Director:Adrian Lyne
Starring:Kim Basinger | Mickey Rourke | Margaret Whitton | David Margulies | Christine Baranski
Genres:Romance
Languages:English
Synopsis:They broke every rule. Elizabeth (Academy Award winner Kim Basinger) is a Soho gallery worker, romantically uninvolved since a painful divorce. John (Mickey Rourke) is a wealthy commodities broker, emotionally alone no matter who he's with. A chance meeting draws them into each other's worlds. Obsession takes them further into a mutual world of eroticism and emotional awakenings. With visual flair, director Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction, 1998's Lolita) explores extremes of passion and surrender in 9 1/2 Weeks, presented in an expanded version with footage not seen in U.S. theatrical release. Passion fades. But something John and Elizabeth will always carry inside is the impact of their 9 1/2 Weeks

Slow romance 30 out of 100
This movie has been parodied so many times that watching the original seems pointless, however the two leads are good value and although the 'erotic' scenes are tame and very dated by the standards of even modern music videos, the tension builds well as a divorced art saleswoman Bassinger embarks on an affair with sexually inventive financier Rourke. There is heavy use of artistic imagery, bold lighting, and some iconic scenes. It ties up well (!) but finally its all a bit much for us - and Kim.

Worst storyline ever. Do not think it would have been so bad if it had a proper ending! Hate films that just end with no resolve!

9 and a half years too late 10 out of 100
I had a lot of fond memories of this as a teenager, and so did my teenage girlfriend. Now, it's just embarrassing. If you've netered your twenties, move swiftly along. There's nothing to see here.

Groundbreaking... in the early 80's.. 25 out of 100
OK, basically its now an old film, and when you take away the contraversy it got when it came out, what remains is a fairly ordinary love story. Groundbreaking in the day, not so today. The movie is like the scene in Glenroe when Dick & Teasey get it on. Raunchy in the day, but not anymore since we now have fair city WHAAARRR.
