Showgirls (1995)
Nowhere near as bad as what is being claimed
5 August 2000
This film I think was a first/last ditch effort by Berkley to attempt to gain status within the facade that is Hollywood. Unfortunately it didnt work. She's far too tall.

Apart from that the movie was not as bad as what everyone said. to tell you the truth I wasn't bored for one second because the entire story was so well plotted and the directing was top-notch. Berkley's acting could be maybe one of the main failings however of the film. Actresses who agree to do these types of movies as a debut for their future careers cannot hope to be recognised for sheer guts alone: you have to be able to act otherwise you don't come off looking any better than a porno actor. Speaking of which, I think Chasey Lain could have done a great job in the lead, with maybe jill Kelly or Debi Diamond playing Gershon's role.

Trust me, there are definately worse movies out there: Daylight, Con-air, Thin Red Line, Streetfighter, Summer of Sam, just to name a few
