IWhen I heard about this film, I immediately thought about this year's "Substance". Both Pamela Anderson and Demi Moore are actresses who were big stars in their youth and their careers "were tied close' to their looks and at a certain age they stopped getting roles in prestigious Hollywood productions, but this year they got roles that allow them to be on the lips of moviegoers again. However, Demi played phenomenally in an extremely original and bold body horror and her role will be remembered as one of the best comebacks in the history of cinema. Pamela, on the other hand... well, she plays well in that movie and proves that she can be a good dramatic actress, but she is held back by the film itself, which is too formulaic, does not take risks and does not delve into the psychology of the main character, let alone the completely unwritten secondary characters. There are a few interesting plot germs, including: clashes between the characters about which of the performances they undertake in various clubs is art and which is pornography, but these interesting moments are quickly cut off in favor of sentimental and nothing-burger scenes, like Pamela dancing in the street in Las Vegas. I did not like Jamie Lee Curtis in this, who plays as if she was in a completely different film than the others. The plot is quite predictable - we know how the conflicts between the characters will be resolved and that some elements ntroduced at the beginning will return at the end. I also do not understand why at times the shots are so strangely blurred at the beginning of the film?? I think it was supposed to be part of the artistic vision, but it's done so clumsily and inconsistently that it looks more like an accident. But at least "The Last Showgirl" is only 1 hour and 25 minutes long, so it's not a tiring experience. You're probably going to watch it and forget about it immediately after.
