Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
kyliebites the acting in this film is wooden and not dynamic at all. The lead actress' characterisation of a 1920s was only made apparent because she actually said the year out loud. She saunters around with a swagger that is more modern than anything, and her voice fell into a predictable vocal pattern that when coupled with her obnoxious behaviour, soon becomes incredibly annoying.The script itself was poorly written; many of the lines between the two female leads were painfully forced and when delivered, gave the impression that the writer had no clue about how women talk(in general or to each other). My favourite moment has got to be when they were looking at the 'Easter eggs' and Helen's father gleefully exclaims ''and that was how Aphrodite made the lesbians!' The film in general lacked subtlety, making it hard to watch without some eye-rolling at the inevitable clichés and cheesiness. Even the intimate scenes sometimes felt cheap, with the exaggerated acting on the lead's part.
faerieface77 I couldn't watch this movie without cringing at the lead girl. She really was hard to watch. I felt like it was like playing dress up for her.This was apparently 1926 and I couldn't tell how old she was or what. She walked like Paris Hilton, Not Greta Garbo. She didn't seem to know anything about how an upperclass girl acted in 26. Also, did she have an accent? did she not? I really hope I don't see any more of this idiot.The lead actor though wasn't too bad. I felt like he really carried the movie for me.It was an OK movie over all. I won't watch it again. I can't bear the audacious acting.
joraromanov Sappho really is like a modern Greek tragedy - it's set on a Greek island, and it uses all the conventions of that ancient form of drama - it all happens in one place, in one month, with only one line of action, and the characters are carried forward by fate towards an end that they can't avoid.And it works! It seems new and fresh and interesting in this age when all movies look the same. It's a real tearjerker.For movie buffs who wonder where the movie was made, it was made in Crimea on the Black Sea. The main location is the Vorontsov Palace. Lots of movies have been made in Crimea, but this is perhaps the most beautiful of them all - the locations and the photography are superb!!!
Morgan Horrible film. I would not recommend this to anyone. While a film is being developed its creators should be asking themselves "So what? Who cares?" and they should be able to answer that question in regards to their movie. At the end of this I felt myself asking "So what? Who cares?" Which is incredibly bad.This film suffers from terrible acting, directing and writing, and its seemingly only redeeming qualities are it locations and occasionally good cinematography.Honestly, do not bother with this film. It's a glorified soft core porn, and the porn isn't even very good.
