I thought this film was not bad actually, and saw it as a voyage though bitchy sleazy Las Vegas showlife. Everyone goes on about the wildly exaggerated sex by the leading girl, but might that not be her style as a wannabe Vegas showqueen.I think compared to a lot of films that come out that deserve a one star rating this doesn't deserve one, I found it watchable and I think there's been a kind of herd effect to say it's trash. It's just *about* trash.So right on Tarantino for coming out alone in praising it I say.

Showgirls is a modern day "All About Eve", which was a well made but incredibly boring movie from 1950. So how do you make an old boring movie interesting? Simple, get Elizabeth Berkley to run around naked and kiss a few people. Well that's what was hoped. Unfortunately this was not enough and Showgirls fizzled. The people who see more into this movie are in sex appeal denial, or claim the directors never wanted this movie to be taken seriously. They say it was actually only ever meant to be poking fun at Las Vegas and Americans. Not True. 3 out of 10.
