Movie Reviews of The Beguiled
Movie Review: Some what of a "B" movie but an interesting tale of greed
Summary: 3 Stars
Production/Editing is a little rough but what is interesting are all the subplots that never make it to the TV screen, such as; the incestuous relationship the head mistress of the Girls School had with her now deceased brother, or the fantasized threesome of the Mistress and senior teacher. It was worth the $$$, especially if you're an Eastwood fan. Plus having only seen it on TV before half the plot is edited out for TV so it's really a much different movie in its original form.Movie Review: Almost Porn!
Summary: 3 Stars
This movie is crazy. But of course The Clint is starring in this movie, and he is looking great, actually better with beard than shaven. This movie is so crazy that I think they should have gone the whole length and turned it in to some kind of porn movie. The Clint as porn star!Movie Review: Clint !
Summary: 3 Stars
I like all of Clint Eastwoods movies. Dont expect his usual
action packed movie though.
Movie Review: It is "Beguiling" That a Film Could Portray Women So Badly
Summary: 2 Stars
I am giving this movie one star for succeeding in sucking me into the story. I am giving it a second star for the opportunity to watch a young and tender Clint Eastwood.
Beyond that....this is one of those movies that ends so badly that I end up feeling resentful for having gotten engrossed in it.
This film portrays that a group of women will descend to any and every level, all in the hope of landing a man, and not even a spectacular one at that. I don't think so. This sells women SO short that I don't even know how to adequetely articulate it. Let's just say that The Beguiled is one huge discredit to females everywhere.
To the other reviewers that mentioned "recoiling" and "shrieking" in response to this movie, I say "spot on".
Movie Review: Nauseous
Summary: 1 Stars
A wretched movie. Should have been titled "The Scorned". A sick and loathful story of emotionally stunted, sexually repressed women ( mostly young ) in a treacherous competition for one manās affection. Deceit abound as the selfless young women put to the test their nascent sexual prowess. However, once a sense of rejection is felt, they will stop at nothing as Kidnapping, Torture, Mutilation, and Murder becomes condoned behavior, and mere inconvenience, in an attempt to force their will. I would compare this to "Henry: Portrait of A Serial Killer" as the darkest movie Iāve ever seen. Men will find this movie very objectionable, short of those with severe masochistic tendencies. As the movie depicts females as inherently satanistic, I doubt many women will like it either. Although Eastwood gives a very credible performance, the very premise of the movie is downright painful. The rest of the acting is not worth mentioning. Unless your a member of the Lorena Bobbitt fan club, I recommend you spare yourself the anguish of watching this movie.
