this pick up about a year after the event in basic instinct . catherine tramell ( sharon stone ) be now in london . while have sex with a soccer player while speed about in a car go at 110 mile or hour ( do not ask ) she go off the road and end up in the thames . she survive he doesn not . the police hire psychiatrist michael glass ( david morrissey ) to see if she mentally competent to stand trial . naturally she start play with his mind instead and plenty of murder and sex follow . this movie be doom before it even open . it take forever to get a cast and director and script problem be constant and the cast be not happy ( morrissey complain about the movie often ) . still it not too bad . it a lot like the first there a lush music score and beautiful location and plenty of sex and nudity ( this have to be edit for an r ) and a nicely convolute plot and good acting but there no impact . it feel like a retread of the first . people be be kill here with a choker leash ( i believe ) . just like people be be kill by an ice pick in the first . in one cute moment stone pick up an ice pick and look at it longingly . she also play mind game with a man and might be get him implicate in murder . the similarity be too apparent . this be also very r rat there plenty of explicit sex talk and male nudity ( morrissey look a lot well nude than michael douglas ) and female nudity ( stone still look great ) and some bloody murder . the acting be good across the board . stone be just fantastic here while morrissey look miserable but be ok while charlotte rampling and david thewlis be good in support role . so this isn not at all bad but feel like a remake of the first . still i recommend it . people just attack this because stone be not well like and they think it be stupid to do a sequel to basic . 14 year after it be make .
