Summary: NIGHTMARE!!!
Review: Rosie "Oh! Donnel" as a dominatrix! She should be speaking out against THIS garbage and save her pious, self righteous anti-gun hostility for the directors who produce this kind of "entertainment". Rosie may do good things for kids, but this "movie" was certainly was not one of those things!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved this movie.
Review: This is one of the funniest movies that I have ever seen.. I absolutely loved it. I have watched this movie over and over and have yet to tire of it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Poor adaption of a great book
Review: Overall the movie was average. But it should have been kept closer to Anne Rice's book of the same name. I recommend that you should read the book instead.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Either really bad or really funny
Review: This movie can either be the worst you've ever seen or one of the funniest-depending on how you look at it.Don't expect too much though.If you take it too seriously you'll hate it-otherwise you'll probably love it.Rosie O'Donnell is fabulous and it's great to see her ad libbing so much-it's the best part of the movie.I personally did not find the Australian guy at all attractive-but a lot of others did.If you're already a fan of Rosie O'Donnell you should see this movie-otherwise you might not appreciate it as much as the rest of us.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Paul Mercurio is a God !!!
Review: I have a crush on him since " Strictly Ballroom " . And here is Paul in his naked glory with his lovely tick Australian accent .When Hollywood is gonna give him better parts ? If only Marshall has left all the O`Donnell-Aykroyd cop act fiasco on the cutting room floor , this movie will be better . It have more sence like a sexy and kinky comedy about a wild " Fantasy Island " chapter rather than a raunchy " Police Academy " sequel . Anyway Paul is in it .

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: THIS MOVIE KICKS A$$!
Review: When I first saw Paul Mercurio in "Strictly Ballroom" I immediatley fell in love. In Exit To Eden, you get to see more of him to love--literally. He has the most perfect body you'll ever see in your entire lifetime. The whipping scene is so great on so many levels. The comedy is okay, but the visual jokes are great, and the costumes are fabulous. I loved this movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: lovely image content for Gay men and Straight women
Review: in context-appropriate bedroom scenem a nude Mercurio is seen from the back as he is prepared for a whipping by his mistress; a perfectly charming view of a lovely butt..highly recommended: buy the video, if obly for this scene!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Flirty, Funny, Sexy, and Sensual
Review: Great movie!!!! Perfect for those manly men, and dainty women. It's really the best of both worlds. The guys get the action they crave in movies. And the women, well they get the romance, sexual suspence, and desires. Definitly guarenteed to keep you busy all night! Fun for both the sexually daring but also for the timid. Opens ones eyes to both worlds. The comedy is fun and flirty. Rosie and Dan are perfect for these roles. Suprisingly it DOES HAVE A PLOT. Definitly a wonderful snuggle up by the fire type of movie.....NOT FOR CHILDREN!!!!!......by the way this was written by a woman... :)
Everyone enjoy!

Summary: Grab the bull dyke by the horns
Review: I truthfully believe that I am generally a good person, even though I have never been very religious or had much faith in a God. That is until I saw "Exit to Eden". Why, you ask, has "Exit to Eden" sparked such an epiphany to my faith. Well, please allow me the chance and I will articulate. You see, upon completion of this film I was given undisputable proof that the devil truly does exist. Now if there, in fact, really is a Lucifer. Then that, in turn, proves that there really is a God, and if this movie is any indication of the wrath he has in store for us when he returns then I, for one, definitely want to get on his good side before that grand event. So with that said let me get on with my review.

I was confused at first because the DVD jewel case, at my local Blockbuster clearly said that this film was a Dramatic Comedy. Once I returned home and put the film in my DVD player I was led to believe that I was watching a horror movie instead. I thought this because through a series of howls and moans, a bloodcurdling character was introduced. This character was so petrifying that it made Jason and Freddy seem like Siegfried and Roy in comparison. I asked myself, could the person that rented this film before me have mistakenly put the wrong disc into the "Exit to Eden" jewel case? That, in fact, turned out not to be the circumstance. It turns out that the character previously mentioned was none other than Rosie O'Donnell in a dominatrix outfit, and the howls I heard were just the seams of this dominatrix outfit screaming at the top of there lungs as they tried to hold on for dear life. Some of the scenes in this movie are so disturbing that they should have used on the tape from the movie "The Ring".

