As the star of such 80s classics as Action Jackson and Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol, Sharon Stone was the object of many film geeks fantasies. She increased that demographic when she became an international star with the lead in Basic Instinct and later her Oscar nomination for Casino. Now Stone is reprising her role as the bisexual murderess Catherine Tramell in the sequel Basic Instinct 2.
It's a bit disconcerting that Stone seems to actually think Basic Instinct 2 is any good. At all. At the screening I was at, the ending got huge laughs. In a bad way. I'd be surprised if the film received more than 2 or 3 positive reviews.
I think Sharon Stone is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood and I'm looking forward to seeing the character of Catherine Tramell come back to the screen. I hope this sequel does at least SOME partial justice to the original (although by the sound of Anton's comment, it doesn't). Still, I'm willing to see for myself. Great interview!
