If you are a fan of the film Showgirls then this film is for YOU! I love Rena Riffel and her work in other pictures. Rena reminds me of Marilyn Monroe with Sandra Bernhard's personality! And I really respect RR for writing, directing and producing "Pennies from Heaven". Which is no easy task! Many of the cast were in the first film. I am a huge fan of Grind House type pictures and this film falls into that category. It's not for everybody. If you liked Patch Adams you won't enjoy ShowGirls 2.
Penny (Rena Riffel) decides to leave VEGAS "To became a BIG Moviestar in Hollywood". She has many good and bad adventures. I hate when people write a review and spoil the ending, so I won't. It must be seen to be believed! Very entertaining! This film is going to be a cult classic!

This movie was so horrible, it is actually CRAZY hard to even describe to other people!!! (& this is coming from a die-hard Showgirl's fan) The original "Showgirls" was a bad film with good production value and an interesting cast, which made it an awesome/funny B-movie. However, "Showgirls 2" is just terrible from the beginning to end!!! The script is very awkward and basically steals all the known lines from the first film, and then adds some strange one-liners that (I guess) are suppose to seem witty. The overall production quality is laughable, as are some of the locations, costumes and actors. Plus the plot just twists and twists and twists, until you have no idea what you did wrong in your life to possibly lead you to buying and watching this movie! o_O
I wish I could rate this without having to give a star! Honestly, I bet I could give an old hooker a cellphone to make a movie and her's would be far more enthralling...if not comical! ;)

I was disappointed the first one was way better

Rena Riffel is an artist far ahead of her time. Her comic timing is impeccable, and directing style can only be described as David Lynch meets Andy Warhol. This is both camp and beyond camp... Hypnotic, jarring at times - especially the surreal storyline and dialogue. It manages to tease out the absurdity of the original in a loving, celebratory way. Also features a perfectly staged and executed dance sequence not to be missed. This is one of my favorite films and it only gets better with repeated viewings.

Don't waste your money on this, it should have never been made and it's 2 and a half hours of your life that you will never get back. It is painful to watch if you can make it all the way to the ending. This is something that can be given to someone as a gift to show that you really hate them. The first Show Girls movie was watchable, but there are no words to describe how awful the second movie is. :-(

2.0 out of 5 stars Das schlechtere Sequel
Reviewed in Germany on October 21, 2015
Hände weg von dieser Version. Der zweite teil erreicht bei weitem nicht die erotische Spannung des Originals. Die Hauptdarstellerin spielt zwar überzeugend, aber der Film zieht sich in die Länge ohne wirklich spannende Szenen. Es ist ein Versuch an Showgirls anzuknüpfen, der aber nicht wirklich gelungen ist.

Reviewed in Canada on October 30, 2016
Pure garbage, and that is coming from someone who loved the first film. Not going to waste a lot of time analyzing as I don't want to loose any more of my life on this sequel. I will say that this second film comes across as a cheaply produced indie-like flick that was torture to watch, both from the story line as well as from a technical perspective. In comparison, the first film is quite the opposite. Kinda like comparing Stephen Spielberg to Ed Wood, if you get my drift. Yeah, a lot of people hated the first film, BUT it was at least exceptionally well made technically, even if you hated the story and the morality of it, etc, (which is another matter). In comparison SHOWGIRLS 2 is nothing like the first film. Like comparing night and day. This second film is just a struggle to watch and has little or no redeeming qualities. I really wanted to like this film but I found it a total let down.
