THE MOVIE - PURPLE RAIN - ESSENTIAL MOVIE*******

Well, i know,many critics didn´t like this movie.. but some of them loved it. like Rolling stone magazine... and myself.

Everytime i talk 2 people and when i´m reading the topics on this forum. people say" i love the purple rain soundtrack, but the movie sucks...""""

THIS MOVIE DO NOT SUCK---



ThE directing is good , the Music is ESSENTIAL. and by the way... 99% of the cast are musicians and they can act!!!!! biggrin i know that many prince fans complain about the acting.. hey why complain... ? if u watch a new movie from the 2003 or 2005 with Jennifer lopez.. or any modern "looking good""actor/actres, u can see that the cast in the "PURPLE RAIN" movie are so much better.....

Prince is good,, he´s not bad..... he even cries in this movie!...
appolonia is okej.. better then lopez!
morris day - rocks!
the directing in this movie is superb - just look at take me with u " sceneS or "darling nikkI"scenes.....

THIS MOVIE ROCKS ANY HARDCORE FAN THAT LOVES PRINCE NOWS
THAT THIS MOVIE WAS A BLOCKBUSTER IN THE SUMMER OF 1984....

I bought the Purple Rain DVD yesterday and I finally saw the movie!

And I still speechless! Both my friend and I were blown away by it!

It made me more fan than I am!

The movie is a masterpiece!

Some of the issues it deals R still controversial and the way some aspect were filmed made me get goosebumps! Especially the ones dealing with The Kid's family and his relationship with Apollonia!

Another thing I have 2 add is that Apollonia is Hot!!!! love

Also Lisa & Wendy r best lesbians I ever seen! "I'm not cast a dark cloud over your head! lol "

Guess I have now 2 go and purify myself on lake minnetonka! lol

The movie was great then and now. It was so head of it's time....the camara angles, the motorcycle, the music, the homlife, relationships and the rilvary.

Look at any movie that tries to do any of these now and it looks stupid. Any time I see a motorcycle in a movie I have to turn it off because it looks so stupid. JUST MY OPINION ~ PRIME

Oh please. This movie's a piece of shit.

The only reason it's so fun to watch is because I love Prince and all the songs in it, and it's so hilariously bad at times.

Terrible acting, silly storyline with tons of plot holes, and totally vain.

Like I said, it's fun to watch, but it's really nothing as an actual movie.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Prince was making a no alchohol statement.

Anytime you see intoxication in his movies, it's always followed by a statement of sorts or a bad event, such as Ingrid Chavez being hit by that truck in Graffiti Bridge, though I wouldn't have called that bad--it afterall, did signall that the movie was almost over and the scene was funny as hell. lol

the music of the movie is a lifesaver or it would probably bomb at the box office.

If anyone has the chance look for the script Purple Rain was taken from titled Dreams.
In the original script his mother was an alcoholic and it hurt him to see women he loved in that way.
That is why he was about to hit Appolonia and he had to restrain himself.
The movie didn't stray too far from the script. It is a good read and it explains a lot.

Purple Rain was a very entertaining film. It still stands the test of time in 2005. I must say that terrific editing and good post-production tactics gave the film some quality. Even though most predicted it would fail, it blew up. The movie was comedic, dramatic, and sexual. It will always be one of my favorite movies of all time.

Also, I think the love scene was one of the most sensual love scenes in motion picture history.

P.S.: Hey Warner Brothers, we want the uncut version. NOW!!!!!

The film itself is actually pretty cheesy--bad acting, weak story line, sexist subplot, where the woman are treated like trash by the men, for their amusement.

Except for the stage scenes, the film as a whole is not very good. But, the shot of Appolonia's boobs will always be seared into my brain.
