Fatal Attraction Ratings & Reviews

Story was fine and there was some good drama and suspense. But it kind of fell apart for me cause I don't find Glenn Close attractive.

Thanks to a good ending, this movie comes out on top. Too bad Glenn Close is unattractive, but maybe that adds to the realism.. It's always the uggos acting like this.

Too much of a good thing can become a very bad thing, and Fatal Attraction shows this without going overboard itself. The love affair between Daniel and Alex was like a major category hurricane, beautiful to look at it go on open waters from a safe distance but imminently destructive in its wake, especially once it lands. Great performances all around, especially Douglas and Close.

I’d rather have the herpes demon from It Follows stalking me forever than deal with Glenn Close boiling bunnies and wilding out like this.
