Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
garthlotel In one of her most unforgettable and mesmerising roles, Kidman electrifies in every scene of this wonderful black comedy. If there is any doubt in your mind that she is one of the greatest, most versatile actresses of our times, see this film.
Filipe Neto This film by Gus van Sant is based on the ambitions of Suzanne Stone, a weather girl from a local TV station who wants to achieve fame and success at any cost. When her rich husband becomes a problem, she decides to arrange a lover to kill him. A simple plot, but with good premises for what Van Sant wanted: a kind of black comedy about sex, ambition and manipulation. He skillfully presents most of the film as a documentary, using cinematography and some visual and sound tricks to give more authenticity to that illusion. Nicole Kidman carries the film in her back with grace and malice, and seems very ease with her character, a girl who uses all the weapons to get what she wants. The remaining actors make a good supporting work, but are completely overshadowed by her talent.This movie is likely to appeal to black humor lovers. It's not a thriller or mystery movie, it's all pretty obvious to the public since the beginning. However, Kidman's performance is already a reason to make the film worth watching.
juneebuggy 'To Die For' is a dark comedy about a small town weather reporter who is determined to be famous -at any cost, using her feminine wiles to arrange for some mixed up teens to murder her husband. It's been filmed in a documentary style with various interviews from the teens, husbands family and Suzanne Stone. Kidman does a pretty fantastic job as Stone, appearing seductive, cold, naïve and driven to the point of, well, murder. It was nice to see her back in the day when she still had some meat on her bones and the use of facial expressions.Joaquin Phoenix blew me away here especially when you see how young he is, he's just a boy. The movie itself was okay, no big twists or anything. 7/21/14
LeonLouisRicci There have been Orwellian shout-outs and warnings about "False Realities" for ever. But that doesn't stop them from becoming real. People Magazine has absolutely nothing to do with "real" People. Fox News shamelessly proclaiming "Fair and Balanced", and so on.This is a smaller and much more low-budgeted Satire about TV and Celebrity and the blurring of "Truth" validated through Media than the great "Network" (1976) and the over rated "Broadcast News" (1987). But what it lacks in financing it makes up for in a witty, dark, and piercing Script along with Artsy, sure handed Direction. Add to that some spot on Performances by a fresh (at the time) Cast of Newcomers.It is a relevant and timeless Tale (adapted from a real Tabloid tragedy) that cuts sharply and is disturbing to watch at times and is a powerfully made and under rated Movie that is one of Gus Van Zant's best and still stands as top tier Nicole Kidman.
