Itzel M @RT64607326 Oct 28 At the beginning, it seemed like it could actually be an interesting story, but towards the end, things just got kinda unrealistic and out of hand. Now, the things that happened are definetely plausible, but it just sorta ruined the story and overloaded it. Overall, it just feels like a story that had potential, but was basically just ruined by several turns of events. And honestly, the whole thing was just a sad dilemma. You can watch it, but don't expect anything extrordinary, its one of those movies to watch when you're bored and don't know what else to do. This is also the first movie I've seen Madonna in, and I'm not really impressed, but well. See more Ed . @RT01276001 08/29/2025 A positive spin is this is one of Madonna's best performances. The best thing would be for you to skip this movie. The next best thing would be for you to update your to do lists if you can't get out of watching this wretched film. One of the very worst movies I've ever seen, and I've seen Armageddon.

It was simply painful watching Madonna trying to act as a normal person, with that awful script, and few of the characters being remotely believable. I was working for John Schlesinger just prior to him making this last film and at the time, he said it was more difficult making a Hollywood film with a gay subject matter today, than when he made Sunday Bloody Sunday in the seventies.

The only person who was even good in this movie was Lynn Redgrave and she was only in like two scenes. Everyone else's acting in this movie is just atrocious. Even Neil Patrick Harris was bad in this movie and I didn't even know that was possible. What in the hell happened?! Oh yeah, Madonna happened. Oh brother. See more Read all reviews
