Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
purplemonkey200 Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Madonna...and she usually does no wrong in my eyes! However, I think when you have a music video director make your film instead of a film maker...that's what you get; music videos! I, of course, am referring to the live performances in this piece. They're ALL edited, chopped, and superimposed with graphic effects––not a good representation of a live performance from this tour at all! I should know, I saw her 6 times on this tour in '04. The behind the scenes footage is nice...but I REALLY would've liked to see at least ONE performance in its entirety! Please Madonna, for your fans' sake, release an unedited version. Better yet, release a full-length performance of the Re-Invention Tour!
toddcolemansmee i FINALLY saw 'i'm going to tell you a secret' tonight from a copy someone had and was absolutely stunned for words when i saw it. i found the whole film enormously riveting and gripping...and yet i am more stunned that there hasn't been more hype about it.is this because a lot of people still haven't seen it yet? even on IMDb. i have read reviews by people and external reviews by matthew rettenmund (madonna encyclopedia author) and everyone seemed to say it was good but not fantastic.i actually thought the film was far more ambitious than truth or dare and had a depth missing in first documentary.i absolutely loved it and cried a couple of times! why has this film not been hyped as much as it should be? any thoughts?
jradioj I'm a big Madonna fan but I found this documentary very boring. The concert footage is excellent. Unfortunately, it looks like this film has the ONLY footage available from the Reinvention tour. (Unless you find one of the numerous bootlegs online) I've tried to watch it several times, but I always fall asleep. While Madonna is a nicer person in this film, it's just not as interesting as "Truth or Dare". Some highlights include her father's vineyard, her children's lives and drinking at the pub with her husband. It was interesting to watch Madonna's relationship with Guy Ritchie. It proves that for "Every Beautiful Woman There is A Man who is Bored with Her." If you are a fan, it's worth watching, but you won't want to watch it over and over again. Once is enough.
dikkiepost Finally after a long year of waiting i got to see this movie. My expectations for this "Rockumentary" where very high and i was hoping i could see this as a sequel to "Truth or Dare (in bed with Madonna)". But nowhere this documentary can be compared to the 1991 Madonna documentary, the only similar thing these two "docu's" share is the use for black & white footage for off stage scenes, and full color footage for on stage scenes. The great difference between these two docu's is Madonna herself, and it is really great to see that the same egocentric woman who shocked the world by touching herself on stage has grown to be such a tender and caring person who now uses the "shock-element" to make a difference in the world. The docu begins with a stunning new video of "the Beast Within" which is perhaps the most dark and scary thing Madonna ever did. After that you can see Madonna at work in the studio mixing the soundtrack for her Re-invention tour. Step by step you see the preparations for such a massive tour, the audition of the dancers, rehearsing songs, shooting of backdrop screens. Then the docu follows Madonna from opening night until the last show in Lissabon, and also shows some of the strongest performances she did during the tour. Songs like "Vogue", "American Life", "Like a Prayer" and more. After some emotional footage of the last show the docu shows Madonna's visit to Israel. In my opinion the docu would be better of without these scenes. I do understand that this also is an important part of Madonna's life, but some of the footage you get to see is so hard and depressing that it leaves more impact then the 100 minutes before. I think it is save to say that although this docu isn't that good as "Truth or Dare" you won't be disappointed by this one.
