Sliver

A great movie... The best movie of Sharon Stone, the screenplay by Joe Eszterhas is brilliant. If you like the good movies, please rent SLIVER... 9.5/10

This movie is neither one of suspense or eroticism as the commercialisation suggests. The plot never seemed to unravel into anything special, which is shown with the incredibly poor, abrupt ending. One scene, the stair to lift scene, shows promise, but is over too quickly to keep the viewer suspended. It is however one of the famed "stone sex series", which although doesn't rival Basic Instinct can be erotic with Sharon's fabulous figure and great experience in that field. Mainly the script writers fault.4/10.

Sliver (1991) is a novel by U.S. author Ira Levin about the mysterious occurrences in a privately owned New York highrise apartment building, especially after a new tenant—an attractive young woman working in publishing—has moved in. Phillip Noyce directed the film based on the book. This movie gave me the creeps and i don't understand why anyone would like to do the types of things. Maybe i didn't understand the plot or maybe i am not really caring for the plot but the high point of this movie is the song that accompanies it. The movie takes rather a simplistic stance on voyeurism, suggesting that wanting to secretly observe people and thus invading their privacy is part of human nature.

SPOILER!!!!! I have one thing that I can not understand in plot. Baldwin's tape apparently appears that the murder who killed Naomi who is very similar to Stone is not Baldwin but Berenger. and Baldwin must know it through the tape. then, when he was suspected to a murder by Stone and Berenger intended to take the guilty to him why didn't he show the tape which can improve his innocence to his girlfriend? this movie gave me the stark image that have a unreasonable plot in order to just make audience confused who is a murder.

Sliver has a very basic premise- A young, good looking female moves into a tall building in NYC but it turns out there are a lot of skeletons hiding among the residents. Billy Baldwin is the male lead although this is Stone's film. Although the sex scenes are good there is no story to go with it. Upon looking at the wiki article I saw that the film was a financial disaster and I can see why. One needs a good foundation- a script of worth on which all the other features can stand. Sliver gets the erotic bits alright but fails to deliver a story. Still, worth a watch.
