I must say, from the preview, it's interesting title you really expect this film to be an engrossing sort. It's a facade. This was one that ran short on just almost every level. Out of curiosity, I wanted to see this, just to see if Lundgren's acting has improved. A none too much improvement there. On a personal mission, of revenge, and of course a cop, he goes into the S and M world, none too sexy to find out who killed his brother who was into it. Based on a novel, sheerly here, the film hasn't done the book justice. The film kind of runs along the same line as the Get Shorty's, and watching Lundgren go through the motions, with his wooden clog acting, doesn't make for enthralling viewing. This film, no kidding, I was gyped, something made out to be much bigger than it really is.

Scandalously devious, erotically enticing, and dangerously clever and kinky. This movie is what is all about. Coming home from the West Coast to here more about a death of a brother is usual. The role reversal of men getting their "franks and beans" hacked will make a rapist go straight. A modern day "Jill The Ripper" is out and the brother wants to find out who it is. Dolph's character as a hardcore ex-cop must find out who killed his brother. However, his brother's desires would make a target for scandal, and it would definitely make the family look bad. I liked the part where the brother's widow kicks the captain in the "jewels". That was funny. Then there's this dog who is owned by the eccentric afro-American woman who doesn't care about the dog period. All the sex and violence makes "Basic Instinct" safe to watch. Being tied up in any fashion: in a cage, on the bed, in the tub, etc. This movie shouldn't be called "Tied up", it should be called "Deadly Bondage". But then again, I leave the other title the way it is. For the kinky, and the horny. Rating 3 out of 5 stars.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. The Avengers held this dubious honor… but no longer. The acting in "Jill the Ripper" is terrible and was only eclipsed by the plot. This movie is as intellectually stimulating as the Telletubbes. It doesn't know whether it wants to be an S&M flick or a really bad thriller. Only watch under extreme intoxication or if you're bed ridden and need a leather clad distraction. This script should be reworked into a porn, it wouldn't take very much effort and would have a longer shelf life. A porn, even a bad porn, wouldn't do the damage to Dolf Lundgren's career the way that this movie has.

As a general rule I don't like martial arts movies and especially don't like Dolph Lundgren. But this isn't his typical fare and altho he still doesn't come off as an actor this film has a sort of interesting plot and our Dolph isn't the all powerful superhero.He is an alcoholic ex-cop who has gotten involved in tracing what may be a serial killer for reasons of his own and almost displays some semblance of humanity. I say almost because although he tries our hero still has a lot of work to do, but this film is tolerable for the late nite audience.
