| Rating |  | | Date | April 28, 2005 | | Summary | The Berry Best (and FUNNIEST!) of Madonna's Many Bad Movies! | Content
 | This one ranks among the Top 10 Best Bad Movies of All Time in my new book, THE OFFICIAL RAZZIE MOVIE GUIDE (also available from amazon.com). Starring The Immaterial Girl as the inheritor of a multi-million-dollar estate who's criminally charged with screwing her lover to death, BODY OF EVIDENCE combines elements of BASIC INSTINCT, several Lana Turner courtroom dramas and ILSA: SHE WOLF OF THE SS. A kinky melange of supposedly sexy (but actually creepy) "adult" scenes, BODY also features comically over-acted testimony from the likes of Anne Archer and Frank Langella, a wonderfully uncomfortable performance from Willem DaFoe as Madonna's attorney and new bedroom buddy, and Madonna herself in what may be her sluttiest performance of all. We solemnly swear, this one's a real hoot -- with hooters to boot! |

| Madonna's track record with movies has not been too good. When this movie was released it was trashed by the critics, but I believe it was in part because it was released at the same time as her Sex book and Erotica CD. Most of the public were fed up with Madonna and sex and people basically ignored this movie and one of her best CD's, Erotica.
Madonna plays Rebecca Carlson who is accused of killing her lover with sex for his millions. Rebecca then gets involved with her attorney in some over the top sex scenes (candle wax and a broken light bulb). Madonna is particularily good during the trial scenes (her acting isn't as bad as some make it out to be)and the ending will blow you away, it definitely took me by surprise. I would definitely give this movie a chance and look past the fact that it is Madonna and just enjoy the movie. |

| Certainly the best film of all time, Madonna stars as a hot sex addict who loves to dominate her men. When the old man she's been seeing dies in a sex-related position, Madonna is fingered as the culprit. Since the old guy was very rich and Madonna stands to inherit tons of cash, she is taken to court and must prove her innocence. Represented by Willem Dafoe, she uses her feminine wiles to seduce him and the court. But is she telling the truth?
It's not like people buy this to see some spectacular acting, even though every last line is awesome and quote-worthy. Most people go to titter at the nudity, and you get some topless Madonna shots and some soft-focus nudes, so there's that. Don't be surprised if someone walks in while you're watching this and ask if you're watching a pornographic feature.
When the conclusion comes along, make sure to wipe your jaw off the floor. I know I did after the stunning plot twist that I didn't even guess until maybe twenty minutes in. |

| Madonna stars as a young woman accused to killing a man to get his money. Is she guilty? Willem DeFoe plays her lawyer who tries to prove her innocence. However, he gets emotionally involved with her and begins having doubts about his client's alibi. An erotic thriller...steamy at times. Madonna BURNS up the screen with her sexy body. YOW! |
