....Nothing

Ladies and Gentleman, boys and girls, get ready for a film that took home 7 Razzie awards including Worst Film and Worst Director. It' also a movie that almost ruined everybody's career. So put your arms together for the wickedly crappy and the one and only Showgirls. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡

The story is about a mysterious young drifter enters Las Vegas with the hopes of becoming a dancer. After working at the seedy Cheetah Club, a chance meeting leads her to audition for the Goddess production at the Stardust Casino. She soon learns that this new, glamorous world comes with its own set of rules and pitfalls.

What shocks me is when good and decent directors making the absolutely horrifically bad movie, and this has happen before but it always keeps surprises me how good director who made good movie that has dropped so down low. Paul Verhorven is a director who in my opinion makes enjoyable guilty pleasure movies that you will be a idiot to take them seriously, but Showgirls may have been the biggest down fall from Paul Verhorven.

The directing in this movie has to be the most dullest and the most uninspiring directing and that was hard for me to say that because this guy is a great director and he has made good movies before, but this movie takes his talent and throws it out of the window.

The acting and the character's in the movie wasn't really all that well done, I didn't really buy into they characters because none of the actors give nothing with they performance and that's why in some scenes where a big drama happened and it didn't work because the actors give a lifeless performance that I didn't give a shit about.

The writing in this movie has to be one of the worst writing I've seen since...well every bad movie with bad writing. Dialogue like, "I liked the way you came". or "Dancing ain't fucking". Awful just awful writing.

For positives I don't have much to say and normally I go in full detail of everything, if a movies good I got a lot to say, but if a movies bad then I got the right things to say, but with this movie it's nothing really when you think about it. This movie doesn't give me anything to say or to go in long sentence of why it's good or bad, the movie overall is just nothing, end of story.
