Striptease (1996)

Been to the circus lately?
PT Barnum said it best, well... you know what he said, and this movie says it from start to finish; proof? -you watched it! -not because you wanted to fulfill your hungry, starving intellect ( save the denial speech ) but to satisfy your lustful libido. -there, I said it; you just wanted to see Demi's new boobs!
Once all you 'high-and-mightys' out there get past that BS facade you've dragged throughout the reviews, you can get honest for a change and admit you got your moneys worth in eye-candy... and she was well worth whatever time and money was spent!
If seeing Demi as beautifully displayed as you heard she'd be, then I highly recommend buying and watching this movie.
Lets face it; Howard Hughes didn't profit in mad money selling the sensational hit THE OUTLAW to the public because it was a standard production of a western, but because of the advertised [[ASIN:B000299TII The Outlaw]]specially made bra to be worn and displayed by Jane Russell!

Demi: 10, everything else: 3
I just watched Striptease last night. Demi looked amazing! I don't care how she got that way but her body was incredible. The dance sequences were great and using the Eurythmics/Annie Lennox songs was a perfect choice. As for the movie itself it was just an excuse to showcase Demi - the plot, characters, everything was just muddled and confused. Ving Rhames' character was pretty cool though - very Marcellus Wallace-lite. All in all this movie is okay if you watch it while having a few margaritas!

Take it off, take it all off *yawn*
I watched this movie not too long ago after having not seen it in many years. I found the story to be plausible, but the bad acting and choppy story flow left much to be desired. From what I understand, this movie was originally set as a drama, but it was turned into comedy for the sake of mass appeal. If it was a drama it would have made a little more sense.

Demi Moore plays Erin, a single mom who is looking to make ends meet and keep custody of her daughter. Like a lot of desperate women with no education or skills, she turns to the pole. She's a likeable gal despite the sleaze and desperation a job and enviornment like this constitutes, and is completely drug free as well. (Now we're talking fiction!) Burt Reynolds, in the only true comic relief in this movie, is a senator who's a little off his meds one day when he sees Erin dancing and becomes obsessed with her, providing the one and only plot movement to see what will happen once they see each other again. And there's some crime or something that they witness in between and there's a twist in it. Or something.

THis was a vehicle for showing us Demi's buff and tumble body. I admit, I hope I will look like her at age 40, let alone after one, let alone after THREE children. And perhaps she wanted to make us a little jealous, but now I have every reason to be jealous since she's married to Ashton Kutcher 15 years her junior. Still, it's a weak movie. If you need some eye candy of Demi Moore, you're better off looking for stills on the Internet.
