The pictures of the film have a certain degree of appreciation. The use of the lens is tepid and has no characteristics, but it is also considered to be relaxed, showing the ability to control the language of the picture. Objectively speaking, it also makes the rhythm of the story development smoother. The aerial photography of the city, the explanation of the scene and the environment, and the depiction of the faces of the characters make the film not too boring. The shooting of London's urban landscape should be affirmed, including the London Natural History Museum, the British Imperial College, the Freemason near Lincoln Law School, and the county hall on the South Bank, etc., all appear uniformly in the film. There is nothing wrong with the picture quality. Both the perspective and the details are clear and natural. The color is slightly yellow in some scenes, but it does not affect the picture quality. The suit and leather shoes of the male characters in the film add a lot to the picture. Blue tones, blue and yellow make the picture look very clean. Sharon Stone's coquettish scenes have to be said that she still sees the charm and maintains a very good figure. It can be clearly seen that the use of substitutes, lighting and clothing techniques to make up for the fourteen-year old bead yellow.
However, the film’s failure is nothing more than the actors, the script, the audience’s acceptance of the erotic scale, the great success of the previous work and other factors. Except for Sharon Stone, the other actors and the characters in front of and behind the stage are completely unknown. Sharon Stone is not enough to attract the audience. Although the content of the story is a relatively standard suspense and thriller routine, it is easy to compare the two due to the reputation of the previous work. The script of the film's insufficient tension is obviously disadvantaged. In the passion passage, the audience has long been fascinated by the erotic scenes, and even the glamorous scenes of the previous work are just like this. In addition, Sharon Stone, who was 48 years old at the time of shooting, can no longer attract the audience's interest

The paleness of the story leads to the hollowness of the characters, which is an important reason for the failure of the film. The personalities and backgrounds of the characters in the previous work "Basic Instinct" are quite rich. The policeman Nick is in a state of emotional instability due to his work mistakes. Lost and fallen in hesitation, and the psychologist played by David Morrissey in the sequel step by step fell into the trap of a female writer. There is no auxiliary cushion, which is quite lacking in persuasiveness. The actor's own performance is also very flat, not like Mike Douglas back then. The image of people is profound. In a pertinent manner, although Sharon Stone is not as good as it was in the past, her art is not bad, and her performance in the sequel is also extremely sultry, but it is a pity that her time has passed and she is unable to return to heaven. The whole movie made the audience feel dizzy and incomprehensible. Only at the end did hypnotism give an answer. It is really hard to justify, and it's too far-fetched
