Evita (DVD, 1998, Widescreen Spanish)

Don't cry to me, Argentina

I love this movie. The story is entertaining, the scenes dark and moving. Madonna tells a well played story of a woman driven by fear, loneliness and yes, greed.
The music and lyrics will stay with you, the story will haunt you. Prepare to Google everything about Eva Duarte you can find. Vollständige Rezension lesen

Madonna's promise was well-kept.

This synopsis of Argentinian politics starts with a subtle opening about Eva Duarte that is easily missed, and it illustrates the perseverance (some would say opportunism required of Eva to climb out of her modest circumstances. The photography is good, and it captures the spirit of mass demonstrations.

A key feature of this movie for me, however, is Madonna's singing. I was never a fan of either her image or her singing. Many Argentinians were outraged when she got the part of Eva Perone. Madonna answered the demonstrations by pledging to honor the image of Eva Perone. Both Madonna's Eva-image and Madonna's singing are wonderful and a total counterpoint to her concerts at the time. Listening to the soundtrack through headphones shows how technically skilled she rendered her phrases. She absolutely kept her pledge to the Argentinian people.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Madonna brings Evita to life

Incredible music score!! Madonna is a fabulous singer and an under-rated actress. Antonio Banderas could be better and is what keeps this from a 5 star rating.

Very unengaging movie

I was aware it was a musical but the whole movie was just singing and no talking to explain or engage the plot. Very boring. But since it was cheap no big deal but would not recommend it.

Nostalgia for Evita

The film is far from perfect, but the catchy score and a good performance by Antonio Banderas along with Madonna's vocals are enjoyable.

Breath taking.

This is the best for Banderas. He has proved himself a fine actor
