Evita

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

The story was one I wasn't very familiar with but it was interesting and the music was terrific. Antonio Bandares was great!... Full review

This movie has a good story. That's it. Everything else is crappy on so many levels. It isn't a horrible movie, it just never ends. Its like the real "Neverending Story". It is just so, so, soooo boring. The first 30... 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

i would say that madonna really made a good EVITA. it's proven madonna can act... only depending on what kind of movie. don't let yourself be swayed by the negative critics... go and watch it. it is really 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

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
