Wonderful Movie

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Compared to this, Showgirls is a Oscar winning masterpiece. Nothing, absolutely nothing, in this movie is even decent. The plot, the acting, the camera work is all horribly wrong. The only reason to watch this is you want to take tips of how not to make a bad movie.

145 minutes of soft core porn you didn't know you needed.Yes, the acting is as non existent as the story, but you are not tuning in for either.You want to see hot chicks making out with each other and with guys too.The woman who stars in this also wrote and directed it. Only I bet you never heard of her. I sure didn't.She's got a smoking body with a long in the tooth face that sort of ruins the titillation.I'm not sure i this was ever released theatrically or went right to Cinemax After Dark, but it appears to be shot digitally so the harsh face is really harsh.But the smoking body is really smoking.The movie is a train wreck, but no more than the original Showgirls! In some ways it's better because it doesn't appear to take itself seriously. It's more of a showcase for the butterface Jerry Lewis of strippers. actor, director, producer, writer.

In this God awful movie that nobody, and I mean NOBODY asked for, we continue the story where Showgirls left off in 1995...or do we? No, in fact, this is an entirely different movie then Showgirls. Were lacking most of the cast of the original, although there are a few returning faces from the first film. Glenn Plummer makes his second attempt here, as well as Rena herself, who wrote and starred in this piece of rubbish. I mean, do we dare even call this a movie? If it is, we are certainly dealing with a budget so low, that we can't even afford to get a production crew in here that knew what they were doing. Too much lighting, bad acting, poor directing, annoying choppy fade in and out scenes. Bad accents. Bad script. TOO LONG OF A MOVIE! I can't think of anything good to say about this. That's why I'm giving it such a low rating. Lacks humor, lacks emotional and character depth. I could go on and on, but you get the point, let's move on to our story: Penny wants to pursue her dream of becoming a stripper/ dancer, and will stop at nothing to make sure her dreams come true. That's pretty much it. The rest of this film is pure filler, which include a girl on girl action scene in the pool, a fake pillow fight, and bad cat fights. Very uninteresting film. And it's not so much that we are making a bad sequel here, but what I really cannot understand is why we are making sequels to movies that bombed, not to mention sixteen years after it bombed. Well, I suppose there is a few good things I can say about it, at least we avoided the dreaded NC-17 rating on this one, as it has about 99 percent less nudity then Paul Verhoevens version of Showgirls. ( He directed better films...Robocop, Starship Troopers, and Spetters) Maybe they thought with this movie, less nudity, and more crap would make a better film. Sorry, team, but it didn't. And to think this was released in theatres? It should have been Direct to Video. Actually, it was so bad, it should have just gone direct to toilet.

I really don't think we needed a sequel to the awful Showgirls almost 20 years after the fact. Imagine Showgirls horrible acting and nonsense plot only even worse, along with a home camcorder and no budget for effects or proper editing. The video is horrible, the sound is horrible, it doesn't even have the hint of sensuality that Showgirls 1 failed to ultimately deliver. The only redeeming feature of this film is Rena Riffel looks just as good as she did back then, possibly even better. If this had been a little campier it could have gone into cult status. As such its just a really bad amateur film the world never needed. If you need a T&A fix there's better movies, not the least of which is the unrated Showgirls.
