After reading some of the scathing reviews here, I'm almost afraid to say I actually liked this film. It's no dumber than the Austin Powers movies, and, IMHO, a lot more intelligent than the Halloween movies. And, yes, I definitely enjoy gazing upon the unclothed female form, of which there is a gorgeous plentitude here.
Demi Moore should have taken classes from Elizabeth Berkley before making "Stripper"; I've never seen a better, or more comical, on-screen enactment of a private lap dance. Poor Kyle McL must have needed a boatload of cold showers after shooting that scene a few times.
Anyway, after checking Paul Verhoeven's list of movie credits, which tend heavily toward scifi drama, I figure he made this movie as a comic change of pace. A for effort, C- for execution!
This movie gets my ultimate compliment; I might actually rent it again. 7**/10.
