Critics Consensus

Like Body Heat, The Last Seduction updates film noir techniques for a modern era, imbuing this erotic film with '90s snark.

3/4

While The Last Seduction isn’t anywhere near the complex and disturbing masterpiece that Chinatown is, it does contain more social commentary than has generally been ascribed to it.

The movie is a spirited attempt at modern film noir, and huge parts of it are enjoyable.

What Sharon Stone did for the ice pick, Linda Fiorentino does for the ice princess.

Pulling him into her orbit, she spills a wickedness onto entire canvas, leaving us with no choice but to lay in thrall of her swaggering competence. May we never never cross paths.

8/10

Linda Fiorentino pulls out all the stops and delivers a tour-de-force performance in John Dahl's gripping neo-noir, The Last Seduction, a film full of blue moods, dark humour, and hairpin turns.

Linda Fiorentino...gives a wisecracking, ball-breaking, riveting performance in John Dahl's The Last Seduction.

It was an attractive aproach to the film noir. It didn't have the necessary thrill for a crime based drama but it was interesting and fun to watch.

A 90s film with a good dose of noir and snark. What's not to like?

The best thrilling movie ever made!

Such trembling intoxication to see Linda Fiorentino play a consummate femme fatale executing treacherous schemes on indefensible men in this neo-noir erotic thriller that revels in joyous sleaze.

Upon rewatch This is probably one of the ultimate Femme Fatale films.

Some nice twists and a great cast, but feels more dated than some other 90's movies!
