This is one of those trillers with a little of everything in it, twists that come unexpectedly, some present and future big name actors, a plot that seems clear, but is not, and a little bit of overt sex. Often with a movie of this nature, some of the plot turns are too implausible. Not so here. It all makes pretty good sense. The viewer is not privy to all the details as they happen and that is what keeps you guessing. Even if the viewer were let in on the secrets in real time, it would still be a good yarn. While this is fiction, everything fits; there are no foolish leaps that force you to put reality on hold. And while some of the events in "Wild Things" seem far fetched, when one looks at the sensational news events of the last 20 years, this movie would fit right in the modern world. Kevin Bacon and Bill Murray can do any movie they want, but this movie put Denise Richards on the map (she is from a town a few miles from my home), and give Matt Dillon's career a new start. I had never heard of Neve Campbell, but she has turned out to be a rising star, partly because of this movie. She is the focus of the story, and it takes the viewer all the way to end to put the pieces together. This movie is rated R for good reason, not so much for the sex, but for the ugly underside revealed that exists in most of our society. Nobody is exactly what they seem, and that makes for a good story. It is also the stuff of real life. Most DVD copies out there are in standard 4/3 format. Look for a 16/9 version. It improves the experience.Read full review
I think many of the critics complaints about this movie were unfounded. excellent cast...Bill Murray a standout. It's a great romp graced by the likes of Neve Campbell, Denise Richards, and Theresa Russell. Set in Noir Country...Florida.
