Brutal review

OUCH!!!_______


"Gong Li is still the most beautiful Actress on earth"
-L.A weekly 2006

I read in the Evening Standard that in a personal written statement to the press, Madonna claims to have been inspired by the four directors whom she admires above all others: Godard, Pasolini, Visconti, and Fellini. Yet she only spells two of the names correctly. Yeah. Big admirer.

Frankly, I think it's very unprofessional for anyone to judge Madonna like that. If you want to comment on the film, criticize on the film piece itself, do not to pass on judgement because of Madonna's fame and reputation. Why can't one be objective, impersonal, and forget about who made the film, just watch the movie as any other good/bad movie? It is ridiculous for a person make comments on Madonna's music career. I mean, after all, moviegoers are more familiar with films, and they may happen to be in the film business. Why should they comment on Madonna's performing and musical career? Does it have to do with Madonna's age? Does it have to with Guy Ritchie? NO CONNECTIONS!!!! FALLATIOUS LOGIC!!!!

IF YOU DO THAT, IT'S TOTALLY CRAP, SIMPLY A RANT. AND THAT, IS WHAT I CALL, S-I-C-K, PERIOD

I don't intend to be offensive, but I have to defend my opinions.

I feel so bad for Eugene Hutz, I really hope this doesn't impact him if he wants to act in films later on.

Madonna fans are so empowered and resentful. I love how any relataliation about how poor this film is comes in the form of "What do you expect? Something from Hollywood?" or "Its edgey and dark and intelligent"

Firstly, the critics who are bashing this thing, basically all of them, are the same critics who would bash a Hollywood formulaic movie. Secondly, it is not that intelligent and it has its head up its ass in too many directions.

And wtf is up with citing four major directors like that and than spelling two of them wrong? What - did she just start watching them recently and considers herself a connoisseur of fine film? She is the equivalent of a 20-something film grad. who thinks he/she is going to be the next great filmmaker on the block because they have seen all those 'old masterpieces' - the only difference is that she has more than enough money now and the connections to get this thing made.

If I didn't even know Madonna's name was attached to this movie, I would still have hated it. It's just bad. Plain and simple.
