I just got a look at the first footage from the long delayed Basic Instinct 2, and just like '92 original, it seems those responsible for the sequel had to "fight" for the new film to get an R rating from the Motion Picture Association of America.
As for the footage itself, it's not an official trailer for the movie, thus it offers more skin than you might otherwise see. It's VERY explicit and NOT FOR CHILDREN OF ANY AGE.
It's hard for me to say, whether the scenes I saw, will translate into a worthwhile film, let alone something as good as the first film was. I'm sure the filmmakers are privately "thanking" the MPAA for the stir up over the rating. Because that will probably mean healthier first weekend ticket sales...at least. After that, it has to be a well made thriller, in order for it to work. All the skin in the world will not be able to save it.
