Wild Things has plot twists, character turns, story misdirections and's sooo freaking hot the whooooooole time and is so sultry and kind of sweaty just like its swampy Floridian setting with a hell of a hot and good cast showcasing some deceitfully reserved acting by Dillon, Richards, Neve, and Kevin with some obliviously upfront acting by Murray, Russell, Rubin-Vega, and Wagner. Denise and Neve's awesome 3way nude scene with Matty D is awesome and the first point the movie starts to really reveal itself. Denise Richards is sooooo sweet and hot in Wild Things. I love her. Wild Things is really good and close to great but it's kind of ridiculous and pointless and stupid and silly really but really sexy with great acting from the stars and an unforgettable plot.

I am unable to discuss the full storyline of this movie. My disk gave in about five minutes to the end, it was during the second of the revealing scenes after The End appeared on- screen. But I don't think Kelly is dead. No way.Herewith just my nomination for Denise Richards for the RavenGlam title Most Beautiful Girl On Film Ever. Yes, I have others contending for that title here at ElectricLadyLand, but certainly, Ms. Richards is a most viable contender. The "I was raped" tearful confession to her mother features the best close-up of a girl's face I have ever, and that is Ever, seen, and she was crying tears, so I am forever gonna remember this one, it is just bunny-nosed beautiful!As for the story, I would have preferred a more rock-solid male character. Oh, and laugh heartily now, but no freaking way could I take Neve "Julia PARTY OF FIVE Salinger" seriously - no way - she has proved she can only do one form of acting, ambling on in neutral gear, throwing in a regular fake little laugh. To think what was expected of her years and years ago when she appeared on the cover of Seventeen...Worth watching for Denise Richards alone. It is the one and final time that you truly, truly, truly get your money's worth...

Sam Lombardo is a councillor at a high school in Blue Bay; a town in southern Florida. He is popular with the students; a little too popular in some cases. His life is turned upside down when one of his pupils, Kelly the daughter of a rich woman Sam had been involved with, accuses him of rape. At first it looks as though she has made up the allegation as revenge for him rejecting her advances but when a second girl, Suzie, makes a very similar accusation Sam is arrested and it goes to trial. As the trial proceeds it becomes apparent that the two girls had been colluding and Lombardo is cleared. It isn't long before his lawyer has extracted a multi-million dollar settlement. Shortly after we get the first major twist of the film; it emerges that Sam, Kelly and Suzie had planned everything to get the money. They will have to be careful though as police officer Ray Duquette is sure he knows what they have done and is determined to prove it. As the tension rises tempers fray and it isn't long before somebody is dead and it looks like others may follow before the end credits.This film is best known for the threesome involving Matt Dillon, Neve Campbell and Denise Richards; this is a pity as the film is far more than that one scene… in fact anybody watching for raunchy content is likely to be disappointed as it is fairly tame by modern standards. However people looking for a solid thriller with plenty of twists and turns is likely to be pleasantly surprised. Once the trial is over we get the first major twist but there are plenty of others before the story is over. Twists often seem forced but these worked and should keep the viewer guessing until the very end. The cast do an impressive job; Matt Dillon is perfect as Lombardo, making the character suspicious enough that we wonder about his guilt without making us certain of it. Twenty-somethings Neve Campbell and Denise Richards are suitably sexy as the eighteen year old temptresses Suzie and Kelly. Kevin Bacon is solid enough as Ray Duquette but characters who are meant to be good as often not as interesting as those who are obviously bad. Bill Murray is also a lot of fun as Lombardo's dubious lawyer. Overall this is a lot of fun; don't be put off by its reputation; it isn't all that sleazy.

17 years after seeing Wild Things, my memory is pretty sketchy, much the same as the movie. All I can recall is that there were some interesting plot twists and turns that kept me watching. The story of a detective--Kevin Bacon, I think--involved in something or another about murder and a guidance counselor--Matt Dillon?--and two nymphets-- Neve Campbell and Denise Richards--and, oh, whatever. The only reason people, er, guys watch this movie is to see Campbell and Richards having sex. Wild Things is raunchy, but it has just enough skill in the storytelling that it isn't purely soft porn.If you're not terribly interested in letting the mutt in your brain pan lick himself (Stop that, Rover!) while watching the two gals "kiss and make up," you may find Wild Things marginally interesting, although it gets off (sorry) to a very weak start that telegraphs that much of the film's focus is below the belt.Funny story: At the recent White House Correspondents' Dinner, Fox News' Jesse Watters was interviewing Neve Campbell and brought up the pool scene with Denise Richards and her. She got a snarky grin on her face and said something like "It figures you'd like that."I'm no prude, but was that a slam at Watters or conservatives or just guys in general?My mutt would respond but he's busy.
