Forget all about (most) of Madonna's other films. Yes, she made a handful of movies that are good, but this is the one that actually won her a Golden Globe for Best Actress. Yes, she did, folks! And what's more is... Full review

Evita is the Life story of Eva Peron who married Juan Peron, future president of Argentina, and became one of the most powerful women in the world in her time. When one sees Madonna they will probably turn away just because... Full review

This is a spectacular - and very unique - film production. If you don't have the capacity to appreciate such a work, admit that and move on. Don't bring down the review grade of this movie just because you can't understand... Full review

This movie was decent in the realms of musicals which I honestly believe there hasn't been a really good one since the 50's because no one seems to know how to make a good one anymore however this one was good.... Full review

The movie was great. Madonna and Antonio Banderas were awesome in that movie. The acting was great. Most of the events really did happen in Eva Peron's life.... Full review

Madonna definately had her part in this play and I don't mean that as a compliment. The music was definately catchy and there were some great actors in the movie. It took advantage of a whole cultures weakness however. A lot... Full review

you'll love "Evita.....If nothing else, the comedy is worth it!....However, if you are interested in seeing Madonna actually perform as a decent actress, and like a good historical story as well....While I grew up loving Madonna's music, I never thought.... ... Full Review

Dreadful songs being poorly sung and a story being poorly told.....Considerably better music (the ditty about wanting to be part of the "Buenos Aires big apple" is particularly awful).....Madonna struggles her way through the role of Eva Peron, the third most famous thing to come out of Argentina after Diego Maradona and tax evasion.....From start to finish, 'Evita' is just one long, painful 134-minute noise..... ...

Madonna and Banderas are both excellent - and the movie is very insightful. Oh, well, I like music videos. I loved the movie. The music made it fun and gave the movie a new twist. In fact, the story might have been boring without the music. ... Full Review

If it is not one of the great movie musicals, it is close enough. Evita'' was never meant to be a lesson in Argentine history, but it became one of the great musicals of all time anyway. ... Full Review

The only reason why this is not the perfect musical is because it drags in certain spots and doesn't completely hold your attention some of the time. Much of Juan's success in office was thanks to Eva (Evita as the people called her), who was one of Argentina's most popular figures ever. ... Full Review
