Bottoms Up? March 11, 2000 Missy Sausage (Seattle, WA) 18 out of 21 found this review helpful
Being a long time Theresa Russell fan I approached this film hesitantly. Theresa has been known to take on projects that most actresses would be too scared to take. This role for instant was thrown back by Oscar worthy famous actress Michele "Throw Me a Bone Here" Pfifer. Theresa is a gambler....a rebel....a diva ala extrodinaire. When she takes a project she is basically marking a huge bullseye on her rear end and sticking her target out for every critic to take his/her best shot. With "Whore" Theresa takes her character through a deep emotional journey to the far and deep nether regions we common people know as "the gutter." (a.k.a. rock bottom) Well Theresa.....I'VE BEEN THERE and sister you have shown everyone that a nite at the Cherry Motel is NO LAUGHING MATTER! What is the sum of 2+2? Ask Theresa. Her monologues are sheer genius. The look of the film is extremely stylized. Many people don't know this but a young Kevin Aucoin did the make-up on all of the whores. (did he also do the bullseye on theresa's bum? har har)PLEASE.....If you have a young daughter she needs to see this film. It will teach her that being a street walker just "ain't no fun." I recently heard Dr. Laura touting this film for educational purposes in Jr. High Schools because of it's strong moral content. Whether it's Double Entry or Half and Half you can always rely on Miss Russell to deliver a virtuosity of performances. PLEASE KEN PLEASE...WE are BEGGING for director and STAR commentary on the DVD release! Ladies and
Prostitution in a gritty format. December 15, 2004 L. M RODRIGUEZ (San Jose, CA United States) 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
Ms. Russell does a fantastic job in this movie. She is a beatiful street-walker, has pimp problems, acts so believable that it's hard to watch at times. What a great actress!
Oh, did I see a one-star review copied three times in order to lower the general rating of this film?
Well, just watch it and let your daughter watch it too! You may change your views on prostitution and realize that society should drop the morality issue and replace it by a human one. Perhaps then we will show some maturity to the rest of the world.

How can this not be on DVD? December 2, 2005 The Anti-Mamet (Amagansett, NY USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Theresa Russell gives on of her best performances in this film. This film is gritty and much more realistic than other films dealing with prostitution. This is not the usual Hollywood "hooker with a heart of gold" type of film. It shows what a depressing and degrading life prostitutes lead.
Hilarious December 2, 2005 E. Moss 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I think all of you are missing the point here. This film is first and foremost funny! It comes off all serious and trying to be "hip" (for 91' that is). I think my favorite part is when she gets stopped by two bike police and she makes fun of them saying, "What do you want me to do? Run alongside your bike? Or were you just going to cuff me to your spoke?" Defiantely makes me want to see "Whore 2"!
