Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
This horrible misfire from the usually reliable writer-director Andrew Bergman (The Freshman) has nothing funny, provocative, timely, or interesting to say (despite being based on a novel by Carl Hiaasen) once Demi Moore gets her clothes off. Moore plays a single, unemployed mom caught up in a custody battle who elects to make some money by stripping at a club. The character's troubles don't end there, however: Her ex-husband is posing a threat, and a perverted congressman (Burt Reynolds) is looking for more than a lap dance. Bergman's great wit is nowhere in sight, and the film primarily becomes another opportunity for Moore to function like a special effect. The unrated video version of the film includes two minutes of footage not seen in the theatrical release. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Some of the dumbest male characters to ever appear in a film
Demi Moore's appearance in this movie is truly awesome, her body is lithe, sexy and she shows a great deal of it. Her dancing is truly a show that will cause men to stick bills of higher denomination in her garter. The supporting cast of strippers is also very good, including a few women whose mammary endowment is something that could knock you out if they swung around at even a moderate rate of rotation. However, that is the only thing even remotely positive about this movie. The plot is thin and ... Read More
Rating: - You really had to have read the book to get it.
It's really unfortunate that most people know this brilliant story only as a mediocre film. The story was adapted from an absolutely delightful novel written by Carl Hiassen of the Miami Herald. Having read Strip Tease before seeing the movie, I enjoyed Striptease a lot more than most viewers. I can understand how people would think the movie missed the mark if judged only by the movie.
Burt Reynolds plays Congressman Dilbeck almost exactly as he's portrayed in the book and he does a ... Read More
Rating: - Been to the circus lately?
PT Barnum said it best, well... you know what he said, and this movie says it from start to finish; proof? -you watched it! -not because you wanted to fulfill your hungry, starving intellect ( save the denial speech ) but to satisfy your lustful libido. -there, I said it; you just wanted to see Demi's new boobs!
Once all you 'high-and-mightys' out there get past that BS facade you've dragged throughout the reviews, you can get honest for a change and admit you got your moneys worth in eye-candy... ... Read More
Rating: - Demi: 10, everything else: 3
I just watched Striptease last night. Demi looked amazing! I don't care how she got that way but her body was incredible. The dance sequences were great and using the Eurythmics/Annie Lennox songs was a perfect choice. As for the movie itself it was just an excuse to showcase Demi - the plot, characters, everything was just muddled and confused. Ving Rhames' character was pretty cool though - very Marcellus Wallace-lite. All in all this movie is okay if you watch it while having a few margaritas!
