5 out of 5 stars Dangerous Liaisons - Movie   October 17, 2007

If you like historical drama with a little spice, this is a great movie. Glenn Close is fabulous and the ending is perfect.

"Liaisons" had been filmed before (Roger Vadim did a modern-day version in 1960) and would be again (1989's "Valmont" and 1999's "Cruel Intentions"), but this is the best of the lot, boasting a lush production, and a deliciously wicked performance from Close. Malkovich, though not handsome enough for the Valmont role, injects a sly, predatory sexuality that compensates nicely. Pfeiffer has never been better (or prettier), and watch for the vision of budding womanhood that is Uma Thurman. A clever, eye-filling treat.


5 out of 5 stars Smart. Very smart.   June 8, 2007

5 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!   January 3, 2007

This was a great read. Easy to understand and much more indepth and indetail than the movie, which is also excellent. I'm a huge fan of period books and movies and this is one of the best. John Malkovich surely would make any girl's heart flutter. He is charming as Valmont and plays the character exactly as I expected after reading the book. He's what makes the movie.


1 out of 5 stars I much preferred Cruel Intentions   November 14, 2006
Dumb Blonde Reviewing (In my bed)
3 out of 24 found this review helpful

Of course, I saw Cruel Intentions first, and it appealed to me more because of Ryan & Reese. (No longer Hollywood's Golden Couple, if they can't last, what hope is there for us mere mortals?) You always prefer the one you see first, and for me, it is definitely Cruel Intentions. Plus, I have a tendancy to detest 'costume' films, and can never sit through them (Emma, Sense & Sensibility etc).

Although there is a lot similar between Dangerous Liasions & Cruel Intentions (many of the lines stay practically the same), and Swoosie Kurtz, who plays Madame de Volange, went on to play Dr. Greenbaum in Cruel Intentions (in both films, Valmont seduces her daughter), there's just something magical missing. I couldn't tell who was who in Dangerous Liasions, and Keanu Reeves, is infamously stiff in this. (Loosen up, man!) I just couldn't sit through it, and I always know when I start films or even books, I know I cannot sit through it.

Unfortunately Dangerous Liasions is not for me, although I'm the only reviewer who seems to think this. Everyone else is raving about it. But you have to be really into the film, and be able to keep your eyes above chest height on the actresses.
