VHS Movie Reviews of Wicked Lady
Movie Review: Loved it, Dunaway rocks!
Summary: 4 Stars
Dunaway made this one when she was living in England raising her son and still married to Terry O'Neill. I love it! She looks great, she's in most of the scenes, nice costumes, and a fairly good plot and dialog. Wicked she is, she eats it up. This isn't Oscar material, and the cast knows it, it's just a lot of fun. This isn't one of Dunaway's Top 5, but it's totally watchable and you see her in most of the scenes. I would not rate it quite as good as Eyes of Laura Mars or even Supergirl, but it's better than The Temp and The Chamber. If you don't dig Dunaway, you probably will only want to see it once. Otherwise, it's something you would want for your extended Dunaway collection.Movie Review: Wicked acting! But a good story.
Summary: 3 Stars
Faye (overacting) Dunaway stars as Lady Skelton...a rich woman who must have something that someone else has...Money, a woman's fiancee'. She later turns into a robber on horseback to gain more wealth & meets Jackson...another robber & falls in love with him. She later betrays him when she finds him in bed with another woman (Marina Sirtis) Highlight of the film is the catfight between Sirtis & Dunaway WITH WHIPS! (whoa!) I must add there's a lot of "naughty cheesecake" displayed with some "very interesting" bedroom scenes. (Hence the "R" rating.)Movie Review: Brilliant Tony Banks soundtrack
Summary: 3 Stars
The best thing about this film is the soundtrack, written by Tony Banks (Genesis). Otherwise it is a dated bawdy romp.
Movie Review: Good costumes, overacting, big stars getting a payday .
Summary: 2 Stars
The highlight of this film is a fight scene between Marina Sirtis (Counselor Troi of Star Trek) and Faye Dunaway. Ms. Sirtis is topless throughout the scene. If you want to get the video for this reason then you will be happy. Otherwise forget it. Faye Dunaway puts in an acting performance, that if the movie was supposed to be funny, would be hilarious. Instead she just looks foolish. The costumes and scenery are quite lavish and besides Ms. Dunaway you will recognize the other actors. I think the producers were aiming high and probably spent a lot of money. The film just lacks umph.