Let me ask you this. Do you find anything wrong with this statement: "Rosie O'Donnell in a dominatrix outfit", because the casting director obviously did not find anything wrong with it. I can't even begin to contemplate what was going through his mind when he selected her for this role out of the vast abundance of, none obesely globe like, Hollywood actresses. The NFA (National Film Association) should revoke his license for making such an appalling casting choice. Just to be on the safe side he shouldn't even be allowed to cast a vote or even a fishing line for that matter.

This film is based on Anne Rice's very well written erotic novel by the same name. It's a shame that they couldn't capture this in the translation to film. In fact the writers and director (Garry Marshall) acted similar to the body's digestive track. I say this because they took something good (Anne Rice's novel) just like the body takes something good (a Krispy Kream doughnut) and turned it into a steaming pile of $hit.


Dan Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell play a pair of detectives that follow a couple of diamonds smugglers into an erotic fantasy resort. Rosie O'Donnell's' character was suppose to have a few actions sequences in the film, but they were ultimately cut because they couldn't find a man butch enough to act as her stunt double. Throughout the whole movie I kept waiting for the other three Ghostbusters to join Dan Aykroyd and reenact the closing scene of their first movie with Rosie portraying the role of the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man, but alas it did not end up happening. It's a shame because some ion blasting action would have been a very welcomed part to this movie witch cost 150 million dollars to make yet lacked a single special effect. The fact that this movie did not have any CGI or even a single explosion made me wonder just where this 150 million dollars was spent, so I took it upon myself to do a little research. I found out that only 30 million dollars was spent on making the movie itself and the remaining 120 million dollars was spent mainly in two areas. The first of the two areas was for insurance. Apparently the insurance provider claimed that Rosie's' dominatrix outfit was a safety hazard due to the fact that a button or zipper could erupt at any moment thus projecting shrapnel into one of the cast or crew, and because of that fact they charged a ridicules amount to provide insurance for this film. The second area that used the biggest percentage of the budget was the Kraft Food Service. In between takes Rosie would put away so much food that it would make a full grown Grizzly Bear preparing for a winter long hibernation, look like Calista Flockheart having a small snack on The Richard Simmons Deal A Meal Plan. They had to up security because Rosie has such an assortment of foods and snacks in her movie trailer that several people mistakenly entered it thinking it was a Convenient Store, and started perusing various items that they wanted to purchase.

Men that are not interested in a life of impotence should steer clear of this movie. Rosie O'Donnell has the same effect, on the male reproductive system, as a blistering Hot Tub and a pair of tight fitting underpants. You know how in the Viagra commercials they warn that if you have an erceti0n for over a period of 12 hours you should consult a doctor. Well if this does happen and you do go see a doctor they take you into a private room and show you clips of this movie to try and resolve the problem.

The grisly image of Rosie O'Donnell exposed body as been burnt into my mind permanently. The sad part is that in wardrobe they selected a very concealing Matrix like leather outfit with trench coat for her to wear, but the abyss of here folds engulfed the majority of it leaving behind just what we saw in the film. I realized that there was only one way to get this nauseating image to go away for good. So I slowly walked to my DVD player, ejected the disc, and broke it into four pieces. I took one of the jagged pieces and held it to my right wrist and I was prepared to go on with what would surely rid me of this terror, until I remembered about my new found fear of God and how he so frowned upon suicide. So I apprehensively put down the serrated fragment of disc and was forced to continue living with this image etched in my brain for the rest of my days. I wrote this review in hopes of perhaps saving even just a one person from ending up with the same fate as mine. So please heed this warning and pass this movie onto the homeless and the Canadians.
