Too much of everything

The Worst Film Ever

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

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.

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.)

Perversity is subversion. A subversion can be seen as something which is an offence, to something else. However, what makes matters very curious is when a force of nature is meant to be shielded from the offence.A shield is a protection: one force is a shielded reality, another force is an offence, or a weapon.The shielded reality isn't responsible for itself. The shielded reality is dependent. The weapon is obviously not the source of the dependence, and yet that's the only other reality. All that exists is the dependency, and the weapon.The weapon is anti-dependence. The dependence is anti-weapon. Anti-dependence is anti-interaction. The dependence is interaction. Anti-interaction is the prevention of interaction. The interaction is the prevention of anti-interaction.The prevention of interaction, is the creation of annihilation. The prevention of anti-interaction is the creation of interaction - the weapon is the creator of no interaction, the interaction is the creator of interaction.The interaction creates itself. The weapon to interaction creates itself. Interaction is behaviour. Behaviour is self-reliant. The annihilation of behaviour is self-reliant.Self-reliance is the antithesis of interaction - self-reliance is the same as the weapon to interaction and the interaction itself. Behaviour is self-reliance, regardless of anything. It's impossible for behaviour to not represent self-reliance, and yet despite this, in Wild Things it's meant to be a source of wonder and a source of art that self-reliance is shared between interaction and no interactionWild Things is a pathetically miscalculated movie, being almost the epitome of a movie having its own head up its own arse

Hadn't seen this for a very long time so the twists and turns had me going all over again. Watched the longer, import version, which has a bit more sex but more importantly more plot exposition, just to help those twists nicely along. Matt Dillon is as good as I have seen him in anything and the two young women, played by Denise Richards and Neve Campbell are perfect. As a bonus we have a wonderful, underplayed of course, performance from Bill Murray. Looks good with solid cinematography and direction and I was surprised how good the dialogue is. Maybe just a little longer than it should be with a twist too many, but I was thinking that as the film closed and then some craziness during and after main credits had me smiling once more.

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.
