After hearing consistent negative views on this film I finally watched it on terrestrial TV and through certain flaws found many good points that have been ignored in favour of sardonic comments from the Madonna bandwagon bunch who tend to slag her off the minute she takes a new role on.
Okay Meryl Streep she isn't but her acting in this film is quite good and she only struggles in the more emotional moments to the close of the film. I am no militant Madonna or Guy Ritchie fan and this film has an easy narrative, developed characters from Madonnas bitch to the leading man who had charisma, humour and the ability to get the coldest heart melt for him when things go sour.
I would repudiate that this film deserved so many razzie awards and if their is a celluloid witch hunt in film making then this films been dunked on a wooden chair and burnt at the stake without a fair trial.
This film is witty, entertaining, and has characters you feel for if you can get past the stigma that is inevitable when Madonna stars in a film and can watch it with the intelligence of drawing your own conclusions then you will find it has more to shout home about than to shout at Madonna or Guy Ritchie about.
Recommended and better then the original with some good scenic imagery from a director who's only true rasberry was his latest film 'Revolver'.
