Wild Things, is the actual movie anygood?
lets just say that i've only seen screencaps, from 2 very key scenes, but i was wondering if indeed the movie was any good, or if it was just for the t&a?
my girlfriend kind of wants to see it.

It's decent. Nothing special but you shouldn't feel like you waster two hours.

It's worth watching for Bill Murray's hilarious preformance in the first half hour.

I picked this up new when it was released, and it surprised me. I thought it was quite good. HOWEVER, I saw it without seeing the trailer first.
Resist the temptation to view the trailer, as it spoils a good portion of the movie and turns some clever switcharounds into just another plodding plot point.
God I hate trailers that give too much away.

I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought, and it was mostly because of Bill Murray. His scenes alone are worth checking the movie out for, but the eye candy is quite good, too

thought this was a decent movie. my mom complained that the acting wasn't top notch, but i mentioned because of the subject, and the sleeze, that it was supposed to be a bit cheesy.

It is a good movie, and not just for the T&A.
The unrated cut is the version of the film you want to see, its even better than the theatrical cut. And not just for the extra T&A, they add other scenes back in too.

The only real complaint I have with Wild Things is that there are so many twists in the third act that they start to become predictable. About the only twist at the end that I didn't see coming was the very last scene during the closing credits.

i was quite surprised at how much i liked the movie. the twists are really well done. i've only seen it a couple times and i got the new version, i just hope it doesn't wear thin on another viewing or two.
