basic Instinct 2 (2006): Dir: Michael Caton-Jones / Cast: Sharon Stone, David Morrissey, David Thewlis, Charlotte Rampling, Hugh Dancy: Manipulative and morbid thriller that does pretty much what the original film did and that is mess with one's mind and hormones. It also tells the same bloody story. Sex and murder mystery writer Catherine Tramell is suspected of murder again and David Morrissey plays a police psychiatrist whom is sucked into her mind screw. People die horrible deaths while Tramell is suspected yet not witnessed. The ending is an bigger kick in the ass than the original. Directed by Michael Caton-Jones who previously made another trash film that bares certain similarities in The Jackal. Morrissey is basically reciting Michael Douglas only he seems to get screwed over worse. Sharon Stone as Tramell can still turn on the heat but to a far lesser degree here. She is running the same drill manipulating while sitting pretty when fingers are pointed in her direction. David Thewlis plays an interrogation officer who originally arrests Tramell only to be killed in the overly stupid climax. Charlotte Rampling is unfortunately flat as someone set to take Morrissey off the case. While the original film has its supporters, its twist ending leaves much to be desired. With that said, it is still ahead of the sequel in creativity. This all winds down to a ninety minute mind rape. Score: 2 / 10

Murder writer Catherine Tramell (Sharon Stone) is living in London. After crashing her car, football star Kevin Franks in the passenger seat is killed. The police finds various drugs in his system and detective Roy Washburn (David Thewlis) is bent on locking her up. Police psychologist Dr. Michael Glass (David Morrissey) interviews her. Adam Towers (Hugh Dancy) is dating his ex-wife Denise Glass (Indira Varma) and wants to write about Tramell. Adam is also threatening to write about a former patient of Glass who killed his pregnant girlfriend. Milena Gardosh (Charlotte Rampling) is Glass's colleague. Glass diagnose Tramell as being addicted to risk, but she is released after a key witness is found to be unreliable.It opens up pretty well. There are great actors around. The police investigation holds good possibilities. Sharon Sone and David Morrissey just don't have enough intensity. His character is too lifeless. I would prefer the movie stay locked with David Thewlis keeping the same dynamics as the original. A police investigation is much more exciting. All the sitting around and talking isn't that compelling. At least the original had Stone crossing her legs and had more fun with the material. This doesn't work as a mystery or as a thriller or anything else. It ends with a very annoying sequence where it becomes really stupid what Glass does.
