Rachel Weisz Is Worth the Investment, September 25, 2003
This review is from: I Want You [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This may be an entirely fanboy attitude, but I WANT YOU is by no stretch of the imagination a great film by any measure. It doesn't boast one tremendous storyline you'll not soon forget once the ending is near. It doesn't bluster with great social significance. It doesn't offer a moral statement by which the world can be a better place. Simply put, I WANT YOU is a character piece that revolves entirely around the incredible Rachel Weisz. Modesty aside, she's a beautiful woman, and the sexually explicit scenes played out here are not only tastefully well-done but appear to be closer to "real sex" than "cinema sex." It's the subtle nuances that Weisz brings to her character -- yes, in even the non-sex scenes -- that shows her true talent and gift with the camera. Frankly, I'm amazed that she isn't getting more artistic work, based on the grace she shows in I WANT YOU.

If I was a man I would......., August 22, 2001
This review is from: I Want You [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Find Rachel Weisz, and ........congradulate her on her A+ performance in I Want You. Not a good movie for younger kids though. It is very sexually oriented. The plot is simple really, but there are a lot of skeletons in the closet in this movie. I think the characters are very easy to get interested. I like how the characters move through only one set though. I give it a four thumbs way way up!

5.0 out of 5 stars
simple plot, really explorative cinematography, October 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: I Want You [VHS] (VHS Tape)
if this is the same movie i saw recently then this is a really good film. Perfect for those film enthusiast who enjoy good film textures and techniques. The compositional quality was good. The story was simple, i liked it that way. and you might only realise its simplicity after the fact. art film lovers, you can include this. The film has its problems though in building roles but it isnt too intrusive. worth a second watch hope you enjoy it... and i loved the music, peformed by RARE and in particular one by Elvis Costello and the Attractions ( I Want You ) yeah its the same name. Its from Elvis' Blood and Chocolate albumn 1979
