Amazon.com: This horrible misfire from the usually reliable writer-director Andrew Bergman (The Freshman) has nothing funny, provocative, timely, or interesting to say (despite being based on a novel by Carl Hiaasen) once Demi Moore gets her clothes off. Moore plays a single, unemployed mom caught up in a custody battle who elects to make some money by stripping at a club. The character's troubles don't end there, however: Her ex-husband is posing a threat, and a perverted congressman (Burt Reynolds) is looking for more than a lap dance. Bergman's great wit is nowhere in sight, and the film primarily becomes another opportunity for Moore to function like a special effect. The unrated video version of the film includes two minutes of footage not seen in the theatrical release. --Tom Keogh

Single mom
Well, this film may work better for women giving their hearts to a single mom. She makes a living as a striptease dancer.
The theme and brief nudity carry the rating to "R." However, striptease dancing scenes are few and short. And not erotic.
I mean that the actress fails to act it out. Might be too hot an issue for her. ET
