I love this movie so much

Sadly Over-hyped

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Prince. The kissing in this film is ridiculous and off putting, The acting is natural yet very shallow. There are plenty of films that deserve a far lower rating than this though. I would not probably watch this twice, yet once was quite enjoyable. The dance routines were very well done,there were inconsistencies in the film, but you can overlook them easily considering it is a light hearted film; The idea of the film felt slightly lame here and there, but not slow enough to break my concentration. I like Prince and understand what he was trying to achieve' This is not as good as purple rain, but a close second musically.

Christopher Tracy (Prince) and his brother Tricky are in the south of France scamming the rich. Outrageous shipping heiress Mary Sharon (Kristin Scott Thomas) is set to get $50 million on her 21st birthday. They go to her birthday party to try to scam her. She is taken with the wild boys but the problem is that her father (Steven Berkoff) is not happy. Christopher starts to fall for his target.I don't know if Prince is making a comedy, a spoof, or a whatever. He's acting completely different than almost everybody else. It's oddly unreal. It's almost amateurish. The problem is that he's the director and nobody is able to tell him to do it differently. He needs to figure what he wants and hire a good director to help him achieve it.

It's understandable how most critics dismissed Prince's Under the Cherry Moon. I'm sure they expected a movie in the vein of Purple Rain, but they missed the point. Under the Cherry moon is at it's heart a light-hearted musical comedy that's as visually pleasing and funny as any of the musicals so popular during the golden ages 1930 to the Forties. It has a solid cast from top to bottom and everyone plays it tongue in cheek. This movie would have been quite at home during the Hollywood golden era. I give Prince his do, Under the Cherry Moon is a delightful nod to an era gone by. Made for an 80's audience that just didn't get, I'm glad that I did.

Price made a cult movie, choosing black and white.Kristen Scott, is brilliance (or: OK, trying to the end) in silly romance as in the movie, without her, it would not be the same. That makes this movie worded, and to watch over, enjoyable for several times (especialy with the Tricky things). To put some more lines, because I hate to involve your own experience on the film. It is a beautiful film to watch over if you mist it in the 80's and was did do (and liked) his 'Purple Rain'. For sure this is nothing like that, but it is still a movie treasure of a various artist. Ik like the untimed moment.
