Summary: Madonna is very sexy in this mediocre thriller
Review: The "Body of Evidence" in the title is Madonna's. It's also the murder weapon, the film's premise being that she murdered her lover by making invigorating love to him, causing the rich old guy to drop dead from excitement. I suppose this could, and actually has, happened. Then again I have an active imagination.At any rate we could also call this "Madonna on top" or "Madonna in charge" or maybe "She can show you the power you can have from the prone position." One thing about Madonna, other than having no shame (and I admire her for that) is that she can crawl and not feel the slightest bit reduced. Another thing about Madonna is her unerring sense of how to appeal to her primary audience, namely young girls (now grown women). During the height of her career a few years back Madonna was the woman most admired by teenaged and pre-teenaged girls. (You could look it up, but just think of the song, "Papa Don't Preach," or her role as the young free-spirit in Desperately Seeking Susan (1985).) And you want to know why? Because she was perceived as having it all: fame, fortune, personal freedom, the attention of the males, and, most important, she achieved her success through hard work and a certain audaciousness that suggests courage, the kind of unmitigated self-expression that most of us can only dream about. She's not especially bad in this mediocre thriller, nor especially good. The script is ridiculous and the treatment without a hint of nuance or subtlety. William Dafoe and Joe Mantegna seemed to be acting on rote and Anne Archer was, alas, a wash. The problem is the movie is so obviously fake that it's like watching bad TV. There's no point other than kinky sex. I'm not sure why Madonna agreed to do this. I can't believe she needed the money, nor can I believe she didn't care about her reputation as a performing artist. I think she was seduced by the "power over men" fantasy of the script. I also think her appearance here exposes her weakness: simply put, she has bad taste because this could not in any way further her career. On the plus side she was very sexy.

Summary: An unsexy "Body"
Review: I absolutely love Madonna, but I have to wonder what she was thinking with this choice in films. One of the worst films I have ever seen; it was painful to watch. The premise is interesting, but the way it plays out is just dull and lifeless. There are some great actors here (Willem Dafoe, Joe Mantegna, and even Julianne Moore) but they are all just wasted and are overwhelmed by the ridiculous sex scenes. What is supposed to be shocking and erotic comes off (no pun intended) as sterile, clinical, and sometimes even laughable. Madonna's performance is a mystery as well. It's like she's not even there half the time. She is so cold and detached. Now perhaps that is the point of the character, but it still doesn't play right. This film works much better as camp. I mean, tell me that the scene with Julianne Moore slapping Madonna doesn't instantly conjure up images of Krystle and Alexis!

Summary: Deserves NO stars!
Review: What a waste of talent - Willem Defoe's. He is a fine actor who thrilled audiences in evocative movies like "The Last Temptation Of Christ" and "Mississippi Burning," so what was he doing in this thing? (It's an insult to movies to label it as such). As for Madonna, the queen of self promotion, all it was was a chance to prove that she is one of the WORST actresses of all time and show off her body, which we have already seen enough of even without viewing this cheap, trashy, thing. Don't waste your time. I wish I hadn't.

Summary: A good film that Madonna haters love to slack....sad
Review: What is it about Madonna people hate so much? I personally think she just has so much fun it makes everyone sick. This movie had great acting, a better plot then Basic Instinct, deeper suspense then Sliver, and much more sex appeal then most movies of this kind. If your not one of those people trying to crucify Madonna, give this film a shot.

Summary: Best movie of its kind!
Review: This has to be the best thriller ever made. I just love Madonna. She may be far from the naughty stage of her career, but that doesn't mean her fans can't look back and enjoy this piece of work. I recommend that you listen to the Erotica album, thumb through the Sex book, then watch this movie---Madonna could put Viagra out of business. Only prudes and those foolish (but well-meaning) Republicans could possibly dislike Madonna. A+

Summary: Great Movie!
Review: I just don't understand why critics & those people who dislike her,always criticize on whatever movies she's done. Anyway, she's got her own style & talent in her career and that's why she's one of the GREAT LADIES OF THE CENTURY....MADONNA UR THE BEST!
