Showgirls is the capper in writer Joe Eszterhas' storied career. First came Flashdance. Then he shocked us with Basic Instinct. Then he writes Showgirls, an ultra-explicit NC-17 drama about a Las Vegas showgirl who goes from nobody to "Goddess" by playing the Power Game better than everyone else.

Somehow, in the wake of Lucas’ CGI evisceration of his own work and overblown space operas like The Chronicles of Riddick, somebody still knows how to put together an outer-space romp that trades just as heavily on quips and character as it does on conflict and explosions. All the better, there’s barely a movie star in sight. The film in question is Serenity, the by-product of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Joss Whedon’s sci-fi series Firefly. Somehow, Whedon convinced Universal to pony up about $45 million to make and show Serenity to multiplex audiences, 95 percent of whom will have never seen the original series, which lasted on Fox for only 11 episodes back in 2002. read the full review | |

Rock borrows his story structure from Eric Rohmer's Chloe in the Afternoon, a somber morality play from 1972 that contains more laughs than Wife. He plays Richard Cooper, a successful investment banker and married father of two who has grown bored by his safe, sturdy routine. Because he and his wife (Gina Torres) no longer are intimate, the lecherous Richard spends hours fantasizing about the women around him -- every joke in Wife traces back to sex read the full review | |
