Our take

A breakout film for the Wachowski sisters, the stylish and impossibly sexy Bound douses the machismo of the gangster film with steamy lesbian eroticism. Starring as illicit lovers who bring hard criminals to their knees, Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon burn up the screen with their torrid chemistry.
