Batwings 12,695 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 We all know Madonna has a reputation for being a bad actress, but she has had her moments throughout her career. In your opinion, what is Madonna's greatest acting role? IMO: -- Suddenly Seeking Susan -- Even though she was basically playing herself. -- Who's That Girl -- I really don't know why this movie is panned so much. It's a cute rom-com, and Madonna does well in her role. -- A League of Their Own -- She's pretty good in this one, but she has like, what, 15 minutes total screen time? And somehow she's the second-from-the-top listed cast member? -- Evita -- Of course she's great in this, but basically all of her dialogue is in song, so that probably made a difference.

Bubblegum Bitch 18,934 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Unfortunately, I only watched The Next Best Thing and Swept Away. And what can I say, these movies are not her Magnum Opus. However, I love TNBT due to several reasons, and this movie also has a very good soundtrack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very rare for me to stop watching a movie halfway through, but I stopped watching Swept Away about 50 minutes into it. It's really atrocious. And it wasn't just Madonna's performance. The whole movie was awful. People like to praise Guy Ritchie as a directing genius, but he absolutely stank with this one. Spoiler Also, I've never liked Guy Ritchie even before he was married to Madonna because he tries WAY TOO hard to be the British Quentin Tarantino and sucks at it. His movies are so overrated, I could puke. But that's just my two cents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Desperately Seeking Susan was her best. it was her first film she ever starred in- Spoiler (technically second film but considering that a certain sacrifice was made before her rise to fame and she only had a brief cameo in vision quest.. DSS is her first film) so she didn't really know what she was doing. She was all natural and played the character well. Despite owning the VHS copy, I haven't gotten around to finding a cheap secondhand vhs deck to watch Who's That Girl.. kinda bummed but atleast I don't need to pay for a streaming service to watch it now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

proxy 730 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Evita is her best role, but you forget **** Tracy & Shadows and Fog by Woody Allen, she was good in both. I also like her small role in 4 rooms. Her best roles are musical ones and this just shows how Madonna is great in delivering emotions thru music, this is what she understand and does the best. I mean just watch this, shes amazing here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
