Product Details

Synopsis: Sex bomb Rebecca Carlson played by Madonna, parades around naked in front of the open windows of her houseboat at all hours, even while the lobstermen catch crabs. When Rebecca's latest conquest, a multi-millionaire, dies of a heart attack while making love to her she becomes a suspect. With eight million dollars bequeathed to Rebecca in her lover's will, District Attorney Robert Garrett (Joe Mantegna) can't shake the idea that she killed her rich lover with wild sex knowing that he had a weak heart, just so that she could get her mitts on the money. However, Frank Dulaney (Willem Dafoe), Rebecca's lawyer, thinks differently, suspecting instead the millionaire's private secretary Joanne Braslow (Anne Archer), who was dumped by the millionaire for Rebecca. Besides which, Frank, attracted to Rebecca himself, starts a sadomasochistic affair with her and throws legal ethics out the window.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am ashamed, but I love this movie, December 29, 2001

By	michaelyorke34@hotmail.com (morecambe, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Body of Evidence (Rated) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Ok, so the plot of this film may be laughable - the only person who seems to break the law
is dafoe's character (who illegally has sexual relations with his client, and commits rape),
but that's not the point of watching this movie.
The reason I would recommend this film is simple - watching madonna, the sexiest woman ever,
doing what she does best. She looks incredible, and her performance is excellent. The only
criticisms I would have of 'body of evidence' are that we seem to see dafoe naked more often
than madonna, and the sex scenes have large sections edited out of them.
The film's most (in)famous scene, where madonna seduces dafoe, ties him up with his own belt
then teases and tortures him by pouring hot wax onto his body is, in my opinion, the sexiest ever
commited to celluloid, with great preformances from both actors. Quite frankly, I can't beleive
how lucky willem dafoe is, getting paid to film this scene with madonna.
The 'twist' at the end of the movie is predictable and pretty dull, but I give 'body of evidence'
five out of five for madonna's unbelievable body.

1.0 out of 5 stars This body's a stiff, January 8, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Body of Evidence (Unrated Version) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The spectacularly mediocre Madonna once again wastes valuable celluloid trying to convince the moviegoing public that she can act. (For all I know, she might be sexy, but you have to be able to act to exude it on screen.) I pity the incalculably more talented Julianne Moore for having this piece of dung staining her resume.

1.0 out of 5 stars Ridiculously predictable, January 2, 2001

By	Alyssa (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Body of Evidence (Unrated Version) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This movie is predictable from the beginning to the end. Even the incredibly sexy Willem Defoe could not redeem the plot. Although he was the only thing keeping me from stopping to watch the movie.
