I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
I would disagree with the previous user comment. Miami Rhapsody was both funny and intelligent. Indeed it saunters along with the rhythm of a Woody Allen flick but this is simply because it captures characters in dialouge rarely heard in most Hollywood films. Furthermore...it was truly refreshing to get to see Sarah Jessica Parker in a role (pre-Sex in the City) that really uses her talents as both as comedian and dramatist. It was super refreshing to see a neurotic thinking womens role that toyed with the notion of marriage and commitment. We may think it is overdone now with the re-runs of Sex in the City and all...but put yourself back in 1995. So Yeah...I liked it.
If I had gone by the reviews I've seen of this movie, I never would've watched it, and that would've been my incredible lost. This movie is fun, witty and amusing in a way that kept me entertained the whole way through.
Hmmm...Sometimes I watch this movie with the mute on. I just enjoy seeing all the scenes from my former hometown. I have to say that Kevin Pollack gives an absolutely fantastic performance as the philandering heartless husband. However, his paring with the mythically-sized Naomi Campbell is about as unlikely as a marriage between Howard Stern and Dr. Laura.Watch it if there's nothing else on...especially if you live up North and it's winter. Seeing palm trees and sun, even on TV, can greatly reducing the symptons associated with Seasonal Affective Disorder. Don't forget the mute button!
Dull look at several couples who are no longer able to relate to each other so they either break off the relationship or start sleeping around. This was painful to sit through for me but it did point out that the boy/girl stuff is more flash than bang.
