Product Description Bluray Disc
Amazon.com The take-no-prisoners sex thriller from 1992 now stands as a milestone in the career of screenwriter Joe Eszterhas, but in the hands of director Paul Verhoeven Basic Instinct is an undeniably stylish and provocative study of obsession. In the role that made her a star (and showed the audience a little more skin than she intended), Sharon Stone plays the cleverly manipulative novelist Catherine Tramell who snares San Francisco detective Nick Curran (Michael Douglas) with her insatiable sexual appetite during the investigation of her boyfriend's murder. Tramell is the prime suspect, but the plot twists and turns until Curran is trapped in a dangerous cycle of dead ends and unsolved murders, never sure if Tramell is committing the crimes or if it is some other, unknown suspect. With a plot that keeps viewers guessing, Basic Instinct is the work of a director who is clearly in his element. --Jeff Shannon

Close To Absolute Perfection August 14, 2010 Anathaniel Wallace (Wash, DC USA) I won't go into too many details about the plot of Basic Instinct. Others have done that much better than I could. All I will do is give a synopsis of my favorite scenes.
The characters were spectacular! I loved seeing Sharon Stone heat up the screen in this movie! To think that Meg Ryan, Ellen Barkin, Kim Bassinger and so many other fine actresses all turned down the role of the decade makes me realize how it was fate that had the part get to Stone. Stone, and only Stone could do this part justice! Wow! She was incredible. She carried the movie in my opinion and Douglas played off of her. Don't get me wrong, Douglas did his fair share. He more than carried his weight in the production, but it really was Stone that got things going! Never have I seen such a beautiful display of chemistry on screen.
The Jean Tripplehorne sex scene was absolutely incredible! I know many were turned off by its explicitness, butI feel it conveyed the primal urge that exists between man and woman. Tripplehorne's character acquiesses to the strong male and ends up being dominated by him! (Her Lover/Patient). As Douglas takes Jean Tripplehorne over the couch you realize that you are in for one wild and fantastic storyline!
The ending had/was a twist! I won't go into details and/or ruin it for the reader, but suffice to say that you will be terrified and stunned at how the script ends itself!
Definately a Five-Star rating!

Basic Instinct should be in everyone's collection July 28, 2010 Kelly J. Wilson (Wichita) Basic Instinct is a movie that changed the way we view movies, it had all of the factors that made it a instant hit, sex, drama, action, suspense. The acting is first rate and the story keeps you guessing and after all who can forget the interview with Sharon Stone's character..wow what a shock!
Good from start to finish! June 3, 2010 The Evaluator (Gainesville, FL) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well-casted flick. Sharon is hot. Michael Douglas does a very good job. Well worth your time.
Great Movie March 3, 2010 M. Nalchajyan (los angeles) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love this movie but i mean the quality of the old movies on blu ray does not match with the quality of the new movies.
Greatest Movie Ever March 3, 2010 Elizabeth A. Rigor (Seoul, South Korea) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is an amazing movie with one of the greatest story lines. It pulls you into the story. Sharon Stone has an iconic moment while being interrogated. Michael Douglas plays the deceived detective whose life is turned upside down by Stone's character. I love this movie.
