Showgirls

CriticsCritics: 25
AudienceAudience: 5.1

A determined newcomer arrives in Las Vegas and takes work as an exotic dancer while chasing a place in the city’s glamorous show business world. As opportunities emerge, rivalries, exploitation, and her fierce ambition push her toward an increasingly ruthless struggle for success.

My take

You may enjoy this if you appreciate outrageous, sexually explicit cult camp and over-the-top melodrama; Not for you if you want subtle writing, grounded characters, or a focused story.
