Ideology

Certain things could have been better explored in the movie I reckon, but overall this is quite the decent effort when it comes to lifestyle (culture) clashing. Also the fact you have so many women in major character roles is really a nice touch. And while some do explore their sexuality (with a minimal amount of nudity involved) and they have "weak" moments, overall this shows just interesting types of human behaviour.

Sharon Stone is promoted very big on this and apparently it was just her second movie (nice background infos about that on the disc and how she was to work with), she is not the actual lead here. She plays a big role nonetheless, but don't just watch it because of her. There is more to discover here. It was one of the earlier Wes Craven movies and it has one interesting bath scene that was later "re-used" by him in Nightmare on Elm Street. The movie itself is flawed yet overall good
