Showgirls (Fully Exposed Edition)
Seduction, passion and power struggles unfold when the creators of Basic Instinct, director Paul Verhoeven (Starship Troopers) and screenwriter Joe Eszterhas (Original Sin) blow the lid off the seemingly glamorous world of Las Vegas show dancing to create one of the most controversial and shockingfilms of all time. Nomi Malone (Elizabeth Berkley) has what it takes to make it as a Las Vegas show girl what she doesn't have is a way in. To survive, she accepts the only job available: lap dancing at a seedy club. And when she meets Cristal (Gina Gershon), Vegas' reigning show girl, Nomi wants everything she has including her boyfriend (Kyle MacLachlan). And as Nomi dives deeper into the world she so desperately desires, a rivalry between the two women heats up. The battle for the spotlight becomes so fiercely competitive that it drives Nomi to desperate lengths and devious heights for fame in Sin City. more

Dreadful!
Poor writing and bad acting can certainly make for an enjoyable camp romp. Unfortunately, this movie did not manage to achieve that level for me. For the most part, I found the lead female character ("Nomi") to be unappealing, and disagreeable, which made it impossible to care very much about...

So bad that its good
Showgirls was never going to win any Academy Awards and I give Elizabeth Berkley credit for overcoming this film and going on to do good work on CSI:Miami and in other movies.But Showgirls is a scorching hot mess telling the story of Nomi Malone, a down-on-her-luck, ill-bred, poorly educated girl...

Not for everyone
(written by Leigh's wife): I was very glad to see that this was the same version that I wanted; I originally had a VHS copy of the "unrated" version. Everything was as I remembered it.I will admit that this movie is not for everyone. I'm hard put to say why I like it - but I do. It's erotic,...

The Elizabeth Berkley School of Arm Flinging Acting
This movie is now promoted as being "camp" but not so when it debuted. Even Gina Gershon thought the script was camp, only realizing it wasn't shortly after filming started. Bless her professional heart for not quiting. Liz Berkley is not only an awful actress but a horrible dancer. I lost count...

OMFG! How did I miss this? ONE OF THE GREAT FILMS OF THE 90'S!!!
The editing in this thing is spectacular!!! Here it is! Trash as high art, and here I was writing Paul Verhoven off after a string of irritating Hollywood bores (basically everything after 'Robocop.') I never bothered with 'Showgirls,' for years, but this is Directorial Genius - all the more...

A Cult Classic
Showgirls is an excellent cult film. Its filled with terrible dialogue delivered by actors in performances that they'd surely rather forget. Paul Verhoeven - usually a top notch director - fails spectacularly with his fourteenth film and the script by Joe "I Don't Know Anything About Women"...

more than expected
i bought this as a gift for a friend of mine - and boy were they excited. Where else can you find a vinyl poster of Elizabeth Berkley from the waist up, nude, with suction cup pasties to play pin the pasty on the showgirl?! now, i'm not saying this is the best movie made - but for a fan, or for...
