There is nothing very smooth about Smooth as Silk, a story about an actress who uses men to get ahead in show business. Production-wise cast and crew play their parts reasonably well, nice sets, good lighting, professional performances. But the story is a flop. There is not one sympathetic central character in the film, just back-stabbing, social-climbing, win-at-all-cost crumbs. ... no mystery, no intrigue, no fidelity, nothing to tug at your heartstrings or evoke a tear, nothing to point to at final curtain and say, "I loved that!" In fact the movie ends so abruptly it's as if the producers were racing for the stage door to get out of there. The promotion says it all: "Dangerous Women ... His Game, Sudden Death ... His sport!" If you can tell me what that has to this movie, I'd like to know. Fortunately it's only 64 minutes, just over  SAG's 60 minute threshold for a feature.
