Watch Don Juan DeMarco For Free

Wonderful Movie

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I watched this little charmer last night with my spouse and not only is it a fine discussion of true of love and understanding, but whose view of reality IS correct. The performances are understated and low key but Brando uses his face expertly to reflect pain, wisdom and wistful thought. Here he encounters a kid who is bezocko but lives in a wonderful fantasy world of his own ... and what is wrong with that. This Don Juan takes over his own thought processes. In time, who IS the therapist and who is the patient? The banter is first rate. This almost unknown charmer is well worth a glass of wine on a beach with wind in your hair, and if it ends happily? Why not.

A stupid movie that's only plot line is for a young punk to imagine himself the "greatest lover" while he delights to envision and live his sexual fantasies thru another, the psychiatrist who takes pity on his disassociation with reality.The psychiatrist gets stirred to the point where he begins reliving the fantasies in his mind with his wife, who he has basically ignored and overrun their entire married life.Furthermore, the film borders on the surreal because the viewer never knows what is true and what isn't. Once doped, the young punk retells information that the psychiatrist told him about another centerfold-obsessive as if it was his life (and without the overrated accent).Therefore, the obviously drugged punk is "rescued" by the psychiatrist and his wife back to an island where he was supposedly romantically involved with the centerfold before disillusioning her (so much so that she ended up demeaning herself in near-naked photographs), and she is there to make a "happy ending" although strangely unrealistic for the viewer - since what is true and what isn't is obviously under question. Is the kid under another delusion? Did the psychiatrist notify the centerfold of the punk's change in heart? The viewer is left with too many questions to make sense.The entire film was nothing but a waste of time for the male libido in the unreal world of sexual fantasy. And any individual who admits to being with 1503 (remember the last one who even came back), I wouldn't want to be in the same building with. Think of the germs!I will finish by quoting a popular saying: "A great lover is not a man who romances a different woman every night. A great lover is one who romances the same woman for a lifetime."

Johnny Depp plays a delusional man who thinks he's Don Juan DeMarco, a legendary lover. When he's on top of a billboard, the police brings in Dr. Jack Mickler (Marlon Brando) to talk the jumper down. Jack is retiring in 10 days, and struggles to get him for his swan song. As everybody gets to know the kid, they start to fall under his spell.Johnny Depp is incredible in this. His magnetism is evident just with him in that costume. The restaurant scene at the start is funny and sets the character up perfectly. Depp is probably the only actor who could have done this character correctly. When every woman goes crazy for him, it's actually believable.As for Brando, it's probably his best performance in awhile. That's not a big praise since he hasn't been in a good movie for over a decade before this movie. His presence is big enough to counter weight Depp's magnetism, and I'm not making fun of his weight. He is basically playing the Robin Williams damaged psychiatrist role in 'Good Will Hunting'.The story isn't much. There are no real surprises, or real insights into mental health. The character is more poetry than reality. And I'm not sure the delusional flashbacks are that compelling. I actually think an early reveal of his real life and a more tragic true love story would make those flashbacks more compelling. For Johnny Depp as Don Juan alone, I would recommend this movie. Otherwise, the movie doesn't have a big enough true story befitting of Don Juan DeMarco.

I was very disappointed in this movie. I rented it with such great expectations from a movie that has Marlon Brando and Johnny Depp in one and in the same movie. Alas, there was nothing but flat characters, the silliest accent I have ever heard an actor come up with, and suspension of disbelief was so hard I had to call a friend to moan what a silly movie it was. In fact was it not for my love for both Marlon and Depp I would have given it a zero! In an interview with the Actor's Studio, Depp said that the hardest thing about acting with Brando was trying to keep a straight face. I imagine Brando knew from the get go that the movie was a joke.
