wild at heart [collector's edition] [blu-ray] review

If you haven't seen this before, you would do yourself a favor by NOT trying to find out much about the plot before you go in. One of the most pleasant surprizes I've had, it's rare to walk into a movie that completely exceeds you expectations. 'I was one of the few people who actually saw this in a theatre.

With enough surprises to put The Usual Suspects to shame, this is a great film which deserves your full attention.' Definitely worth buying, but don't expect Shakespeare, because this is just meant to be glossy entertainment and it passes that test with flying colours. By the way, DO NOT watch the trailer before the film, it gives away the first plot twist of the movie which is never helpful. The commentary is genial enough (although during the threesome scene they all sound like naughty schoolboys who are watching a porno.), but don't be enticed by the 'Deleted Scenes' - only one is of any substance, and I'd guess they last about two minutes. It really is great fun, and any film that has Denise Richards naked can't be all bad. The real star is Bill Murray, who plays it deadpan (as normal) as a shyster lawyer and nearly steals the show. The story is hilariously over the top, with double cross after double cross and sudden sharp turns in the plot, but it's not meant to be taken seriously.

'Wild Things is a bit of an odd one really, as there's no easy way to define it - it's got sex, corruption, murder, comedy, camp value - but there is one word which sums it up nicely.
