scrapple Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 i couldn't believe how shockingly awful it was when I watched it....I was actually amazed with lines like "I'm cowering behind a flower pot" how could it be anything but awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatinAmericanIdol Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I just rewatched it the other day and it was a total scringefest, especially the first half. Terribly written and of course, the acting was not that great. But, I have to to say that her performance was not a COMPLETE mess. There are a handful of scenes where she's quite natural.

nick00 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I never watched many of Madonna's films, but I sat through this one. I was entertained, but in reality it's just an average film. I got the feeling critics viciously tore it apart b/c of you know who was starring in it. Also, the soundtrack to the film was good. Time Stood Still is one of my top five favorite Madonna songs. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xanthium Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Horrible movie, great soundtrack. I like American Pie a lot and I absolutely LOVE Time Stood Still. Should've been a single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acko Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 The beam of light had one reviewer conclude that 'Madonna must make movies for the same reason Barbra Streisand still wants to make movies, to have other people say 'You still look good'.' Otherwise the reviews were kinda okay-ish here...some even said she was adequate. Not me of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pud Whacker Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 interesting that all the fags say she abandoned them after erotica, yet made a major motion picture about homos and AIDS and modern families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littlebastard Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Not doing Chicago for this was THE worst film career decision of her life. God my mother while seeing the Chicago thing at the Oscars this year even said how Madonna would have been great in that role. This movie stinks.

jonski43 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 It's so dull. Was it meant to be a comedy or a drama comedy? It was laugh free and there was zero tension. I just didn't care what happened to any of them. She was just so flat whereas in Swept Away she was abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb19 Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 It was not her decision leaving Chicago. The director changed and didn't want her. True, but she probably put her foot in it a little. Wasn't this the time she passed up on a RoL tour, Music of the Heart AND Chicago to make this film. But if she hadn't, I wonder if she'd ever have met Guy?

Fighting Spirit Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Well, I really don't care about her movies as an actress. Never did. But I do find her directed movies very interesting because her artistic visions are very interesting. But Desperately Seeking Susan is THE ONE. I love it. Her scenes, her looks, her outfits, her messed up hair, her lines, her swagga. It's PERFECTION. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raf Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Never saw it. Flop fan! I liked it at the moment, but I rewatched it a couple of weeks ago and I agree, Swept Away is miles better! But I will always be grateful to this movie for introducing to me to Mandalay The whole soundtrack is pretty great actually! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMoody Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I remember going to TNBT in theatres opening night...it was pretty full. Swept Away two years later, was empty....my friend and I saw it back to back and in the second showing, people began to get up and leave after she suddenly falls in love with Pepe after he spent a good 20 minutes beating her ass and degrading her humanity. I have a soft spot for SA, I think she was very natural playing an evil bitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabrina26 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) No its why she stopped talking to him. :madgemanson:/> HAHAHAHAHAHA :rotfl:/> I actually love this film, yes it sucks but its soooo bad its good! The bit in the carwash has got to be Madonna's worst acting scene....EVER YES! That scene in the carwash is just terrible! It's not even that bad, it's just incredibly boring. Body Of Evidence is the one that I would call SO bad it's good. :lol:/> Swept Away is just WTF. :huh:/> For me the worst part of Swept Away is when Madonna and the italian guy seem to be flying and M's wearing those ridiculous glasses! Guy Ritchie should be reaaaally ashamed of this! Edited March 4, 2013 by sabrina26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightshade Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Horrible movie, great soundtrack. Signed. For me the worst part of Swept Away is when Madonna and the italian guy seem to be flying and M's wearing those ridiculous glasses! Guy Ritchie should be reaaaally ashamed of this! OMG! That is my favorite part of that movie. Mostly because it is set to Mazzey Star's "Fade Into You". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennylu Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 TNBT is probably the worst Madonna movie experience ever! A truly B-title, a entirely FAKE movie experience devoid of any charm--Lifetime Movies are better than this! Shame, cos it was Oscar winner John Schlesinger's final film (he made Midnight Cowboy).
